GEN. GARFIELD spent Wed nesdaY night
at the Fisk house, and during the evening
was serenaded by the band, and called out
by a collet lion of our citizens. He made
few remarks having reference to matters
of local interest-c0mmercial growth and
importance, and the fattering prospect
enjoyed by our citizens. The General is
in good condition, and not particularly
worried by the industry and faculty
for invention shown by the emissaries
whom his Warren competitor has put in
to the field.

THE CONNEAUTvILLE CAsHIER.-A n0L1e
prosequi was entered in the case of Will
liams, the defaulting Icashier of Con-
neautville, who it is supposed was inter
ested in the robbery at that place This
action was taken by Attorney General
Williams, through the representations
made by Hon. N. B. Lowry, of Erie,
Robinson, of Connea utVille and Hon. D
Derrickson, of Meadville. These men
paid visit to Washington and stated that
the defalcations had been made good to
the poor people of Conneautville who had
suffered by it. On account of this settle
ment there is no good cause for action.
On this view of the case, Williams sen to
District Attorney Reed, of Pittsburgh,
nOlze prOsequi. Reed, thinking something
was wrong, made an investigation, and
the stockholders of the bank sent q re-
monstrance, stating that the deficit had
not been made good. This was sent to
Attorney General Williams, who immedi-
ately revoked his order That TaOIle prose-
gui should be entered and the case will be
tried, in Erie, next week.

Those "torments of the damned" that
Beecher tells US about, seem to be borne
with tolerable fortitude and patience. The
postponement of the statement he has
promised TO make, which is to establish
his innocence, almost any other man en-
dowed with but ordinary endurance,
would be likely to bring out without de-
lay. II he is guilty, there is no other true
way for Christian man to take but to ac-
knowledge his fault. and show works
meet for repentance. This would enable
him to pass the dead point of his trouble,
and the public mind, and his own mind,
might begin course of quietude, rest and
relief. Hhe is not guilty. and is a wrong
ed man, he could throw off the odium that
rests upon him in the time it would take
to fill letter page. 1t is pretty clearly
understood that Moulton. whom the COM
mittee refuse TO call to the stand, holds
the key to the whole thing, and could, if
sought by Mr.. Beecher, strip it of all
doubt and uncertainty. Why is 1t. then,
that Beecher will persist in protracting
the intolerable sufferings that weigh upon
his soul, and is drawing upon him and
his alleged waywardness, the attention
and morbid interest of the world?

The Brecher and Tilton scandal is al
lowed TO occupy much of the outside OF
this number, as the all l-engrossing subject
of the day. TiItou's sworn statement,
covering, as we suppose it does, mainly
his side and version of the affair, and EN-
bracing the confessions of both the guilty
parties. carries in itself, nearly all OF any
importance that has been made pubic.
Beecher promises, TO be sure, TO make his
statement, having already given a prelln-
mary one, and Mrs. TIlton has given a
sort of general denial of the avermen's
of her husband. or course, these uehlais
will go for only what they are worth, as
no aduIterer or adultress but that VIII de-
nv before the world, the guilt of such a
connection. Mrs. Tilton has done more
she has denied, admitted, and redenied'
and her testimony is unworthy of consid-
Grafton. So with her seducer, if the prob
abilities of the case are to be relied upon,
and he is the gay deceiVer that he is rep
resented. he would not be likely to hag-
gle at denial, though utterly false.
These parties, therefore, Will defend IN
der great disadvantages, and much allow
ance will have to be made for any state
ments they may make. The promised
statement OF Beecher will probably Oe
given also, in our columns, when 1t snail
appear, if there shall seem to be enough
in it to warrant the devotion of any c)n-
siderable amount of space in that way.
Our friend of the Reporter comes down
very handsomely in the following fashion
in reference TO his rather discourteous al
lusion to the Telegraph last week. We
were at a loss then to understand the
provocation for such feeling, and we are
not much better off now, in view of the
latter clause of the paragraph given. The
notice of his visit was intended to be ere
spectful" and any construction rendering
it otherwise, is to our mind, erroneous.
If the jocose allusion to the old Dutch pipe
that we have noticed in use so often by
our contemporary-an appendage thai
almost every body-except the editor of
the Ielegraph-uses in these days, and
about which they are in no way tender, is
the front of our offending. friend REG,
we'll smash that old pipe and never allude
to it again.
From the above it will be seen that Mr..
Reed no longer holds the Office of Collect
or, we therefore take back all We said about
pei Office holders and such like In fact
we never said it, Ii we did we arc sorry
indeed. In regard TO the 'slipshod style
of the Telegraph" as mentioned by its ed
itor in the last issue, we accept the apollo
gy with our usual modesty, and are plain
TO state that if any of the editorial frater
nifty make us friendly call, we will
speak respectfully of them, if at all.
