lie FRENCH PEASANTRT. 1.-The Paris cor
respondent OF the London Times, writing about
the journey of Marshal MacNIahon through the
provinces, says:
The news of the Emperor death WAS received
in the country with degree Of iucreduity 1t
was alleged Il be Il fabrication of his enemies,
who wahtcI to prevent his return, and it was
stated that he would certainly reappear. The

ofthe empire. The press told them that it vas

useless, for, ly the time the French peasantry

was thus in powc: for the pun pose Of awaiting
favorable movement for bringing back the king
or the Emperor. he recently began to be pop

val l:ss since elapsed, and this impression was
beginning to fade away In the eyes of the

A. Mrs Titon came to my house for the nrst ''ihe
one day during last February or March, Iuliy year
and fourth after she had written 'he io'.er
regarding Mr.. Beecher for me to see She then in
formed me that she was in no sense the author OF
that letter, and that the statement in 1t affecting
Mr.. Beecher was utterly false, without the shadow
of foundation in fact. Twas as much astounded 10
hear her denial as when read her charge over
year before and asked her il she realized what she
had DONE She said that she did fully realize tho
sin she had committed. told her that she had done
Mr.. Beecher an incalculable wrong, In allowing q
false charge 80 fearful in its character to stahu
against him for so long time whatever the clrcum
stances which caused her to make it; that 1t was
terrible wickedness against God and CRIME against
society. She knew and acknowledged 1t all.
DR. Storrs smoke with much feeling OF the many
wears of friendship between Mr. Beecher and him
solf and said that mono could hope more strongly
than he that Mr.. Beecher would be shown TO De
blameless. He hoped that the investigation would
be so searching and thorough, and would demon
strate Mr.. Beecher's innocence so completely tnat
no poisoned arrow that should be hurled at MIN
hereafter would ever be effective. Nothing could
be more terrible than to see such brilliant and
glorious success as Mr. Beecher had achieved end In
darkness. He has good reason to be cheered and II
is greatly to his honor said Dr. Storrs that not only
Plymouth Church but the public at large have snch
an abiding faith in his honesty and purity There Is
hardly another man in the country against whom so
direct and fearful charges would fall so lightly NO
one with a heart can wish for him anything less

INFFRRNCEs FROM THE INTERVIEW.
The statement for the most part, was written.
although he added some things that were not I'D
writing Like the Bacon letter, this was intended
10 show that Mr.. Beecher had committed an
"ofansev for which he had made an apology"
and think the same part OF the apology was
opoted that appears in the Bacon letter The letter
of Mrs. Tilton indicated how grave an otfense 1t
WAS al the best ard might have been construed as
stating the full ofense to be an improper proposal
saw with this exception, of the original let
ters mr. documents Mr. Tilton did not have them
with him, and did not ask to see them. Except
for Mrs Tilton's letter should not have listened to
the statement since was convinced that the SUD
feet was not one upon which cared to advise
lido not recall whatmy exact language was to Mr.
Triton when he had finished reading his statement;
but as said before the substance OF 1t was that no
public card embodying an evasion would IN any way
better the case 1t would be preferable take no no
tice of Mrs. Woodhuls paper. This was the last OF
the affair so far as was concerned Learned no more

and the scandal has never been referred 10.

ever may have been the fact, was entirely disa-

Beecher and of his wife with affection and tender
ness. He was not violent in his language, and ap-
reared to be honestly seeking some peaceful solution
Feeling that a public answer to the Woodruff paper
