MEMPHIS, August 12.-The APPEALS
Helena special says Mr.. Sebastian, Just
arrived from Austin, makes the following
statement: Between 300 and 400 men
from Memphis landed at Shoe Fly, five
miles below Austin, this forenoon and
marched into the town without opposi-
ton Of 8 o'clock. The citizens had sbAn.

year. The death rate In the city Of
Wheeling for the six months ending July
lst, was less than one and one half per
cent Of the population. Counting the rate
however at two per cent per snuum, and
each member Of o mutual aid association
numbering five hundred members would
pay $40 per annum in order 10 provide
$4,000 for their families in case Of death.
This Is probably as cheap provision as
any man can make for his family. How
many Of these aid associations exist In
the city we do not know, noryet the e1-
tent OF thelDmembership, but where they
are conducted on business principles they
should afford the same protection to the
families of those who belong to them that
q well conducted Fire Insurance Com
pany does to those who arc insured in It.

Of all this affair Is that Mr.. Beecher, alter
a long course Of other dalliances more or
less guilty, found In his declining years,
say at 90, his match In Mrs. Tilton; that
is 10 say, she had a highly-wrought and
exalted mind, loved him with that feeling
which would consent to be his daughter
or consent to be his wife, and, having
yielded to the latter inducement, had the
power o! life, love, and spirit 80 keep this
fine old platitudinarian her faithfully
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1874-08-13

Yet Mr.. Beecher did know where TO 20.
He went that night to the house Of Mrs.
Tilton, and got from her q written retrac-
tion. Tho same night Mrs. Tllton told
her husband that she had given the re-
traction, and again Moulton was called In.
Hc went, as ! have described above, to
Mr. Beecher, and compelled him to give
the paper up. From that time forward
Moulton, certain that Beecher would play
tickle, kept all the documents, and that
Is why he has them.
