appeared, for that most excruciating pain
the tooth-ach. The numerous instances
of its happy effeils in relieving the afflict

ach, but is of the utmost service in cur

the disagreeable smell that proceeds from
unfeund teeth, and occasioning a sweet

in your paper of the 3d instant, I ftiould re
main silent Iroma convidtioj), that all par
ties cue liable to fuffer in ttte folly of a news
paper controversy.
The fcheme.s for the fir ft and f< cond Lot
teries were firff publilhed by desire of the
commiflioners, after they had sent an ex
press to Annapolis, to afcertaiu the legally
ty of the measure, which a law of the flat
questionable. The following
extracts from their fetters willlhew the re
sult of their inquiry.
Dated Jan* 6, 1793.
" This afternoon the return of our mef
feriger furnifhed us with a copy of the late
a& of this state ; we have the pleasure to
find that thepropofed Lottery will not fall
within it j so that you have our permiflion,
with the previous approbation of the Presi
dent, to project, plan, and propose it as foC*)
as you please."
Signed by the three Commiffioneri.
Extra fl from Mr. Carroll 9 s letter, Jan. 6.
li It gave us aLI very great pleasure to
find that the law did not prevent us £rom
carryigg into execution the intended Lot
tery, as it does riot commence till the firft
of June, and any time which may be tho't
proper, can be taken for the completion of
it. The important ejfetts from this, as Icell a*
from futuie Lotteries must be evident? 1
As it became legally necessary, I receiv
ed the advise of the commiffinners to pub
lilh the second Lottery, in May 1793, arK '
informed them of my having made a sale
of tickets prior to the firft of June. The
pub] cation of the two Lotteries has con
tinued moll of the time since, in either the
Annapolis or Baltimore papers, under the
eye of the Commiflioners, and the adver
tifenient annexed to the febeme, as publiih
ed in Mr. Fenno's and Messrs. Angell and
Sullivan's papers, I have by ma in the hand
writiug of Mr. Johnson. lam as sorry to
find he has so soon forgot a child of his own,
as I am that the commiflioners lhould wait
till more than twelve months have expirefl
before they offered their objections to ei
ther Lottery. This is unfortunate for them
since it has left ground for suspicion, at least
refjJefting the true cause of their present
advertisement—which I believe to origi
nate in a pique, or party fpiiitonly, ; and
have the following reasons in support ofmy
belief:
£oU William Deaktns and nvyfeif" gave
our bonds for a due performance of our
trust—but no idea of a collateral lecilrity
ever even hinted, till an unfortfinate
misunderstanding arose refpe&ing an im
portant sale ot the public Lands.
A? commiflioner of sales, and as a donor
dfthe public lands, it became my duty in
a double capacity to state my objefiions,
with those of most of the other city prd
prietors, which not having the weight we
expected, I resigned from disgust, my office
of fupcrvifor, and commUfioner ot'falei.
But at the rcqueft of some rei'pectable
proprietors, I agreed with the commiflion
v-rs to aft as an occasional agent for the city
£Tovjderf that no pay fltpwklj c; annexed to
th »4ployment, in which I ftiil continnc.
ADvui LiiW-ume :;i_, , in conieqncnce ot
our mi u»tfin.c<T~ : mt f to ten
der collateral ftcjsTOjrt&*the Comm-flion
ers, this being accepted, they wiote me the
following letter, viz.
Walhington, January 27, 1794.
SIR,
" We have written to the Secretary of
State, th-ough him informing the Piefident
that you lave made us anxftfer of more am
ple security than what we thought fuffici
ent, ank kave accepted for the payment of
prizes. Through him ive hatealfo informed
the Prcjidert of our sentiments in favor of the
fee on d Lottery."
From th» then advanced state of the two
lotteries, IdefiredMr. Johnfoo, one of the
comm:ffion«rs, to draw the bond and mort
gage for both in one, and as his legal know
ledge has never been questioned, I can
scarcely believe that there was any defici
ency/Vow ignorance.
Bat if there should be any intentional ne
gleit, or any other error in the cafe, the
publication to alarm by way of complaint
prttf to any requcjl made either direttly or indi
redly to me > in order that the deficiency may
befupplied, is indeed cruel--becaufe there

pinion, having pledged rafter 011 the
fuceefs of this favourite plan, viz. the build
ing of fix elegant houses by an easy mode,
and in part by foreign funds.
Yet, »f I may judge b\ letters from the pro
prietors of the City of Washington, by pub
lications in the Columbia papers, or by the
continued success of the Lottery*—the Com
miflioners have miffed their aim enlirelv.—
1 he Piefident of the Bank of Columbia, hav
ing kindly offered to receive my bonds and
(ocuriiy on behalf of the pnblic, I return
him my grateful acknowledgements for this
aft of justice and charity.
If the Commiflioners instead of an unwar
rantable iiHe£lation of doubt, will name a
day when they really Wish to effect a transfer
they will be freed at once from every kind
of concern in either Lottery. lam told two
of these gentlemen in conference of the dil
agrcement with the proprietors, have sent
in their resignation to the Piefident—if so, it :
is perhaps incumbent on them to relieve
themselves From their real or pretended bur
then as early as pofllble. I have now only
to allure the Public and the Proprietors, that
