Opinions of the Press. “Musical Festivals” several times postponed, ompelling purchasers of tickets to wait months c or the distribution, has impaired public confidence fn such affairs. The only fair system of distribu tion is the old aud popular one of Sealed Tickets, stating the prize, which will be delivered immedi ately, on payment of the one dollar. That is the plan of 11. BARTON & CO., at 599 Broadway, the most attractive place of the kind now in oper ation. They are doing the largest business, aud deserve their success. Yon cap not draw a SIOO ,000 farm there, but have a reasonable chance for a good prize, as we know many that have boon drawn, and the firm is reliable.— Morning Adcer titer, Oct. 25M, 1867. The New York Gift Company are distributing many valuable prizes. We nave examined their manner of doing business and kuow them to be a fair dealing firm. Their plan is more satisfactory than “Presentation Festivals,” as they draw every day, and the subscriber need not pay for the prize drawn, unless suited.— Gazette , Oct. ~\fh. 1867. The Gift establishment of II Barton & Cos., at 599 Broadway, is daily attracting crowds of visi tors to witness the drawing process. The invest ment is bat 25 cents for the chance, and the prize drawn, if satisfactory, is immediately delivered for one dollar.
