Al explain it precisely in the same way
as do the words of Paul, who said thathc
died deaths daily, that he was the Off
securing of the earth, having care ofall
the churches, and yet with all this burden
on his mind, he described himself as living
in the most transcendent religious peace
and joy. The first effect ofthese troubles
to me was the most anguishful and de-
pressed, and often times l lay in them,
even as ship heaves
on sea in times of calm when she can
make no progress and yet cant be still

l refer to the occasions IN which
he said YOU touched his wifes
ankle, and were found with Il
flushed face in the bed chamber of his
house? Al do cmphatically deny that
either of these scenes ever occurred.
BY Mr.. Whitc-Q. In one part Of your
statement you say that in December, 1870,
you heard of many immoraIties of Mr..
Tiltons and that You believed in their
existence; in a latter part of Your state
ment you say that YOU had subsequently,
been deceived into the belief that Mr..
Tilton was not in the fault in respect to
his moral conduct. How do YOU recon-
ellie these two statements? A-BccauSe
when the matter came To- me from Bowen
and through a visit of Titon'S family |
was under the full persuasion of the truth
of these things. One of the very first
things to which Moulton and Tilton had
addressed themselves was to diSahusc my
mind of this belief concerning Tilton's
moral conduct. Tilton alluded to the
subject of his own purity with circum-
staucial and historical statements, and
Moulton's conduct specially tended to
convince me that all the allegations
against Mr.. Tilton respecting such mat
tiers were false.
Odd you admit ut any time to Moul-
ton or Tilton, or to any other person, that
you had ever had any relations with
Mrs. Elizabeth r. Tilton, or ever COM
mitted any act to or with her or said any
word to her which would be unfit for a
Christian man to hold, do or say with the
wife of his friend, or for a father to hold
or do or say to his daughter or a brother
with his sister? Did YOU ever admit this
in any form or in any words? A
Never.
BY Mr.. Tracy-Q-Did YOU ever in
fact hold any such relations, do any such .
act or utter any such word. A-Never

him my whole fortune than to have Til

LETTER FROM COLUMBUS.
CoII1MnI1s. Dec / 1874

COLUMBUS, Dec. l, 1874
ED. SPIRIT: Tue excitement that fol
lowed the recent Democratic triumphs
has about subsidized here, and ratification
meetings have closed for the present
season.
The meeting of the Legislature one
month sooner than usual this year, has
FASTENED the Report business among'the
State officials and trustees Of public in.
stitutions. The most of them, how ever,
have been able to come to time. Some
of the reports Of the public institutions
will be read with more interest this year
than usual especially by those who have
had control Of them heretofore. They
will be able to see what they could not,
or would not, see when they were in
charge of these important trusts-their
own irregularities shown up to the pub
lie. They will, no doubt, judge more
clearly of their own transactions when
they see them in print than when they
were the personal actors. Their jldg-
ment would no doubt be much more
clear if they were to sit upon the action
Of some others.
What the irregularities are will be
much better shown by the reports, when
published, than | can give in a short let
ter. l shall therefore not attempt to de
signate further than say that they exist,
ed in the former management of the
Penitentiary and new Central Asylum,
and leave the matter for you to draw
upon when these reports are published.
The General Assembly met to day
and nearly all the members are present
Business was resumed actively. Mr.
Eshelman, Chairman of the Finance
Committee, has been here for the past
week, maturing the appropriation bill
Previous 10 his coming here he address
ed letters to the heads of all public insti
tutiOns of the State, and all State officers
calling on them for estimates for expen,
ditures for the fiscal year ending Novem,
ber Is, 1875.
Having these facts before him he was
able to mature his bill last week, and he
introduced it to day. Tnis is rather al
anomaly in The history of legislation in
Ohio. The appropriation bill has not
heretofore, been introduced until after
the ending of the first quarter of the
year, February 10 Its early introdnc
ton, if steadily pressed forward by Mr..
Eshelman, will have decided effect in
shortening the session.
