Not two Blanks to a Prize
Subject to a dedu&ion of twelve and a halt per cent.
The public utility of extending this whart, is too evident to re
quire any comment, to those who are acquainted with the town
and harbour or New-Haven; to those who are not, fuffice it to fay,
that its beautiful situation is not furpafied, if equalled by any ; br
ing in the heart of a country, which may, with propriet\, be said
to be the garden of America. The harbour lays open to the found
but by reaion of the flats, this wharf is net_elTarily extended to the
channel, where ships can load and unload ; and when compleat
ed, will be the most extensive and commodious wharf in Amcrica,
the whole extent being about 3~4ths of a mile; and not only the
mercantile interest of New-Haven and the towns adjacent, but the
maritime intertft of all the States will be benefited by it. The
general wish that prevails in the minds of all clafTes of peopl •, for
the fucrefs of this enterprize, together with the very great advan

A lift of the fortunate numbers will be publiflied, and the prizes
