THE BEECHER- TILToN SCANDAL Theodore
Tilton has addressed letter to the Beecher
investigating committee, in which be says:
"Ooe of your legal advisers had given me
hope that if on my appearance before you
would preserve judlclous retlcence concerning
the worst aspects OF the case | might thereby
facilitate through you such moderate public
presentation of Mr.. Beecher's offence and apol-
ogy as would close rather than prooug the e&-
istlng scandal. [ rrjoiced in this hope, and
promptly reciprocated the kindly feeling which
was reported to me as shared by you all toward
myself and family Accordingly, when met
your in conference, my brief statement vas in
substance to the two following points: First,
that NY letter to Dr. Bacon was written, not as
an act of aggression, but Of selt-defence, ars-
ing, as therein set forth, from great aud griev-
Gus provocation by your PASTOR your church,
the Brooklyn council and the ex-uoderator's
criticisms on my supposed conduct, all.u0iting
to defame me before the world, and to iDfict
upon me 40 unjust punishment for acts done
by another and second, that having by that
letter defended myself so far as | thought the
occasion required me to carry my reply, felt
unwilling to proceed further against MIR. Beech
er without further public provocatlon or other
necessity.
He further says that within week or ten
days he vii! give full and detailed statement
of all facts that are within his knowledge touch.
iug matters which compromise the character of
Henry Ward Beecher. This he will accompany
with his oath to their exact truth, sworn before
a magistrate.

been in contemplation for some time past to
change the design of the present postal card
4 number of specimens have been submitted
by the Morgan Envelope Company, the trln
which has the contract for printing the cards
now 10 use. The present card Is considered
unsuitable 10 several respects. Ii is too Soui-
bre in color, and the border is generally regard
ed as too heavy. The new card will be lighter
10 color, probably very nearly white. The
printing and engraving will be executed 10 black
ink, and the border will be narrower and much
neater 10 appearance The change has not yet
been fully decided upon, but It is safe to sag
that some alteration in the design OF the pres
ept homey card will be made.

The General Election.

The tidal wave SO long talked about
and hoped for, is at length felt and
seen in its mighty sweep over the land.
The cry for help has at last been heard
and answered, and the democratic aud
conservative gains inspire the ivellest
hope that the future Of the South Will
be brighter. If there is not encour-
agemeut in this then we see nothing
in the signs of the times. Thh house
of representatives in the next Congress
will be largely democratic, and there
will be an inauguration Of such mess-
ures Of Legislation as will A,i0rd relief
to the oppressed South. We have
long thought that our relief must come
from the North and Northwest, and
that it would come sooner or later VIC
could not doubt, and now that it is
seen gives an inspiration which our
people have long been strangers to.
The day is dawning, The redemption
of the South is at hand.

The New York Tribune'S Sum-
ming Up.

New YORK, November 5-Mid-
night.-Thc Tribune gives the follow
ing summary Of the result OF the
elections Nine States, Delaware,
Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mis-
souri,, New jersey, New York, Ten
nessee aad Virginia, have chosen Leg
islatures which will elect Democratic
United States senators. Five Of these
are now repr, sented in the Senate by
Republicans. In FIVE others, Louis
lana, Illinois, Massachusetts,, Pennsyl-
vania and Wisconsin, the Legislature
is either in doubt or has in it an lnde-
pendent element which will be likely
to secure the election Of antl-adDlnis-
tration candidates. The present re-,
turns indicate that the Democrats will
have & majority of between fifty and
sixty in the next House Of RepreseL-
tatives. In Massachusetts, the Demo
cratic majority for governor is about
5000. There is gain Of six Oppo-
sition congressman, with another dis
trict in doubt. In Pennsylvania the
result is doubtful. The Republicans
admit loss Of $4,000 votes on the
State ticket. The Opposition has
elected fourteen congressman, gam
of nine The Democrats have elected
their governor in New Jersey by 5000
majority. The Opposition gain three
congressman. The contest between
Phelps and Cutler, in the fifth district,
can only be decided by the official
canvass. The Republicans have a
majority Of twenty-five on joint ballot
in the Wisconsin Legislature, but
Senator Carpenters reelection is by
no means sure. Delaware has elected
Democratic Governor, Congressmen
and Legislature. The Kellogg clique
is said to BE- trying to count IN the
administration State ticket in Louis
lana, but the Conservatives claim the
State by 10000 majority, aud have
secured the Legislature, aud cohse,
ouently United States Senator, and
have elected four Congressman, . gain

8 or 1 opposition candidates to Goa,
gress; all gain. Tennessee has elected
Democratic Governor by 81. .0GO
majority, aud has gained 8 opposition,
Congressmen. Alabama has elected
Democratic Governor by about
10000 majority, and has gained two
