The Sbcosd Dbawing is now open, for the grand and equal distribution of Money Prizes, amounting to £3000, to be drawn the same as in the Hamburg and other Coti' tinental Cities. This Second Drawing will take place not later than the end of Apbii, or earlier if filled, and the Third Drawing will open Ist May. These Grand Drawings will take place every two months. Over 900 applications for programmes are now registered for the Second Drawing. The Company were induced to make this Second Drawing for £3000, in consequence of the first drawing having filled so rapidly, also to enable them to give larger prizes. This Second Grand Drawing will cossiat of 240 Money Phizes, amounting to £3000. subscribed by 6000 members at 10s each.

The Grand principle of these Hamburg Draioings is that a purchaser of 25 JPro- i grammes is guaranteed a Pbize, as it is to drawn that a prize must come out to every 25 numbers, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 124 large prizes again-t 116 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Pbize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10*. • i The large bulk of the Money io this J Qrand Drawing is not given away in oae b:g prize, as it is in the Horse Comultations, but you will observe in this Hamburg Drawing that the £3000 « fairly proportioned into 240 Pbizks, giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. Thia Hamburg Drawing is on the most novel, and will be conducted on tbe fairest principle possible s bo as to give enl ire public satisfaction This Second Drawing for £3000 will take place under tbe supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as poss ble after the drawing.
