A Queer Mess.
From the Chicago Times.l

From the Chicago Tlmes.l
One of Tilton's friends pretends to
know that VIM. M. Evarts was induced
to become Beecher's counsel by belle,
in his innocence, but that since he has
been connected with the case he has
altered his belief and has been DESTROYS
\ to retire. IL is asserted that he has
been prevented only by the most earn
est exertions of Plymouth Church, and
by an addition to his fee of Sl0,OO0,
Persons on the other side declare that
Mr.. Evarts has acted solely through
friendship for Beecher, refusing 10 re
ceivc a penny Of his services.
A man who knows Mrs. Tilton has
offered 10 bet that within six months
she will publicly confess her sin, and
beg to be restored to her husbands IA
vor. Some Of Tilton's acquaintance
express fear that he will take her back.
Bcecler is reported to have lost all uf-
lection for her, regarding her as the
cause Of his arraignment. He is said
to speak very bitterly against her in
private.

Sensible, Very.

Z Mr.. John MotIatt, State commission
cr of immigration, addresses a com
. munication to the Union and American
y in which the following sensihl,
J views are put forth:
"Morc currency alone would no
prove the open sesame to the golden
/; ga.cs Of EIdoradic prosperity, MOI
would its scarcity doom us to the abb
jcct depth Of Lazaronic poverty. We
realized THAT currency is, after all, not
wealtll-only its representative, only
the shadow, not the substance. And
hence, all who put their trust in leg.
"islalivc Icgcrdemain as the means Of
truly increasing our wealth, have ever
been and cvcr will be doomed to dis
appointment.
We must take steps to increase real
wealth as the only sure way to sound,
substantial and permanent prosperity.
TO expects State or people to be pros
porous, to have plenty of money, who
do not utilize their revenues, who do
not produce and sci. more than they
or buy, is pure and unadul-
tcratcd folly. Money, as we have said,
is not wealth-only its representative,
its shadow. TO expect plenty of mon
cy when we don't produce the mate.
rials to purchase it with, is as reason.
rs to expect a bean pole to cast
large a shadow as the trunk of a
oak. That we need more cur
'cncy. do not deny, but we want more
diversity of products, too; we want
more highly cultivated fields and more
If them o corn in our rich val
eys more grass and cattle; more fruit
II II uplands more butter and cheese
PRODUCED more iron mined and man.
iIactnrcd more cotton spun and wove
more shoes made; more wagons and
of home production"
He thinks Immigration would greatly
end to increase and diversity the pro.
luctive industry of the State, and says
n regard to efforts which he will make
o bring it hither:
when lay my plans of operations
before the people, they will sec in them
he sure prospect OF success, and that
hey will at ONCE co operate and enable
he commissioner to carry out a com.
'rchcnsivc plan that will soon bring
and skill and energy to our aid.
No need for dependency. l have
the question in all its details;
AVE the field and see a bright light a.
lead. Meantime, let our people be pa.
lent. In a few days l will lay before
hem plans which | think cannot fail of
'uccess."
