Mr. BEECHER'S DEFENCE-An editor OF

long account OF conversation with MIR.
Beecher 10 relation to his participation in the
Richardson death bed marriage. MIR. Beecher
declared hi4 conviction that the marriage was
legal, a. the woman had procured full divorce.
The conclusion of the interview is as follows:
Reporter-The whole matter appears to be
as complicated as it is said, hlr. Beecher.
Rev H. w. Beecher-lt IS very sad affair.
There has been terrible work somewhere. | ex
uected to be blown up by the press when
consented 10 act to please my old friend Gree
ley, and have not been disappointed. | have
rot used to being blown up by this time. |
don't mind it; it rather agrees with me. And
there has been great deal OF convenient malice
in the newspaper attacks on me. They have
been putting the dead Richardson, and paying
of old grudges over my shoulders.
Reporter is your opinion OF the prlu-
cjpal actors in the Richardson tragedy?
Rev. IL. W. Beecher-l have no opinion
know nothing about them; | have never seen
McFariand; DO not remember seeing Richard
,On until he was dying, never met Mrs. Nc
Farlaud till the tragedy. But, sir though |
It'll believe in the innocence of Albert ID.
Richardson aud in the integrity OF my own
course in the matter | do not hesitate to say
that AIN parties concerned have acted impru-
deptly. itnprudeutly. most imprudently; but as
lor myself il have made mistake, | will
ocLnosledge it when it is proved that have
made it. Good night.
And the interview was over.

BarDAL ToURs.-Iu earlier days in Virginia
history, a amarriage was made an occasion of
Utilization. To use q homely expression. the
tg pot was put in the little one to boil. The
fg fire OF hickory logs roared and cracked on
he hearth The invitations were sent out far
and near, and the whole country gathered TO
the feast The plantation minstrels' were
brought in with fiddles and tamborines, the fire
was replenished and with laugh aud song and
dance and wine. the hours few by with the
wings of light. That old memento of the past,
the reel, was whistled through, and as every
lad led up his lassie merry feet keep time to
the music and merry voices shouted forth the
OF many hearts. Those were happy
days but how changed are things now even
the eddie has been changed to violin. the
ceremony takes place privately, the mother,
for fashions sake, sheds few hypOcritical
tears, and the married pair, as if ashamed OF
what they have done, hurry away from among
friends, to encounter the laughter and rldicule

THE CHINESE IN CALIFORNIA. The ci->
tizens of San Francisco have recently
held meeting to organize society to.
protect the Chinese emigrants from the
cruel treatment to which they are at pres
ent subjected. The preamble and con-
stitution adopted by the meeting sets forth
that the outrageous abuse and i'll usage of
the Chinese by ignorant and disreputable,
persons in the public streets of San Fran.
cisco are discraceful to the free institutions.
of the country, to the civilization of the,
age and to Christianity. AS it appears
that the municipal authorities are unable
to suppress these outrages with the means
at their command, and as the Chinese are
unprotected by the laws in consequence
of the lower courts of the judiciary re-
fusing to admit their testimony as evil
dence against their assailants, the society
