We are surprised that the entire press of the country has not taken it up and administered aldose of the lash. There is scarce^ a city in the country where Louisiana Lottery tickets are not bought, and the money expended each year on lottery tickets in this city would keep at least one family very comfortably. This wastewculd not be so inexcusable were there some tangible return. But the poor silly victim for his common sense must have deserted him, has nothing to show for his money. But, you say, “He may draw a prize.5' Ttll that to the Marines.
