NEw York, Nay 25.-Ths Board of
Trade adopted resolutions declaring the
prevalence of smuggling has had direct
tendency to demoralizs the Customs ser
vice, and to exiortionste exorbitant tar
ills. That probably the most effective
mode of supprsssing smuggling is to es-
tablish a revenue tariff, and 10 reform
the civil service. and that the Board pro-
tests against the disgraceful immortality
of the Wholesale dealing in smuggled
goods by merchants.
The Times says that all the stock job
bling operation on this side of the Allan
tic or the other cannot save Erie from
going into the hands Of receiver. The
exposures of two years go clearly to fore
shadow that result.

NEW YORK, May 25.-In the Beeeaer
case this morning, ex-Judge Porter be-
fore continuing his argument for the
defense, said he would close to-day, and
Evarts on the same side, would imme-
diately follow. Porter, on resuming his
address to the jury said Tilton had made
recantation of this charge of pdultery,
and then comes into court of Justice
and asks for verdict. This paper could
not nave been prepared to protect his
wife's honor, because she had then
left his roof three days before
this paper was prepared, and was
living at the house of Mrs. Ovington.
The accusation of Sunday was false, and
Tuesday he retracted it because he knew
it was false. Porter then spoke of n
lady who had been Indignantly traduced
by man who had not hesitated to
falsely accuse his own wife and his
honored pastor. Mrs. Morse had no
alternative and therefore she was the
victim of this leader of free love, but
this lady commanded in degree the
respect which would never be obtained
by Theo. Tilton neither in this city or
any other place. This is the man who
was trying to keep his wife's disgrace
from becoming known, and all he had
to do was to keep his apostolic lips
closed, those lips that Elizabeth Il. Til
ton loves to this day. Francis D. Mou-
ton was one of the class of dangerous
men. Two years ago he was leading
member of one of the most Trustworthy
firms IN this city. To-day through some
cause that great house has met with the
disasters threatened to Plymouth Church.
Frank Moulton was early brought into
relations with Butler from suits in which
his firms was engage in the prosecution,
pushed by the informer Jaynes, and
oddly enough the counsel for the prose-
cution was Benjamin F. Butler. When
the litigation ended a firm friendship
sprang up between these parties and
Moulton, the informer and the informers
counsel The plaintiffs party had en-
deavored by fraud and strategem to Sc
cure Tracy's services, counsel for
Beecher, and Sherman, another of de-
PENDANTS counsel. kept ali at bay. When
Butler was rejected as one of the counsel
for Beecher he drew up one of the most
adroit and able papers ever published,
which was intended to kill Beecher at
one blow, and which was put forth at
the time as Moulton's own production.
