New York, September 2.--Rev. DR.. Bacon
contributes paper to the Independent on the
Brooklyn scandal, which is mainly devoted to
an attack ON Moulton and the role he has en-
acted in the matter as mutual friend. he
argues that whether the Beecher or Muulton
story be true, the latter is left in most I'M
envisble position. Beecher charges him with
having been for years the chief actor in the
base conspiracy. He tells a story very dis
honorable to his own discretion and not In
credible all things considered. This con-
spiracy was TO ruin Beecher and has family
bv false charges but if Beecher's story be un-
TO have been engaged i'll conspiracy to cover
up and compromise a foul wrong against So
ciety to conceal a crime which ought to have
been exposed and finished. The writer asks
if Beecher's charge is untrue why does not
the latter bring his accuser before jury, and
concludes rs follows: Doubtless 1t is the hope
of countless multitudes in this and othor
lands that Beecher will be triumphantly win
dicated, and that he may be, but they are not
praying nor hoping that if he is guilty he may
escape detection. Having long honored him
as good man, they believe he is innocent OF
the wickedness imputed to him, and they will
continue to think so until he shall be proven
guilty. In that belief they are praying that
his innocence may be manifest and that those
who have eonspired to destroy him may be
COMPOUNDED. Beechers friends do not claim
for him immunity in any wickedness. Moul-
ton may negotiate him into infamy, but he is
not counted among Beecher's friends
Gen James Watson Webb arrived here this
