have to carry its own rations;" but he did
not say what became of the old men, wo-

fertile valley With regard to the NOR

1868, contain d the following article;
"In reply to the resolution ofthe House
of Representative calling upon the Sec

twenty-five, and, two of the latter out of
every fifteen.

TILTON-BEECHER

The Tilton- -Beecher trial at Brooklyn
still drags, though the evidence approach
es conclusion. A sensation was produced
on Monday of last week, when Mrs Til
ton got permission to address the court
and after few words Introductory sent
up letter to Judge Nelson. The follow
ing is the letter and answer, the latter
being given on Tuesday;
BROOKLYN, May 8, 1875
Judge Nelson; ask the privilege from
you for few words in my own behalf. !
feel very deeply the injustice of my posi-
ton in law and before the court now sit
ting, yet since your last decision | have
been so sensible of the power of my enc
mics that my soul cries out before you
and the gentlemen of the jury that they
beware how by divided verdict they
consign to my children false and ire
vocable stain upon their mother. For five
years past have been the victim OF cir
cumstances most cruel and unfortu' ate,
struggling from time to time only for a
place to live honorably and truthfully.
Released for some months from the will
by whose power, unconsciously, | criml-
mated myself again and again, declare
solemnly before you, without fear Of man
and by faith Of God, that am innocent
of the crimes charged against me. |
would like to tell my whole sad story
truthfully. l acknowledge the frequent
falsehoo1s coming from me by compul-
sion, though at the same tipe unwilling
to reveal the secret of my married life,
which only the vital importance of my
position makes necessary. | assume the
entire responsibility of this request, un-
known to friend or counsel of either side,
and await your honorable decision.
With great respect,
ELIZABETH R. TILToN.
The following is Judge Nilson's reply;
CHAMBER OF CRY Court,
BROOKLYN, N. Y, May i, 1875, !
Mrs. Tilton; | am directed by Chief
Justice Nelson to return your letter, as it
cannot be read in court; also to state that
in civil cases counsel have the light TO
refrain from ealing particular witness,
however competent, and that neither the
Court nor the client can interfere with
the eXerc ses of that right.
The Judge also instructs me to say
that the question, whether you could be
a witness, stands on quite another ground
from that considered when your husband
was called and sworn. He was compe-
tent witness to testify in his behalf
against third person defendant and
while the policy of the law was, to some
extent, involved, there was no express
statute in the way, but the statute Of May
1Sth 1867, expressly declares the wife to
be incompetentasa witness for or against
the husband.
Yours, respectively,

Clerk of City Court, &c.

The market this morning opened quiet
and inactive. The dullness of the New
York market and decline in Liverpool
had a corresponding effect on the mar
ket here, and in consequence the market
was heavy and depressed. Estimated
sales for the day, $50 bales; sales yester-
day footed up l25 bales. New York
spots were dull, with more sellers than
buyers, and futures weak. Liverpool
was dull and easier, with sales of 5000
bales. New Orleans was quiet and IN.
