soandal of late has been taken through tbe preas. Through tbe preas alone you have fired off your saulos your sense of diplomacy and belief in the credulity of the publlo oboceiDj? that medinm In preference to any committee or church. Why did you step aside from your usual ens torn the other sight Your assertion thai you nrtnt ihore to bear the reading of the report, ana to fcotrect any misrepresentations of you, allow me to say won't wash" with an Intelligent community. I am under the painful necessity of stating that, with your love of intrigue, and peculiar faculty for diplomacy, I believe yoa went to that meeting for set purpose, namely, to take off the dignity and bring discredit upon If you could, by creating a mob element by your presence. You, Henry Ward Beecher's accuser, an outsider, and not a member of his church, to pres sent yourself before his people who believe in bis purity.

It is a great wonder to me that you did not rucceed in creating a mob and having your body hauled into the street. Had yon, an enemy, and under similar oircumstauoes, pr( sented yourself before some audiences that I have seen, you would not have got off so well, my dear Frank. Of course, Frank, you bad a right to go totnat ohuroh, the same as any man has so long as he behaves himself it is a free church, thank God! But, under tbe circumstances, to go tbere as you did as an enemy of Mr. Beecher and with tbe motives that I believe actuated you, was decidedly out of taste, Batvhaa you went further, when yon piled it on and began rub it in, as it were, by voting on the report, you ln to vote in the eyes of the ohuroh; but as a man who loves intrigue, I suppose yoq ftongW you bad. I have Mr.

Beeoher's authority (as I find it inhiSBtatemenf) forgM.that while it wife 1b or has beenameiBner of Plymouth Ohuroh, you are not, and never bvW6Sn, member, nor even a regulai attendant. Mr; Bobs; Eaymond, the gentleman wbo so accurately painted your oourse in the scan d6l in yonr presence, at the meeting, also confirms Mr. Beecher as to your non membership, and, to Blamp It further on your diplomatic mind, I may add, so does every member of that church confirm their pastor in this respect. Now, don't, don't for mercy Bake try to make the public swallow any more letters and statements. A MEMHEB OF PiVMOOTH OHUBOH.

THE COUNTY PAY BOLLS. Supervisors' Visit to tbe Flatbusb Institutions in Search of Stnecurlsta Tbe Result of tbelr Inreatigratlon. There has been a suspicion in the publio mind, receiving strength and character from prominent member of the Board ef Supervisors that there were more names on the pay rolls ot the county institutions than persons actually employed therein, and, to settle tbe truth or falsehood of this suspicion, a speoial Committee of the Board was iuBtruoted, on the 17th to make a rigid inquiry. relative to them. Accordingly, on last Saturday Supervisors Blchard son, Shlpman, and Kyder of thia Committee, visited the oonnty buildings at Flatbush, and took theslmplest and best way of solving the question whether or not there were more nameB on the pay.

rolls than persons employed. Beginning at the Almshouse, with the aid of the Superintendent, Mr. Murray, they summoned before them all the employes, and, as the Chairman of the Committee, Sop. Richardson called np the names, each one of them responded to his own, and in tbe case of two or three absentees satisfactory proof was given that they were actual employes and not mere myths put on the rolls in the interest of some politician. It was found, however, that some, of tbe personB who were, or had been, under pay In the Almshouse, came originally to that establishment aB paupers.

The pay was generally small, but the fact of paying them at all was in conflict witb the opinion entertained ty a large number of people that tho able men and women who are supported at tbe expense of the county, should be compelled to make some return by doing work of some kind needed in the institution, instead of passing the hours in lounging around the yard or sloeping in the rooms. Thia opinion, however, does not extend to the Hospital, ae the poor wbo seek an asylum there are supposed to do 80 through physical inability, brough on by disease, to earn their own livelihood, and it is therefore ouly just if their services are required, when they are sufficiently recovered to go out and do for themselves, that a suitable compensation bo given them, The pay given to carpenters appeared to be rather excessive. Until recently, they were getting $3.50 a day, with board now, the salary ia $3, with board. Tbe Committee seemed to think that a further reduction might be effected without injury to the employes. The name of Mr.

Oogglns attracted some attention. It appears this Mr. CogginB was employed by the old Board of Commissioners to act iu tho capacity of a supervisory plumber at a salary of $100 a month. This gentleman used to visit the buildings about once a week, maroa hastily through them, and then take his departure for another week. This supernumery has been diepensed witb, and, without losa to the oouuty, in the opinion of the Committee.

THE HOSPITAL. The same thing was ropoated iu the Hospital, all tte nurses and employes were called by name before the Committee, and each one gave an account of his or her coming to the Hospital. A few of tbe nurses had been patients before, they were employed in their preBont capacity. They appeared to be very suitable for their business. THE ASYLUM.

Tbe nurses at the Asylum are a very different class from those iu tbe Hospital. Tho femalo nurses are re ligioufly neat in their person, and, in the opinion of one or two members or the Committee, a few of them are altogether too youthful and physically tender to take charge of the insane. It is not at all improbable that the Committee will recommend their discharge, and ihe substitution for them of persons maturer in years and physically stronger, The Committee visited the institutions this morning for a minuto Inspection of tbe wards and outhouses. COKEY ISLAJiD. Religions Services Yesterday now tbey were Received.

Thousands of people visited this well known resort yesterday afternoon. A reporter of the Eagle ascertaing that religious services were being held every Sunday afternoon at tbe Island for the benefit of the righteous, as well as the ungodly, strolled along tho beach in search of the little band, bo that he might aee what was to be Been and hear was to be About four o'clock, twenty fine looking young ladles and gentlemen from the New Utrecht Young Men's Christian Association, assisted by members of the Brooklyn and Harlem Associations were assembled on the shore, nearly in front of the Railroad House, for the purpose of holding an open air service. The meeting was opened by singing witb great fervor "All hail the power of Jesus' name," followed by the reading of a portion of Scripture from St. John's Gospel, chap. xiv.

This was succeeded by earnest and eloquent appeals from many of the young men to the assembled multitude, who listened and gave excellent attention. Hymns and a little paper, "Glad Tidings," wore freely distributed among the audience and after more singing, the thanks of the little band were tendered to the assemblage for kind attention and assistance given, and the meeting dispersed. Atthe conclusion of the exercises the Eagle reporter introduced himself to one of the gentlemen members of the NEW UTEEOHT TOUNO MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION, and held the following conversation with him: Reporter How long has this work been carried ou? Young Gentleman We began it last year. Reporter How many are engaged in it Y. G.

Well, wo have from fifteen to twenty of our own association, beside some three or four from the Brooklyn Young Men's Association, together with assistance from the Lay College. Reporter Which association conducts the work Y. G. The serviceB are held under the auspices of the New Utrecht Association. They undertook tbe work with what assistance they could get from other associations.

The Brooklyn Association has helped us more than any other, they being the nearest to us. By the way, that reminds me of an article published in last Monday's Union, which erroneously gave the impression that we were all from Brooklyn, and that the Brooklyn Association was carrying on the work. But it is not so. The New Utrecht Association started this work, and, by the help of God, intend to carry it through, the Brooklyn Association has stood by us so far and we hope and believe tbey will stand by us as long as we have open air serviceB or Coney Island. We have had great encouragement and met with great success this year.

The reporter then hastened to the cars with the conviction that tbe New Utrecht Young Men's Christian Association was doing a good work in endeavoring to promote the spiritual welfare of a place which, though beautiful by nature, has had the three card monte man and the chow chow man as worldly afflictions during the Summer season. scandals propagated 60 spdulonnly against him; while, where ho Is leu personally known, they have been felt to cast a darker shadow over his name. In this oity no reputable paper except the Dally rjropftfc, (is that reputable paper?) has pretended to give them sanction; while the World, la New York, and the Eaols, In Brooklyn, both politically hostile to Mr. Beecher, have been, throughout, among his ataunoaest defendi rs. It would be diffloult to find single clergyman or a single well known business man in the community who gives any credence to the aopuBatlona oi Mr.

Tilton. I mingle naturally largely with conservative men, who are not personally atUcbea to Mr. Beecher, many of whom were hearUly opposed to Mb anti slavery course, and to whom bis peculiar methods are distasteful, and have yet to hear one who does not bBHeve that he has been the victim in part of the cunning of his foes, and in part of tbe unwise trustfulness and the ondne charity of bis own nature In the Union League Olub. where Mr. Moulton and Mr.

Carpenter are both pereooaiiy known, and where for two years Mr. Moulton has been whispering mysteriously that he was In the possession of tremendous secrets, and that Mr. Beecher "is under my thumb, sir! under my thumb," it would be difficult to find half a dozen men' of any character who attach any weight whatever to anything Mr. Tilton has said, or that Mr. Moulton can say, unless supplied by strong corroborative testimony.

A HISTORY OF THE CASE. I propose, in this article, to give the readers of the Advance a history of this oase as it appears to the New Yorker. In this history I shall Btate some facta not in evidence, but nothing on newspaper gossip, nothlLg that I do not either know personally or on testimony that is unquestionable and direct. It is no secret here that Mr. Tilton has been, for ten years, animated by an ill concealed animosity to Mr.

Beecher, incited by envy, and aggravated by Mr. Beecher's Increasing popularity aud his own rapid downfall and accumulating disasters. For years Mr. Beecher's best friends have endeavored to persuade him of this fact in vain. He "ihinkcth no evil," and carries his disregard of prejudicial rumors and stories to the extent of shnttlng his ears againBt well authenticated evidence, and always has.

THE BEGINNING OF TILTON 's ATTACK. Mr. Tilton began his attack on Mr. Beecher in Plymouth Oburch itself, for holding on to the Home Missionary Society alter the Amerioan Missionary Association was organized. Those who remember that battle will bear witness that it was not a mere discussion of principles, but was a personal attack upon the preacher and the man.

The next assault was at a Woman's Suffrage meeting, if I remember aright, in Dr. Chtevcr's Church. Mr. Beecher quoted from a Utile Bible or Testament in his hand, Mr. Tilton picked it up, and, following Mr.

Beeober, quoted from its fly leaf the words which showed it a gift from some lady, and made it the theme of what was, at the least, an unseemly witticism. Mr. Beecher repelled it with a quiec dignity whioh those who witnessed the scene will not soon forget. When the famous trio retired from the Independent and Mr. Beecher became its editor, it was only to make a place for Theodore, whom he had almost adopted, and whom he loved as his own son.

Aud when, at the close of tbe war, Mr. Beecher, misled, as I thought then and still thiuk, adhered to President Johnson after tbe rest of tho Republicans had withdrawn ttom His snpport, and wrote that true but unwise Cleveland letter, Mr. Tilton seized his opportunity to prove, what he had often before publicly asserted, that Mr. Beecher had done his work, and other and younger nvjn were coming up to take his place; He ceased tiie publication of Mr. Beecher's srrmons, and commenced a series of editorial criticisms upon him.

The publio, who were not behind the scenes, as I happened to be, thought that Mr. Bech had, in a pique, to punish thB Tnde pendent for tbe iudepende.ee of its editor, withdrawn his sermons, and I suppose there are multitudes who think bo to this dny. Other papers applied to Mr. Beecher for them, but he would make no new contracts with other papers till the old contract was formally annulled. Not till the publication had been omitted for weeks, I think for months, did Mr.

Beecher yield to the pressure of his friends, and consent to sever finally and completely biB connection with the Independent, whoee coiamae Mr. Tilton had closed to him, and which, under Mr. Tiltsn's leadership, was no longer safe, either as a theological or a social guide. And even then, though the cupital was offered, and the publisher was ready to begin without delay a new paper, Mr. Beecher would not be persuaded to go into it, because ho would do nothing that would injure Theodore, or would seem to be a punishment for the course pursued toward blm.

WHY TECTON LEFT THB INDEPENDENT. The reasons why at length Mr. Tilton left the Independent are known perhaps in the West as well as here. Mr. Beecher has partially, but only partially, stated them.

It was no secret that Mr. Tilton, the editor of a temperance paper, was aoenstomed to drink his wine at Delmonico dinners tbe editor of an evangelical newspaper disavowed belief in the evangelical creed and sympathy with evangelical people the editor of a religious paper became a habitue of the French theatre, and he was' currently believed to carry hiB devotion to the drama to attendance behind the sceneB and to personal acquaintance with tbe popular actresses of the day. The stories which were brought to Mr. Beecher, and on which he advlBed Mr. Tilton's dismissal, were common talk in Brooklyn and New York.

And tbe rest of the world was never charitable enough to believe tbem untrue it does not to this day. Mr. Tilton's ambition had been to be the leader of a new movement in church and State, a party whose social prinoiples involved the dissolution of the house bold a religion without a church, a Bible or a Christ. And he did not abandon the ambition when the editorial ohair of tbe Independent was taken from htm. The Golden Age became the prophet of the new unformed organism.

Mr. Moulton became the treasurer of the new paper. A fellow student of Mr, Tilton's, a man of analogous mold, like Mm a born Benaatlouallst, like him always histrionic, like him, as a leading olti zen described him to me only yesterday, "always on the boards," he gave Mr. Tilton tho assurance that whatever funds were wanted for tbe Golden Age should be forthcoming. And on that assurance it wbb started.

FAILURE OF THE "GOLDEN AGE." But from first to last the Golden Age was a failure. Experiment proved that it was not Mr. Tilton that had kept up tbe independent but the Independent that had kept up Mr. Tilton. Under other editors the Inde pendent maintained its course, shorn of something of Its old strength, but a giant still.

The Golden Age launched only to find itself upon the shoals from which nothing could extricate it. The appeal to the Spiritualists, the cajolery of the anti church and anti Christian portion of the community, the sharp satire on religious work and reUgiouB institutions, and the mild mannered Bilence respecting licentiousness and intemperance, tho scarcely concealed advocaoy of free love, the impetuous devotion to tbe Greelevcause, and finally the novel, were all failures, andfthe Age was golden only because of the gold it swallowed up, never because of golden eggs it lud. Meanwhile the Christian Union, assumed now by Mr. work was finished, and whose placo was to be taken by younger men," ran up in three years or bo from three thousand to a hundred and twenty thousand circulation. He who knows Theodore Tilton, and how witb him vanity bas always been a mania, can understand how embittering to him would be such an unexpected issue.

He who knowB Mr. Beecber, and how ill success and misfortune alwayB appeal to his kindlier nature, can understand tbe charity, which, to those wbo do not know it, eeems like fear, and irresolution, and moral weakness, and even the sign of guilt. It was just like Mr. Beecher to interpose hlmBelf between Theodore Tilton and the consequences of his own folly, and trust by love and patience to win him back to purity and truth. Be believes that love is omnipotent.

He has tried hiB philosophy, and he has failed. It was just like Mr. Beecher to make large allowance for the embittered spirit embittered by failure and disappointed ambition and to trust that if Theodore could only be pulled through into deep waters all would be well with him, aud his nobler nature would assert itself. And it was just tike Tilton and Moulton to play upon Mr. Beecher's hope and trust, and let him pull tbem throngh.

MB. DEEOHEB'S NATCBE. There are three elements in Mr. Beecher's natnre which his friends understand, but which tbe world dues not bo well, which account for a ourso that in a colder, shrewder man, would have been strange indeed. He is almost (he most trustful man I ever knew.

His knowledge of human nature is never set to watch over his personal interests. He never distrusted Theodore Tilton till the publication of the letter to Dr. Bacon in tbe Golden Age, and never distrusted Mr. Moulton till Mr. Moulton's refusal to eive to him his own papers.

This trustfulness is characteristic of a great and guileless nature. In his earlier ministry, and until experience and a prudent wife had taught him better, he was an easy prey! to beRgara. When I edited hiB "SerrmnB" (Harper's Edition), he intrusted to me all that had been published up to that hiB only copies, over 500. And id answer too letter urging oa hisrvison or the work, I have, somewhere among my letters, one from him, replying iu hi? fashion that he makes over to me all singular his sermons in fee simple, to have and to hold, and to do witb as I choose only save him from printers. Of course, they are not mine, but bis, and after his death they belong to his literary executors.

They remain in my attic only because that is as safe a place as his own. But I can well understand, and so can all ubo know him, how he Bbould intrust all hie papers in this business to Mr. Moulton, and how he should be struck dumb with astonishment at the refusal to return them to him. Add to these traits tDe exceeding pitlf ulness of his nature. He always is on the Bide of the weak instinctively.

It was this instinct, when th battle was over, that made his heart yearn to the Sou and long for her redemption, and tnclined him to separate from them wbo, witb policy wiser, perhaps, but Icbs generous certainly, would relax no advantage gained i war till all was secure. "I never," said he to me once, "heard Dr. Finney in the pulpit get the sinners down in that tremendous way of his, and hammer them with tbe eternal justice of God, that I did not long to cry out to him, 'Let them up, Finney. Oh 1 let them np Theodore Tilton was down, and Theodore Tilton was to him aB a son; adopted by him; trained a taught by him lifted up by his own influence to a noble place. And now all was squandered.

The place was gone. Beputation was gone. Tho family was no longer a refuge. Character was clean gone. The Golden Age was a failure, financially and every way.

Mr. Beecher's whole heart went out to this bankrupt. It was just like him to accuse himself of the ruin for which Tilton alone was responsible. It was just like him to stand for years in the gap, trying to save what was beyoud all hope of salvation. It was just like him to excuse the embittered jealousy of the disappointed hope to redeem him from not only earthly ruin, but a shattered soul, by bringing him out into prosperity again.

It was just like him to pay monay, time after time, aud finally in one to set the fallen friend up again. And it was just like him to fire at the first threat of blackmoil, to dare the worst when no longer hiB good nature, but his fears were threatenod, and to demand a searching inquisition of all that could be said or had been said against him. If his course was weak, it was tho weakness of a charity too large ond too unsuspecting. If it were fear il was tear lor otherstor a friend he fain would save, for a woman crazed by ber own wrongs whom he would protect from tbe maoncss of her own husband. It is because these qualities in Mr.

Tilton and Mr. Beecher are well known, and in Mr. Moulton reasonably w.il known that the verdiot of Brooklyn and SUPKKMR'OOUKT, OOVS TY OK KlSiS Kdmnnd Kmhury, plaintiff, aaalmt Piter IWfflo and otnors, defendants.

He Attempts to Throw a man Down a Cellar and Gets Thrown Down Himself Probable Case (or tne Coronet Bis Accomplice in Quod. The law abiding citizens of Brooklyn, who of late have had their moral senses of propriety and deoenoy continually outraged, can now rest, for a short while at least, in comparative security. The reaeon for this general relief will be felt ond appreciated when it i8 generally known that the notorl oub desperado Flooring, named in a moment of religious imbecility alter that apostolic doubter St. Thomas, bnt wbo is better snnwn by the euphoniom title of "Yaller Scooter," ia tn Iho boBpital. This individual's oriminal record iB indicative of who and what he iB, and can and does furnish a better Insight Into his past career than anything that has yet come to light concerning him.

Bred in THE SLUMS 07 THE BECOND WAUD, bo say the police, he has been an apt pupil to everything tbat Is loathsome in the school of dcbatiotiory and rowdyism. Not content with practising his villainous propensities in the hauuts where his vile associates most do congregate, and scattering tbe blows from his ponderous flats wherever he haB to contend with something weaker, and, if possible, lower than be, tho ambition has lately seized upon him to invade tbe precincts which aro marked by the outlines oi respectability. Innocent men have been the targets for his assaults long enough; deferselesa womeu have also felt tho contagion of biB brutal proclivities, and even the poor dumb brutes that prowl around the streets have met with tbe wanton vengeance whioh be bestows upon every living object which comes in his path. His attack upon Mr. John Dwyor, which took place some time ago, wob a fearful 'mistake on "Scooter's" part, He underrated the physical resources of the man, and forgot that a gentleman is sometimes unwilling to be BOUOBI.T HANDLED byabttlley.

For his attack in this oase be met with disastrous defeat, aud that bis savage nature might be Bated, tho next time he made bis appearance iu daylight he ruthlessly cut tbo throat of a dog. The police, all of whom knew him well, say ho is omouB as a beor glasB slinger, having damaged tbo cranium of many an inoffensive imbiber of tbat beverage. A notable fact, however, is that wheuevor ho eucounters the slightest resistauco he falls to tho ground, and in true cowardly fashion cringes and fawns tor mercy from tbe band that he would have stealthily stilled forever. Lost night, iu company with a rcilii in as idly prone himself, he made a DESPERATE ONSLAUGHT on a young man nomad Kane. Tne stronger wok aloue, and Scooter and uis attempted to bur him down an open cellar.

By some coucatiuatinn of circumstances however, Yaller Scoot ot tbrowu down the pit himself, and is now groaning iu Loug Island College Hospital, much hurt, but uo better mun. At Justice Walsh's Court this morning, Crowli was held in default of bail, the condition of "Scooter" reported "dangerous," and Mr. Kane was properly permitted to woud his wiy whither he might, in peace. The writer never seen "Scooter," but ho is undoubtedly a frightful looking object for a photographic galleiy, unless the police officers arc prejudiced in their estimate of his contour.

Aldmdqk, Justice. In tbe matter of the prosetntio tor bastardy, instituted by Mr. Bnssell G. Dudley, ths poor master, on the affidavit of tbe late Miss Ma' E. Pomeroy, charging the Bev.

John S. Glendennl aa being the farther of a child with which she wis then pregnant, and which examination was adjo' rned until the birth of said child, whith event bas mw taken place, and the mother has since deceased, and thtt too before she had sufficiently recovered her health to appear as a witness. In view of tbe fact tbat her former examination or affidavit upon which Glendening waB arretted cannotbe used as legal evidence on tho trial of said prosecution iu corsequence of her death, Alfred B. Pomeroy, the brother of deoeased, waa advised not to make au application to the PoormaBter for the support of the child, or aid him In the further prosecution of said matter, and Mr. Dudley, aB Poormaster, could, under the circumstances, adopt no other course than to withdraw, it was, however, in the power of said Glendenning if he desired a full examiuation, to have waived the matter of ber cross examination, and admitted her I affidavit as evidence, and then disproved the charge If he could.

He said Pomeroy was also advised that his sister's voluntary dying declarations, positive and clear aB they were, charging Glendenning as the father of tho child, would not be admissable as legal evidence in a case of this kind, and while the brother (in common with others), entertain no doubt aB to his being rightfully cbarged by his deceased elster, as tho father of her child, in consequence of her death ho may avoid tho expense of the support of the same, it by no means establishes his innocence, neither doeB it relieve him from the odium, the accusation has cast upon him.

FIRE FBOM WATER. An Ingenious Invention. An ingenious little invention, and one that is likely to prove of some utility, is now on exhibition at the residence of Mr.

Thomas M. Fleming, No. 301 Washington Btreet, in this city. It is the practical application of the process of generating hydrogen gas from water, and creating a flame. The machine 1b bo Bimplified in its arrangements that by the touch of the finger upon the spring a flame is immediately emitted, igniting paper, Bticks, alcohol, or any easily ignited materials.

The machine presents to the eye the appeal ance of a glass jar about two Ihcbes In diameter and six or eight In height containing a translucent liquid and does not look as if susceptible of creating fire. On tho top of the glass jar there is screwed a brass cap, to whioh is affixed a valve. Pendent to this In tho jar is a copper wire, which bangs in close proximity to a piece of Einc. The jar is filled with a weak solution of sulphuric acid. Upon pressing the spring of tho valve it is opened, and a stream of hydrogen gaB, formed by the contact of the wire with the zinc, 1b thrown upon a piece of Bponge platinum, which is placed in a small cap immediately opposite the valve.

A tiny jet of flame at once springs forth, and is extinguished upon the closing of the valve. Once charged tho jar can be used for one year, the expense being about three cents. The whole process being sun ply a manufacture of flame from water, generated by the use of metalB and liquids, removes all fear of explosion or conflagration, and utilizes the use of hydrogen gas for household purposes.

San ford A Father and His Child Escape to Germany Sunday Lager Beer, etc. Charles Steringer sued his wife Frederioa for absolute dlvoroe.

The parties resided in the Eastern District, and were married In 1883. The plaintiff accuses his wife of infidelity with one George Bauer, in 1873 and 1872, at No. 16 Scholes street and No. 67 Montrose avenue. The answer denies everything, and alleges further that tbe plaintiff condoned the offense.

This morning the case came up in the City Court, before Judge Reynolds, on a motion for counsel feeB and alimony. Mr. Thomos, of counsel for the defendant, put in an affidavit, setting forth that George Bauer was an adopted son of defendant's mother, and that she had been brought up with him as a brother, that he was only eighteen years of age, and that defeudant and plaintiff had lived together until January, 1873. Eve Bier aud Margaret Bremer deposed to the good reputation of defendant, and the faitbfnl discharge of her duties as wife and mother. Phillipina Kuch, the defendant's mother, stated that Bauer was her adopted son, and that he and her daughters had lived together as brother and sisters.

Slio also deposed that during Ihe past year or so, the plaintiff had taken to drinking, and spent his time and money in Baloons, neglecting hlr wife and family, and leaving them dependent on Mrs. Kuch and her daughters. It was stated that Bauer had admitted and boasted of his familiarity with Mrs, Steringer, and that Steringer had started for Europe last Saturday week, very much disgUBted. The motion for alimony and oounsel fee was adjourned, Judge Beynolds remarking thot tho man who wanted to run a divorce suit ought to remain iu the country. A habeas corpus for the possession of one of the children was also returnable to day.

Tho child was delivered up to the mother. There seemed to be a difference of opinion as to the number of their children. Mr. Steringer says that there are three. Mrs.

Steringer says that there are four. C. W. Holtz for the plaintiff; Daiiey, Perry Thomas for the defendant. Tbe Proctor liase.

In the Eagle of July 28, the complaint and answer In the action of Wm. W. Proctor against Samuel W. Lapsley are printed in full. The matter has again come up in the New York Supreme Court on an application for the examination of tbe defendant before trial.

In the complaint, Mr. Proctor alleges that Mr. Lapsley, who is a broker at 74 Broadway, New Yi rk, made Mrs. Proctor drunk in his oiBoe and accomplished her ruin, and that he repeated the offeDse on several occasions. It also alleges that Mrs.

Fanny Kosenthal, wife of liobert Itosen 'that of New York was similarly treated by the defendant. Plaintiff avers that his wife had i reviously deposited with the defendant be bbss for $50, 000 damages. The answer is a general denial. On the application for the examination of the defendant, bis counsel stated that the case had been settled by the principals, and the matter was postponed until to morrow. Habeas Corpus on Religious Grounds.

Counselor 'Wm. Coit procured a writ of habeas corpus from Justice Tappen to day, directing Mrs. Ann Sneider to produce in court the persons of the two children of Catherine Elane. The petition sets forth that Mrs. Elane went to visit Ann Sneider, the children's grandmother, wbo refused to allow Mrs, Elane to take tbe children with her when she returned home.

It was alleged that Mrs. Xlane was a Protestant, and that the children's grandmother kept possession of them in order to bring them up in the Catholic faith. Mrs. Josephine E. Sandf ord's Xronbles.

Counselor George A. Mott moved thismorn ihg, before Justice Tappen, to vacate a writ of attach ment against the property of Josephine E. Sanford, of the South Oyster Bay Hotel. Counsel said that Frank Glover sued Mrs. Sanford for liquors purchased by her husband, and that it was alleged that she wbb going to eell her property, run away, and defraud her creditors.

Her affidavit wos put in denying that she ever pnrchased the goods, and that a certain promissory note had been obtained from her by the false and fraudulent representations of the plaintiff, who threatened to take her farm away and lock her up. She was responsible and able to meet all demands against her. She traded ber farm for the hotel, and rented the bar to her husband. It was untrue that she was going to remove her property, or go away out of the State. Counter affidavits alleged that Mrs.

Sandford was getting rid of her personal and real estate, and the records of Queens County were cited to prove the statement. The Court thought that there were grounds to believe that the conveyances were given witb a view to defraud, and that she was alienatiug her estate without consideration. The motion to vacate the attachment was denied. Out of tbe Clntcbes o( tbe Law. Amelia Polhans procured a habeas corpus on Saturday, directing Gustavo Polhans to produce the body of her son Ernest.

She alleged that her husband, ErneBt Polhans, a merchant in New York, had taken the child from her oustody and placed it in the charge of Gustavo Polhans, bis brother, wbo resides in Cumberland street.

Application was made to Judga lieynolds, this morning, in Special Term of ihe City Court, by H.

M. Conley, for authority to send Noble S. Bennett, of State street, to tho County Insane Asylum. He stated that the petition was urged by tbe wife of the insane man, and is backed up by the joint certificate of Dr. Hallet and Kissam, who say that Bennett labors under the delusion that whereas he is poor, he believes himself possessed of great wealth, and that there is an absence of a sense of propriety in his behaviour.

Tbe liUdlam JLnnacy Romance. Last week the Eagle published a full account of tbe extraordinary proceedings in the case of Charles Ludlani, who, it is alleged, waB made druuk aud sent to the Asylum at Utica as a lunatic, in order to Bave his father from paying an $800 peace bond which was forfeited. This morning the writ of habeas corpus wob up for hearing. Judge Armstrong produced a paper Bigncd by Ludlam, denjing that he was held against his will. Justice Tappen said that was enough and dismissed the writ.

This matter Beems to be one that demands inquiry and investigation. Ludlani sued bia wife for divorce Judge Armstrong 1b his counsel. Ludlam assaulted a man and his father became biB oondsman to keep the peace in $800. Judge Armstrong is the father's counsel. Ludlam assaulted another man, and his peace bond was forfeited.

Ludlam was made drunk, taken to Jamaica, adjudged a lunatic, and sent to Ttica Asylum. Judge; Armstrong wbb on the bench, and adjudged Ludlama lunatic, and sent him up. This morniDg a writ of haboas corpus came up. and the Superintendent of Utica Asylum appeared in answer by bis counsel. His counsel was' Judge Armstrong.

If Ludlam is kept at Utica, hiB father saves his $800 peace bond, his wife fails to get her alimony, and an indictment against Ludlam for assault and battery cannot be found. That explains the whole matter, without doubt. Decisions By Juslic Pratt. E. A.

Evidence that Plymouth and Beecher Stand on the Truth, AnEnlhiisiastic Demonstration at PeekskiU Saturday Night The Beecher Homestead Serenaded Western Opinion on tbe Conspiracy An Able Summary of the Case by Lyman Abbott An Open Letter to Mr.

MouHod, and Some Points forTheodore. THE CASE CLOSED BY THE PUBLIC. The week opens with one of those lulls which setnetimcs portentioualy precede or, when the elements have exhausted themselves, may follow, a slorm. In the present instance the qniet is a condition subsequent. ABk this or any community to continue in eucb a state of excitement as marked the close of last week and which culminated in the scenes of Fri day night, would be to assume the abrogation of all law and order, and the existence of unending moral, menial and physical ohaos.

So everybody tatesa rest and as much throngh neoessity as of choioe. The poor, overworked, vituperated Committee standing not upon the order of their going, have fled to the cardinal points of the compasB. Mr. Sige this morning took a westward bound train, and will for the next two weeks attend to his ioug neglected lumber interests. Mr.

Cleveland Ins gone to Connecticut, where he rejoins his wife, and, as soon as her health permits, he will with her visit the White Mountains. Mr. Winelotr left Saturday morning for various points in New England. Mr. Bhearmm is taking a rnn down the St.

Lawrence, visiting Montreal and Quebec. All of these will be absent from one to three weeks. They have shaken tho dust of Brooklyn from their feet, have washed their hands of the Beecher Tilton investigation, and have placed themselves where the wioked reporters cease from troubling, and whore weary committeemen are at rest. Tracy, the indefatigable, the mm of law alone remains. He returned to Brooklyn and to business, this morning.

The Committee as such have done with the insane ravings of Tilton and the statements of Moul ton, witb veiled ladies and mysterious witnesses, who come and flit in closed carriages; with midnight coun sels, with examinations whether crass or direct. But Tracy's connection with the case has only just begun. He has been formally retained jfor the defence (n the ciim. con. case of Tilton vs.JBeecher, and, though, if anything human or susceptible of the weakness of the tired is in him, he must be as much disgusted with the business as any of his late confreres, yet he comes to tbe case in its legal aspects, with the vast advan tage of knowing everything there is in it.

The chec itself is pretty certain now to come before a Jury, although, in all probability not so soon as the October term of the Court. Neither side, probably, will be able to get ready quite so soon qb that. The case will by no means bo the difficult one for a jury that it would seem to have been for the Committee. The legal rules of evidence will then be striotly enforced. On one side will be the testimony of Tilton and Moniion that both Mr.

Beecher an I Mrs. Tilton confessed to them the adultery. This testimony, with its inherent improbability, will be tested by the infal lible touchstone of cross examination, such as Traey's genius can apply. The orade inconsistencies of state ment which, in the great mass and multitude of mean ingless words and rhetorical absurdities are hidden from the people, will then be brought out in their etrongest light before twelve honest men and Imp. The sophistries of special pleading will be exposed witnesses will see hanging over their heads the terrors of the penalties of perjury, and will only dare to tell the truth.

On the side of the defence will be the solemn oath of Henry Ward Beecher, sub stantiated by collateral evidence of convincing power. Added to this will be the impeachment of the principal witnesses against him can be proved to have denied the story of tbe adultery almost as manytimes as they have affirmed it. An attempt was made this morning to feel the pnlse of public opinion in Brooklyn aB to the results reached by the labors of tho Committee. Men of the highest standing in the community, not connected with Plymouth Church, expressed themselves as satisfied that no case had been made out against the great clergyman and while there was variety of opinion as to the wisdom of this non judicial investigation, the manner in which it was conducted, its tiresome length, and the incidents that marked its close, the sentiment waa almost quite unanimous that Mr. Beecher's accusers had totally failed, and that if the plaintiff in the approaching suit had no better evidence than that thus far produced Mr.

Beecher would need no defense before a jury. The opinion was also freely expressed that Mr. Beecher's friends could well afford to allow Tiiloii and Moulton to go on making statements as long as (hey should chose to do so. Every movement of that kind would, without inflicting any damage upon Mr. Beecher, only entangle his baffled accusers the deeper in the web of their own inconsistencies.

It would be, was only another illustration of the truth of the adage "Give a thief plenty of rope and he will be hi) own execntioner." That is the intention of the Investigating Committee, although their organization has not been formally dissolved the best assurances are given. The Committee, if opinion of today ia to be taken as a criterion, have no further work to do and will only continue to do well by having nothing to do with Tilton and Moulton. The Reception oi tiio Committee's Be port at PeeusKlll Enthusiastic Deiu onstration of tbe Villagers. Peekbkill, August 30. To say that the absolute and unqualified exoneration of Mr.

Beecher met with universal indorsement by the citizens of PeekskiU (among whom he makes his Summer homo) would belittle the boundless enthusiasm with which it was on all sides received. The one regret which everybody manifested was the absence of the object of so much feeling. Never before had his annual hay fever seemed so much a public calamity. Were he at home, the mu3ic and torchlights which some suggested would have been made realities, ncd have led the way for a monster call of congratulation by the whole town. But he was away, and on inquiry it wbb found that his family also were absent variously scattered.

No peg remained which on even an excuse for a demonstration could be hung, and, with discussion, all thought of such a thing was necessarily abandoned. The evening came. The weather was clear and the moon just past its full. "Let us sor euade the house, any way," was the suggestion of a member of one or the musical bands, and without ado the suggestion was adopted. One by one its scattered instruments were found, and soon after nine o'clock all had gathered.

With little and hasty preparation they quietly left the town, and bagan their Bilent tramp up the hills to the distant rest" of the much loved pastor. Now it happened that Mr. Bsechor's tociim tenem, Mr. Turner, was in tho village doing his UBUal Saturday night trading, aud necessarily heard of thl suggestions heard during the dav. When, therefore, he started for home and passed the little company of mt Bicians in the Btreet with their faces eastward looking, be needed to ask no questions to learn their intent.

Urging his horse to a quicker pace he hastened to the nearest neighbor, and in hurried words told of the movi mcnt, and asked assistance to light the house and to prepare somothing in the way of refreshment. His story fell upon willing ears, and willing hands noon put his desires in actual existence. One representative of the family the voungest son had fortunately arrived from the city by the late train, and around him tbe few neighbors gathered. Under tbe trees at the head of the lawn on the south side of the bouse, the band was stationed, and for nearly an hour discoursed iu tones both sweet and inspiring. In few but earnest words, tho son rendered thankB on behalf ot bis absent father, and led the way to tables spread witb cake and lemonade, upon a convenient piazza.

Aud thus, at eleven o'clock, tbo pleaBant scene terminated aud good night's were exchanged. Was Mr. Moulton Intoxicated Mr. Tilton is still occupied in the preparation of his forthcoming statement at his residence in Livingtton street. To day an Eaoi.f.

reporter called upon him, but he declined being interviewed generally. In relation to the repoit of Frauk Moulton being intoxicated when he went to Plymouth Church on Friday night, Mr. Tilton said thut it was a gross falsehood. "On that 'evening, continued Mr. Tilton, "Mr.

Moulton had been for a couple of hours prior to his going to Plymouth Church in consultation witb several gentlemen at bis own bouse. Accompanied by his secretary he drove directly from his residence to the church; and since then I met Captain Bourne, of tbo Second Precinct, who told me thut Mr. Moulton, during the whole evening, seemed the coolest man in the audience, and that his deport meut was that of an earnest, determined gentleman. 31 r. Tilton also said that he had heard from others and especially from newspaper men, that Mr.

Moulton did not exhibit any signs of excitement whatever, and that the only loud expreBBion ho. made use of on the uccaBion was to hurl back the imputation of falsehood made against him by Mr. Raymond, in the same language as that used by tho speaker.

Most of the readers of the Eagle must have noticed during the progress of the scandal that the name of the Advance occurred quite frequently in connection with tbo names of Bowen and Tilton. The Advance is the organ of Congregationalism in the WeBt, and has the reputation of being one of the ablest religious papers in tbe country. It was started in opposition to the Independent when Mr.

Tilton's free love'Bpecula Uoub and unchristian tendencies had made Bowen's sheet unfit for decent people to read.

AT CAMP MEETING.

Beceptlon of general Grant and Party at Martha's Vineyard Great Keti nne Speech by Postmaster General Jewell Exquisite Preaching and the Way to Get to It. Correspondence of the Eagle. Vikevabd Highlands, 1 Mabtha's Vinetabd, August 29, 187.) The President and his party arrived from Newport via Wood's Hole, on the steamer Biver Queen, on Thursday, landing at the Highlands Wharf at P. M. It being the first that any great rulor has visited the Island since' Klng Philip, of unblessed memory, came over in 1675, to persuade his dusky brothers to join in exterminating the whites, an immense concourse had assembled at tho Camp Meeting lauding and on the highlands adjacent.

A kindly and respectful feeling toward the President was clearly visible, bnt the greeting of the masses was leBB jubilant and onthusiastic than might have been expected. THE PKEKIDENTIAL BETINUE WAS LARGE, and not many got a view of him aB he modeatly took his seat in tbe open horse car, which had been tastefully and patriotically decorated for the oocasion. Proceeding from theJHigblande Wharf, he arrived at 1 P. M. at his temporary residence, the beautiful cottage lately presented to Bishop Haven on Clinton avenue.

In about a quarter of an hour he was brought to the large tent, iu and around which was an assemblage of ten or fifteen thousand people. The President of the Campmeeting Association, Bev. Dr. Talbot, presented tbe President to tbe vast audience, which gro ted him with hearty cheers and waving of handkerobiefs. The President in response bowed gracefully.

Dr. Talbot then introduced Pico President Wilson, Postmaster General Jewdl, and Gov. Talbot, of Massachusetts. It had Veen expected by many of the audience that they would have an opportunity to shake the President's hand, but such a performance would have lasted some hours. Accordingly that ceremony was omitted, and the distinguished guest retired to the cottage of Kev.

Dr. Tiffany, who is the President's pastor at Washington. An admirable dinner was served up to the President and bis company at tbe House at 6 P. M. On the evening ef Thursday an illumination of the south end of Clinton avenue, and of Oak Bluffs, took place.

Some five thousand Chinese lanterns were displayed, and there was a very brilliant exhibition of fireworks. The Foxboro brass band discoursed elegant music Martna's Vineyard never saw suoh splendor before. It was witnessed by not Icbs than 26,000 spectators. At half psBt nine o'olook the fireworks were burnt out. Many thousands now swarmed to the vicinity of Dr, Tiffany's cottage, where Presi dent and Mrs.

Grant received those to whom Dr. and Mrs. Tiffany had extended a speoial invitation. At quarter past ten o'clock the President, being fatigued by the "show bUBineBB, whioh he never greatly en joyed, slipped away by a side door, and drawing HIS HAT DOWN OYEB HIS EYES, went unattended to' hfl 'tttnporary residence, leaving Mrs. Grant to receive the guests, who were still thronging in.

Yesterday morning, at 8 o'clook, the steamer Biver Queen, whose polite officers informed us that during the latter part of the war it was in the Government service, and that President Lincoln occupied the same rooms that are now assigned to President Grant, took on board at the Highland Wharf the Presidential party and proceeded to Nantucket. Beside the President and Mrs. Grant there were ex Secretary Boutwell, Postmaster General Jewell, Secretary Belknap, General and Mrs. Babcock, ex Governor Smith, Hon. Geo.

B. Loring, Mayor Frost, of Chelsea Collector SimmonB, Hon. John Morrisey, of Boston Hon. Oliver Hoyt, of Stamford, President Stearns, of the Old Colony Railroad ex President WInslow, of the Cape Cod Bail road; Hon. O.

Stickney, of Fall Biver Captain Phillips and Hon. O. Crocker, of Taunton Bev. Dr. Tiffany and Mrs.

Tiffany, BlBhop Haven, Dr. Whedon, Professor Ouehlng, Col. H. B. Sprague, Bev.

Messrs. Bates, Willets, Upham, Hamilton and others. At ID o'clook we reached Nantucket, where a salute was fired, aud the United States flag fluttered from every maBl, chimney and stump. Nantucket had put on its Sunday clothes and came out en masse to see for the first time a live President. The party was hospitably entertained at the Ocean House, where POSTMASTEB GENEBAI, JEWELL MADE A WITTY AND TELLING SPEECH.

The New Bedford Brass Band, which accompanied ub, were made happy at the Sherburne House. Mrs. General H. A. Barnum joined the party at Nantucket.

At 11X o'clook we left this queer old town for Hyannls, which we reached at o'clock. The Presidential party there took the Old Colony Bailroad for Province town, and thence to Woods Hole, where the eteamer Biver Queen was in readiness to convey them back to Martha's Vineyard. Here they arrived at 10 o'clock, having.enjoyed a most delightful day. The President and Mrs, Grant are to remain over Sunday at Bishop Haven's cottage. What eff ect has all this pageantry upon the great camp meeting which 1b now in full blast It is clear that it has, for a day at least, almost wholly absorbed public attention, and epme of the more prominent MethLdists are of the opinion, that tbe President's visit, however acceptable on any other week, is unfortunately iimed, piit this perhaps, be a too hatty conclusion, There is nothing irreligious either in the visit itself or in tbe characters of the dls tinguiBhed guests, and I apprehend that in after years, tho memory of all this parade will blend not inhar moniouBly with the remembrance of fervent prayers and earnest exhortations and sweet sacred songs.

It is a great thing to Bee so muoh beauty and splendor and enthusiasm, and all without a particle of drunkenness or gambling or other immorality. It may be of interest to state that the camp meeting was opened on Monday evening by an exoellent sermon delivered by Kev. Dr. Talbot. He was followed by Bev.

MesarB. Smith, Sargent, and North, on Tuesday; Bev. Messrs. Morrison, Graoy, and MoOhesney, on Wednesday; Bev. Prof.

Cushlng and Chaplain Hibben, on Thursday; Bev. Messrs. Moray, Morris, and Sawyer, yesterday Bev. Messrs. Townsend, Beed, and Bates, are to preach to day Bishop Haven is to preach to morrow (Sunday), and Dr.

Tiffany is to follow. Tbe Bermons thus far have, for the most part, been charaoterized by great power and eloquence. Their effect for good muBt not be measured by the number of conversions. can attend these services through camp meeting' week without going away wiBer and better. The' inspiration gained here will run an average or Sunday School through a whole year.

Three steamers ply daily between us and New Bedford; four between us and Wood's Hole; two between us and Nantucket. The Martha's Vineyard Railroad iB at last in active operation, running seven trains daily from Oak Bluffs to Ratama and return. It should have been running on the 26th of July, but a series of accidents delayed the opening. First the cars did not come for several weeks alter they were due; next tho dummy engine was utterly inadequate, and a now locomotive had to be procured; two weeks ago to day this was knocked off tbe wharf at Wood's Hole by on unruly freight train, and had to be fished up. All right now, however.

Every train is crowded to the utmost. Bbode Island clam bakes at ot Ratama are the order of tho day. Life ia not considered perfeot without an occa clonal din ner at "Mattakeeset Lodge," which surely is one of the best hotels ever seen by Matha's Vineyard. 8, CRIMINAL RECORD. Three murders Shot for Stealing Fruit Another Italian murder.

Three murders were the results of quarrels on Saturday. In Pittston, a quarrel took place in a saloon. A Bailor named Michael Farrell, and a companion, got into an altercation with Alonzo Mllli gan, ex Ohiof of Police of the Borough. Tho two men assaulted him and to defend himself he caught up a guu that stood in the corner. The assailants also armed themselves with guns, and the sailor fired at Mllligan but missed fire.

Milligan, who had tried in the meantime to get away, then returned Farrell's fire, wounding him in the breast. He was at once arrested but was releaEed on bail. Farrell died shortly afterward. At Canton, Bradford County, on Friday night, a ne gro assaulted a girl, about seven years old, named Gre.nleaf. He cut her throat from ear to ear, and then tried to commit Buloiaejiy jumping in front of a paaB iDg train.

He failed ia the attempt to take bis own life, but both legs were broken. He is now in cUBtody. On Saturday night, a Frenchman, named Gardiner, was walking on tbe railroad track, near Henryville, Md when he was attacked by three men, who robbed him and then lied him to the traok over a small oulvert and leit him. He succeeded in getting all the fastenings loose, except those confining his loft foot. A passenger train came along and he was unable to signal the engineer, and the train ran over hiB foot, outHng it off.

He fell into the oulvert, crawled out, and lay there until morning, when he wbb found and taken to Jeffersonvlllo, where he dledyesterday. Another Italian OTurdert Two Italians, named Sebastain and Costa, living at No. 45 Crosby Btreet, were, arranging some money matters in their room, when another Italian named Supeanno entered the room and began abusing MfthHRHfln Ann.hn Ttoltnv. nnmof li'A inO WSB aiSU present. In order to avoid a fight, Sobastlan went into the back yard, and tho rest of tho party soon followed niirl tlift .1 A QnU.t.ln afaVtad Falmo in tbo abdomenan, and Supeanno was stabbed by Coata in tbe tho heart.

The wounded men were taken to Bellevue Hospltalwbern thcrl wounds prono need fatol. The assailant were looked up, PROSPECT PARK. Saturday afternoon at the Park. To what more attractive place can the city bound turn? Con terno's band is tbere, the Lake Cottage, the Dairy Farmhouse, spreading lawns, embowed pathways, inviting recesses and the thousand of other things which have become delightfully familiar to all. The Park was thronged as usual on Saturday afternoon, A great multitude clustered around THE MUSIC STAND, and others found shady comfort under wide spreading trees or trod the Binuous avenue, or were propelled over the glistening waters of the Lake.

The croquet parties were numerous, and their sports were witnessed by many. The day was lively, and many lingered till the moonbeams silvered the tree topB and checker worked the path, and danced on tbe waters of the lake. And the beautiful breathing place was crowded again yeBterday. THE PLAZA FOUNTAIN is the first grand attraction which meets the eye of the excurBioniBt as he outers the home of nature. From its hundred pipes there was spurted forth a vast volume of water, clear as crystal, which rose and danced in the sunlight and fell in many fantastic shaps of all colors.

The crowds came, some in their carrigea, others on foot, and tho majority by the horse cars from tbo various eeotions of the city. THE PARK PHAETONS, which Have their stand at the grand entrance, were liberally patronized so also were the boats which float so gracefully over the winding lake. The multitudes had no end of attractions. Some went to tho Dairy farm house, the Picnic grounds, the Carousal, the Concert grove, the Lookout Hill Observatory, the highest elevation in the Park, and the Artesian supplies 45,000 gallons of pure water every hour. Perhaps the newest attraction in the Park is the wonderful CAMERA OB3CURA, located on the summit of Breeze Hill, which is half way between (be music stand and Observatory.

By means of the camera the finest views in tbe Park and of the Burrounding country, even as far as the ocean, are brought before the eyes like animated pictures in a email space. Tho vivid accuracy with which every scene is presented on tho circular oanvas in that little darkened room is a wonder and delight to all. From early morn until sunset the crowds of old and young came and enjoyed themselves in their several ways, and will come overy day without bojoming wtarieo. STY DU1 IN (it MATCH. The Amazons of tiie Flood The Race at tort Hamilton.

The swimming match between the girls at Fort Hamilton yesterday was a failure. Tbere were five thousand people present to witnesB the long de layed and ridiculously contested match. At length, when the girls who were to contest lor tne piize appeared only four of tho water witches putting in an appearance tbey could hardly get into tbe water for the interruptions, and when they did go in tbe "boys" surrounded tbem so complotely tbat tbe reporter could hardly tell where the rivals were contending, and who was likely to bo the victor. It was more like a "scrub race" on laud tbau anything eise. Tbe uames of tbe contestants were Annio Hall, Katie Hall, Annie Bokenkamp and Adeline Bokeu kamp.

It was intended to start several more, but ow iDg to the declination of MiBB Lillie Ledorer, who won the $150 piano prize two years ago, to swim some of the young ladies got frightened and woutd notentor the surf or the match, even although the prize should bo dear to every young lady's heart. After wading out a short distance, tho race began. Only about three hundred yards was gone over, and Miss Annie Bokenkamp was declared the winner; time, two minutes. It 1b said there will be another match with more contestonts probably this week. In response to a question by the reporter, Miss Bennett stated that the reason these matches took place on Sunday was that it waB the only day the friends of the fair oontestantB could leave the city to see the performance.

Mr. Moulton told several of the New York reporters that he was in receipt of letters from many members of Plymouth Church expressing admiration, not Icbs for his lreroic action" on Friday night, than for his course, throughout tho entire scandal. As none of these letters have been published, and as they are not likely to figure prominently in Mr. Moulton's forthcoming statement, wo have deemed it proper to comply with the wish of a correspondent, and print the following letter, addressed by a member of Plymouth Oburch to Mr. Moulton THE LETTEB.
