Throughout the conversation Mr. Beecher was
calm, but not as jocose as usual. His manner was
very gentle and kindly, but his mind was evidently
preoccuped. Wnile he exhibited occasional
nashes OF his old time SPIRIT the subdued tone Of
his conversation led to the inference that the anx-
retes oil the moment weighed upon his spirits.
But It was Impossible to resist tn the &C convection, u,
had neither lost taitn in his friends nor hope In
his hnal eXtrication from the dlfficulries which
surround him. 1t could readily be gathered from
the tone OF his remarks that he repOsed unlimited
confidence in the members OF the committee, and
had given his case entirely into their keeping and
that ne intended to be guided by them and the
counsellOrs who are aiding them.
Mr.. Beecher Is apparently IN excellent health;
his cheek Is ruddy; his form as erect and pofty az
ever, and he assures MQulring friends tnas Rlo
digestion Is gOOd
