the editor Of the Sun makes it nee.

as necessarily taught in our public

have little value as discipline for the

The editor Of the Sun knows n
great deal, but one or two things he
has yet TO learn. One of these is that
he ranks stenography very much below

THE BEECHER SCANDAL

Driven to desperation by the abuse
Of Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's friends,
Mr.. Theodore Tilton has publicly pro.
claimed that gentleman guilty Of a
crime that he hesitates to name or char
acterize; and, in proof Of the charge,
publishes a letter written by Mr..
Beecher in which the unfortunate man
bewails his weakness, admits his guilt.
ness of an offense against Mr.. Tilton
and wishes he we're dead.
There are those who will denounce
Mr.. Tilton for this action, but no fair
minded person, not Infatuated by at
lection for or admiration of Mr.. Beecher
will do so. 1t is surprising fact that
he had the patience to remain silent as
long as he did and he would have
been either the basest or the most
saint.like of mankind if he had kept
the seal upon his mouth until the end.
A friend Of his,-a minister Of the
gospel Of Jesus--his pastor, while he
was away from his home, polluted that
home, destroyed his earthly happiness,
tore out of its niche in his heart cher.
shed household idol, separated him
from ire wife Of his bosom. This be-
came known, and Immediately all thu
nnon ' tb Of S&sSd 81 the wrouged maj
,or,snts of abuse. He was villifet
and denounced as a slanderer. Mr.
oeecher remained as silent as the
grave, aud Mr.. Tilton patiently en-.
dured. lie had been guilty Of nc
wroug-be had been wronged but (sc
unjust is the world everybody began
to point Ut him the finger Of scorD
while the sympathy of the public was
heaped upon the seducer of his wife
the destroyer Of the happiness of a
home. Strange as it may appear, the
wives Of other men than Tilton were
the loudest denouncers Of that unfor
tunate gentleman, and the most ar.
dent defenders of the false priest.
At last Mr.. Tilton lost his patience
he concluded to speak, and he has
spoken and he has spoken language
that demands reply; Mr.. Beecher
must now defend his character OF he
will stand convicted by confession of
the charges that have been made
against him. That he is guilty VIC do
mot doubt; that he should be forgiven
we admit but be must not any longer
stand behind silence making it the
breastwork of his reputation. He
should speak, confess his sin and retire
from the public gaze. Hereafter, if be
should persist in affronting the public
with his presence as a holy man, he
will be the scandal and reproach of
Christianity.
