World, Jon. .1.3 • The disappearance, return, and subs°. quent conduct of the Rev. Horace Cooke continued to be yesterday the principal topic of conversation throughout the city. Various opinions were expressed in re gard to the affair which has brought ,so 'much discredit on kis fame, and many persons declared their belief that the man Is either positively insane or In a mental condition closely bordering on insanity. Cooke remained all Wednesday night at the Beekman street atation•hodse, and was yesterday morning taken from that place to the tombs. • . 'AT THE TOMBS. There h 5 wee placed in the "dock,' with about forty prisoners, male and fe- I Male.: Ho WAS not; however, allowed to remain long in this disgusting and hu miliating place, ono of the clerks of the court ordering an officer to give him a seat on one' of the outside benches. Cooke looked wildly:about for a moment, and then sat for some time with his head bowed and covered with his hands. He did not seem to have recovered entirely from the nervous excitement of the pre vious night, but was muck more quiet in his demeanor and, spoke but little, his eyes, however, retaining their wild, fe verish look. HE TS vane RETICENT. William Barrett, one of rho Tombs squad, Who is a member of the Norfolk street Methodist Church, approached Cooke and questioned him as to whether his family were pleased at his return, and as to where he bad ken with Miss John. son. Cooke replied brnfly that he was greeted kindly by the members f his family on -returning, but declined to state where he bed been with Mies Johnson, saying that it was only a short distance from the city. 'The said that the ghl re. turned to her home as pure and virtuous m when he took her away.. He said that he went home about 8 o'clock on Wed nesday evening, and that he at once started for The World office. COON IS DISCHARGED. When Justice Cox took his seat on the bench, Cook was brought up to the rail ing, and, no one appesrieg to make a complaint, was discharged. The Justice said to him: "Mr. Cook, you have been I making yourself unenvbly notorious lately, but aa there is n iao complainant here I have no option but to dismiss the complaint. You are discharged, sir." Cook seemed to feel greatly pleased at his release, and with" a bow and "thank you" to the Justice, at once left the court room in company with several friends. THE LAST SEEN OF COOK YESTERDAY. One of these accompanied him to Broadway, where both visited the restau rant under the Merchants' Union Express office, at the cortter of Franklin street, and partook of some breakfast. Their next move was to engage a carriage, Into which they stepped,* giving the driver directions to take them . somewhere, up town. This was the last seen of Cooke yesterday. He did' not return to his !ms° in Seventh street, and at a late hour last night neither Mrs. Cooke nor any other intimate acquaintance had either awn or beard of him. Tagus TQ ea LISSAEZ AILYLUAL The reason why no appearance against Cooke was made on his ar raignment at the Tombs, was that his friends had given assurance on Wednes day evening that they would take charge of him. They expressed themselves ex ceedingly gratified at:his arrest, and felt relieved of much anxiety when they found that he was placed where he could do neitherkhnself nor any one else bodily injury. It is believed that his friends, in fulfillment of their assurance of Wednes. day night, have placed Cooke in =insane asylum; in fact it was so reported last evening, and the 'report was credited by many of the acquaintances of the man. wn:nns WAS COOKE DURING HIS ABSENCE? Where Cook took MitieJohnson the day they disappeared has not been ascertain. ed, both Cook and the Johnson family being very reticent upon the subject. I Borne say he went to Pniladelphia, while' others assert that he was all the time in Jersey City. At all events he turned up again at the Everett Haase on Wedges-' day afternoon about three o'clock, where he entered, aqd stated that be wished rooms for himeelf and slater,and registered the names of Frederick Campbell and Min Mary Campbell, Harrisburg, Penn. HE DISPLAYS NO NERVOUSNESS. The writing was ha a bcdd band that did not show the slightest sign of nervous. near In the writer. - He and his companion I were assigned to separate rooms; but Cooke did not remain more than an hour it the hotel before he started out and walked rapidly down Fourth avenue, probably on Ids way home, as he appeared In Seventh street at about that hour. He did not return to the Everetthouse at all, and In two or three hours Mr. Johnson came and took the young lady away, CRAVING THE PARSONAGE. The Onkel* of the Seventh Street Church having discharged Cooke from the pastorship, Mrs. Cooke was engaged busily all day yesterday In making preps.. rations to leave the parsonage. The hall was filled with furniture; carpets were torn np, and three or four young men were engaged In packing tip, preparatory to the mon. It la stated to be the listen- Win of Mrs. Cooke to return M the home of her widowed. mother, 'where she will remain mail Mr. Cooke shows a dieposi. lion to become a more exemplary mem ber of society or recovers from his tem porary fit of Insanity, if math should be the cue. • - Dineen/EOM Or URNTAL ngnartomenicr. For some time previous to the abduc. lion of Miss Johnson, Mrs. Cook had re marked the restless, uneasy, and singu lar conduct of her husband, his nervous. ness, or mental aberration, appearing to increase In the evening. While-sitting quietly talking with Mrs. Cook he would suddenly jump up and rush out the door into the street, only to return and repeat the mime thing, perhaps eight or ten times In the course of a single evening. A ma• jthitj of Cook's old friends state they have no doubt as to his insanity, and hla conduct In this melancholy affair would attenlyseeni to, indicate some distr. -, mrut of his mental faculties. MOUSE TO al;.1. BOX/MOOT. It erpPeare that Cooke informed his wife of the step ho was about to take. At the same time he said he could not explain why he was going to leave. His family received no intelligence of Ms. movements until his sudden and me g. meted return home on Wednesday even- Ws behavior was exoeedingly lent, and was more like that of a crazy than • sane person. According to a statement made by the reporter of as evening paper, he told his wife-that ho was a ruined man ; that ho had been abandoned by his friends, and that milt. ing remained far hien to do but to kill himself. Mrs. Cooke said to him: ' , Though all others forsake you, I will stud by yam. I will ever cling to you. Leave the ministry, and we will com mence life anew." The son threw his arms around his father's neck, and de clared that he, too, would never forsake BELEIMED OD ale PISTOL. Mrs. Cooke's mother, who was present at this time, happened to discover a pis tol in Cooke's overcoat pocket, and ad vised her daughter to keep away from her frantic husband. Mrs. Cooke replied, "Oh, no, he will not Wars me." this point, Mr. Cuter, 11 friend of the family, who was present, advised Cooke to desist from his mad , purpose, and embracing him, took the pistol from his pocket. The man, however, continued to, rare; and exclaimed, “Well, there is no use of farther talking; blood will wipe out this stain."

Beekman street station, on Wednesday night, calls for some attention from the prover authors. ties. As our readers have already been informed, Rev. Horace Cooke, the pastor of the Seventh street Methodist chetah: appeared..on that evening 'ln 27s _World office, and created considerable annoy , ' once there by his violent conduct, die. tubing the peace and order of the estab. lishment, and eventually assaulting ono of the gentlemen attached to thht paper. The clerk in charge of the publication office had the disturber of the peace re moved by an after - and than went to the Beekman etreet station - house to prefer the charge of creating a disturbance against him. Police Sergeant Sanford mated that . lt was necessary that the gentleman aseaulted should appear, refueing to bold the ae.. cueed on the charge of disturbance made against him. While waiting for the and. val of the gentleman assaulted, he made somewhat uncalled-for remarks. It was pointed out to him that it was a strange thing if Violently disposed persons could oe permitted to enter newspaper offices and resent imaginary wrongs by distur bance and personal outrage. To Ude the Sergeant replied: ”Well, now, you newspaper men are rather rough on people at times." "If so," he was answered, "there are legitimate remedies." "Oh, that's the only way to get square with you," replied SargeantElanford. "That la a most extraordinary remark to be made by the conservator of the I peace," retorted one of the gentlemen present. - This observation showing the official his questionable position, induced Mute make "a semi -retraction by, intltnl :raj-ether a private than an official o pin e o• lon he had given utterance to, forgetting that the admiring audience who listen to the words of wisdom dropping from high officiate are not always willing or able to distinguish between those which US Ota • clot and those which are only the private utterances of the not very important pri vate individuaL. ME TIED IN TES MUNCIE LAST NIGHT. - - • A portion of the congregation met in the basement of the church last night. Nearly all the elders and trustees were present.' The session was epened with prayer at 7:30 , o'clock, alter which an animated conversation on the on the abduction of Miss Johnston by Cook, took place. Although the pro. crxdincs were strictly private, enough leaked out to show that the clerical Lothario balsovered his connection with the congregation by his act. It was a remarkable fact that one lady stood up after the exercises and endeavored to de- fend him from the imputations cast upon his character while he was at Mamaroneck. COOKS 118110VKL. PI/OM THE PASTOBATIL At the close of the meeting, our report• er ascertained from one of the prominent members of the congregation that the trustees held a special session on Monday night, at which they formally. expelled Cooke from the church. Charges were presented against him, based on the facts which have been stated in The World. His absence, and that of Miss Johnson, led the officers to take eurnmary, action in the matter. The case is also to be presented to tho next Methodist Annual Conference for its action. REMOVAL PROM TER PARSONAGE. OUP reporter was also Informed by an' elder that Cook had left the parsonage next the church, and is now with a Mend up town. His wife is said to remain In the parsonage, but soma persons assert that-she followed her husband. Inquiry at the house last evening elicited the an• ewer: "Mr. and Mrs. Cook are not at home." TKE PULPIT TO BE PILLED NEXT EI:MOAT. The trustees are . now engaged In the difficult task of selecting a successor to Cook, but It may be some weeks before they succeed. In the meantime, the ser vices will be conducted by some other mlnlster. COOKE'II SZPLASATIOA 01, UlB ISTATO ECM To a reporter of the Times, who visited Cooke during his confinement at the Beekman street elation house, Cooke made the following statement: When I was eighteen years old I was engaged to be married to a girl about my own age.

Before entering the ministry I was an actor; and for siz months was on the stage of the Old Bowery Theatre. Up to the time of coat. tug to New York my life was a happy one, and as pure as befitted a Christian man and a minister of the Gospel I was never unfaithful to my wile in t he tight. eel degree, even In thmaght or deed, and the story in regard to my visiting Owes of bed repute Is. a fabrication, timely fake..
