soften the cares, and soothe the sorrows of life, yet they
have never neglected any proper and decent opportunity of
advancing the publick good:--When the Ladies found that
Government had established a Lottery to ease the taxes of the
people, they generally became adventurers, and it is pleasing
to find that this their Patriotism has been in some measure
rewarded, by _their sex_ sharing the FIRST CAPITAL PRIZE.
