MR.. TurON's sTESOGRAPHIC NOTES.
Mr.. Wlnslow, of the Committee of Inquiry,
10 whom was ntrusted the work OF comparing the
copies OF the letters quoted by Mr. TtOn
| IN his statement. and furnished 10 the
| Committee BY Mr. Mouton, with the orig
/ inas IN Mr. Moultons possession, told a TRIBUNE
reported yesterday that the assertion which had been
made tnat the only he bad found in Mr. Tton's
| extracts when compared with the original letter,
| was the giving OF two extracts from one
| letter as parts Of two separate letters, gave
| an incorrect expression Wlen IN Mr. douton's
house he pointed out that error TO Mr.. Tlton.
but did say that 10 was the only error or intend TO
rive that impression. With regard Mr. TOn's re-
| ported assertion that Mr. WiusiOw had answered Mr.
Tuton's inquiry, Did l garbIe those letorsi' with
| the question why DID Mr. Baecher write those let
rer 2" Mr. Wnslow SAID thar he did not remember giving
such an 10 such question, but he might poss'
bly have used those words in the conversation. There
was nothing 10 conceal about the fact that all Mr.
Beechers friends surprised 10 mud that he had
| written such letters
As to the quotations which he made from the letters
being yarbled, Nj. TltOn made the following statement
Tuesday evening to a TRIBUNE reporter but requested
that il should not De repeated his authority The
substance OF his remark printed yesterday evening
and is now given in full Tuesday morning MI Wins
low went 10 Mr. Moultons house for the purpose OF COM
paring the copies which Mr. MouOn had presented and
my own extracts with the original letters. He was up
stairs for over an hour and was IN the room below.
When Mr. WinslOw down, said to him. John, do
! YOU hnd that had garbled those letters, or that
! the extracts which made falsely repre-
sented tue spirit OF the wholef Mr.. Winslow
| repied [ have found important mistakes. The
only one which you made in quoting two passages
from one letter, and attributing them TO different
letters, He then added. Why did Mr. Beecher write
those lcttersP Iresponded, that supposed the Com
mttee would answer that question in ie~ days, since
lt was for that they were appointed"
O. Did Mr. Winslow say anything further 10 you
upon this subjecti A. No, but John Winsiow
looked sad. He knows the case aud he knows that
have told the truth He is honest man, and knowing
what he does Will be hard thing for him TO DO 70
sign his name to report vindcatng Mr Beecher when
much OF the evidence against him. by one means or
other from the public, and even from tue
| Committee That he assent 10 such report am
| not yet ready 10 believe.
