an an0pymus circular, libel0us In its char
acter, against Daniel F, Beatty, Of Wash
ingtonN j., proprietor Of the Beatty Pr
ano and Bestty's Celebrated Golden
Tongue Parior Organs.
It is supposed to have been done by
competitors in the business, as none 9TH
efs would be to the trouble and expense,
even II they had no fear Of the punish
ment If detected, and the cause is attri-
buted to the fact that Mr.. Beatty has
been making very successful war upon
high prices In those instruments.
We have received from Mr.. Beatty the
following open letter addressed to him
by tie officials and prominent men Of his

sowcd it was spoiled and sold at from
