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.
