To be Drawn at Cincinnati, Oh.o, ON MONDAY, JANUARY 2 ; 1&G0. THE great favci; with which my Grand Annual Gifi Distribution, (tli aw ii December, was received, and the fact that I was unable at that time to supply near all tiie lionets that were desired, has determined me to prepare a scheme that surpasses in magnificence anything that has heretofore been attempted, and affording belter chances to the ticket holders to do well, than could possibly be given in a scheme ol les& dimensions. AIL money received win be deposited in bank by the projector, until alter tlie drawing, and will be returned to the persons sending it, if everything dues not IaAC place as advertised. Persons who desire, can deposit their money in sums of fifty dollars and upwards with H. Plume 6c Co., a well-known and responsible jewelry linn in this city, who have consented to retain and take chaige of all sums deposited with them until after tlie drawing. The total value of prizes to be distributed is One Hundred Thousand Dollars, and the number of prizes is Five Thousand, and the whole number of tickets being Twenty Thousand, there is consequently one chance in every four tickets. The drawing, as above stated, will take place on Monday, tlie £d day of January. in a public hail in Cincinnati, and all the tick-et-holders who can possibly be present are earnestly requested to attend. The capital prize is the residence built and occupied by myseli in Covington, Ky., opposite Cincinnati, (being the handsomest and nest arranged dwell- ! ing in the city,) with grounds belonging thereto. It is fitted up with all the modern appliances of bathI room, steam‘healing appliances, gas pipes throughj out, with the machinery for manufacturing gas withI out trouble, and at a trifling expense. In fact, it | combines everything most desirable in a residence; is ! situated on rising ground in lhc suburbs of Covingi ton, commanding a beautiful view of both cities, and j uniting the advantages of both town and country. I'he Farm of three hundred and twenty acre 3 is beautifuliy located in Crawford county. Mo., in a region ’unsurpassed for health by any in the Union, between the Iron Mountain ami South-western Branch Railroad, andJmt a few miles distant from each. The Carriage” is one I had made expressly for my ; family u»e, of the best materials, and with the most I substantial workmanship, and cannot be surpassed jby any in the Union. It has had ahjut a month’s serj vice—just enough io test its good qualities. The j horses are in accordance with tlie carriage, being I iiiiaichiff. spirited and docile, and beautifully made j animals, and the harness is a set of the best silvermounted that could be made The price (one thousand dollars) at which this entire turn out is put up, is much less than it cost to me, anti would be a bargain for cash. There are fifteen hundred prizes of American Gold in the scheme, in sums ranging from five to one thousand dollars each, which speak for themselves. The three Buggies and Horses, with silver-mount-ed harness. worth four hundred dollars, are splendid prizes. Tlie horses are goml, and the buggies from the establishment ol 1. & B. Bruce & Co., Cincinnati, one .of the first manufacturers in the city. The four Pianos, worth five hundred and four hun dred dollars each, have been selected by a competent judge from tlie largest stock in the West, and arc pro nounced very superior. They are all of the make of Bighte, Newton di Bradbury, of New York City, which.arc considered by competent judges to be the best now in use, and are put hi the scheme at manufacturer’s prices They can be seen at the store of C. M. Murch,74 West Fourth street, Cincinnati, O. There are twenty of Singer’s Sewing Machines, which arc acknowledged by all to beihe best now in use. They are put in the scheme at the prices at which they are furnished by I. M. Singer <fc Co. themselves, and Tange from seventy-live to one hundred and thirty one dollars each. The e are.twelve hundred Watches in the scheme, all hunting levers, and ranging in price from twenty dollars up to tlie Gold Chronometer Wath and Chain, worth two hundred dollars.

CHICAGO PRESS & TRIBUNE, FOR THE YEAR lgGOs Devoted to News, Commerce, Politics, Agriculture, Art, Science ond Literature. r ['HE WEEKLY PRESS AND TRIBUNE f is a Urge first-class Western newspaper, published every Thursday morning. It is filled with valuable and entertaining matter prepared expressly for Western readers. Its editorials deal vigorously with all topics of the times, and it boldly advocates those measures und principles deemed most calculated to promote the general welfare. In price and size of sheet, freshness and amount of intelligence, variety and value of information, fullness and accuracy oi commercial matter, and in whatever else goes to make up a first-class newspaper, we challenge comparison with any other journal East or West. POLITICAL ISSUES. Wo are ontering on a year that will be memorable in the annals of American politics—the year that will witness, we trust, the election of a Republican President and the national triumph of Republican principles. The great issues to be submitted to a majority of tho whole people are these: Shall slavery be extended and protected by the General Government? Shall the public domain—the free Territories of the nation — be surrendered to the blighting intrusien ol slavery? Shall the Constitution be construed to recognize and su port slavery as a national institution? Shall a slave code for the Territories bo enacted? Shull the African slave-trade bo reopened? In short, shall the doctrines of Calhoun, JudgrTTuiey and Buchanan supercede the principles of Free Government taught by Jefferson, j Madison and Clay? These questions will demand a verdict at the hands of tho American j people. I And there are other important considerations to be decided by the next campaign. Among 1 these are Free Homesteads for the landless, improvement of rivers and harbors, a Railroad to the Pacific on the central route, encouragement of the manufacturing and farming industry of the country, retrenchment and reform in the Federal expenses—a restoration, in fact, of the ■ spiri»; simplicity and policy of the earlier and purer days of the Repith ic. i On all those questions and issues the Press and : Tribune will occupy no neutral ground, but will ever be found an earn os l champion on the side that will promote Fkeemom, Progress and Prosperity. GENERAL CONTENTS. The Literary and Miscellaneous matter is prepared with a view to making the paper a welcome family visitor, combining the agrceablo and useful. A considerable amount of space is devoted to matters pertaining to Agriculture, such as publishing reports ot Fairs, Farmers and fruitgrowers’ Conventions, crop prospects and statistics, improved implements for farm use, and all other tilings of general interest to farmers. Every issue of this paper contains a condensed review of the week, including the leading events happening in Europe and the United States, and the rest of the world.
