The New York Tribune is very fulsome
in its praises of Beecher, and asserts his
innocence on all occasions. Il seems.
however, that this is all paid for, the
New York Times stating it as fact that
the Tribune gets five dollars per column
fer its ,erbatim report of the trial and
remarks, the bill being paid by Plymouth
Church. Plymouth has thus paid the
Tribune so far $4,000 on account. That
accounts for the T.ibMne's sturdy cham
pionship for Beecher and his church.

Library, Mt Florence, are now to be seen
thirty volumes of Venetian gazettes, in
manuscript, the last OF which is dated in
the sixteenth century. The Venetian
Conservatives clung to their script after
printing wab ON accomplished fact. The
epoch of the Spanish Armada, in Eng

newspaper. In the British Museum are
preserved several newspapers which were

7HERE IS CONFLICT
in tho above when compa,ed NTH what the SEP
casa OF Mr.. He.ting he denies that he ever
created such q bill; aud in the case ot
3Ir, johnson he claims to have paid for
Whatever he bought. There is evidently mis-
take somewhere, and in the Fofsyrh-Periolat
fight somebody is likely to suffer who does not
explain the entire situation: II 30, they
for the charge Is serious ono,
and, although passed by the present Grand
jury, may meet a different fate with the next.
Tho failure Of the i'tm Of Forsyth e. Co. to aend
tho Commissioners bills for what they purchased
j. q theory that can scarcely serve to explain
away the had appearance Of the transaction CO.
pecialy il view iof the Recommendation Of the
jury in reference to the county'R fhrther dealipg
WITH pe-iol.t, and the showing made n

ths explanation is going On among those accused
xbove Of accepting bribes id the award Of con-
tracta to Forsyth d Co., IN 1874, It would not be
au,1ss for
OTHER aIE1BEns TO EXPLAIN
their subsequeEt dealings With Periolat alone,
for in this connection it is alleged that several
members not mentioned above have an exceed
insly bad showing on his books dating from the
1st uf December last. The next Grand Jury,

with tho firm ia explained to b. that a few years
enterprise in connection with ST. Joseph's
Church to sell iu New York. Mr. Herting came
to him subsequently, and demanded the money,
which he had advanced although he had not re-
a1izsd from the tickets. The amount advanced
was charged to him later, and subsequently
transferred.
The idea Of Kimberly receiving one-third of
the profits on contracts held with the county by
tha firm Of Forsyth Co. for the last yeas is not
believed, for Forsyth and Periolat lad a firm

thirds Of the profits and Perio1at tie balapee,
