TiltOn and Beecher.
some work

NEW YoRK, July 22.
Tilton states that the publication of his
statement was unauthorized by him, and
that there were but two copies, one in his
own possession, the other in possession of
the committee The committee would rue
the day they gave the statement to the
public, and it was a crime against Beecher
and himself for the committee to give
these facts to the public, as no one but
Beecher could have extracted the state
He said he had struggled for peace for
four years, but now the struggle had come
he felt victory was his (Titons) because
he was in the right. He further stated he
had left his home to his wife and children.
Oliver johnson says Tilton did wrong to
print his letter, and believed Beechers re-
ply will make matters straight The
clerk of Plymouth church says that
Beecher will make prompt statement.
Rev. Mr.. Halliday, assistant pastor OF Ply
mouth church, says he would not believe
anything against Bcccher if fifty Tiltons
said it, and nothing coming from Tilton
will shake confidence of the church in him.
At the meeting of the Bcecher investigat-
ing committee yesterday afternoon Tilton
was questioned as TO many portions of his
statement, TO which he answered without
hesitation. He declined to submit the orr.
ginal letters and documents contained II
his statement. On being cross-examined
he became nervous, burst into tears and
requested exemption from further exami-
nation, which was granted. The legal adj
visers of Beecher say the investigation will
cxonerate Beecher, and will show the
| charges of crminality to be unfounded

PouLTNEy, July 81, 1874.
Editor Rutland Globe. see that cor
respondent in THE GLOBE of Yesterday
says he has bought largely of fruit trees
apples, pears and plums-for the last ten
years, and principally of the Rochester
nurseries. ''Out of 100 trees of twelve
years growth" he says he has ''lost as
many as one-tifth of standard apples, and
then he says he proposes to replace them
with apple trees of Vermont growth, if
they can be had, and inquiries "Who has
the trees 2" etc.
1t may not as yet be extensively known,
but such is the fact, that Elijah Ross,
Esq, of this town, has on his place, loca-
ted near this village and within 100 rods of
the Poultney railroad depot, very fine nur-
series, IN which he has in various stages of
growth &c. 900 young trees The varieties
consist of the Baldwin, Rhode Island
greening, northern spy, yellow beethoven,
king of Tompkins county. Hubbardston
nonesuch, winter strawberry, English rus
set, Tolman sweet and others of the winter
variety, and Fameuse, Colvert, Champlain,
red astrachan, early harvest, sweet bough
and several other varieties maturing in fall
and summer
He also has the leading varieties of crat
apple trees. Mr.. Ross has been interested
in nurseries known as the Cumberland
nurseries, and located at Cumberland Head
in Plattsburgh, N. Y.
He expects to supply some portion OF
| his customers the coming season from TIT
Cumberland nurseries, but afternext spring
the supply will be from the Poultney nur
series. OF the smaller fruits lie has a good
variety. Your correspondent properly sug
gests the advantage of Vermonters sup
plying themselves with Vermont trees.
There Is another advantage. The nur
series are here where they may be seen, ant
/ will guarantee that no better cared for
more thrifty or healthy young trees can b'
found than may be seen in the nurseries o
Mr.. Ross, in Poultney.

of the Canadian representatives was in favor
of reciprocity, but with few more con-
cessions on the part of the United States
than are contained in the proposed treaty.
The most prominent opposition speech was
by Mr.. Elder, who contended that the coast
ing trade is not available to the Canadians,
nor is anything done for the Provinces In
return for the free maritime privileges on
the Canadian lakes and rivers. The Prov
inces have the fisheries, but have no Allan
tic coast trade such as they require. IT
New Brunswick should transfer her raw
material Tor building TO the United States,
the Canadian flag would fade from the seas.
The board finally disposed of the subject by
referring it to a committee to report at the
next annual meeting.

A MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.
FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.
A Former Rutland Man Implicated.

BosToN, July 90.
Canaan, N. H., is excited over the mys-
FERROUS disappearance of Theodore Boullet.
He was last seen June Sd, and his disap-
pearancc singular lie had quite good
education and plays the violin remarkably
well. Late in the spring he came TO Goose
Pond, in Canaan, for work MS wood
chopper. He left on the afternoon of the
date mentioned with his AK and said he
was going to a neighbors to pay bill he
owed.
No traces OF him since can be found.
No anxiety was expressed for a week or
more after his disappearance. Last week
it was said human hair and other indica-
tons of foul play had been discovered.
This report increased the excitement, and
dillgent search has been made and no
traces yet found of him.
WILLARD II. CoMsToCK SUSPECTED.
About mile from the pond and half
mile from the public road is the Comstock
shanty, whose inmates are frequently men,
toned in connection with Boullett's disap-
pearancc.
In this gloomy retreat lives Willard II.
Comstock and his family, consisting of his
wife, two children, his wfc's sister. Miss
Nettie Prescott, aged sixteen years, and
until within few days ago Frank Hall,
boarder. OF Comstock's former history
little or nothing can be learned. lie is
Yankee, some thiriy-five years old. and is
said to have come from New York state.
He was formerly in the liquor and grocery
business at Rutland, VI. 1t has always
seemed mystery to the Goose Pond peo
pie why Comstock located in that place.
The opinion of the entire ncighborbotd
is that Boulct has been fouly dealt with
and his body sunk in the pond or buried
deep in the forest swamp near its shore
They also believe that the Comstocll family
can throw some light on Comstocks dis
appearance.
