UNPARALLELED success of these Grand Drawings, as they are carried out on the same principle as in Hamburg and other Continental Cities. The Mrst Drawing for £2OOO, and the Second Drawing for £3OOO filled before tha advertised time for Drawing. The Company were induced to make thii Third Grand Drawing for £3OOO, in consequence of the Great Success, and also the confidence gainedf rom the public einceopening these Hamburg Drawings. This Third Grand Drawing will take plaoe not later than the end of JUNE, and the Fourth Drawing will open on the Ist July. Late applications are registered for the Third Drawing. Over 550 applications for programmes are now registered for the Third Drawing. This Third Grand Drawing will consist of 240 Monev Prizes, amounting to £3OOO, subscribed by 6000 members at 10s each. The various Money Prizes will be distributed as follows : 1 £3OO Prize 10 £25 Prizes 1 £l5O Prize 10 £2O Prizes 1 £IOO Prize 10 £ls Prizes 2 £SO Prizes 120 £lO Prizes 5 £3O Prizes 80 £5 Prizeß Totai Amount, £3OOO. 240 Monet Pbizeb. The Grand Principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a- purchaser of 25 Programmes is Guaranteed a Prize, ss it is so drawn that a prize must come out to every 25 numbers, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawmg a large prize, as there are 160 large prizes against 80 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Prize or any other ma) be drawn by any investor of 10s. 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. The large bulk of the money in this Grand Drawing 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 £3COO is fairly proportioned into 240 Prizes, giving every Shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Third Grand Drawing is one of the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, eo as to give entir« public satisfaction. This Third Grand Drawing for £3OOO will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
