LOTTERY INTELLIGENCE:
We are informed that the gentleman who drew the
1*5,000 dollar prize, in the Canal Lottery, -was the
i proprietor of only a single Ticket—This in si ance of
good fortune, shews thatSt is well to be in Fortune's
road ; and is the more pleaftng, as the owner of the
prize is a very worthy, though not a very affluent ci
tizen.
The Scheme of tJie Canal Lottery is certainly one
of the heft which lias appeared—for, independsnt of
the ufeful objeifls to which its proceeds are to be ap
plied, the feheme is so calculated as to continual]/en
hance the value of the Tickets remaining in the wheel;
because, while the drawing progreflbs, the clnnce of
a capital prize growing greater, mufl increase the va
lue of the undrawn-Ticket.
The Prizes drawn to the close of the drawing en ,
last Wedaefday Evening, were
I of 15,000

And ? stationary prizes of 20,000 dollars each ; by
which, and the nature of thole 5 stationary prizes,
which are to belosg to the five last drawn tickets, it
will be found, that an undrawn ticket was' yefteiday
morning, worth nearly 11 1-1 dollars, which; at
the beginning, was worth no more than 10 dollars —
and so the undrawn tickets must continue to merest
in valae, as fall as the drawing proceeds : And this
circumstance will account for the number of Graces
which are opened for the sale of Tickets, as the ,~n>
fiis mull be daily increafinr; and in a few days a
Ticket now felling at 11 dollars, will no doubt com
mand 15 dollars, and must continue to jet higher 23
the drawing approximates to the five stationary prizes
of jO,OOO dollars each. S
