The Age will see that these were all
good and prosperous wears, under Demo
cratic rnlc-and also how easy it il to be
mistaken. The only year of the above
which the Age viii allow to have been
prosperous, il will he seen, was not the
heaviest ship-hnildin@ year. Our neigh
bors memory is badly defective about this
matter

completely the defenders Of the present

comments to columns, but for what plw-

Moulton on the Seventh Command
ment.

Mouiton has made his statement, the
nasty Plymouth church mess is once more
stirred up, and the Christian world has
its senses revolted. Bad as it is, the pub
lie demand to know the whole and under
stand the worst must be satisfied. 1t is too
late to shut down the flood-gate.
Moulton's record OF the matter places
before the world the testimony of the last
witness who is supposed to know anything
Of importance Taken in connection with
Tilton's evidence and the letters, case is
made up against the pastor which it will
take more than the declarations of the
parties to the fault to overthrow. Moulton
says that both Beecher and Mrs. Tilton
confessed to him sin which they now de-
clare was never committed. II is not
shown that Moulton has any interest ex-
cept to state the exact truth. On the other
hand both Beecher and Mrs. 1ilton have
the strongest of human motives to con-
ceal it. And if Beecher has no better de-
fence to make than he has yet presented,
the world will believe him guilty.

Tasker Mills, whittier he was going. to
meet his engagement in company with

to Wilmington he is SAID to have been
quite lively, and even after the train
left this depot he was chatting merrily
with his companions, but before the

But when the party began to disembark
it was discovered that Walker did not

as the liveliest.
