BEECHER IN TEARS.

]
to Brooklyn, New York, recently, and
while there he went to Beecher's
church, and describes matters that
came under his view IN this way:
Beeohor began his revival 10 the lee.
ture room of his church yesterday after.
noon. There was a fragrant bouquet
upon his table, and the richly dressed
women who glided in shook variety
of perfumes from their laces, their en-.
broidered handkerchiefs, and their
nosegays. There was a good sprnk.
ling of men, but they were principally
the richer members, who could get
away from business early. Mr.. Thos.
G. Shoarman, who sat upon one of the
side seats, wept copiously. Beecher
said it was not to be meeting for ex.
hortation, but that he wished those
who had experiences to relate to tell
them briefly, and to pray earnestly
and sincerely.
Requests for prayers came from
every part Of the room. To one lady
who asked for prayers for her son,
Beecher said:
"Oh, | knew him almost before he
was born. | knew his father and his
mother when they were children"
The Rev, Edward Beecher led in
prayer for those for whom prayers had
been requested, and Beechor followed.
He was much overcome by emotion
and wept freely, until his eyes and
cheeks were red.
As the meeting was about to close
Mr.. Thomas G.. Shcarman said that he
had received news of the death in a
distant land of one of the most devoted
friends of Plymouth Church, who, dur.
ing the trials through which the church
had passed, was one OF the pastors fer.
vent and useful friends. He referred
to Mrs. Maria ovington, the wife Of
Mr. Il. j. 0vington.
Mrs. Ovington took Mrs. Elizabeth
Tilton to her home when she quilted
her husbands house at the outbreak
of the Beecher scandal, and kept Mrs.
Tilton as her guest until after the trial
OF the famous case of Tilton against
Beecher She was one of the princi.
pal witnesses for the defense upon that
trial During her stay with Mrs.
Ovington Mrs. Tilton made several
statements acquitting her pastor Of the
charges of adultery which Theodore
Tilton made against him, but upon
leaving Mrs. ovingtons and the circle
OF friends in Plymouth Church she re.
called these statements and published a |
card confirming her husbands charges
she still insists are truc.1
Mr. Shearman burst into tears as he
mentioned Mrs. oyington's name, and
was unable to proceed until he dried
bis eyes. He said that he did not feel
sad for her, but iclt that she had gone
home TO heaven. Mr.. Shearman said
that he did not believe that the church
FULLY appreciated oil that she had done
'or it and its pastor, and added that as
he looked back he saw how great her
service was during the trial through
which the church had passed.
Beecher showed much emotion as
le listened 10 Mr. Shearman. !

HAPPY or COURSE.

The editor OF tho Tyrone Times, in
his issue of March stb, event off" after
this style:
To-day the American nation can
breathe easy today we have repre-
sented in the Presidential chair the
principles that lio at the foundation of
our national life; in other words, to.
day we have Baptist President, the
first that ever occupied this position
since the organization of our Govern.
ment. As a people we are greatly in.
dobted to Roger Williams, of Salem
and Providence notoriety, for the priv
ileges we enjoy. Tired of English
oppression, he came to this country to
establish n Government on strictly
Democratic principles, eliminating in
the now city of Providence, The
nucleus here established formed a
basis for all future legislation until a
Government vesting the power in the
people was recognized all over the
land.
"Thomas Jefferson declared that the
first idea Of Republican form of Gov.
ernment he ever conceived Of he oh.
tained at Baptist church meeting,
while other stars of equal celebrity in
our political horizon make like confes.
sions And now that Gen. Garfield.
the hero of many battles, the indefat.
igable Baptist, filled brim full of love
of country and love for God, educated
ed in the principles of right from
his youth up, and even now when
filling the highest Office in the
nation, not above participating in a
farewell meeting in Mentor with
a small band Of the disciples of
Christ on the last Sabbath of his stay,
who parted with him in tears. To
this man the country can look with
confidence, while designing politicians
will stand a little to one side Verify
the country is safe with such Il pilot at
the helm"
The aforesaid should secure aud read
the report of the Poland Committee,
and then give us another piece.

To the Presidsnf Of he Uaiisd Siaies.
SIR-I have observed In your Annual Message
gratifying allusion to the public services that
II has been my privilege to render the country,
with which you join a proposal to create new
office In the army for my honor aud emolument
Ia point Of honor, II seems to me that nothing is
gained, after having held for eight years the SUI
peTior command, to accept an inferior situation I;
and In point Of emOlument / submit to your at &.
tention that, during my own administration, ia
the face Of much unfayorable comment, signed
bill for the very large increase Of my own sala
ry, the argument for which was that Il would make
a sufficient proyiliob for my present circumstan-
ccs. II seems due to my own dignity, as we'll as
to the,interests Of the army service, which are
seriously involved In the matter, that the pro
posal should not be pressed.
Yours respectfully,

squabblcs about his place at the table
nderthoidoa that he was defending the
honor of his country, is among the
things which have impressed his par,
ticular friends that something needs
to be done for his dignity.
II Is safe to say that the reason why
the American people did not elect Gen
Grant for President was that, on the
whole, they did not like him for Presi
dent, and thought they could do bet,
ter II could not have been on nc,
count ofthe "napdoodle' about Caesar.
ism" that was fed out 80 prolusely to
their readers by the Herald and Sun,
| will not say that nobody believed
this stuff for | once met an honest
and sensible man who declared, with
every appearance of being in earnest,
that he believed there was deep laid
plan to subvert the Republic and make
Grant Emperor. But this was an
individual eccentricity, The reason
against electing him, with most of us,
was not that we could not have him
for third term II wo wanted him, but
that we did not want him. And the
reason why he was not nominated was
that the engineers Of the machine had
reason to suspect how many of us
there are who are waiting for 30 Just
an occasion as such nomination as
either Grants or Blaine's would have
been to give some practical expression
OF our disapproyal by sacrificing the
next election if necessary, to the inter.
ests Of tho next generation.
But he was not nominated nor elect.
cd and now behold his friends pre-.
senting this to the public, with most
grieved expression of countenanoe, as
a very bad case, and pleading with
tears in their voice, to have something
done for his dignity "The Cincin.
natus business is played out" your
correspondents think. The Cincinnati
business is the only thing that suits
these times and, that failing, we must
have an act of Congress to meet the
case.
| admit the need. President
Grant is not in dignifed position.
John Quincy Adams was, Mr.. Polk
was and Mr.. Fillmore was, Mr. Hayes
will be. But Grant is not. What can
be done about it2
Giving him some more money aud
the equivalent Of a peerage will not
help the matter This method was
tried and tried out in the case OF the
Duke of Marlborough, and is demon
strated failure. 1t served the dignity
neither of the Duke nor of the nation.
The remedy lies with Mr.. Grant
himself A few lines from his pen, in
that terse and direct style which he
knows how to use, would do some.
thing toward setting the matter right.
For example:
To ne Editor Of he Nsw York Tims..
SRI must beg you to desist from further ad-
vertising me In the character Of q mendioant for
the charities Of the public. On my retirement
from public office, became entitled 10 all the
immunities which belong to any private citizen,
one OF which ought to be that Of managing my
own private peouniary affairs, without intrusion
The implication (which, doubtless you do not in
tend that have been thriitless while in Office,
and am unable or ashamed to earn an honest liv-
ing now, | beg leave 10 repudiate.
Yours respectfully,

A DESTRUCTIVE STORM.

The experience of the steamer South
Carolina on her way from Panama and
way ports, was most extraordinary. She
picked up on her upward trip no less than
fifty-three shipwrecked people. There
were Captain Neil Currie, wife and two
children, and four seamen, who abandoned
the burning British ship Lara in mid ocean
Captain Weeks and eight men, of the
American bark Antioch, wrecked below
Manzanillo; Captain Nelson and. fourteen
men. of the bark J. B. Bell, wrecked in
Manzanillo Bay; four men from the
schooner Good Templar, wrecked at San
Bias; and Captain Kelly and sixteen men
from the ship Alnwick Castle, wrecked in
Manzanillo Bay. With the exception OF
the Lara, all these wrecks were caused by
the same tremendous cyclone, which de-
stroyed the town of Manzanillo, and devas.
tated the country behind it for many miles.
1t appears to have been the severest storm
that has occurred for many years on that
coast, and if the disasters which followed
it were at all common, or the experience OF
the South Carolina anything but excep.
tional, there would be good reason for pro.
posing to re-christen the ocean now called
" Pacific" 1t is to be hoped that the mum.
Der of rescued seamen in this case does NOT
indicate the loss of others, but that
also is to be feared.
