EPITOR — Dear Sir : In your issue of Se| tember 3rd, I noticed an article beaded "A Forty Dollar Sewing Machine Agent."

It is not at all surprising that the Du h fjuack? w hen nn attempt is made to rob her net. But lot u- in the first place ex amine the letter in claimed to have beenjwritten by 1 J. Grenoble, tolhe Domestic Company, an J we fail to see anything in it that t* unreasonable or un just, and nothing that would warrantee Company in having it published by their Agent. II r. Grenoble was aware that other Companies were felling their Ma chine* tit reduced prices direct from the (■hop, and ho state* in his letter '.hat he van informed that they were doing the same, nnd if so to send him one. Where is the impropriety in it we fail to see But on the other hand would it not have been more credit to the Company to have re plied in ns gentlemanly away as he ha* written to them, and directly to him? 1 douhl not hut it would have been wu for them to have nceeptcd Grcnoblpt oJTcr, for it we# a ffMopublti one, we have the sworn testimonies uf reliable persons, that the r?ul, actual cost of a sewing machine Is not more than seventeen dollars.
