TILDEN'S INCOME.
His Explanation of the Charges against
Him.

NEW YORK. Sept. ID The Herald says it is
Authorized to announce, on information deemed
authentic, not however, from Tilden direct,
that the following will be the line of defence
against the charge of perjury in making his
income returns: In 1861, the year of the al
legged false returns, his two brothers, Henry
and Moses, were in the chemical. manufacturing
business in Lebanon, but were financially EN-
parrassed 10 such degree that ruin was inev-
table unless prompt and ample relief came to
hand. In this crisis Gov. Tilden advanced at
different times large sums of money, amount
ing to several hundred thousand dollars, out of
bis earnings, nearly all of which was lost.
This, he claims, left bis income at the figure
given in his statement.
