NEW YORK., July 20, 1874
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.
notice in your issue OF to-day (which devoured
with the appetite OF a thousand Brooklynites) a
letter from all actor. Il Is not singular but it is
a notable TACT that when minister gets mixed UP
with a family, or tangled little, the profession OF
which your correspondent seems to be MEMBER
takes especial delight IN holding his profession up
in comparison to their own pure and immac-
ulate Spotlessness. Mr.. -ardine, or what
ever his name is comes in for his share
OF fame, and honest old Mr. Holland
Is dragged before the public times without number
when his peaceful sleep should remain invioate.
If Mr.. Beecher is guilty, 'of with his head" but
we can afford TO await a patient investigation
before we form opinions and condemn the man.
We are all aware that there are black sheep III
every Dock but let US nave the evidence OF color
before we root them out. The ministerial proies-
sion is noble one. The stage has also its Illus
trious examples; but. take IL all IN all, think
would as soon trust my great grandmother with o

Mr.. 0eecher's Reply.

FROM the BOSTON JOurudl.l
Mr.. Beecher has taken the right course in re-
serving q detailed answer to Mr.. Tilton's state
ment till it can be given in completeness, while he
Immediately meets its main charges before the
public. 1t Will be seen that, so far as this first
duty is concerned, he disch argos it thoroughly,
becOmingly and with every appearance OF entire
truthuness. IN everything that relates to his
conduct toward the only person involved in Mr..
TiltOns charges his denial is rs explicit and ample
as his best friends could desire. The only accusa-
tons OF improperly which rest upon Mr.. lllton's
direct evidence he prOnounces to be absolutely
ialse This is all he needed TO do at present, aud
1t is perhaps that in which he made q mistake by
not doing before. Mr.. Beccher's reputation has
not yet been so beclOudcd-that noble reputation
which has been the pride OF all his right minded
cOuntrymen and which has reached throughout
Cnristendom--tbat his PLAIN word in defence or his
cwn honor will not suffice with the community
until at least, II is overcome by evidence oil the
most irresistible strength. The inveStiga ton,
therefore, can now go forward to conclusion amid
the general feeling that MI. Beecher has put HIM
self In the right position, and one that points 10
his ultimate yiu0tcatiOn.

There Is 40 Middle Ground.
from the Utica Observer.l

Either the letters which Tilton publishes are
forgeries or Beecher Is guilty OF an offence which
destroys, absolutely and forever, his position as
teacher OF morals There is no middle ground on
which to stand. Either the exposure Is a stupen-
dous lie or Deecher Is q monumental ny pocr tc.
All efforts to harmonic mis- alleged lutheran ces
with the theory OF his innocence are worse than
absurd. No innocent man "humoled himself
before Theodore Ttlton as he did before his God"
NO innocent man "even wished that he were
dead.' No innocent man contem plated suicide
and ''iound great peace in thinking that he was
spending mis- last sunday and preaching his last
sermon" NO innocent man penncd those lines
which Tilton submitted in the handwriting OF

ITIO1n g
II this statement is true OF course 1t ruins Mr..
Beecher forever, 80 lar this world is concerned.
But fairness requires a suspense OF judgment till
all sides are heard. True or not true it reveals q
state of things which hardly has parallel in any

additional incidents, which must fully redeem ours
from the charge Of being prOsaic age.
