--> THE above Class will _positively_ commence drawing in the
REPRESENTATIVES' CHAMBER, in BOSTON, on THURSDAY, 13th November next, and will continue from day to day, and be _completed_ with all _possible dispatch._ A list of Prizes will be _immediately_ published, and the Prizes paid _on demand._ The Managers believe it enough, to induce the Public to become Adventurers, to inform them, that the object of this _Lottery_ is to erect a new Building, at the UNIVERSITY in Cambridge, for the further accommodation of the Students. The Friends of literature are to be found every where, and when its cause can be served, and a _good chance_ for personal emolument at the same time presents itself; this double inducement, it is conceived, _must_ operate in favor of the Lottery. The Managers of this Lottery, had the conducting of the late State Lottery--the Public will do them the justice to say, that the _strictest punctuality_ as to the time fixed for Drawing, and in the payment of Prizes, was observed by them in that Lottery--they pledge themselves for the same punctuality in this.
