WLKEsBARRE, June l6.-Resumption
in this region is fact, notwithstanding
the efforts of few of the leaders yester-
day and to-day to undo what was accom-
plished Monday. Tomorrow the Lehigh
and Wilkesbarre Company's works at
Ashlcyville will be started with force
of 225 men. and others will begin opera
tions soon. The miners openly proclaim
their joy at the unexpected turn in affairs.
The Strike has caused loss to this
region OF fully ten million dollars. 1t is
likely that some Of the leaders of the
strike will be refused work. A meeting
of the miners of the SuSquehanna Coal
Company was held Mt Nanticoke last
night. They state that Mr.. Stickney
wishes to reduce their pay more than ten
per cent, and they voted unanimously
not to 90 to work rs long as he persists
in the demand. They will resume at n
reduction of ten per cent. upon last years

The counsel then called attention to
Beecher's letter of February, 1872, IN
which he stated that he was willing TO
step down and out if that would serve
their purposes. beecher, said the coun-
sci, was willing to descend from his high
position on account of the darkness which
surrounded him. That man offering to
abandon his great mission, Offering HIM
self as sacrifice that Illton
could be helped and his
wife and children might be saved. Coun-
sci could not make this more emphatic
or appealing to the sensibilities of the
jury than the language in which this let
ter was clothed. What was there in II
which led this great preacher to offer
himself a> sacrifice to repair the inJu-
rleS which he had done TO Il woman who
had cast herself involuntarily upon his
love? What was there that caused Mr.
Beechcr to say that he was living on the
dragged edge of remorse and despair"
There must have been some reason that
forced this strange yet meaning
expression from his lips; ard yet
the other side tell Us it was
used bl Bcccher ut random and was ut
terIy without any sense or meaning
Webster tells Us that remorse is the keen,
piercing anguish, caused by a conscious
ness of guilt. Henry Ward Beccher
said the speaker, was penitent to his God,
but timid and lying toward his fellow
men, and that WAS not the form of peni-
tence which would save Il man. This
was the remorse Henry Ward Beecher
felt. His friends might say, people reyer-
cnce thee, art thou not retaining lost
seuls?" and his language III the letters,
a have rcpented, | am great, but the
bitterness of death Is on me
and my whole being is tortur-
ed on the ragged edge
of death and despair And when this
man thus broke out in the agony Of his
soul was there no significance to be at
tached to it ? And was this man who ut
tered these words to his God and the man
be- had offended, to be believed when he
said that he was entirely innocent of this
charge

THE BROOKLYN TRIAL.

NEW YORK, June l6-At ten minutes
past eleven o'clock to-day Mr.. Beach con-
tinued his argument for the prosecution
in the suit against Beecher. Taking up
Mrs. Tiltons retraction letter, he said the
word "inculpating' used IN the letter was
not q woman's word and did not belong
to the phraZeOlogy OF the household.
Beecher Uses the same word in his letter
of contritiOn. Beccher testified that Til
ton wrote the letter, but il was written
ut his dictatiun, aS she says Beecher wrote
the letter and she copiedit. Whcn Beech
cr returned to Moultons that night, he
told nu one he had received the retrac-
ton. and if innocent how gladly and
chccriully he would have gone into the
presence of Tilton and told him of 1t.
Moulton was told by Beccher that Tilton
had read him the confession of Mrs. Til
tons charging Beecher with having
sexual intercourse with her, and Mrs.
TitOn wrote letter to her husband
stating she hoped her husband would
never be mi-ird by good woman IA -hr
had been mislrd by good man. This
was sand of tins man Bccchcr, who the
Jury was asked to believe to be all that
was noble and good.
Mr.. Beach Icn revised the Catherine
Gaunt letter in which Mrs.
Tillon says TO her huS-
band, Bless God with me torss Cather-
inc Gaunt," and Now am prepared to
renew the marriage vow and keep il ;ls
the Saviour desired in the heart" Coun-
sci followed this bv reading Mrs. Tilton'S
statement to Rev. DR.. Storrs, and said that
Mr.. Bcecher. ~ her friend and pastor,
had made improper proposals to her and
solicited her to become Il wife to him with
all that name implied. After analysis Of
this and other familiar points in the case
Beach said every effort ut an invcstiga-
tiun into the matter was suppressed by
Bccchcr with the great power which he
exercised in tnat community, and he never
prosecuted inquiry into 1t, hut stamped
it under his feet. There must
have been some consciousness of guilt
which caused him 10 he silent, and to
,tldc the investigation. This man was
to be- Judged according to our knowledge
of men and of his character, and when
we found him sinking in the darkest
puths. we must imputc 10 him the ordi-
nary motives which showed the true
criminal. When Richards was on the
stand the other side refused 10 ask MN
whether. in 1870. he did not hear the
confession OF his sister with regard To her
adultery with Brcchcr: and wrrcaIl these
considerations L. be overlooked, and were

Judge. The indications now are that l.
ID. A-hburnc of Clermont, will be nomi-
mated for the latter office. There has
been much talk about the platform,
and from all these crude suggestions the
indications are that the platform VIII, in
substance, be as follows: Adopting the
financial plank Of last year, will declare
that the Democratic party made the Com

ism and defend them; will declare against
a third term, and the union ofthe church
