To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
Mr. Ira A. Paine, in todays issue of your journal

ments hoped had made offers tempting enough to
draw out the verest stickler or my European trip

tell its own tale. The Wallace offer was received by me
after had made every arrangement for return which
could be then broken up without considerable loss
My proposition to return in May next to meet Mr. Wal
lace of the Nottingham Club any man. still holds
That Mr. Paine persists in misunderstanding what to
others is so plain may be attributed to his natural
cupidity or stupidity However, to put an end
TO mere talk, glad Mr. Paine has
screwed his courage up to the point of accept
ing my offer to shoot for fair stake He must be
aware, however, that have already engagement to
hunt In the field which will prevent my being at the
Baltimore meeting in October But take his offer for
Wednesday next at Deerfoot Park BROOKLYN amount to
be 81 600 TO be deposited at the Office of the Spirit of

lation that may be promptly assured of something
coming of all this talk, as am very DESTROYS of getting
back homo after my long absence 1t lies with Mr.
Paine TO make good his Boosting. For myself fatty
confess that do not anticipate meeting and as an
earnest Of that feeling have this morning deposited $50
with Wilkes SPIRIT TO be gift to Mr. PANE should no
come forward with the 81 600 stake on Monday next
In other words have wagered $50 to nothing that he
dare not come sharply to the score.
In case the match Is brought about the gate money
must go to the winner l am particular on this point
from past experience IN sharing know that Mr.
Paines ideas of and tln1Rl in reference to gate

The Democratic COnVentiOE-PrObable
Results Of TO.dsT-GOVernOr Allen
to be RenOminateds

COLUMBUS, June ia large number
of delegates, representing every county
in Ohio, are here in readiness for the
State Democratic convention to-mOr-
row. Governor Allen will be renomi-
mated by reclamation. s. F. Cary and
s. F. Hurt, both of Hamilton county,
are mentioned for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
1t may be that the contest between these
candidates will necessitate a third man,
which may be Robert E. Reese, of
Hooking. There are seven candidates
for State auditor, E. NJ. Green, of Shell.
by, and E. B. Eshelman, of Wayne,
being prominent. There are five candi
dates for treasurer, nine for attorney
general and four for supreme Judge. In
dications now are that J. r. Ashburn, of
Clermont, will be nominated for the lat
ter office. There has been much talk
about platform, and from all these
crude suggestions the indications are
that the platform will, in substance,
adopt the financial plan Of last year;
Will declare that tie Democratic party
made the constitution and free schools,
and will cherish and defend them; will
declare against third term and union
of church and State. Hon. s. s. Cox,
of New York, upon invitation of the
young mems Democratic club of Co
lumbUs, addressed an audience of about
two thousand persons at the City hall
this evening, upon the political issues Of
the day. The speech was enthusiastic
ally received. A short speech was also
made by Governor Allen.

the storm in his hand and prevent
/ ing II from bursting on their heads
/ but MOultOn? Why did Beecher say
/ that the Letter to Mrs. Tilton should be
returned to him, and not be permitted
| to miscsKry, IL there was no secret in il
| The counsel called attention to Beecher's
letter Of February, 1873, in which he
stated he was willing to " step down and
out, )" il that would serve their purposes.
BeecheT was willing to descend from his
high position on account Of the darkness
which surrounded him-that man offer
/ ing TO abandon his great mission, and
Offering himself as a sacrifice that Til
ton could be helped and his wife and
children might be saved. The counsel
could not make this more emphatic or
appealing to the sensibilities of the Jury
than the language in which this letter
was clothed. What was there in it
which led this great preacher to offer
himself as a sacrifice to repair the inju-
ries which he had done to q woman who
had cast herself Involuntary upon his
love? What was there that caused
Beecher to say that be was "living on
the ragged edge of remorse and de.
spair?" There must have been some
reason that forced this strange yet mean
ing expression from his lips; and yet the
other side tell Us that 1t was used by
BsecheT at random, and was utterly
without sense or meaning. Webster
tells US that remorse is the keen, pierre
ing anguish caused by s consciousness
Of guilt. Henry Ward Beecher, said the
speaker, was penitent 10 his God, but
timid and lying toward his fellow men.
That wss not the form of penitence
which would save man; it was the re-
morse Henry Ward Beecher felt. His |
friends might say the people reverence |
the art, though not reclaimiDg lost souls, |
and his language in the letters is, 81 |
have repented; l am great, but the Bit |
terness of death is on me, and my whole |
being is tortured on the ragged edge of |
death and despair;n and when this man |
thus broke out in the agony Of his great |
soul, was there no significance to be at |
tsched to it, and was this man who ut
tered these words to his God and the
man he had offended, was he to be be-
lieved when he said that he was entirely
innocent of this charge?
Adjourned.
1t was stated during recess that Mr..
Beach wonld not finish his address be-
fore Friday evening, and in that case
Judge Nelson said he would not charge
the jury until Monday. 1t is now con-
sidared certain that Tilton's counsel will,
at the conclusion of Mr.. Beach's ad-
dress, ask that the case be reOpened for
the admission of newly discovered evil
dence.

an act creating q commission to report ,

the general shipping act, and for othe
purposes.
a communication was received from
Barton Able, president Of the merchants
exchange, st. Louis, stating that thai
body would not withdraw from the ma.
tiopRl board.
On motion q resolution authorizing
the withdrawal of the st. Louis mer-
chants exchange was reconsidered and
voted down.
Ihe subject of amendment to the act
| I75t relative 10 collisions on rivers, was
discussed and referred to the executive
| committee. The evils and abuses in the
transportation business was the next
subject discussed.
On motion the subject Of bills of la
| DING was referred to 8 committee con-
sisting of Bsyard, Welsinger and
| GrOvlOr, and the snbject OF rates of
| transportation was referred to a special
committee, viz: THOROUGH, Eggleston,
Levi, Edison and Pstten,
The succeeding proposition was that
submitted by the board of trade Of Mo-
bile, proposing that the national govern
ment shall open without delay uninter-
Tupted water communication between
the Tennessee river and the deep water
OF Mobile bay.
Mr.. Price, Of Mobile, advocated the
proposition in au address of great
length, in which be urged that it was of
nstlonal Importance, as much as for
any local benefit. This gentleman also
offered substitute for the original reso-
luton, providing that instead of the
government experimenting or paying
for the proposed wster-course, the board
OF trade should declare for its expedien-
cy, the enterprise then to be conducted
by private capital.
Messrs. Hayes and Bsyard opposed
the whole project as one in which the
government should not interfere.
A motion by Mr.. Bayard to indefi-
nitely postpone the subject was agreed
to.
The next proposition was an amend
ment to the national banking law, sub
mitted by the board of trade of Chica-
go. After brief discussion the resolu-
ton was submitted to vote and lost.
After various amendments to the
constitution Of the national board, the
convention adjourned to reassemble at
quarter apast nine tomorrow
morning, to visit in a body the new
Masonic temple.
The proposition relative to the re-
sumption Of specie payments, submit
ted by the Philadelphia board Of trade,
has been made special order Of bust
