We are informed that the gentleman who drew the r'S,OOO dollar prize, in the Canal Lottery, was the proprietor of only a single Ticket—This in fiance of good fortune, shews that it is well to be in Fortune's road and is the more pleafmg, as the owner of the prize is a very worthy, though not a very affluent ci tizen. The Schemc of the Canal Lottery is certainly one of the heft which has appeared—for, independent of the iifeful objects to which its proceeds are to be ap plied, the fciieme is f» calculated as to continually en hance the value of the Tickets remaining in the wheel; because, while the drawing the cii'.nce of a capital prize growing greater, muil increase the va lue of the undrawn Ticket.
