TlLToN's MARITAL CORRESPONDENCE,
CHICAGO, August 12.-The Tribune to-
morrow prints the marital correspondence
between Mr. and Mrs. Tilton, extending
over the term OF four years and up to
within three months Of Mrs. Tilton's al
legged confession. These letters make over
four pages OF the Tribune. They arc ex-
traordinary samples OF passionate afIec-
ton on both sides and contain frequent
illusions TO Dir. Beecher and his visits to
Mrs. Tilton. They were given the Tn.
6une correspondent by Judge Morris, Mr..
Tilton's counsel, and are undoubtedly
genuine.
