fortunate numbers are not pioduccd within
twelve months after the dtawing.is closed are

fettle the whole bufinefi in a yeai from the
ending of the drawing and to take up the
bond' given esfecunty.
The real feeurities given for the payment
of the Prizes, are he'd by the President and
two Direflors of the Bank of Columbii,and
are ralued at'more than half the amount of
theLott-ty.
The twenty four g;ntlem;n who by ap

in the management of the Hotel Lottery are
requested to undertake thii arduous talk a fe
•ond tirae on behalf of the public ; a fuffici
- ent number of these having kindly accepted,
it is hoped that the friends to a National Uni
"• V erCty and the other federal obje&s may con
tinue to favor the design. The fynopfts of
one of the Colleges, to form a branch of the
National Institution, is already in the prel's,

its constitution. _j: —
A compleatJ , LAN of the whole of this

ever the fame may have gons through such
revisions as -.iay be nccelfary to establish th«
perfeift confidence and general approbation, .
so essential to itsprefent rife and future exis
tence for the general good of America.
By accounts from the different
parts of the Continent as well at from Eu
rope, where the tickets have beep sent for
falc, the public are aflured that the drawing
■will speedily commence, and that the care
and caution unavoidably to insure a
fife disposal of thf tickets, has rendered the
fcort fufpenfton indispensable.
