CHICAGO, June 10.-The Times Wash
ington special says: The prospect of an
nexing the rich mining provinces of
Northern Mexico was not killed by the
failure of the Mexican Senatorial excurs-
ion, but is being carefully nourished by
the original projectors of the plan to
gather in these provinces so full of rich
natural resources. The plan is develop
lug through the labors OF the Mexican
Claims Commissioners. whose work has
now drawn nearly to close. The
Claims Commissioners has been playing
a sort of diplomatic game of poker be-
tween the Mexican and American Com
missions. One would heap up set of
outrages, and corresponding amount of
damages, until an advantage would be
gained over the rival. Then the second
would ''raioe" the first, and SO the game
has been going on. The Commission is
limited in its labors to the 3lst of Janu-
AIRY, 1876. The umpire, Sir Edward
Thornton. the English Minister, is then
given six months to consider the cases
submitted. All the cases at present
hot ha
posed of, with the exception of some two
thousand cases, all of which is thought
will be in favor of our Government. At
present the American claims against the
| Mexican Government preponderate over
the Mexican claims some 100000 1t
is now reasonable to suppose that the
entire work of the Commission will be
completed within the prescribed time.
When the work of the Commission is
completed the Mexican Government will
be largely in our debt, then it is thought
that most favorable opportunity will
be had for capturing these provinces to
satisfy the debt.
New York, June l0.-The Brooklyn
Courtroom this morning was more
densely crowded than yesterday. When
Beach entered he was received with a
storm of applause. After a few remarks
from Porter, disclaiming the bitterness in
his attack on Tilton, and stating that he
had not used the phrase attributed to
him yesterday to hell, and say
sent you there. Beach replied he was
sorry if be had misunderstood his
learned friend, but he heard him say
down, down." and naturally thought
he desired to consign Tilton to hell, and
that he thought 30 still. Beach then
turned his address to the jury, and said
an effort had been made to represent
words imputed to Beecher by plaintiff,
and his willingness was such as was for
eign to his style and could not have been
employed by one SO skilled in the use of
language. The word papxysmal was a
good one and known to lawyers con-
nected with the subject of insanity. He
had the curiosity to examine the pub.
lished writings of Beecher, and in one
single sermon had found the word used
repeatedly. Beach then quoted numer
Gus passages from the sermon in which
the words paroxysmal and p ,roxism wert
used in regard to repentance, love ant
other strong emotions. This came
pretty near to paroxysmal kiss. HI
then considered the expression a mora
Niagara. and in his argument said it was
piece of false rhetoric which Beeche
never would have used any more than b,
would have spoken of moral haystack
He considered this to be forcible ant
proper phrase to describe Beecher' posi-
ton. Beecher did stand on the brink o
a Moral Niagara, from which only tn
jury conld save him.
