Guilty OR NOT GUILTY-wHICH ?

The evidence is in; the various state
mcnts are submitted; the cross-eXami-
nations are over. Mr.. BEECHER has
riven to the world a beautiful produc-
ton of his magnificent intellect in de-
fence of himself one which will no doubt
convince many persons that ne Is the
most scandalized man in the world, and
that through the agency OF enemies, and
feelings for his friends, he has been forced
through weary years of such bitter anX-
ietv, remorse and despair as can be only
freely described by his own eloquent pen.
We will not attempt to analyze his state
ment. 1t is open to the world and all
can read it. Many and divers are the
sentiments regarding the matter.
The Press, generally, expresses salts
faction rs to the result, and is ready to
pronounce Mr.. BEECHER innocent. This
is the general state of feeling, though not
universal, for there are manSexpressions
to the effect that q satisfactory verdict
cannot vet be rendered. The New York
Herald is very non-committal. 1t says
that BEECHER's statement is only Oppos-
ed BY T1LToN's, and that between
the credibility of the two, BEECHER has
decidedly the advantage, both from his
highstanding among men, and his eX-
IRENE personal popularity. As to Mrs.
TILToN, her statements are very eXtraor-
binary, for at one time she makes con-
fcssion of BEECHER's guilt, and after
wards denies it strenuously. Among
these three Mr.. BEECHER will undOubt-
edlv receive most confidence. MoUL-
TONS testimony was not given, but
it crept out that that which he had
to say was damaging and might have de-
stroved much of the faith which
BEECHER has created. The article con-
cludcs with saving that MOULTON must
vet come on the stage. That he is dis
tinctly represented as a black mailer and
An extortioner of money for TILToN, and
he cannot rest under this imputation;
Mr.. BEECHER has greatly attcnuatcd and
reduced to gossamcr the threads Of that
net which had been woven around him;
but the world will require that even a
thread of cossamcr shall not hang be-
tween his innocence and its eyes. The
WsrH SAYS that the eminent accused
has completely cleared himself, and that
all the mysterious charges against him
have been entirely explained.
As for ourselves we do not wish to be
guilty of injustice and therefore will eX-
press no opinion. The whole matter has
been placed before our readers III all lis
phases, and 50 completely as to have
reached the nauseous stage. The only
place where decision will be expressed
which will not be enwrappcd in doubt,
will be a court of justice. Then MoULToK
and all the rest of them must testify. In
the meantime an intelligent public must
each one for himself make up his mind,
and cast his votc-guilty or not guilty.

Travellers Testimony,

Thousands of travellers by land and sea
have vouched for the efficacy of HoStettcr'S
Stomach HttcrS rs n preventive OF the
physical disturbances which ordinarily
arise from change of climate and the
changes of diet, water, &c, incident to q
wandering life. Upon systems toned, in
vigorated and regulated by this genia
vegetable antidOte the external causes OF
debility and disease seem To produce little
or no effect. Forearmed with HoStcttcrs
BitteTS, the VOyager may bid defiance To
Sea-SiCkncSS, and encounter the chilling
fOgS of the British Isles, the coast winds
of the Antilles, the icy temperature of
northern Alaska, or the burning heat of
the tropics, with equal impunity. The
effect of this admirable indicated slim
ulaut is greatly To increase the vital en-
Crgy of the system, thereby enabling ii to
resist and rcpel the exciting causes of
disease.
At thirty-tive the average American dis
covers that he has an Internal Stomach,
and goes into the hands Of the doctors for
the remnant of his life. Prevention is bet
ter than cure, but pr. Walkers Vinegar
Bitters will both cure and prevent dyspcp-
STA, diseases of the skin, liver, kieneyS and
bladder and all disorders arising from an
Internal stomach ~

How ceEtain prominent financlers who havo

unfeigned wonder to tho world at large. Cur-

felt the need of expansion, and, with vast in

began to expand. They cheaponed money to an

the INDEPENDENT of this morning
that Mr.. III. w. Scheelky is an
nounced as candidate for coun-
Gilman from the Fifth Ward. Is
this done with Mr. Scheelky's con-

member and an officer of the pub
lie meeting which was held in this
Ward, and which nominated Mr..
Z. N. Hoffman for the position of
Council? III mistake not he acted
as the Secretary of that meeting,
and thereby bound himself, as an
honorable man, to support its
choice for Council. If Mr.. Scheel.

meeting and he had received the
nomination, does any one suppose
that the true man, Peter N. Hoff-
man, would have refused to abide

solved into a very small compass.
IfMr Scheelky has not manhood
and honor enough in his compost
ton to abide by the decision of
public meeting of which he acted
as the Secretary, then it Is incum-
bent upon the voters of the Ward
toshow their manhood by refusing
to vote for such man. A man
who lacks honor in matters of this
kind, is not the kind of a man to
represent this or any other Ward,
in Council. The voters of this
Ward want to know If Mr.. Scheel-
ky has consented to his announce
ment as a candidate, If not, and
he is not candidate, then he will
still be entitled to their former re-
spect and confidence. If he has
consented, and is a candidate, he
must take the consequences of such
dishonorable course.

Trotting stock for roadsters and
other purposes are now in demand;
and as it is just as easy to keep a
good horse as bad one, we see no
reason why the people of Berkeley
county should not have as good
horses as the people of any other
section of the United States. If
they will exercise the same care in
breeding their stock as they do in
selecting their wheat, this end can
be accomplished. Mr.. Thomas
Collins, who knows good horse
when he sees him, has purchased
the celebrated trotting stallion
Latham" and proposes to use
him for breeding purposes the
present season. He is the hall
brother of Goldsmith Maid, and
has a record low down in the
twenties, and lovers of fast stock
should make a note of his presence
in this county. He will be kept at
Strausner's livery stable.
