CROSBY ART ASSOCIATION.
ATTEMPT TO IMPAIR PUBLIC CONFIDENCE IN THE EN
TERPRISE.
[From Chicago rost, August 23d J
An attempt has just been made to impair public
confidence in th- - integrity of purpose of Mr. Crosby
in his g*oat Ari Association enterprise. Some irie
sponsible individual maliciously, and certainly with
out any grounds, bad teligrnphed to several eastern
newspapers that the people here lost confidence in the
scheme being carried out, or the prizes ever awarded.
Now the people in Chicago know that no one has ev
er expressed the slightest doubt of the integrity of
Mr. Crosby, or his ability to carry out to the letter
the a.lverised project of tne Association. The sale
of tickets has been, with the past two weeks, brisker
than ever, and never has there been the slightest in
dication of their depreciating iu value. In the fol
lowing card Mr. Crbsby reiterates his ability and d
termination to carry cut the plan of the Association.
Mr. Nickerson guarantees his undertaking, ard the
committee appointed to superintend the awarding of
premiums endorse both. The people of Chicago re
quire no such guarantees, but on the contrvry the
ichole city would be ready, if required, to guarantee
bo'h the committee. Mr. Nickerson and Mr. Crosby
himself] who originated, and who is J successfully
carrying out the Art Association scheme.
To 'he Members qf the Crosby Opera House Art
Association :
The sale of certificates in the Association has al
ready been so great as to enable me to state that the
distribution of prcmi urns hertofore announced will
be made to their satisfaction, or the money refunded.
U. H. CROSBY, Actuary. A. A

Crosby to car/y out bis enterprise, 1 hereby guaran

The undersigned, members of the Committee ap

From A 7 . Y. Sunday Times
It is very rarely that we feel inclined to call
the attention of our readers to any of the "gift" ar
r ngements with which our papers have lately been
floo led ; but this scheme of w% at we may call the
Crosby Art Union, is so largely and gtnerou-lv con
ceived, a- well as so handsomely and unequivocally
indorsed by the leading citizens of Chicago that wo i i
unhesitatingly give it our cardial approval. The
cost of the Opera House was $600,0f0, and the indi
v d tils who are disposed to pur hase such a property
at sooh a price, are rare, even when its aeoompany
i g s'o e offices and studio* rent for *30.000. What
in 'his case was to be done ? Mr. Crosby, or those
who m- y be associated with him, are sagacious men
They originated thi "art association so broadly '
and liherallv arranged it can scireelvfail ofinsiring 1
ir-elf a pn-i'i - e success* In 'he first place, they offer
to every subscriber, not alone a share in the Opera
House, with the chance of ultimately becoming its
sole proprietor, but a pos-ibility of obtaining also j
other verv valuable premiums' These consist of j
Bierstadt's -rent paintintr. "T he Yo Semite Valley >

by all the leading artists ot the countrv, The first

P"si ivclv genuine n r er no doubt can exist, as the
ai list* give it (heir unhesitating and cordial approval j
Un tor anv CIRCUMSTANCE this ougbs to guarantee its |
purity of intention; but when sttdi n series of promi- •
nent citizens of the Western Metropolis permit Mr. ;
Crosby to use their names in his advertisements as a !
proof of his good frith, su'h a guarantee is Immcas- j
urably strengthened. At the same time we may call i
the a'tcntion of the timidlv speculative to the fact I
that everv purchaser of A share receives an engriv- j
ing of at lea. t double the value of the monev which j
lie nas paid The whole scheme is so magnificent in j
all its arrangements that wc shall indeed be surprised
should Mr. Crosby not speedily realize the whole of
the amount required by him.
