By this scheme at leajl the amount of the tick

yet the federal City will gain its objett thereby')
in a magnificent building designed both for pub
lic and private convenience.
Although some expence must neceflarily at
tend the conducing of the lottery, (which ex
pence will be taken from the principal prize) the
CommiflTioners having agreed to preferit in re
turn a fufficient quantity of excellent free-ftone»
togeiher with the best adapted lots for the hotel
and for the out-houfes, the value of the lottery
entire may be fairly rated at something more than
p(}r: In this important instance it will be found,
on examination, to exceed all the lotteries that
have ever been offcied to the Public in this or
perhaps in any other country. The keys of the
Hotel, when compleat, will be delivered to the
fortunate podeflor of the ticket drawn aagainfl
its number.—All the other prizes will be paid,
without deduction, in one month after the diawing y by

Treasurer of Washington ; Thayer S3 Bartlet, of
Charleston, South-Carolina ; Gideon Denijon, Sa
vannah ; Meffi s. James Wejl & Co. Baltimore;

places as will be hereafter published.
N. B. ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS will
be given for the best Plan of an elegant and con
venient HOTEL or INN, with hot and cold
Baths, Stables, and other out houses, if presented
on or before the 10th »f April next; and a pre

back avenue to the stables, &c. Se&ions and
estimates of the expense will be expected
