BEECHER-TILTON.- is evident
that this case must go to the courts
10 be adjudicated. Tilton refuses to
appear before the Investigating Com
mittee appointed by Plymouth
Church. So far Mrs. Tilton has de-
MED that she ever confessed to any
improper connection with Mr..
Beecher, and both she and Beecher
make flat denial of the charge of
adultery. In regard TO the letters
used by Tilton, it is not denied that
they were written, but we are given
to understand that they will be sat
isfactorily explained. This is the
very point which presents the great
est difficulty to-day. Mr.. Beecher
and Mrs. Tilton have answered Mr..
Tilton, but they have not answered
these terrible letters. No explana-
ton yet suggested is sufficient TO ac
count for their language, whether we
think of Beecher wishing himself
dead, or Mrs. Tilton referring to her
81 SIM" There must be very impor-
tant evidence yet to come. So far
little has been done to clear up the
mystery which has surrounded the
question from the first. The state
ments have been put in without
order, and one witness, Moulton,
who was knowing to the facts, and
who acted as mediator between
Becher and Tilton, has not been
heard at all. 1t is the bad manage
ment OF Beecher's protested friends
which keeps alive the public dis
trust. We expect to see an innocent
man come out frankly. He is con-
scious OF guilt who makes a labored
system of defence, and speaks only
by the advice of counsel. Mr..
Beecher's legal friends are manag-
ing the case just as they would il
they knew him to be guilty, but
hoped that it could not be proved.

MINING ADVEHTISEMENTS.

We place before our readers the
following extract, from the Act pro-
viding for the formation of mining
and other corporations, passed by
the Legislature of Nevada, approved
March 10, 1865: it will be found of
interest and importance to mining
interpretations, secretaries, or adver-
Users of mining assessments. Such
advertisements must be published
in a newspaper in the county where
the mine is situated, if there be one;
if none is published in the county,
then the nearest newspaper to
such mine is the legal one for adj
vertising said assessment or other
mining advertisement, otherwise the
publication IS null and void. Stock.
holders whose property is thus dis
posed of illegally, can afterward
claim and recover said property,
whenever they shall see fit to con-
test the same. The law referred to
can be found in the .Statutes of
Nevada" 1S64-5, page 361, or in the
"Compiled Laws of Nevada" 1873,
vol. H., page 275. Cut this out tor
future reference. Here is the law
directly affecting the point in ques-
ton:
Section 10. The stockholders of
any corporation formed under this
Act may, in the bylaws of the COM
pany, prescribe the times, manner
and amounts in which the payment
of the sums subscribed by them
respectively shall be made; but in
case the same shall not be so pre-
scribed, the Trustees shall have
power to demand and call in from
the stockholders the sums by them
subscribed, at such times and in
such manner, payments or install
ments as they may deem proper.
In all cases notices of each assess
ment shall be given to the stock
holder, personally or by publication,
once a week for at least four weeks,
IN some newspaper published IN the
county an Which the principal place
of the company is located, and
If none be published IN such county,
then an the newspaper NEAREST
to sad principal place Of batsi-
ness IN the State. If, after such
notice has been given, any stock
holder shall make default in the
payment of the assessment upon
the shares held by him, so many
of such shares may be sold as
will be necessary for the payment of
the assessment upon all the shares
held by him, her or them. The sale
CT said shares shall be made as pre-
scribed in the bylaws of the COM
pany, but shall in all cases be made
ut the Office of the company. No
sale shall be made except at public
auction, to the highest bidder, after
q notice Of Jour weeks published as
dbope directed an this section and at
such sale the person who shall pay
the assessment so due, together with
the expenses of advertising and sale,
for the smallest number of shares or
portion of share, as the case may
be, shall be deemed the highest
bidder"

afternoon the two parties met in a house at
Cerro Hill, on the coast, about 20 miles south
of this place, when he (Coxl told Emerson
that was no way to serve a man-to go round
threatening him. Emerson replied by asking,
'What do you intend to do about iD" Cox
told him Nothing" and insisted that Emer-
son was not doing right by telling the neigh
bors that he intended to drive him off If he
returned to the Hill Emerson thereupon

the abdomen. No witnesses have yet arrived.

Reasoning in a Hare.

The following circumstance was re-
lated by a respectable farmer as hap
pening within his own observation, and
in illustration of its truth it may be
proper to remark that in the country
where it happened-in Cornwal!-the
hills, which are steep, rise so abruptly
and near to each other, that whatever
passes on the side of one may be easily
discerned on the other. His attention
was first drawn to hare, which he per-
celved running down n slope, close
to the hedge in ii Id of turnips, and
soon afterwards ho perceived THAI IN
pursuit of her were couple OF dogs.
As these dogs entered the field he saw
that the hare stopped for a moment and
lifted her ears. The pursuers pressed
on, but when they had come within 1T
tie more than gunshot of their hope for
prey, the hare stopped, and then ran
back for some distance along its former
track, when by sudden spring 1T threw
itself on one side into the midst OF the
turnips, and there remained crouched
and still. The dogs passed onward in
their course ut rapid rate and as soon
as they had passed forward on its track
with another bound the hare sprane
back to the place it had quilted, ant
ran along the course by which it haC
come down, with the evident intention
of confounding together its upward ant
downward course. BY this time tn
dogs had come to the lower extent t.
which the hare proceeded, and ther
they stopped, as not knowing what fur
ther course to take. 1t was thus TIL
