The public utility of extending this wharf, is too evident to re
quire any comment, to those wl.o are acquainted with the town
nnd harbour of New-Haven; tr> those who are not, fufftcc it to fay,
'hat its beautiful situation is no: furpaflcd, if equalled by any; be
ing in the heart of a country, which may, with propriety, be said
to be the garden of America. The harbour lays open to the found
but by realon of the flats, this vharf is neccffarily extended to the
channel, where (hips can load and unload ; and when compleat
ed, will be the moll extensive and commodious wharf in America,
the whole extent being about £-4ths of a mile; and not only the
mercantile intereil of New-Ha»en and the towns adjacent, but the
maritime intereftof all the States will be benefited by it. The
general wish that prevails in the minds of all daffcs of people, for
the success of this enterprize, together with the very great advan
tage which this scheme holds out to adventurers (there being more
capital prizes for the number of tickets than any yet publiQied in
America) induce the managers to believe the tickets wiJl meet with
a fpcedy falc.
The drawing will positively commence at the Stnte-Koufe, in
New-Haven, on the 13th of September next, or sooner, if the
tickets are fold.
A 1 ift of the fortunate numbers will be publilhed, and the prizes
paid 011 demand, by the managers. Those prizes not called for in
nine months after drawing, will be deemed as generously given
for the ufc ot the wharf, and appropriated accordingly.
