All prizes not demanded within 12 months after draw

The above Lottery is authorized by an act of the Legis

Trustees of the Newton Academy near the town of
Vslieville, tocompleat the necessary buildings belonging
:o the same And also to establish a Female Academy r
ihe town of Aslieville.
Which two objects the Trustees and Managers flatter
t'uemselvcs will be a sufficient inducement, independent
ofthe flattering prospect held Qutinthe above SCHEME,
to influence all zealous friends to useful Institutions to be
come liberal purchasers of tickets And they deem it
unnecessary to expatiate largely in contrasting the advan
tages t'aesc institutions may have (if well supported with
friends) over most other Seminaries For it is now
very generally known that Asheville is one of the most
healthy situations en this continent and lying in the
neighbourhood of the Warm Springs, and on the main road
from 1 hence, (as well as from the Western to the Southern
States)is more generally resorted to by the best characters
of both sexes during Summer and Autumn, (for the bene
fit of healib)lhan almost any other place in the Southern
section ofthe Union And being also a place where board
and Tuition are had on very moderate terms Where the
Youths ofthe sister states will lay the foundation of sound
constitutions together with their Educations, and receive
the visits of their friends to and from the Warm Springs.
All these advantages united bear if viderit testimony of
the elegibility of Asheville as a seat for Literary Insti
tutions And therefore on these self-evident grounds, we
respecuuuy soutu uie puouc patronage

Raleigh Academy.
THE Trustees ofthe Raleigh Academy have the ploa
sure to inform the public, that they hare engaged
tlie Rev. William M'Pm bbt a as, from Virginia, a gen
tleman eminently qualified for the undertaking, to become
the Principal of Dm: Academy and Pastor of the City, and
that he will certainly enter upon these important duties on
or about the first of Maj next.
The Trustees are hiirhly (ratified at the arranrementa
now made fur the future instruction of Uie Students of
Uns Academy, as they are convinced that scarcely any Se
minary of Learning in the Union offers greater advantages
to Youth of both sexes.
The Female Department is under the care of Mrs.
8ambovbhe, who instructs tie Young Ladies in Music,
Drawing, Painting, and every kind of Ornamental and
Plain Needle-Work. Other branc hes of Education, such
as Natural and Moral Philosophy, Astronomy, Geography,
History, English Grammar, Reading, Writing, and Arith
metic, are taught them by the Principal and Assistant
Teachers. This is a course lately adopted in Uie Acade.
my, from which, it is believed, great advantages will be
derived by the Female Students.
The first half Session of the Academy will close on the
16lh instant, and the second commence on the 19th.

It has been reported that large reinforce
ments ot troops are going to Halifax. We
know not why the report has been circulated,
unless it be to increase the irritation of the U.
States against us. There is no foundation for
the rumour. The defence of Canada and No
va Scotia is already amply provided for. The
troops now going out are destined to Portugal,
which, it is understood, Lord Wellington feels
conscious he can defend against the er.tmy, at
least for a considerable time. Courier.
The India ships which arrived at Ports
mouth, have brought intelligence from Madras
whith tranquilizis the minds of those who
wtre so alarmed by the reports of the insubor
dination of the troops ; which had led to disa
greeable consequences, and that seveial acts of
violence had been committed. There have
been no disturbances of a serious nature. Lord
Minto had left Bengal and proceeded to Ma
dras, to confer with sir George Barlow, who
had not found it necessary to quit the seat of
his government, though, as a measure of pre
caution, he had taken up his residence at the
government house in the fortress. .
It is now understood that no extraordinary
additional force will be sent to India. The
number of troops about to be sent there do
not exceed 3,000 men.

from France are those which America' wants, .
and which for the most part have been in
the habit of supphir.g hrr widy It may be
said, too,, that the relaxation of the edicts with"1
respect to neutrals, may open the door to the
relaxation, if not to the entire repeal, of the
Berlin and Milan decrees. And this w ill b
done if Bonaparte means really to favour the
American trade ; and if he dors not, under the ;
pretext of favouring her trade, means only to
embroil her with us, b holding' out 'advantage'

proceeded to a Dutch port, (after landing a pas

she will wait for general Armstrong's answer.
It is also said she carries to Holland the an
