The Agents Of the Managers, in offering the
tickets OF the Jberson Lottery to the public, feel
a confidence, that they will be Immediately pur-
chased up, and the only child Of che late Mr.
Jefferson and her family, be relieved from the
painful consequences which must inevitably and
speedily follow, if the debts are not discharged.
The Agents having engaged to prepare the tick
ets,and to conduct the Jefferson Lotterythrough-
ont, without compensation for services or expen-
ses and being, at the same time, extremely So
ctous, that tie entire amount Of the Scheme
should be speedily raised and paid over to the
Managers, without the loss or diIninution OF a
cent, they must run no other hazard, than such
as they choose to volunteer to do for the benefit
of the Jefferson Fund; and they therefore pray
that applications for tickets be promptly made,
and that all remittanccs be made, i'll funds Bank
dJle at the place whepe the orders for tickeas are
to be executed. As for credits in this Lottery,
they can give none, and it is presumed that none
will be desired, The funds for these tickets
shall be kept sacred, and distinct from all other
funds and the Managers be advised to draw
them from time to TING. as they accumulate, to
answer the objects the grant.


| The Venders oftckets throughout the Union,
it is hoped, will lend their willing aid in the sale
of these tickets. and by that means afford an
opportunity to the thousands in all parts of the
country, who anxious to testify then respect,
their affection and gratitude to the memory OF
the iliustrious dead


The prizes, it will be perceived, have been
valued under oath by gentlemen appointed by
the Virginia Legislature ALL then, who adven
turc for prizes, will have the full value of thcil
money in the chance or chances which they may
purchase Bnt higher motives than the mere
value Of prizes will actuatc all who have known
or heard Of the public Or private worth Of the
man who rote our Declaration of Independence
II cannot for q moment be supposed, that any
will be found so heartless, as to say, that since
! Mr. Jefferson is dead, thel feel themselves unde
no obligations to his descendants, and that altho
they would have been willing 10 relieve Tim
whilst living, they care not what become Of hi
offspring. No: it cannot, A magnanimous,
grateful people will spurn such sentiment, n
utterly unworthy of them


The tickets in the JeGerSon Lottery had beel
prepared in April last but the offering of then
for sale was postponed, at the request ofthe Cit
liens of n. York; appointed with the view Q
raising funds sufficient to purchase up the Lotto
ry, burn the tickets on the day Of our Jubilee
and supersede the drawing Of the Lottery alto
gether. That noble and heart-cheering pla


failed in part, and the tick cts must now therefor
, be sold, and the Lottery be drawn. 1t is said


however, that the funds raised, and expected t


be raised, in the U. States, (exclusive of thos
for tickets will be sufficient to purchase til
r Monticello Prize, from the fortunate holder


the ticket drawingit, and thus preserve that F.
tate for the Descendants Of the Author Of tn
o Declaration of independence. We caunot bl
c hope, and believe, that an act so necessary ft
r the honour of the Country, will be accomplish


ed
