OFFICIAL REPORT, AND LAWYERS CORREC
TIONS.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
SIR: | have observed with some annoyance,
as TIE TRIBUNE is my avorte paper that the accuracy
OF no other report the Beecher trial is called In
question in court Thus far the introductons, msprnts,
and comments Of THE TRIBuSE report only have been
alluded TO by the lawyers Now, why Is this III cannot
proceed from malice on the part OF the conse OF one

lit is of the utmost Importance in all law trials
and particularly in long as this that the
official record of the court should be accurately kept
and that the counsel should agree upon and accept
it from day TO day. The TRIBUNE having informed
Judge Nelson and the counsel on both sides before
the trial began that it purposed to publish daily
verbatim report OF the proceedings it was agreed
upon by the Court and lawyers that The TRrBUNE's
report should be accepted as the Official record pend
ing tie trial. At the suggestion of Judge Nelson,
Mr. Bigelow, the official stenographer of the court
was associated with the stenographers who furnish
The TRIBUNE report and il thus became the official
report. From the notes of these several stenogra-
piers the report AZ printed daily, is carefully cor
rected as far as misprints misspelled names, &C.,
are concerned and this corrected copy will finally be
signed by the Judge as the official report of the
case and filed in court, the law requires. Hence
the necessity of correcting the few errors made-and
they are very few, for il is common comment among
the hundreds of law stenOgraphers in the city that
no report Of such magnitude was ever furnished
with equal rapidly and accuracy. The reports of
other papers not, of course, alluded to- for the
simple reason that they Of no value to the Court

TEACHINGS OF PROMINENT PREACHERS.
SERMONS BY TIE REV. HENRY WARD BEEcHEh
TIE REV. c. C. TIFFANY, D. D., THE REV. DR.
IT.. W. BELLOWS, THE REV. HUGH MILLER
THOMPSON, D. D., THE REV. On J. v. ELDER
THE REV. J. N. PULLMAN, THE REV. J. Be
ATCHIsON, AND THE REV. FATHER IDEALLY.
A wide range of topics and considerable diversity
of utterance are shown in the examples OF sermons
preached yesterday, which are presented on this
page this morning The Rev. Henry Ward Bcecher,
in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, considered the per-
manence of fundamental religious truths, and aimed
to show that they would not be impairedor changed
by the progress of science and the increase OF know-
edge. In the Unitarian Church Of All
Souls, at Fourth-avc. and Twenty-second-
ST., the pastor, the Rev. Dr. Bel
lows, dwelt upon the blessings flowing
from confidence in Christ, with especial reference to
that of restfulness. The Rev. j. N. Pullman IN the
Universalist Church of Our Savior, in Fifty
seventhst, Eighth spoke Of consciousness
of immortality. In Christ Church, Protestant Epis-
copal, Ffth-ave. and Thirty ffthst, the rector,
the Rev. Dr. Hugh Miller Thompson, took for his
theme the revelation of God in the Trinity. In the
Roman Catholic Church Of st. Francis Xavier,
in West Sixteenth-st., the Rev. Father Dealy
preached upon the necessity Of prayer The Rev. DR..
j. F. Elder in the Madison Avenue Baptist Church
had for his subject the nature and dignity OF Cody
fear. Christ the True Vine' was the ground
thought of the discourse of the Rev. J. b. Atchison
in the Eighteenth Street Methodist Episcopal
Church. In she Protestant Episcopal Church of the
Atonement at Twenty-eighth-st and Madson-ave.
the rector the Rev. Dr. C. C.. tiffany, preached upon
the duty of men TO spread the Gospel The heat was
so oppressive yesterday that the congregations in
most of the churches indicated tho approach OF
the time when large part Of the usual attendants
will be at the seashore or in the country.

Assessments.

Several mining companies have levied
assessments within the past few days,
and o. these companies have kept their
accounts with tho Bank Of California,
other than legitimate motives have been
attempted 10 DO assigned for this action.
We see no reason. however. for unkind
criticism. Among the most valuable
business Of the Bank Of California were
the accounts OF mining companies. which
disburso monthly largo suns for ex-
penses. and sometimes. with those Of
better fortune. in the shape Of dividends;
and Il not unirequently happened that
these accounts were overdrawn when the
temporary avoidance Of On assessment
was considered desirable. because the
security was known to Be- good and the
repayment certain. In the present con-
dition Of Affairs at the bank, these 40
commodations must DO denied. and as
the closing Of any mine involves great
loss. far beyond mere delay, assens-
ments become necessary 10 provide for
tho future. Payment OF these lsvies
need not be made for sixty days. and
long before that timo Il In hoped that
business will DO 20 brisk and money 70
abundant that no hardship will be en-
tailed upon the stockholden.-S. >.
