THE TESTIMONY AGAINST MIR. BEECHER

=
In the discussion called forth by Mr..
Beecher's statement it is apparent that a
very curious misconception of the nature of
the testimony against him has taken posses
sion of the public mind 1t seems to be gen.
orally assumed that Mrs. Tilton at first ad-
mitted to her husband the truth of the charges
against her honor, afterward retracting this
confession and alleging that 1t was obtained
from her under duress. 1t has been very hard
for M Beecher's friends to understand how a
sane woman, in any conceivable state of men
tai weakness and distress, could be induced
TO write herself down an adulteress unless she
was really guilty. But If the case is read CAFE
fully it will De seen thaC there is no evidence
of Mrs. Tiltons making any such acknowledge
ment, and she protests that she never did
make it.
TiltOn's charge is that on numerous occasions
between October. 1868, and the Spring of 1870,
Henry Ward Beecber had criminal intercourse

There's probably no cynic in this prosaic world of
English-speaking people so grim and hard that he
cannot be touched by that fairy sketch of the two
little wanderers at the Holly Tree Inn. What Gruif
and Gum could withstand it when Dickens read it
himself with the light in his eye and the smile on
his lip that he always had for childhoodf There is
hardly pretter picture in all literature than that
of the handsome bright boy, and the tender little
May Moon perched up at their dinner, with Boots
and all the maids Of the inn adoring them
laughingly, cryingly. But here Is one that
was almost as pretty that was to be seen in
Massachusetts town not long ago. One
of the smallest of small boys, after yainly begging
the enormous sum Of six cents from his remorseless
father managed to acquire it in some other deeply
considered way, and Immediately trotted of to a
consultation with q very wee girl 10 whom he was
fondly attached. A serious conversation revealed
the facts that that attachment was mutual and that

The Brooklyn detectives seem to have aban-
doned the theory that the murdered Italian
WAS the victim of one of the thieving gangs
which make that otherwise quiet place danger

he was assassinated out of revenge by some
of his own cOuntrymen. At present the mys-

The political rivalry of two colored mem

thrown the County of Georgetown into a
spasm of war. The dispatches tell of bloodshed,
besieged houses and gathering reenforcements; ;
and as there is no respect for law or author

the riot will last a day or week longer.
