The Beecher Scandal.
In ouothor part of tlio papor we publish
tbo main portion of tlio statement and
charges mado by Mr. Tilton, against Rov.
Henry "Ward Beccher, This romarkablo
account is presented to the committee ap
pointed to Investigate tlio case, duly at
tested by oath of Mr. Tilton, before a
Notary Public, and scorns so explicit and
corroborated by so many letters that tho
unprejudiced reader is almost forced to be
lieve. But as Mr. Boocher and Mrs. Til
ton promise to " satisfactorily explain,"
justice requires that wo await tho promis
ed explanation, before forming a definite
opinion of Mr. Beechor's guilt. It is a sad
case no matter bow it may torminato, and
all who wish Mr. Bcechor safe deliverance
from the terriblo charge will look with in
terest for his reply.
liATEH.
Since tho above was In typo both Mrs,
Tilton and Mr. Beochor have placed thoir
answer boforo tho public. The formor
makes quite'a lengthy statement, in which
she declares her husband's testimony en
tirely false, and says bis aim is to destroy
Beechor. Mr. Beechcr also makes a gen
eral denial of tho wholo statement, and
says that the wholo charge is absolutely
false. IIo refers to tho lottor which is pub
lished in Tilton's statement, as being writ
ten by him (Beechor,) to Moulton as fol
lows :
" Behoving at tho time that my presence
and counsels had tended, however uncon
sciously, to produce a social catastrophe
represented as imminent, I gave expres
sion to ray feelings in an interview with a
mutual friend, not in cold and cautious
self defending words, but eagerly taking
blamo upon himself, and pouring out my
heart to my friend in the strongest lan
guage, overburdened with the exaggera
t tions of impassioned sorrow. Had I boon
tho evil man Mr. Tilton now represents, I
should have boon more prudont. It was
my horror of the evil imputed that filled
me with a morbid intensity at the very
shadow of it. Not only was my friend af
fected generously, but he assured mo that
such expressions, if conveyed to Mr. Til
ton, would soothe woundod feeling,' allay
anger and boal the whole trouble. Ho took
down sentences and fragments of what I
had been saying to use them as a mediator.
A full statement of tho circumstances un
der which this memorandum was made I
shall give to the investigating committee."
As the case now stands, tho majority
of people will consider that tho roply has
done very little towards explaining the
chargos mado by Tilton. If Mr. Moulton
would tell what ho kuows about tho case,
it might aid the public in forming a correct
verdict.
What a Woman Can Do.
Kocently at Ocean Grove, N. J., George
Woichley of Philadelphia, was soon drown
ing. His father and mother wore on the
shore with hundreds of spectators. The
young man came to the surface three times
the last time barely rising, and then disap
peared. Men and ropes were despatched,
and while they were hunting for him the
waves washed his body on tho shore. Dr.
Hastings, of Philadelphia, applied elec
tricity, injected brandy, and superintended
the rubbing and other treatment, which,
after a long time, enabled the youth to
take up his life just where he left it, and
for hours, whenever he had any conscious
ness, he endeavored to shout " Help me I
help me !" He is slowly recovering under
the care of Dr. Hastings. Dr. Hastings
graduated In a medical colloge of Phila
delphia, whore she has practiced for five
years. She has saved other drowning per
sons at the watering places on the coast of
New Jersey.
Printers Poisoned.
Cincinnati, July 21. -Yesterday morning
when the Qazellt compositors went borne it
was deemed necessary that they should be
escorted by policemen. During the day
threats were made by some of the Union
men against the new compositors. In one
instance a letter was sent to the sister of
one of them saying that if her brother did
not leave the composing room there would
be blood shed. Last night after the regu
lar midnight lunch, a pumber of composi
tors were seized with severe purging and
vomiting, accompanied with a burning sen
sation in their throats and stomachs.
Many of the men were obliged to go to
their homes. It is supposed that the coffee
was poisoned. Some of the coffee was
preserved, and chemical analysis will be
, made of it to-day.
J3T'lhe JNewpo.t girls have taken to
bathing in publio without fig loaves, and
one of the papers mildly says it would seem
that this, thing had gone about far enough
and needs' looking after. Well there are
pleuty of chaps who will be willing to look
after It, we presume.
THE BEECnER AND TILTON CASE.
For a long time rumors have been in cir
culation affecting tho character of Rov.
Ilonry Ward Beechor. At last tho public
demand for an investigation into the truth
of tho charges has led to the selection of a
committee composed of six prominent
members of Mr. Beechor's congregation,
who have been taking testimony on tho sub
ject. Among tho. persons examined was
Mr. Theodore Tilton who makes a most ro
markablo statement, which he has classified
into 22 different chargos. Tho most im
portant are the following :
In several places we have put asterisks,
() where tho matter is of a nature that.
we consider it uufit for publication.
First. That on the 2nd of October, 1855, nt
Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, a marriugo be
tween Theodore Tilton and Elizabeth M. Rlch
ards was performed by the Rev. Heury Ward
Beochcr, which marringo, thirteen years after
ward, was dishonored and violated by this
clergyman through the criminal seduction of
this wife and mother as hereinafter set forth.
Second. That for a period of about liftecn
years, extending both before and after this
marriage, on Intimate friendship existed be
tween Theodore Tilton and the Rev. Henry
Ward Beechcr, which was cemented to such a
degree that, In conaequenco thereof, the subse
quent dishonoring by Mr. Boocher of bis friend's
wife was a crime of uncommon wrongfulness
and perfidy.
Third. That about ulno years ago the Rev.
Henry Ward Beechor began and thereafter con
tinued a friendship with Mrs. Elizabeth R.
Tilton, for whoso natlvo dolicacy and extreme
religious sensibility he often expressed to her
husband a high admiration, visiting her from
time to tlmo for years, until the year 1870,
when, for reasons hereinafter stated, he ceas
ed such visits, during which period, by many
tokens and attentions, he won the affection
aud love of Mrs. Tilton, whoreby after long
moral resistance by her, and after repeated
assaults by him upon her mind with overmas
tering arguments, accomplished the possession
of her person, maintaining with her thence
forward during tho period hereinafter stated
the relation callod criminal intercourse, this
relation being regarded by her during that
period as not criminal or morally wrong.
Such had been the power of his arguments as
a clergyman to satisfy her religious scruples
against such violations of virtue aud honor.
Fourth. That on the evening of October 10,
1808, or thereabouts, Mrs. Elizabeth R. Tilton
held an interview with the Rev. Henry Ward
Beechcr at his residence, she being then in a
tender state of mind, owing to the recent
death and burial of a young child, and during
this Interview an act of criminal commerco
took place between this pastor and this par
ishioner, tho actiOn on her part being as
hereinbefore stated, not regarded by her at
the time as criminal or wrong, which act was
followed by a similar act of criminal inter
course between tho same parties, at Mr. Til
ton's residence, during a pastoral visit paid
by Mr. Beccher on tho subsequent Saturday
evening, followed also by other similar acts,
on variouB occasions, from the autumn of 1808
to the spring of 1870, the places being the two
residences aforesaid, and occasionally other
places, to which her pastor would Invite and
accompany her, or at which he would meet her
by previous appointment, these acts of wrong
being, on her part, from first to last, not wan
ton or consciously wicked, but arising through
a blending of her moral perceptions, occasion
ed by tho powerful influence exerted on her
mind at that lime, to this end, by tho Rev.
Henry Ward Beechor as her trusted religious
preceptor and guido.
Fifth. That the pastoral visits mado by the
Rov. Henry Ward Beechcr to Mrs. Tilton in
tho year 1803 became so frequent as to excito
comment, being In marked contrast with his
known habit of making few pastoral calls on
his parishioners, which frequently, in Mrs.
Tilton's case, is shown in letters written to
her husband during his absence in the West,
these letters giving evidenco that during tho
period of live or six weeks twelve different
pastoral calls on Mrs. Tilton wore made by tho
Rev. Henry Ward Beccher, which calls be
came noticeably infrequent on Mr. Tilton's
return to his home.
Seventh. That tho first suspicion which
crossed tho mind of Theodore Tilton that the
Rev. Henry Ward Beccher was abusing, or
might abuse, tho affection and reverence
which Mrs. Tilton bore towards her pastor was
an improper caress given by Mr. Beccher to
Mrs. Tilton while seated by her side on the
lloor of his library overlooking engravings.
Mr. Tilton, a few hours aftcrwurds, asked of
his wife an explanation of her permission of
such a liberty, whereat she at first denied the
fact, but then confessed It, and said that she
bad spoken chidingly to Mr. Beecher concern
ing It. On another occasion Mr. Tilton, after
leaving his house In the early morning, re
turned to it In the forenoon , and on going to
his bedchamber found the door locked, and
when, on knocking, the door was opened by
Mrs. Tilton, Mr. Beecher was seen within, ap
parently much confused and exhibiting a
flushed face. Mrs. Tilton afterwards mado a
plausible explanation, which, from the confi
dence reposed in her by her husband, was by
him deemed satisfactory.
Eighth. That In the spring of 1870, on Mr.
Tilton's roturn from a winter's absence, he
noticed in his wife such evidences of the ab
sorption of her mind In Mr. Beecher that, in
a short time, an estrangement took place be
tween her husband and herself, in consequence
of which she went Into the country earlier
than usual for a summer sojourn. After an ab
sence of several weeks she voluntarily re
turned to her home in Brooklyn on the evening
of July 3, 1870, when and then and there,
within a few hours after her arrival, and after
exacting from her husband a solemn promise
that he would do Rev. Henry Ward Beecher
no harm, nor communicate to him what she
was about to say, she made a circumstantial
confession to her husband of the criminal facts
hereinbefore stated, accompanied with cita
tions from Beecher's arguments aud reason
ings with her (o overcome her long-maintained
scruples against yielding to his desires.
She said that her mind was often
burdened by the deceit necessary for bur to
practice in order to prevent discovery, and
that ber conscience had mauy times Unpolled
her to throw off this burden of enforced false
hood by making a full confession to her hus
band so that she would no longer be living be
fore him a perpetual He. In particular, she
said that she had beon on the point of making
this confession a few months previously, dur
ing a severe Illness, when she feared she might
die. She affirmed, also, that Mr. Boecher had
assured her repeatedly that he loved her better
than he had ever loved any other woman, and
she felt Justified before uod In her intimacy
with him, save the necessary deceit which ac
companied it and at which she frequently suf
fered In her mind.
A'inlh. That after the above-named confes
sion by Mrs. . R. Tilton she had returned to'
the country to await such action by her hus
band as he might s lit to take, whereupon,
after many considerations, the chief of which
was that she had not voluntarily gone astray,
but had been artfully misled through religious
reverence for the Rev. Henry W. Beecher as
her spiritual adviser, also from a desire to
protect the family from open shame, Mr. Til
ton condoned the wrong, and he addressed to
his wife such letters of affection, tendernoss,
and respect as ho felt would restore her
wounded Bplrlt, and which did partially pro
duce that result.
The charges from the 9th to the 21st, are
nearly a repetition of the others.
Twenty-first. That one evonlng about two
weeks after the publication of Mr. Tilton's
letter to Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Tilton, on coming
home at a late hour, informed her husband
that she had been visited at a friend's house
by a committee of investigation,, and had given
swooping evidence acquitting Mr. Beechor of
every charge. This was tho firBt Intimation
which Mr. Tilton received that any such com
mittee was then In existence Furthermore,
Mrs. Tilton stated Hint she had done this by
tho advice of a lawyer, whom Mr. Beecher had
sent to her, and who, in advance of her ap
pearing before the commltleo, arranged with
her tho qnostlons and answers which were to
constitute her testimony In Mr. Beechor's be
half. On the next day after giving tho untrno
testimony before tho committee she spent
many hours of extreme suffering from pangs
of conscienco at having tcstlllod falsoly. She
expressed to her husband the hope that God
would forgive her perjury, but that tho motivo
was to save Mr. Beechcr and her husband, and
also to remove all rcprouch from tho cause of
religion. She also expressed similar contrition
to one of her intimate friends.
To substantiate theso chargos, Mr. Til
ton submits a number ot letters, a part of
which we annex :
Mrt. Tilton to her Husband.
December SO, 1870 Midnight. My Dear Hus
band . 1 desire to leave witli you before going to
bed a statement that Mr. Henry Ward Beecher
called upon me this evening and asked me If I
would defend lilrn against accusation In a council
o( ministers, and I replied solemnly that I would
In case the accuser was any other person than my
husband. He (II. W. U.) dictated a letter which
1 copied as my own to lie used by him as against
any other accuser except my husband. This let
ter was designed tovlndieate Mr. Beecher against
all other persons save only yourself. I was roady
to give him this letter because ho said with pain
that my letter In your hands, addressed to him,
dated December 29, had struck him dead and end
ed his usefulness. You and I are pledged to do
our best to avoid publicity, (iod grant a 9peedy
end to all further anxieties. Affectionately,
EUZAHETII.
Mr. Beecher't Ajnloflu in trust with F. D.
Moulton.
My Dear Friend Moulton : I ask, through you,
Theodore 1 llton's forgiveness, and I luiniblo my
self before him as I do before my (iod. He would
have been a better man in my circumstances than
1 have been, lean ask nothing except that ho
will remember nil the other breasts that would
ache. I will not plead for myself. I even wish
that I were dead j hut others must live to sutler.
I will die before any one but myself shall be In
culpated. All my thoughts are running out to
wards my friends and towards the poor child ly
ing thero and praying with her folded hands.
Hho Is guiltless, sinned against, bearing the
transgression of another. Her forgiveness I have.
1 humbly pray to Hod to put It into the heart of
hor husband to forgive me. I have trusted this to
Moultou In conlideiice.
H. W. BEECIlEIt.
In the above document the last sentence and the
signature are in the handwriting of the Rev.
Heury Ward Beecher.
Mr. Beechcr to Mrt. Tilton.
nr ix .. ..... Brooklyn, Feb. 7, 1871.
My Dear Mrs. Milton : When I saw you last I
did not expect ever to see you again, or to lie alivo
many days. God was kinder to me than were my
own thoughts. Tho friend whom God sent me,
Mr. Moulton, has proved above all friends that I
ever had, able and willing to help me In this ter
rible emergency of my life. His hand It was that
tied up tho storm that was ready to burst on our
heads. ou have no friend, Theodore excepted,
who has it In his power to serve you so vitally and
who will do It with such delicacy and honor. It
does my sore heart good to see in Mr. Moulton an
unfeigned respect; and honor for! you. It would
kill me If I thought otherwise. He will be as true
a Ir end to your honor aud happiness as a brother
could be to a sister's. In him we have a common
ground. You and I may meet in him. The past
Is ended. Hut Is there no future no wiser, high
er, hol er future ? May not this friend stand as a
priest in the sanctuary of reconciliation and me
diate, and bless Theodore and my most unhappy
self. Do not let my earnestness fall of Its end.
You believe In my Judgement. I have put myself
wholly and gladly In Moulton's hand, mid there I
must meet you. This Is sent with Theodore's con
sent, but he has not read It. Will you return It to
me by his own hand? I am very earnest In this
wish for all our sakes, as such a letter ought not
to be subject to even a chance of miscarriage.
Your unhappy friend,
JI. W. Beech eb,
Mr. Bctclier to Mr. Moulton.
No man can see the difficulties that environ me
unless he stands where 1 do. To say that I have
a church on my hands is simple, but to have him.
i.i 1 if luousands ot luon presslug each one
with his keen suspicions, or anxiety: to prevent
any one questlonliig me : to meet and allay nrej
ndices against T. TV which had their beginnings
years before ; to keep serene as If I was not
alarmed or disturbed i to be cheerful at home
and among friends, when I was suffering the tor
ments of the damned ; to pass sleepless nights,
and yet to come up fresh and fair for Sunday all
this may be talked about, but the real tiling can
not be understood from the outsldo, nor Its wear
ing and grinding ou the nervous system.
In still another letter written for the same pur-'
pose as the above, Mr. Beecher said :
Mr. Beecher to Mr. Moulton.
If my destruction would place him Mr. Tlltonl
all .right, that shall not stand in the way. I am
wllluiji to step down and out. No one can sutler
more than that. That I do otter. Haeriilce me
without hesitation if you can clearly see your way
to h s safety and happiness thereby. In one point
of view 1 could desire the sacrifice on my part.
Nothing can possibly be so bad as the power of the
great darkness In which I spend much of my
tlmo. I look upon death as sweeter far than any
friend I have in tho world. Life would be pleas
ant If 1 could see that rebuilt which has been shat
tered by the sharp and rugged edge of anxiety,
remorse, fear, and despair, and yet to put on an
appearance of serenity and happiness can't be en
dured much longer. I am well-nigh discouraged.
If you cease to trust me to love me I am alone.
I do not know any person In the world to whom I
could go.
Mr. Tilton yielded to the above quoted and other
similar letters and made no defence of himself
against the public odium which attached to him
unjustly.
Mr. Beecher to Mr. Moulton.
Dear Friend i I am determined to make no
more resistance. Theodora's temperament Is
such that the tuture, even if temporarily earned,
would be absolutely worthless, and render me
liable at any hour of the day to bo obliged to
stultify all the devices by which we have saved
ourselves. It Is only fair that he should know
that the publication of the card wlileh he proposes
would leave him worse oil than before. The agree
nient, viz., "tripartite covenant," was made after
my letter through you to tilin. When aiMilogy was
written he had had It a year t he had condoned
his wife's fault t he had enjoined upon me with
the utmost earnestness and solemnity not to be
tray his wife, nor leave his children to such a
blight. WUh such a man as Theodore Tilton,
there Is no possible salvation for any tiiat depend
upon him. With a strong nature, he does not
know how to govern It. There Is House In trying
further. I have a strong feeling upon me, and It
brings great peace, that I am sjieudliig my last
buuduy and preaching iny last sermon.

A Terrible Murder.
At South Boston, the remains of little
Katie Mary Curran, a girl of ton years,
who so mysteriously disappeared some four
months ago, was found in the collar of the
building No. 327 Broadway, formerly occu
pied as a store by Mrs. K, H. Pomoroy,
mother of a young Pomeroy, who is now in
jail awaiting trial for oruolly torturing and
murdering a young boy by tho name of
Millcn, on the 22nd of April last.
Tlio discovery was made by somo work
men employed in an adjoining collar. A
stone was loosened and fell upon a pile of
ashos in a part formerly occupiod by tho
Pomcroys, and upon going in to remove it,
a fragment of a dress was soon protruding
from the heap. Upon pulling it out the childs
head was brought to light. Tho police
wore at onco summoned and the unnatural
grave was more fully examined, whoa tho
rcmaindor of the body was exhumed.
The remains wore much decomposed and
wholly unrecognizablo, but tho clothing
was fully identified as that of tho littlo
Curran girl. Both detectives aud tho pa
rents of the unfortunate littlo ono were
sent for. Tho grief of the latter upon fully
realizing the horrible facts of the. case was
heart-rending. The excitement was so"in-
tonso that tho mother and eldor brother of
tho Pomoroy boy were arrested, not that
any suspicion that they were accessory to
tho atrocious acts of tho young fiond, but
as a moans of safety, it being foarcd that
they would bo lynched by tho excited
crowd.
The theory of the dotcctives is that tbo
young murderer euticcd bis victim into the
cellar during! the absence of bis mother,
and after torturing her to death disposed
of tho remains in the manner above do
scribed. The officers bad, as they supposod,
mado a thorough search of tho premises at
the time of Pomoroy's arrest, but tho ash
heap showed no signs of having boeu dis
turbed, and tho borriblo secret it concealed
was not even suspected.
Boston, July 19. An examination of the
remains of Katie Curran, mado to-day
showed that tho girl bad boon terribly mu
tilated with a knifo in a similar manner to
that of tho boy Milieu, for whose murdor
young Pomeroy is now bold. Pomeroy's
mother and brothorare still hold in oustody.
A Singular Case.
Lato on Monday night a week a German
named Henry Orr, aged 85 years, was dan
gerously burned near Second and Nice
town road by the ignition of coal oil, which
be was carrying. He had a bottle con
taining kerosene in one of his pookots with
some matches, and, while walking along
Second street, tho oil suddenly caught fire
and the fire spread through bis clothing.
All ablaze, he jumped into a pool of water
near by and extinguished the flames. IIo
then walked along the North Pennsylvania
Railroad, which was near, and was met by
two policemen, who, notioing bis condition
took him to tho Episoopal Hospital. He
was admitted into the hospital about mid
night, and his injuries were attended to.
The flesh from tho crown of bis bead to bis
waist was excoriated, bis ears being burned
almost to a crisp. Tho young man has
since died from the injuries.
Stealing a Long Bide.
At Erio on Wednesday two kittons wore
noticod on a passenger car on tho Philadel
phia and Erio railroad bound for the east.
They were not recognized as passengers
and bad to surrender their positions. The
train was started under the supposition
that the grimalkins had been left behind,
and nothing more was thought of them un
til the train stopped in the Pennsylvania
railroad depot in Harrisburg on Wednesday
night when to the astonishment of the
conductor and others, the kittens were dis
covered perched on one of the trucks un
der the car from which they had been ex
pelled. It seems incredible that the cats
could have ridden over 300 miles in their
dangorous hiding place without meeting
with a catastrophe.

of indictment or as the jury stated in their
verdict, "guilty generally." Before the
case was submitted to the jury Judge Green
said : " Before you can convict you must
be satisfied in your own minds that the com
monwealth has proved beyond a doubt that
the defondant did maliciously and wantonly
embezzle this money." Mr. Smith, counsel
for Grior, has made a motion for a new
trial. Ilarritburg Patriot.

New York, July 21. A special despatch

1 Scared to Death.
A short time ago, a horse belonging to
John G. Grant, of Albany township, died
in a very singular maimer near Blackwoll's,
In Monroe township. The horse was afraid
of the cars, and knowing this fact, Mr. G.
took it into a shed until the train came up.
Tho horse was very much frightened, and
stood trembling while Mr. Grant held It.
Suddonly tho locomotive gave a shrill
sound with tho whistle and the horse drop
ped dead. IIo soomed entirely well before
the train came up, and It was evidontly
frightened to death. Laporls Prets.
The Stylish Feminine -Shoe.
Hygionically the shoes of to-day are a
success ; they promote health by keoping
the feet dry, and they strengthen tho ankles
by fitting them securely. Thoy make it
easier for womon to walk, aud thoy enable
thorn to stand longor than they ever did in
the thin-solo, low shoes. The shoo as it is
to-day, with its low, broad beol, its wido
solo, and high top is the best that has ever
been doviscd, and it will never be super
seded by anything that will be more bo
coming, more tasty, or more available for
all purposes.
t3T On Monday evening a gang of min
ers from the Boll's Gap mines, came to
Altoona to witness tho foot-race. As usual,
they became drunk and in returning on
tho Cincinnati Express, In the evening,
created a row in the cars, in which J. K.
Russell, a railroad foreman residing at
Tyrone and several others were roughly
handled. A colored man named Jamos
Coopor, a thro' passenger, was also attack
ed, and was either thrown off, or jumped
off tho train, and sustained serious in
juries. He was brought to Altoona in the
evoning, and has been lying in an insensi
ble condition since. On Tuesday morning,
Theodore Swisher and Patrick Mohan,
bolioved to bo the ring-loadors in the riot,
were arrested and in default of bail, wore
committed to jail.
