The grand i-ciple of these Hamburg Drawings ist a purchaser of 25 programes is guaranteed a prize, as it is so ■ drawn that a prize must come out to every 25 numbers, sad the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a large prize, as theie are • IGO large prizes against 80 ■ small ones. To any investc,; of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize,. and the head prize or any other may be dravn by any investor of ■ 10s. i The Company would not presume to , tell the public that they have a number I of chances and can win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10s. ■ The large bulk of the money in this Grand Frawing is not given away in one big prize, as it is in the horse consultations, but you will observe in this Hamburg Drawing that the £3,000 is fairly proportioned into 240 prizes, giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Hamburg Drawing is one of the moat novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, s > as to give entire public satisfaction, 1 This third grand drawing for £3,000 will take place under the supeiyision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
