TICKETS ONE DOLLAR EACH. □St Z’rlsz© ■vcrl'tlx every 'Ptolr o-t. PROSPECTUS. A number of the leading Bankers and Merchants of New York, in consideration of the great success which has attended many of the Charitable Presentation Entertainments of the day, have formed themselves into a company, with the view of inaugurating an enterprise whi< - h, while it shall return them a fair profit, shall offer greater advantages to ticket purchasers than any yet presenter!: and which being conducted upon a perfectly legitimate and business basis, shall be free from those objectionable features which have characterized many of these euterdrises. To his end they have consigned the sale of tickets and the registering of the same, to Clark, W ebster & Co;, Bankers and Managers, No. 62 Broadway. New York, who will keep the records in their custody until the day of the Grand Presentation Entertainment, when they will be handed over to a committee selected by the audience to make an impartial distribution of Presents. A reference to the number of presents and the general plan of distribution, given below, will convince even the most skeptical of the great advantages winch will accrue to all who participate in the enterprise; and the Commercial and Financial star ding of the Company, and the Managers and Bankers thereof, will they hope, proven sufficient guaranty of the fairness and’impartiality with which everything in connection with it will be conducted, and that the I interests of ticket holders will be most strictly watched over and guarded. In ; fact, it is the desire of the Managers to conduct every transaction for the mutual benefit of whoever shall puschase a ticket, nnd scrupulously to avoid any and everything which could in the slightest degree diminish the profits which are likely to accrue to all who invest.
