The 20,000 prizes of $4, will be awarded to the odd or even numbers of the Lottery, (as the rase may ho) dependant on the drawing of the capital prize of $40,000—that ie to say, if l he 40,000 dollars prize should come ou to an odd number, rlien every odd number in the scheme will be entitled to a $4 prize. If the 40,000 dollar prize should come out to an even numbi r, then all the even num bers in the scheme will be each entitled to a prize of 4 dollars. The odd Numbers are those ending witl t , 3, 5, 7 or 9. The even Numbers are those ending with 2, 4, 6, 8 orO. This mode of drawing not only enables the Commissioners to complete the whole Lottery in one drawing, but has the great advantage of di tributing tho small prizes regularly to every nltenmte number in tho schemes, so that the holder of two tickets or two shares of tickets, (one odd and one t-ven number)will bo certain of obtaining at least one prize, and in the same ratio for any greater quantity. A ticket drawing a superior prize in this scheme, is not restricted from drawing an inferior one also—many tickets therefore, will necessarily obtain two prizes each. JAMES L. HAWKINS, 1 NATH. F.

SOUTHARD, Acting Secretary of the Treasury. May 12 42(b» Tile Albany Daily Advertiser lias publish ed a historical sketch ol'll.o F.ras in tlie pro- gress of the New-York Canal, from a work just published by M. Yates, tho Serretaiy of State. From this statement, we find that G. Morris gave the first hint of “tapping Lake Eric” in 1803. On the 4tli of Febru ary. 1803, the first legislalive proceedings took place on the subject! while (he firsk law establishing a Canal Fund, and direc ting the Canal to be commenced, was pass ed on the 15th of April, 1317. On the 4th of July following, the first excavation was made. During the first season, 15 miles were completed. From January, 11118, to January, 1819,117 miles were completed ; and in October of the same year, the whole middle aection being completed, on tne 23d the Canal was opened and nnvignled by Commissioners, from Utica to Romo. In December, l8l9,theChampisin Canal was ITkiished and navigated. The first toll token on the Erie Canal, was on 1st of July, 1320, Outlie 1st of September, 1822, the groat dam at Fort Edward was finished, su that a continuous sheet of 9u0 feet of warier runs over the whulo length of that stupendous structure. On tlie loth of October billow ing, the Canul was filled with water between Rochester and Briilport; and tlie aqueduct over Genesee river, 802 feet long, slid con taining eleven arclieB, wns completed. In October, 1823, two stupendous aqueducts bom Albany and Schenectady, 1892 feet Ions, and containing 29 locks, were finished; and oil the 8th of the sumo moth, Ihe first boat passed from the West and the North, tlirongh the Canal, into the tide-waters of the Hudsun, nt Albany. In 18-21 only 10 boats passed on the Chain plain Canal; in 1823, they exceeded 100 — The debt due, lur constructing the Canals, at the close of 1824, was $7,467,770 90.— The duties on sa were $106,000 j and th* total excess uf revenue above the interest of the debt was $300,000. During 1824, 10,- 000 boats passed at the function of tlie Eri*. and Champlain Cannls. Boats with mer chandise travel about 56 miles in 22 hours; those with passengers, go at the rate of 4 miles an hour. There are 300 bridges a* cross the Canal, between Utica and Albany and 80 between Utica and Little Fails.— A boat can pas9 a lock a lock in 6 minutes; and 108 in a day; and the average, last year, was 40. Present dybt estimated at $7,700,000; income ol canal fund $880,000. -Tolls received iu 1824, $5,437 34 Du. do. 1821, 23,000 00 l)o. do. 18-22, 67,160 39 Do. do. 18-23, 105,037 36 Do. do. 1824, 294,548 62 Add for Champlain Canal, 46,214 45 $531,396 15 It Is estimated that, in 1838, the income from the toll will be 1,000,000 dollars, and. the population of Ihe State 2,000,000 souls. The whole length of the Erie Canal is 353 miie9 ; that ot'the Champlain Canal 61 mile* At present it is calculated that the Cana) enn be navigated about 220 days in the year i and it is supposed, when the forests are cut down, and the iinprnveitients of the country shall have meliorated the climate, it will be increased to 250 or 2ft5 days.— The boats which navigate the canuls are from 35 to 45 tuns. More thau 500.000 bustle's of water-proof lime were used in building the canal. It is computed that the total cost of the canals, when completed including the satisfaction for ail claims for damages, will be $10,123,789; and that ten years will suffice to cancel the debt. Til* principal Engineers, employed on the Erie and r.iiuinplnin Canals, have been, through, out the whole period which has been occu pied in the construction of these works, n» live ritizene, with the unimportant exception of one French and one Irish gentleman, who were each employed one year in making some preliminary examinations. The reflections which these facts gnggest are highly honourable to our national in. dustry and enterprise ; and the success which has crowned this gigantic effort of" mental and bodily oxertion, is the greatest inducement to simliar works of public utility. S a i. isn on o, Ju no 21—Gold Speculation We learn, that within n tew weeks, past certain " knowing ones" from Connecticut have visited the Gold Mines in Montgomery county, and have succeeded in obtaining /cnsMofsomcofthe less valuable ones, fop the term of ninety-nine years. Since the departure ofthese lessees, some of the h'S. sors, if not all of them, have discovered tl at they have been “ taken in,” and they evince no little dissatisfaction on account of it. It appears that these - knowing ones' repre sented themselves as the agents of an exis- ting company in Connerlicut, with ample funds, associating for the purpose of work ing the mines in North-Carolina s thot they had been at the mines in South America, and possess great skill and art in finding the precious metuls ; that they intended impor ting a number of miners from South Ameri ca and Europe, and to carry on the business with extensive machinery, steam-engines, and other extensive fixments, that, with all these contrivances, they will be enabled to find not less than from 500 to a 1000 penny, weights of gold per day—Sic. Sic. by artful representations ufthis kind, they have succeeded in obtaining leases of some of the mines on terms very favorable to them selves. It is believed, however, that these men have overacted their parts i and that all these contracts, if desired, may be dis solved, on the grounds that unfuir and un. due means were used to effect them. It is suspected by some, that the only view these men have in obtaining the leas es, is to sell out again; and, by a speculation of this kind, to turn their cunning to goud account. If this be the fact, it wou Id b* well for the lawyears at the north to bewara, least they, in buying gold mines, “nay dear for their whistle."
