FORTUNE’S ANGLERS: 

A NEW LOTTERY SONG.

TUNE—­“There are sweepers in high life as well as in
low.”

In the fish pond of fortune men angle always,
Some angle for titles, some angle for praise,
Some angle for favor, some angle for wives,
And some angle for nought all the days of their lives: 
Ye who’d angle for Wealth, and would Fortunes obtain,
Get your hooks baited by Kidder, Gilbert & Dean. 
Some angle for pleasure, some angle for pain,
Some angle for trifles, some angle for gain,
Some angle for glory, some angle for strife,
Some angle to make themselves happy for life: 
Ye who’d angle, &c.
Some angle for wit, and some angle for fame,
Some angle for nonsense, and some e’en for shame,
Some angle for horses, some angle for hounds,
For angling’s infinite, it never new bounds: 
Ye who’d angle, &c.

G. & D. and W. & T.K. for the accommodation of those who purchase Tickets of them, keep Daily Lists of Prizes and Blanks, and a complete statement of the wheels, which can be examined at the close of each day’s drawing, free of expense.  And for the convenience of their country-customers publish in every paper, while any lottery is drawing, the numbers of all prizes over seven dollars, state of the lottery, &c. &c.

—­> Persons at a distance may be assured, that the most punctual and strict attention will be given their orders for tickets, (post paid) enclosing cash or prize tickets, addressed to GILBERT & DEAN, 79, State street, or W. & T. KIDDER, 9, Market-square, and the earliest information sent them respecting the fate of their numbers.
