The Door-keepers in Washington,
and some of the members of the
General assembly-Columbus, are
democratic to an extent that makes
the tolerance and acknowledgment
of them in public, by their fellows,
a little doubtful in some cases, and
absolutely impolitic in others. As
a mental conglOmerate, and a type
of morality and ethics, democracy is

Mrs. Tilton Pleads Guilty.


The following letter was furnished to
the Times for publication by Mr.. Ira B.
Wheeler, Mrs. Elizabeth R. Tilton's eoun-
sci:
Mr.. Ira B. Wheeler:
My DEAR SIR: A few weeks since. after
long months of mental anguish, told, as
you know, few friends, whom had bit
terly deceived, that the charge brought by
my husband, Of adultery between myself
and the Rev. Henry Ward Bsecher, was
true, and that the lie had lived so well
the last four years had become intolerabls
to me.
That statement I now solemnly re-affirm,
and leave the truth with God, to whom al
so l commit myself, my children, and all
who must suffer.
know full well the explanations that
will be sought by many for this acknowl-
edgment; desire to return to my hus-
band, insanity, malice, everything save the
true and only enemy quickened con-
science, and the sense Of what is due to
the cause OF truth and justice. During all
the complications of these years you have
been my confidential friend, and therefore
1 address this letter to you, authorizing
and requesting you to secure its publica-
tion. ELIZABETH R. TILToN.

TRUMBULL CoUNTY.-There seems to be
good deal Of rottenness about the man
ner in which the affairs Of Trumbull coun-
ty have been managed. Some Of the COM
missioners are disgorging money unlaw-
fully drawn from the treasury, others are
being hauled over the Goals, &. B. Kenne-
dy, auditor, is musing behind the bars of
the common Jail, for fraudulent drafts up
on the treasury, and Thomas A. Briarley,
Deputy Treasurer, for aiding and abet-
ting the same, is also under indictment.
The world is running to rottenness and
rascality.
Bsecher persuading Mrs. Tilton that she
is innocent of the great transgression,
gives rather ludicrous aspect to the old
scandal. Beecher's case is somewhat sim
liar to that of the old Doctors of Divinity
who used to meet every once and awhile
during the old antislavery agitation and
fix the thing up so as TO silence those agi-
tations, and before the old fellows could
reach home, they would find the thing af-
ter them again. and another meeting would
be necessary 10 allay the evil So with
Beecher things won't down at his bidding.

not only the Catarrh but all other ailments st the

The chief of the municipal plum

the place of his penal confinement
on Friday the 18th inst. at II o'clock

days but hope was not abandoned
until the morning of his death. His

from a complication of disorders, but
the direct and immediate cause, was
nervous prostration and consequent
clogging of the action of the heart.
The most of the family of the old
man was absent in Europe. He said
to one of his counsel, shortly before
death, with reference to the effect
of confinement upon his health and
fortunes-"Tilden and Fairchild-I

only one-eighth of cent premium.
Such financial logic is calculated, we
suppose, to play the mischief with
some very fine, and very fond theO-
ries. The hobgoblin Ofi,cODtractiOn
is loosing its frightful mien, and some
of those confident chaps who would
see things very clearly in a given
direction are accommodating their
opinions to this logic of events.
The Government having determin-
ed upon the removal of the Ute In
dians from Colorado to reservation
in New Mexico, Brig. John Pope has
been authorized to make the removal,
as opposition is expected, he has been
instructed to use what troops may be
necessary to effect the work. The
Ute tribe-though somewhat split
up into bands-numbers-all told
$4,000. Once located Indians are to
be supplied with domestic animals
and instructed in stock raising.
A second interview between Sec
retary Sherman and the House Com
mittee on Banking and Currency is
reported in the daily papers. The
readiness of his replies shows that he
has well considered all the points
that are likely to arise in respect to
resumption, and that, whatever may
be thought of his opinions, they
cannot be set aside as crude or care
less. He declines to express any
opinion as to the probable effect of
a European war, if there should he
one, on our finances; but he is
strong in his convictions that re-
sumption is practicable by the first
of Jan. next. There is certainly
some reason in his declaration that
it would be impossible to gather all
the U. S. notes and present them in
a steady stream OH the Treasury,
owing to the extent of the country,
the number of hands in which the
the money now Is, and the superior
convenience of paper to gold as a
practical circulating medium. If
fifteen or twenty millions of green
backs were once taken out of circu-
lation the demand for the rest would
in his opinion, bring them up to par.
Whatever may be thought of his
theories on this subject-whether
Over-sanguine or not, there ought to
be practical unanimity in his propo-
sition that it will be time enough for
Congress to repeal the Resumption
Act next fall if it shall then appear
that it is impracticable to resume.
And the indications are that he is
succeeding in bringing Congress to
this opinion.
