MR.. KERR's FIRST BROADsIDE.

HIS SPEECH AT BROwNSTowN ON SATURDAY.
The Seymore Democrat has this to say of
the first speech of the Hon.. Nj. G. Kerr in
Jackson county: Thisweell he will speak at
five other places i'm thecounty. The opening
meeting of the democratic campaign in this
county, came off al BrowDstown last Satur-
day. 1t was complete success in numbers
and spirit. Mr.. Kerr's speech was devoted to
a fair discussion of pending issues, and Sc
we're condemnation and arraignment of the
leaders of the republican Iparty. He demon
| strated that in every essential element
of craftsmanship, they have signally
failed from their first entry into
power until the present day, and
that they blunderers in war. and in
peace. In the settlement ofquesti0ns arising
from the war they bad not only failed, but
had pursued a policy alike contrary to the
constitution OF the country and the prin-
ciples of American ibery, and their 'recon-
struction" had not only impoverished, bat
robbed the people of the South, until they
were almost hopelessly burdened with debt
and taxation; until the sufferings
of those people emitted them 10 the
sympathy OF mankind. Their adj
ministration of the affairs of the
country had been the most corrupt of any
| in history. The corruotion of the govern
ment of the District of COlumb ia was only a
sample of that introduced in al most every
department of the government, and he de-
me ns.rated that the only hope for the couu-
| try was to drive the Republican leaders from
power. 1t was nonsense to expect that
men who had stolen millions, or per-
mitted others to steal them, could pos
sibly reform the government. In ad-
miniStcriDg the finances of the coun-
try they had likewise Numbered, to use no
harshcr term. They had pursued policy
the direct effect of which was to benefit the
| wealthy and Cypress the poor, and TO use the
language of old Tom Benton, they had null
tipled nabobs and paupers. The party was
controlled by the money interests of the
country, while the interests of the people
were entirely ignored or never thought OF.
Aud so also of the tariff. 1t had been
made, not in the interests of the people, but
OF the manufacturers OF the country. Tho
tariff, under republican administrations,
vas violation of the constitution, and a
robbery OF the people.

MISS kNTHONY,S STORY.

THE LEAKAGE OF THE scANDAL-MRs. TIL
TONS GOOD RESOLUTIONS FAIL.
\ special to the Chicago Tribune from
LesveDworth, Kan, of the Goth inst, gives
Col. Anthony's account of his learning of
the scandal: Col. Anthony, Susan BIS
brother. told your correspondent to-day that
be first heard the scandal story from the lips
of bis sister in Washington one year ago.
Susan b. then told HIM that she was guest
in Tilton's house when a violent domestic
scene occurred. She rel ired to her own room
to avoid it, and was presently followed by
the door, placing the bedstead
against it. to keep Tilton on the
outside. Tilton accused his wife of adultery
with Beecher, and she replied with the accu-
satiOn that be had procured all abortion for
a young lady in Brook lyn, whom he had
seduced, calling the lady by name. That
night Miss Anthony and Mrs. Tilton slept
together, and, during a conversation, the
latter, in seeming mental distress. impaired
the secret of guilty intrigue with Beecher.
Miss Anthony asked her how she came TO
yield TO Beecher's advances; if he used force,
to which Mrs. 'TiltOn replied no force was
used, she yielding without Knowing why
she did so. She averred that Beecher treat
ed her with the kindness of child. She re-
solved many times to yield no more, but
as often her good resolutions failed. This is
the whole substance of Susan B. Anthony's
story, as related to her brother. He is of
the opinion that his sister will not testify in
the case unless compelled to do so i'm court.
