MOSES Y. BEACH OF THE PENNY SUN IN TROUBLE
The CURIOUS CASE ANTHONY DEY-BANKRUPrs IN
GENERAL AND PARTlcUIAR.-Moses Y. Beach, the
laundering blockhcad of the Sun, makes one OF the
most amusing exhibitions yesterday, that we ever
read or heard Of II processes to be statement OF
certain proceedings of Anthony Dey against us fol
lowed by large lice OF elegant abuse which exhi-
bits the literary qua OF Beach In the reddest light
imaginable Perhaf the whole body of blackguard
literature cannot furnish such a rich specimen of
fanfaronade. Here itl':-

the iron clutches law again laid heavily upon
him. The grand jury has found Tue bill OF indictment

holding that aged and most respectable citizen his family
and his relatives to the rdicule and derision OF the

several others the complaints OF other respectable cl
whose business misotunes havebeen seized upon by
this alien vagabond pretext and excuse for making

butt of his rbaldry tickle fancy of the depraved
into the purchase of his worthless Herald of profanity
basphemy, obsceniy and desecraon of public character
and private worth.
In these prosecutions, provoked by the wanton
and depraved of the accounts of the unortu
bankrupt the alien panderer vice and wick
will fnd himself involved in dilemma from which 1t will
not be practicable to wrsge himself by the tactics of
mingled impudencs and craven pusanimity, which he
has heretofore practsed with such success. The pity
which he has often repaid by the grossest ngratude
and abuse will again be wasted upon him by an
American of justice. His spanellike wailipgs
and beggary applications will never again be suffered

turn his rbald sco and his insulting rdicue His bra
zen impudence has exhausted its novelty, and will no
more serve him in evadng the righteous retrbution
which has so long been hanging his head. Neither
will the cowardly and characteristic expedient-adopted
by him when he found the indictments were upon his
heels-of getting the reporter whom he employed and
directed to procure for him those garbed extracts from
the records OF the court and or tive other dependents
who his instruments in this business included with
him in the Indictment that he might turn States evidence

persons, terms or figures.
II is needless TO say that there is hardly word or
statement In all this funny TRADE that is true, or has
the sembance OF truth. If we have been indicted we
have not heard OF 1t. Pray, what would we be in
dicted for7 For publishing abstract of legal
proceedings and papers in the courts of the United
States? Is it crime do sol If it be So the sooner

to complain at all We think his poor creditors,
composed of all ranks and conditions, have the most
reason to find fault and TO complain that they
transacted their little business the credit system,
or ever induced to furnish him with food, raj

But put your finger to your nose, gentle reader.
We have every reason to believe that Moses Y.

Merchants and others. Fourth edition. Enlarged TO ten
times the original matter, and containing brief His

and published at the Sun Office. 1872
In the introduction to this brochure, Beach an

various authentic sources"-and his aim is 10 "ell
