The money will be returned for the large number of applications that came too late for the first drawing, or programmes will be forwarded for Second Drawing. The Second Dbawing- is now open, for the grand and equal distribution of Money Prizes, amounting to to be drawn the Bame as in the Hambtirg and other Continental Cities. This Second Drawing will take place not later than the end of AfBIL, or earlier if filled, and the Third Drawing will open Ist May. These Grand Drawings will take place every two months. Over 3000 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 consist of 240 Money Pbizes, amounting to £3000, subscribed by 6000 members at 10s each. The various Money Pbizes will be distributed hs follows :■ — 1 £300 PRIZE 4 £25 PRIZES 1 £150 PRIZE 20 £20 PRIZES 1 £100 PRIZE 20 £15 PRIZES 2 £60 PRIZES 65 £10 PRIZES 10 £30 PRIZES 116 £5 PRIZES ! Total Amount, £3000. 240 Money Pbizes. ——« The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Pbize, as it is so 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 -against 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 10s. The large bulk of the Money in this Qrand Drawing is not given away in oae big prize, as it is in the Horse Consultations, but you will observe in this Hamburg Drawing that the £3000 is fairly proportioned into 240 Pbizes, giviDg every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. Thu Hamburg Drawing is on the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, so as to give entire public satisfaction This Second Drawing for £30C0 will take placd under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as poss ble after the drawing.
