Singing Hepiy TO Mr. Beechet's
Pronuncinmento.

the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher
Mr.. TlLToS's CARD.
Mr.. Beecher's pronuncianento In the
Union of this week requires lie
to reply as follows
!. have charged the Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher with seduction and adultery.
These charges have already proved to the
full belief of quarters of the people
of this nation, including almost unanimous
ly the lega, profession, who, above all
other classes, are most competent to weigh
evidence now wait TO repeat and SOL
emnizc this proof in court of law To
this end two actions are pending in the
city court of Brooklyn. These are, first,
civil suit entered by ne against Mr..
Beechcr; second, criminal indictment
procured by Mr. Beecher against me.
The first of these causes, namely, mine
against him, Is continually thwartcd by |
his strange and urexamped demand for a |
catalogue of the particular dates and places |
at which he committed his acts of adultery. |
What is the practical effect of this de- |
mand? The sexual intimacy between Mr.. |
Becchcr and Mrs. Tilton extended, accord |
ing to their own account Of it, from the |
fall of 1868, through the whole of 1869,
into the spring of 10-ovcrlapping three
successive years and yet Mr.. Beecher,
