The jmi lie will umlerstaml the esuw«*
which have made this post pom m nt neixs
miy,
»h- flamci'J panic, whldi fix the
last t"o mouths paralyzed the business of
every section of this countly and Europe,
h s prevented thousands from investing in
tickets. 'I he epidemics pervading almost
the entire South have cut off a large and
available market. And, too, the public
judgeing from the effect of these causes
have expected a postponement and have
declined to invest without a more positive
assurance of the drawing taking place on
a fixed day.
All interested desire a full drawing, but
for the reasons just stated this could not be
had on the 3d of December, but the short
postponement now announced Will secure
it.
The management have met with unpre
cedented success. The sales of tickets,
the proceeds which have dr udy been r *
ceived, amount to over a million of dol
lars, with a number of agencies in this
country yet to hear from, and all th- sc in
Europe.
Thus a drawing (scaling the gifts one
half) could be had now, but the manage
ment deem it best to have a postponement
and a full dr arcing'.
This postponement assures the sale of all
the tickets and A FULL DRAWING
That this determination will meet with the
approbation of nearly every one interested
is made apparent by the very numerous let
ters receivetl from every section o f this
country and the Canadas asking for a post
ponement.
This action of the management will w >rk
no detriment to any but will be for the
good of all. By it the fortunate ticket
holders will receive their gifts in full "bile
it will not affect these who do not draw
gifts.
In making tiis announcement the ma: -
agement emphatically state that there "ill
be no furthur postponement and to this
end all agents will be impcritatively requir
ed to close up and transmit their accounts
to this office by the 21st of March.
