A young lady remarked to compu-
MON in conversation the other day,
that she would never paint her cheeks
again before attending q funeral. "Why
not?" asked her friend. Because"
replied the Young lady, II was painted
up wheh I attended funeral last sum-
mer, and never, wanted to. cry so bad
in my life, and was getting my hand
kerchief ready, when. glancing around
at -. I saw That coarse yellow skin of
hers through the tear tracks, and it
looked horrible; I never had such hard
work to hold t6y tears in since I was
born. I'm done painting for funerals.
Mrs. SwisshelIn. advises ladies to
sponge themselves we'll with alcohol
and water twice day. We would be
glad to know whether the alcohol is to
be taken internally or externally; also,
whether the water might not be omit
ted. Perhaps the medicine is to be
taken as John MoGoodwin was in the
habit of taking brandy for badness.
de would rub the stuff on his scalp to
make the hair grow and then put some
inside to olinch the roots.

"Ah, ladies, said an old epicure, as
he opened bottle of wine. "What is

Notes From BROOKLYN.

Gen. Tracy says Mr.. TiIton never
charged Mr. Becchcr with criminaIity
with Mrs. Tilton. No such charge was
ever made or believed 10y Mr.. 1iIlom.
But. some four Years ago. Mr.. Tilton
claims To have received information
which led him to charge Brerhcr with
having made IL dishonoIahlr suggestion
To his (Tiiton'S) wife. This is he cN-
tent of the charge. and the only charge
Mr.. 1iltom has ever made against
leecher. And it is said that Mr.. Beech
or holds IL letter from Mrs. Tiltom deny
ing the truth of the charge
Rev. Leonard Bacon. to whom Til
tons letter was addressed. stated to
Rev. DIR. Buddin%ton soon after the
publication. that if Plymouth Church did
not reply within ~ hours 10y IL suit for
libel III behalf of its pastor. it would
have no case on which it could stand
before the Christian world. He also
said that if Tiltnn had not published

10y Mr.. Tilton, last week. who did not

Years. the tide of public sentiment

of the document, to show that have
| just ground to resist the imputation
that | am the creature of his magma

In conclusion, the common impress
sion that have circulated and prompt
ed scandals against Mr.. Beecher is not
true. | doubt if any other man in
Brooklyn, during the whole extent of
the last four Years, has spoken to SO
few persons on this subject us have
done. A mere handful of my intimate
friendS-who had Il right to understand
the clSc-are the only persons to whom
! have ever communicated the facts
To-all other persons, have been dumb
resisting all questions, and refusing
all explanations.
If the public have heretofore consid-
cred my silence as ineXplicable, let my
sufficient motive be now seen in the
Just forhcarance which | felt morally
bound To show to a man who had sent
me a written and absolute apology.
But my duty to continue this for
bcarancc ceased when the spirit of that
apology WAS violated to my injury hv
its author or his agents. These viola
tions have been multitudinous already.
and they threaten To multiply in the
future. forcing me to protect myself
against them i'll advance. particularly
against the canning devices of the clerk
of the church. who, acting as an at
torncy. appears to he conducting this
business against me as if it were "A ease
at law.
Had the fair spirit which | had II
right t" expect from Plymouth church

tlnucd to vest in silence ON Mr.. Beech

mainder of my life would have per
United any public word of mine to al
Jude t" the otfense or the offender.
But the Injurious measures which the
author of this apology has since per
united his church to take against me
without protest on his part measures
leading to the misrepresentation of my
case and character by the church to
the council. and 10y the council to the
general public involving gross injuries

waited 10y Your writings all these in
dlrtmcntS. cnnioinin" to Ole end. have

In your capacity as eN-modcrator of
