The Day of Judgment Letter.

Henry Ward Beecher's letter of June 1, 1873, sometimes termed the "Day of Judgment Letter." was explained by him while on the witness stand. MT.
 Evarts read it, and questioned the wit ness in reference to the meaning of it's several passages. The expression, "one who has about finished his world life, was reference, the witness said, to the feeling often experienced by him that he had not long to live. The words " de- vices by which we have saved ourselves , were declared to be reference to the 1873, in order to give the latter an op- against him and regain public favor.
 "But the term 'save ourselves, in terposed Judge Nelson, when Mir.
 of the clause. cit was a partnership.
 the witness. The phrase, "He had condoned his wife's fault," was written,
 MT. Beecher said, in reference to the to believe Mrs. Hilton had conceived for him. And by the words, "not to be- tray his wife or leave his children to a blight" he meant, he said, the unhap- piness that would be brought upon MT.
 Tilton's family should he--Mr. Beecher reveal the supposed state of Mrs. Til toms feelings toward him. MT. Fuller ton interrupted the explanation of this letter by frequent objections. ''I shall write for the public a statement that will
 bear the light of the judgment day, , was merely the expression the witness said, of determination which he had then formed. While writing the clause,
 "My last Sunday, and preaching my last sermon," MT. Beecher declared he had no intention of making reference to any thought of suicide. It was only the ex- pression of the idea, often in his mind, that he had not long to live. In this connection MT. Beecher spoke of the exaltation and depression of spirits which he often experienced. The latter in his youth had amounted almost to hypo- chondria, a disease with which his father and ancestors had suffered. f

Trouble in Prospective.

Aft11ct1Ons seen ln prospective are more appalling than when they actually arrive, for there are few but are attended by some alleviating circumstances that deaden their force. Why, then, should we disturb what little happiness we may have by anticipating trouble, and reflect ing on what might occur, which may possibly never transpire with us. The folly of this is aptly illustrated iu the following anecdote:
 A mother, desiring to visit her neigh Dor, set her daughter, girl of sixteen, at work in the house, and gave her par ticIllar instructions concerning the bread, which she was to bake. The mother departed, and after remaining away some hours returned and found the stove red-hot, and her daughter in an- other room, in the greatest agony of tears. The mother was amazed, and in quired the cause, and after much entreaty the daughter answered.:
 ''I was thinking if I was married and should have dear little child, and it should live to run about, aud I should be baking as l now am, and l should leave the stove door open, and the dear little thing was to crawl ill and burn it. self to death, what terrible thing it would be. O., dear, what should l do ?'' Let us not smile at the imaginary trouble of the girl, while half the ills we feel are equally imaginary, but meet those that exist with fortitude, and they will become less formidable in propor- | tion as they are met with frmness.

The Black Hills,

Gen. Sherman was lately interviewed in relation to the Black Hills. The general expressed himself with emphasis on this subject, and the reporter to whom he was talking was not long in ascertain ing that he considered the excitement premature.
 Do you think that gold can be found there in large quantities 2"
 "No. There are many other mining districts in other States much more ac- cessible, and which are far more valuable than those of the Black Hills.
 How is it, then, that such a .furore has been created?"
