Amount, £4000. 320 Money Pbizes. The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 JProgrammes is guaranteed a Fbize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a labge Peizk, as there are 220 iabge Peizes to 100 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Peizb or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10s. Read this Carefuily.—En JBoaz's Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 aguiust an investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note some of the Hone Consultations on the Melbourne Cup, advertising 20,000 members at 10s each, equal to £10,000. The Cup gives 133 nominations, bo that the odds are over 150 to 1 against an investor drawing a horee. Now lake the Cash PEIZES drawn at the same time, and calculate the odds ; you will find in each of the Cash awards that the odds vary from 200 to 5000 to 1 against an investor drawing a Cash Peize. The whole 20,00.0 marbles are advertised to be replaced for each Drawing of the Cash Pkizes, which give the enormous odds against investors. The Company would simply ask investors to calculate the odds before placing their investments in any horse consultation ; and the Company would not presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances and can win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10s. This Fifth Grand Drawing for £4000 will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early aa possible after the drawing.
