not then heard: it was his criminal ;lsSO
citation with Mrs. Tilton-this, and thi:
onlv-that constituted the basis Of my in
tcrview with him on that memorable
might. This interview | repeat, was hel,
at Mrs. Tilton's request, and my object il
holding it was to quiet her apprehension
concerning the possible exposure of hel
secret through what both She and | thel
supposed to be IN imminent assault upon
Mr.. Beechcr by Mr. Bowen. TO this enc
informed Mr.. Beechcr of the confession
which Mrs Tilton had made to me, sin
necessary for her pcace-perhapS even tol
her lifA-tlat Mr.. Btecher should re-
ceive from my lips in order that he SHOULD
50 manage his case with Mr.. Bowen thai
no danger would arise thcrcfrom of Mrs
Tilton' 5 exposure to the world. This wa
my purpose, and my only purpose. in thai
interview, rs Mrs. Tiiton and Mr.. Bcechel
knew right well.
Now. in the light of these ftcts. thu,
proved, note Mr.. Bcrchers fll>e statement
of them as follows: 1t was not unit
Mr.. Tilton,' he says, - had fallen into dis
grace and lost his salary, that he thought
it necessary to a~sail me with charges
which he pretended to have had in mind
for six months.
Against the above fallacious assertion
have set the counter testimony of lncontc>t-
able facts which | will rccIpitulltc: When
| resolved to meet Mr. ..Brcchcr on Friday
December 30, 1870, had Just made two
or three new contracts with Mr.. Bowen,
signing them only Il few days previous,
from which looked forward to IN in
come as large as the salary of the pastor
of Plymouth church. When sat wait

in independent circumstances and expect
ed to be increasingly 80 for Years to come.
When Mr.. Moulton brought him to me,
that night had no thought the re
motest-of - financial difficulties, OF
" business troubles, or loss Of place.
for had not rs vet come to those dlsa>-
tcrs, nor did then forr-ce them. When
|. Il, he said, talked calmly to him on
that night, it WAS because | had Previous
~ demanded his retirement from the pull
pit, and because this drmanl had we'll
nigh broken my wiic'> heart; for whose
sake alone. and for no other reason, |
agreed with her To meet him face 10 face
in order to inform him that knew of his
intimacy with her, and to ~:lN to him that
for the sake of this suffering woman and
her children. | would Withdraw the de
mand upon him 10 4Nit the pulpit and ilrr

that that interview did not descend 10

A Solemn Joke.

At Fair Oaks, while standing in q
very tempest Of death, With his sword
uplifted in command, General .. o.
Howard had his right arm carried away.
That night, after Howard had suffered
amputation, and was lying spent and
racked with pain in box car which
was to take him to Washington, Kear.
ney drew near, and, locking in the car,
said, "Howard, old boy, am sorry for
you-sorry with all my heart but,
Howard, have just thought of some
thing. When you get to Washington
buy = pair of gloves; send me the right
and keep the left for yourself, and l
will divide the cost with you; and
hereafter We will get along more
economically" And, turning away,
Kearney muttered, "That is better for
him than praying, and then Howard
can beat me at praying anyway"

while Audubon was hunting in the for

might be, to Audubon, it was one Of
the charming and curious race of beings
that interested him above all other liv.
ing things, and to ascertain its history
and habits was matter Of as much
importance as though it were chief Of
the tribe. He, therefore, bent every
energy Of his intense and eager nature
to the study Of it. One night he ca,ne.

had found a pair which were evident

Tho Blue aud Gray.

At Vicksburg, several days ago, a
call for meeting Of the former soldiers
Of the Union and Confederate armies
was published, stating the purpose to
be to foster and encourage kindly rela-
tions between the soldiers in the late
war, and form mutual bonds of friend
ship and good feeling. Several prelimi-
nary meetings held were largely at.
tended by representatives OF both ar
mics, those Of the Union army, resi-
dents in Vicksburg, being nearly equal
in number to the Confederates. At a
later meeting the body formed itself in
to an association to be known as the
"Order of Blue and Gray" The
speeches delivered were indicative of
the utmost good feeling and relief at
this public acknowledgment Of break
in the dark cloud cloud Of prejudice
which has been depressing ali alike.
