made to work, and appropriated $8,000
for that purpose. They also instruct
their members of the Legislature to in
troduce a law levying an annual tax of
51 50 upon each dog in the county, the
mouey to be paid to owners of sheep
killed by dogs. Whenever the accumula
tion of this tax shaU go beyond $500,

also recommend that owners of houses of

of the day declaring that the Assembly
is determined to defend Marshal MacMa-
lion’s powers from every attack of his
opponents. The Cabinet has still a ma

scale, are wavering. If the goverment
is defeated the dissolution of the Assem

BED MEN ON A RAID.
Tmnidad, Colobado, July 7.—Bands
of Comanche and Apache Indiana are

east of here, on the Cinnamon. They
have kiUed two Americans named Buthe

taken one Mexican woman prisoner.
They attacked a Mexican train yester
day and fought all day, but were driven
off ultimately. Up to this time they
have stolen four hundred head of horses.
Men and ammunition are being sent for

London, July 8.—The Standard, re
viewing the proposed reciprocity treaty
between the United States and Canada,
says that if adopted it will establish a
separate North American Zolvierein in re

tween the States and the Dominion, ex
cluding England from Canadian markets
like foreign and less favored nations. The
Canada frontier will be virtualy obstructed

Tax on Savings Banks.—Washington,
July 3.—The long fought right of the
United States to collect a tax from sav
ings banks on their surplus was first de
cided by Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue Boffins in favor of the banks. Soon
after Commissioner Douglas’ accession to
office he revived the question, and ruled
that the banks were liable under the law,
and directed the revenue officials to
proceed against and coUect the tax
in future, and to recover the tax before
evaded; A test case was made by
the banks, and the claim rested be
fore the courts until the Supreme
Court decided that Commissioner Doug,
lass was right. The banks then organized
a lobby, and during the recent session of
Congress a bill was passed through the
House to relieve the banks by repealing
the clause construed as imposing the tax.
The bill went to the Senate, and laid
there quietly until near the close of the
session, when Senator Sherman called it
up, and it was passed. The banks have
been quite jubilant over their success,
but Commissioner Douglass learned to
day that the bill failed by what is known
as a pocket veto, the President having
withheld his signature to the bill, and
Congress having adjourned in less than
ten days from its passage. The tax will
therefore be collected till Congress takes
further action.—Chicago TrUmne.
Tb* Modoo Indians.—A letter from
Endsley Jones, published in the Elmira

Indian Territory, gives some interesting
particulars concerning the Modocs. The
writer says:
“The Modocs have had better health
during the past winter than I anticipated.
But five deaths have occurred since they
came here. The conduct of the tribe is,
and has been, as good as we could expect
or ask. All seem willing and amdous to
do as near as they can as we wish them
to. Too much praise cannot be accorded
to Bogus Charlie for his evident desire to
improve and learn the ways of good men.

A gentleman from Bedford, Va., lfi- 1
forms the Lynchburg Hews that a young
man named Thomas Johnson, aged about
fifteen years, was killed by lightning near
Fancy Grove, in that county, last Mon
day. He had been doing some farm work
with a horse, and his sister, who was
with him, insisted that as a thunder
storm was coming on he had better retire
to the house. This he declined to do,
saying that they would take refuge under
a large beach tree near by, and remarked
that he had never known a beach tree
struck by lightning. Scarcely had they
reached the tree when it was struck and
riven from the top to the ground, and
Johnson and the horse almost instantly
killed. Miss Johnson was also knocked
down and badly stunned, but is recover
ing. Her statement is that her brother
when he fell called to her to raise him up,
which she attempted to do, when he
instantly expired.
The staff of General Sherman includes
six officers, namely: General Whipple
and Colonels Bacon, Audenreid, Tourte-
lotte, McCoy and Poe. It is not certain
the two last named will accompany the
General to St Louis. The Pope property
in that city has been engaged as the head
quarters.
[From the Terre Haute Express.]
ROMANCE AND TRAGEDY.
How a. Terre Haute Barber Became Pres
ident of and the Richest Man in Liberia.
Many of our older residents, say of
twenty years ago, will remember an en
terprising and very industrious barber,
whose name was Edward J. Boye. How
long he lived in Terre Haute the writer
does not know; with his career in Africa
and elsewhere I am familiar. In making
his first trip to Africa he took bis
goods out on freight, he himself being a
passenger. The entire value of his in
voice was not more than $3,000. His
keen foresight soon proved to him that
the merchants of Western Africa. seldom
if ever exhibited any of the article called
politeness. Fortunately for him he was
always well supplied with it; and to this
day people tell abont spending money
with him for things they had little or no
use for. Although he was taken down
with the acclimating fever which every
foreign constitution must pass through,
he had but little trouble from that source.
He often told me he had no time to
bother with fevers. In less than eighteen
months from the time he sailed from New
York, he was back with $6,000 worth of
oil, dye-wood, ivory, and gold-
dust. Spending bat little time in
shaking hands and telling stories, he
chartered half a brig in company with a
white man, and about the time Ms friends
in Africa looked for a letter from him, he
anchored his brig in the Bay of Monro
via, laden with a good cargo, wMch was
at this moment salable at Ms own rates.
TMs was the beginning of the career in
Africa of the most remarkable man in
many respects the little black republic
ever had within her borders. Following
the tidal wave of Ms good luck, he put off
to England in the montMv steamer,
where he purchasedEnglish goods, wMch,
in many instances, are manufactured ex
pressly to suit the African market—goods
of peculiar make-up and color, known
only to merchants dealing with Africa.
The point Boye made in that move was
this: he could go anywhere where the
English held the trade and furnish both
kinds of goods—English and American—
something no other American ever did.
Crossing from England to America, he
made the acquaintance of the great house
of Phelps, Dodge & Co., New York city,
with whom he deposited a sum of money
and by whom he was introduced among
first-class merchants, wMch resulted in
Ms purchasing a vessel and loading her
for Liberia, leaving behind him a reputa
tion and money enough to load a vessel
in Ms absence.
The isolated colomsts of Liberia had
not been accustomed to see a colored
man thus march up to the ladder of suc
cess, therefore all eyes were turned to
ward him; many with jealousy and some
with hatred.
The poorer class, who hod been often
deceived in the election of government
officials, broke loose from both the old
parties and elected this new, and now
that wealth lay in his path and honors on
bare shoulders, upon Mm, the idea oc
curred to him to get married. At the
house of ex-Govemor Hicks, where he
often dined—was the most adopted
daughter of the Governor, the pretty
brown-faced Hannah, without kith or kin
in the world. So in Ms bnsiness-like
manner he courted her three weeks and
married her. This, too, was another
wise Mt, for Hannah was horn in Liberia
and could speak five or six of the native
languages, wMch is half of the battle in
trading. Leaving Ms wife to manage
home affairs, he bought an English vessel
and cargo out and out, made his first trip
to the gold coast, where the Ashantee
war has just been fought. TMs was an
other twenty thousand stroke in less than
thirty-four months. Returning, he
landed at home in Monrovia, and sent
vessel and cargo to England for sale, and
both sold well.
J. J. Roberts, the first President, and
now the sixth one, has been a life-long
enemy of Boye, and the feeling was en
tirely mutual between them. Boye was
three times nominated and defeated for
the Presidency, before he succeeded in
taking the chair. He was also Senator
and CMef Justice of the Republic. In
these positions the worst enemies could
find no fault. An examination of his
record as CMef Justice will show that he
knew how to do sometMng else beside
money-maMng and money-keeping. His
plan of laying a railroad to the interior,
in order that the vast productions of that
region, much of wMch now goes to waste,
might be used for the benefit of the peo
ple, was and is now the leading want of
the Republic. But there are fogies and
sore-heads in Liberia who would sink the
whole traffic rather than see men who
came there later than themselves rise in
in the estimation of the people.
Boye was elected President in 1868,
the term at that time being two years.
His party, being strongly in the ascend
ancy, thought they could enact a law by
wMch he could hold Ms seat without an
election, they believing that 120 honest
voters could be obtained before the peo
ple, most of whom cannot read or write,
for signMg that act. Both he and all the
heads of departments were imprisoned
for usurpation; he remaining several
weeks in jail, made his escape, and in at
tempting to get to a British steamer, then
lying in the Bay of Monrovia, he was
drowned. The body was recovered and
delivered to Ms family and friends, and
decently bimed under the waving palm
trees in his lot in Evergreen Cemetery.
The government confiscated some of Ms
property, and did many little, things
common in all places under great exoite-
ment.
Boye was the wealtMest man in Li
beria, and Ms family will not want un
less they become extraordinarily extrava
gant. Thus ended the life of a black
man that proved, at least, that a negro
can make money and keep it; that he
can aspire to office and get it, and become
too ambitious-like, as other men.
An Enoounteb in a Squibe’s Office.—
The Pittsburg Dispatch of the 1st instant
relates the following: “The case of
Joseph Lofink, Sr., and Joseph Lofink,
Jr., charged with selling liquor on Sun
day, before Alderman Kelly, of Allegheny,
were heard yesterday. The result of the
hearing was that Mr. Lofink, Sr., was
held to bail for Court. A large crowd of
sympathizers with the parties accused
was in attendance, many of wMch are re
ported to have behaved in a very in
decorous manner, cursing and swearing
and imprecating the prosecutor. The
latter appealed to the Alderman to exer
cise his magisterial authority, when the
latter began taking dowp the names of
the offenders. This was the signal for an
attack on Sqnire Boss, and one Mike
Kurtz struck at Mm and then caught him
by the hair. The Alderman coming for
ward, Mr. Boss caught him and polled
Tiini between himself and his assailant,
and then retired to a comer of the office.
The man still retained Ms hold upon the
squire’s hair, and to free himself Mr.
Ross struck Mm a well-directed blow,
taking effect under the ear and then
kicked Mm to to® groin, wMch caused
Mm to relinquish his grasp. Another of
the crowd then struck Mr. Boss with a
chair, and still another threw an inkstand
at him, when, procuring a broomstick, he
beat off Hie gang and went out upon the
street. Then, to company with the con
stable, who was armed with a revolver, he
started down street, the mob hooting and
throwing stones after him. The only in
jury received by Mr. Boss was a slight
abrasion on the head; he, however, lost
Ms hat to the melee.”
THE ST. LOUIS BRIDGE.
The Formal Opening of the Great Bridge—
The City Thronged with Sight-Seers.
St. Louis, July 4.
The formal opening of the Illinois and
St. Louis bridge was celebrated to-day
with great pomp and with more showy
and finer display than ever before witness
ed in this city. By seven o’clock this
morning all the main thoroughfares of the
city were crowded with citizens and
strangers wending their way to catch a
view of the procession and examine the
elaborate decorations along the line of
march. The procession was divided into
sixteen divisions and abont twelve miles
long, started from Twenty-second street
and Washington avenne at half-past nine
o’clock, and contained to its ranks nearly
all the military and civic societies and
representatives in wagons of almost every
trade, business and industry in the city.
This latter part of the line was without
precedent to length and elaborateness of
display. The procession was five solid
hours in passing the speakers’ stand at
the western entrance of the bridge, and
all of it passed over that structure and
countermarched on the opposite side of
the river. Hundreds of thousands of peo
ple thronged the streets, filled the houses
and stores and. crowded the balcomes and
roofs along the line of march. The
crowd cannot be estimated to numbers,
and no such throng was ever gathered in
the city before.
When the head of. the procession
reached the bridge it halted, and General
S. Allen, President of the Bridge Com
pany. from a beautifully decorated stand,
introduced Mrs. Julius L. Walsh, daugh
ter of Charles K. Dickson, first President
of the Bridge Company, who, after
brief speech, christened the bridge by
pouring upon it water from the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans, lake Mictogan and
the Gulf of Mexico, sent from Boston,
San Francisco, Chicago and New Orleans
by the postmasters to those cities for the
occasion. While the procession was to
motion a train of fourteen Pullman
coaches, drawn by three locomotives,
laden with two thousand prominent gen
tlemen and ladies from home and abroad,
passed over the bridge through the entire
tunnel, and emerged near the site of the
Grand UMon depot in process of con-_
struction on the line of lhe Atlantic and
Pacific Railroad. About one o'clock
the invited guests from abroad, and
several hundred leading citizens seated
on an elevated platform erected nnder
a huge tent at the west end of
the bridge, was called to order and
Mayor Brown delivered a brief welcoming
address, wMch was followed by congratu.
latory speeehees by Governor Beveridge,
of Illinois, and Governor Woodson, of
Missouri. These were followed by ad
dresses by Ex-Senator B. Gratz Brown
and Captain Jas. B. Eads, cMef engineer
of the bridge company. These ceremo
nies being over, impromptu speeches
were made by Governor Hendricks, of
Indiana, and Urnted States Senator
Ferry, of HicMgan. All of the speeches
were unusually eloquent, and referred in
glowing terms of praise to Captain Eads,
his able assistants, and all of the genUe-
men whose energy, perseverance and
wealth have contributed toward the great
enterprise and crowning trinmph. The
greatest enthusiasm prevailed, and most
hearty cheers were repeatedly given in
response to the eloquent remarks of the
speakers. Among other distinguished
persons present were Major Generals
Hancock and Pope, General Grierson,
General Carr, and a number of Congress
men from Missouri and Illinois.
THE NIGHT DISPLAY.
The pyxotechMe display on the bridge
to-night came off according to the pro
gramme, and some parte of it were very
fine, but as a whole it did not satisfy ex
pectations, and much unfavorable com
ment was made. An immense mass of
people crowded the levee near the bridge
for a distance of over a dozen blocks
down the river, and the opposite shore
was lined with humanity. There were
also between forty and fifty steamers,
tugs, fenyboate, barges, etc., anchored
out in the stream, upon wMch fully thirty
thousand people witnessed the spectacle.
Over one hundred newspaper men are
here, from nearly all the Western States,
and some from Pennsylvania, New York,
and Massachusetts. They have been
shown every attenHon by the press com
mittee appointed for that purpose, and
will to-morrow be taken on an excursion
in the harbor, and'given a carriage-ride
around the city.
The example of James Lick is catching;
Henry Shaw now proposes to deed to St.
Louis Ms magnificent botanical garden,
long the pride of the city.
. ^
Cuba.—A Havana letter of recent date
says that the misery and want existing in
that city are great, and as a consequence
crime has increased to a fearful extent,
the columns of papers being daily filled
with accounts of assaults and robberies.
The jail is literally paeked with crimi
nals, and it is reported that the Governor
General has ordered a part of the Isle of
Pines to be converted into a correctional
or penal colony fer the traitors, vagrants
and tocorrigibles, and that a military
colony be established there. Several se
vere skirmishes have of late taken place
to Concordia.
Grasshoppers—What These Pests Are
Doing in Southwestern Minnesota.
St. Paul, Minn., July 3.—Lost rnght’s
mail brought the following addirional
news from the grasshopper district:
Madelia, Minn., July 2, 1874.
To the Editor of the St. Paul Press:
It is pretty well understood that the
grasshoppers in this immediate vicinity
will nearly, if not entirely, ruin the entire
crop for this season. In fact and truth,
uiue-tentbs of all the grain in this county
is now enrirely destroyed by these pests,
and a thousand different optoions are
given as to their migrarion. Many seem
to think that it is not in the natnre of
things that they should continue for
auother year. Others claim that there is
a prospect of everything in the shape of
vegetation being destroyed during the
coming season, but none seem to have a
theory at all satisfactory to the com-
munity.
People who were in good circumstan
ces last week are now confronted with
starvation, as wheat-raising, to almost
every instance, makes up the whole means
of their support; and that being entirely
destroyed, their all is gone, and nothing
left—credit, confidence, and good faith
to the future, with their heretofore heroic
courage and ambition are all gone. By
one whirlpool of destrucHon they are
left on a deserted and at present a barren
soil, with nothing bat the wants of large
and dependent families to console them,
and yet many of them seem to imagine
that they can endure this great loss for
another year; but others cannot, and
ought to receive prompt attenHon. At
this writing, July 2d, at noon, the sky is
really darkened with the myriads of these
pests now passing over the village to the
north, and in case they leave immediate
ly, Madelia may be able to save sufficient
for bread and seed. All the counties in
this State, south and east of ns, have
been completely ravaged, there is now
no room to doubt; and it seems that the
State government ought soon to take ac
tion in this important matter.

“NoMobb Ducks—No Moke Injun.”
—Over at Washoe City, the other day,
some men stopping at the principal hotel,
while viewing the surroundings of the
place, saw a large flock of ducks settle
down on the further side of Washoe
Lake. A Washoe Indian also saw the
ducks, and told the men that he would go
after them if they would get him a gun..
In the hotel they found an old United
States musket. This they loaded nearly
to the muzzle, and giving it to the In
dian, started him for the lake. After he
had gone the wags who loaded the gun
for him went to the upper story of the
house, and with opera glasses watched
the progress of the noble red man. He
at last reached the spot where the ducks
had been seen to setUe down among the
tales. PresenUy they saw the smoke
dart from the Indian’s gun, saw him fall
backward to the ground, and heard a
tremendous roar come over the lake—a
sound as though the gun had burst into a
thousand pieces. Fearing that the gun
had indeed burst and killed the poor
devil, the jokists began to feel very guilty.
They hastened from the house and struck
out around the lake. When they had got
about half way around they met their
Indian coming toward them. There was
a long gosh across Ms right cheek bone,
and his face was covered with blood, but
he had as many ducks ns he could hold in
both hands. ‘ f Well, Jim,” said they,
how did you make it ? ” H Yes,” said
Jim, “one moro shoot qm—no moie
ducks, no more Injun! ’’
Democratic Anticipations.
The following letter from Hie recenfly
elected 'United States Senator from Con
necticut to a citizen of Texas appears in
the Dallas (Texas) Herald of June 26.
There is obviously an error to the date:
Haetfobd, Conn, June 28, 1874.
My Deab Sib: You place me under ob-
ligntions for your kind note of the 31st
of May. Yon may be assured that I feel
a deep interest to the welfare of the
abased people of your secHon of our com
mon country, and no effort of mine will
be wanting to place yon to the position
belonging to yon as a matter of consdtu-
tional right. Of all the thousand and
one things wMch will meet yon
to your coming canvass, I of
course know nothing, and, therefore,
could not speak; but generally I can
say, what would only be patent to
every thinking, reflecting man, that your
duty would be to harmonize all conflict
ing opinions, presenting thus a firm, ser
ried front to the common adversary.
Place in nomtoarion for your various of
fices, especially naHonal offices, only men
of prudence andcauHon, at the same time
bold, firm and outspoken. The near
future—the coming four years—will
measurably determine the condirion of the
South, and she should have to all public
posjtjonij. Aopeniallv in Congress, her best,
her truest boldest, and 'most sagacious
men. The State Bights men of the
North see and feel profoundly your true
situation. I believe the Republicans of my
secrion are becoming alarmed at the rapid
strides that centializarion has made to the
past ten years, and hence the victory in
my own State, lo be followed, I trust, in
New York, in November. Should we suc
ceed inNew York in the fall, I shall regard
the Presidential elecHonof 1876 as half won
to our hands. I am not a sanguine man
and I am fully aware of the vast corrupt
ing power that it is arrayed against the
Democratic party, yet I do nor permit
myself to fear the result. There are ten
Southern States wMch will be certain for
the Democratic candidate to 1876. The
granger fend to the West must be favor
able to us, and the very large Western
German vote, heretofore almost solid
Republican, will, I am quite certain,
be to the future nearly solid with
ns. Now, this is my opinion of
the ouHook at the present moment.
Texas we regard, of course, as one of the
certain States. You will be soon the
empire State of the South; therefore see
to it that all your power is given to
proper men, who in the future will place
the desHmes of your State with the State
rights men of the North, and all shall be
well; we will stand by you “shoulder to
shoulder,” and meet the foe manfully.
It will give me great pleasure to hear
from you at any time relating to your
political matters, as I shall take earnest
interest in all that relates to you in Texas.
I intend, if my life and health are spared,
to visit your State within the coming two
years.
In great haste, very sincerely, Ac.
William W. Eaton.
A Startled Bridegroom.
Not many weeks ago a wealthy and
middle-aged bachelor of San Francisco
espoused one of the fairest daughters of
that city, and the wedding was celebrated
in one of the most fasMonable churches
of the city. The bridegroom was a forty-
niner, and he had once been anything but
a sober and industrious citizen. There
had been even rumors to the effect that
when he made the overland journey he
left behind Mm in “the States” a wife
and two children, and these rumors were
awkwardly revived when his recent mar
riage was first announced. But nothing
came of the gossip. The forty-niner was
now undeniably rich and respectable, and
people were generally disposed to pass
over Ms antecedents without subjecting
them to a scrutiny that might prove disa
greeable. And so the wedding day ar
rived.
When the forty-niner 'and Ms bride
turned from their places in front of the
altar, after the clergyman had pronounced
them man and wife, the spectators were
astonished to see a tall, dismal-looking,
and sable-habited man rise from a place
to the front pews, approach the bride
groom, and genHy tap him on the shoul
der. The effect of this proceeding on the
forty-niner was rather singular, for Ms
countenance assumed a ghasUy expres
sion and he quickly resigned Ms newly,
made wife to her friends, and then
turned anxiously to the stranger,
who simply remarked, “I wish to talk
with you a moment privately, si
The forty-niner struggled hard to
conceal Ms emotion, and finally said,
T assure you, sir, that—that—what to
thunder did you come at such a time as
this for?” “A moment will suffice,” re
plied the funeral-looking genUeman, very
firmly; “please step into this pew.” The
forty-niner did so, while the assembled
company busied itself in winking and
looking alternately at the fainting bride
and the agonized bridegroom. “When a
man gets married, sir,” said this dismal
genUeman, “it is necessaiy for Mm to
look with prudence upon the future, and
he cannot begin too soon. Now, sir, a
lot to the Oakdale Cemetery, wMch asso
ciation I repre—”
The sentence was never finished. There
was a chorus of female shrieks and a gen
eral gush of genUemen, as the forty-
niner was suddenly observed to seize Ms
interviewer by the collar and kick him
into the aisle. The enterprising ceme
tery agent was quickly disposed of, the
trembling bride regained her color and
composure, and thereafter all went merry
as a marriage bell.
The Catebptllab.—The cotton pest
has been found in the Northern part of
this (Leon) county, specimens of wMch
were sent into the city on Thursday last.
Of coarse they have not yet appeared in
sufficient numbers to cause alarm, but
their appearance at all to the smallest
numbers may indicate the coming of
myriads and the general destruction of
the cotton crop. Last year the first
worms were seen on the 24th of May, bnt
cotton was then veiy much earlier than
now, and by the middle of Jnly the crop
was eaten out ou some plantations and
seriously injured on all. We suggi
that where worms are found, no matter
how few to number, the immediate use
of Paris Green on on acre or two in that
very vicinity. It is no use to urge that
the poison will do no good, for the ex
perience of those who have given it a
thorough test is that it win destroy the
caterpillar. The trouble a year ago was
that it was uot applied trnril the worms
became so numerous that they could not
be managed, without more patient per
severance than the average farmer pos
ses. Had the applicaHon been on the
first appearance of the caterpiller, the re
sult might have been very different. And
now, wherever the worm is seen, is the
time to give the matter a good test. A
few pohnds of the poison applied in time
may save the crop, while neglect may in
volve its destrucHon. “An ounce of pre
vention is better than a pound of cure.”
Don’t put it off until it is too late.—Talla
hassee Floridian, 7th.
Whips His Wife fob
Breaking the Sabbath.—The Presby
tery of Chesapeake met in Baltimore
Wednesday to try the. case of the Bev.
H. E. C. Baskerville, of Laurel, charged
with whipping his wife. The specifica
tions are, that one Sunday a short time
since the reverend genHeman, who is the
provider for the household, having failed
to procure anything for breakfast except
bread and butter, was surprised to find
some eggs on the table, and being in
formed by Ms wife, in response to an
inquiry, that she had borrowed them
from a neighbor, told her he wonld
“teach her how to break the Sabbath,”
and did so by slapping her jaws—one of
the slaps striking her on the eye and
“blacking” that orb into wMch he had
so often fondly gazed.—Alexandria Ga
zette.
The disastrous drouth still continues
through all of the western ‘counHes to

Did Beecher Offer Tilton Money?—
Letter from F. B. Carpenter.
To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle :
I do not disavow, and have not intended
to disavow, the statement attributed to
me by Mr. Tilton to his letter to Rev.
Dr. Bacon concerning Mr. Tilton’s going
to Europe. I am satisfied now that I
gave a wrong impression .to the repre
sentative of the Eagle, and through Mm
to the public, concerning the matter as
published to the Eagle of last Saturday.
All the facte to the case—a part only of
the facts coming up to my conversarion
with the reporter—warranted the full
force of Mr. Tiltqn’s statement. The in
terview referred to between Mr. Beecher
and myself took place on the 19th of
April. The matter of the increase of the
capital of the Golden Age and Mr. Til- .
ton’s going to Europe was not the occa
sion of that interview, as I stated to the
reporter, but was an incident thereof.
Mr. Beecher did not couple the state
ment, “If Mr. Tilton would go to Europe
the means would be provided,” at that
time with any conditions, but he re
quested me before taking any steps to the
matter to see Mr. H. M. Cleveland. I
saw Mr. Cleveland the following Thurs
day, and told him what Mr. Beecher had
said. He made an appointment to see
me the next day at Ms office to New York.
I went to see Mr. Cleveland next day,
according to appointment, and he then
told me 'that the money could be had only
on condition that Mr. Tilton would go to
Europe with Ms family, and would bind
himself to stay there two years. He said
prftems.
SECOND AND LA.ST
Grand Grift Concert
IN AID OF THE
MASONIC RELIEF
ASSOCIATION
OF
VA.
NORFOLK,
Thursday, Sept. 3, 1874.
M* Tilton must also make a public dis
avowal of sympathy with Mrs. Wood-
hull’s views. I instantly declined all fur
ther negotiations ou the subject.
I saw, about the same time, of my own
motion, Mr. James Freeland, of Plymouth
Church, an old friend of mine and Mr.
Tilton’s. I asked him if Mr. Tilton had
any friends in that church to whom I
could appeal. Mr. Freeland said he could
not name one. Mr. Tilton knew nothing
of tMs action on my part. It had never
been to any manner authorized by him.
I was solely responsible for it. Some
days later, to a moment of discourage
ment, I imprudently revealed to Mm
what I had done. He resented the action
on my part. I did not know, however,
that he subsequently wrote to Mr. Beecher
upon the subject till sometime after
wards, and I did not see the letter until it
was embodied in the letter to Dr. Bacon.
Mr. Tilton told me that he sent the
letter referring to me to Mr. Beecher, by
messenger, May 1, the day it was written.
My relations with Mr. Beecher warranted
Ms notifying me of any wrong done to
him in the representation of Mr. Tilton;
but I never heard from Mr. Beecher or
Mr. Cleveland on the subject. These are
the facts in the matter, the publicity of
wMoh I should regret, as it was a private
matter of my own, had it not afforded
Mr. Tilton an opportunity to forever set
at rest the notorious and disgraceful
charges that he had “blackmailed” Mr.
Beecher.
One word more. In an editorial allu
sion in the Eagle on Monday, you honored
me by calling me “Mr. Tilton’s friend.”
I accept the honor, for the friendsMp of
sunshine and not also of shadow is no
friendsMp for me.
I believe’ with Mr. Beecher that Mr.
Tilton “would have been a better man in
my circumstances than I have been.
That he has been a suffering man I know,
for I have walked the streets of New York
with Mm repeatedly, Mght after Mght,
when his head was bowed and his heart
nearly crushed with sorrow. Neverthe
less I would not sMeld him from the con
sequences of Ms own acts. He has made
grove mistakes in life. Wendell Phillips
said of Mm not long since that four years
ago no young man had so brilliant a
future before him as Theodore Tilton,
“and to-day,” Mr. Phillips continued,
“he stands amid the ashes of his hopes
and his prospects.”
I know what it cost him to write Ms
letter to Dr. Bacon. It is easy to censure
and sting with bitter words. I know
that no spirit of malice or vindictiveness
actuated tMs man, from whose lips to an
intimate relationship of twenty years I
never heard a coarse word or jest, and in
whose life I never knew an unmanly or
wicked act. Respectfully yours,
F. B. Cabpenteb.

Blown ro Atoms.—The terrible effects
of the explosion of six cans of nitro
glycerine, (150 pounds) near Parker’s
Landing, Penn., by wMch a young man
named John Osborne was blown to atoms,
are thus described: “Osborne started from
Emlenton for Petrolia, where he was to
fill several orders. When he reached
Parker it was too dark to proceed further
with any degree of safety, and he was
persuaded by a relative to remain over
Mght. He was called early in the morn
ing, and, obtaining a horse and buck-
board, started from Parker over' the
roughtest road that was possible, although
it is conjectured he went that way to
make time, os it is the nearest route. He
had crossed Bear Creek and was over a
hundred feet up the south slope of the
hill when the explosion occurred.
Osborne’s body was horribly mangled.
The head and body, from above
the Mps, and portions of the arms
were thrown over three hundred feet
from the scene. Entrails, parte of
clothing and debris could be seen hanging
to the the tops of trees,-though they were
over one hundred feet togh. The head
and portions of the stomach were found
in Bear Creek, over one hundred feet dis
tant. The right hand was found nearly a
half mile away, and in a radius of a mile
numerous other portions were found, but
it would be utterly impossible to distin
guish them from portions of the horse,
whose body was scattered to all directions
by the terrific concussion. The. shoes
were torn from the home’s feet, wMch
may be termed the most singular incident
of the dreadful disaster. The seat of the
buck-board, and parts of the structure,
were found scattered over hill and ravines
and could not be distinguished except by
a previous knowledge of what it was.
The trees were stripped of the foliage for
rods around, many of them being barked.
The excavation in the road caused by the
explosion was four or five feet deep, and
most of it was from solid rock.
The Abbeville (S. C.) Medium
Extravagant tales of the great gold de
posits on Long Cane constantly reach our
ears. Last week ninety-six pounds of
gold-bearing rock from- the Carroll Place
of Major W. K. Bradley yielded two
tahlespoonfols of gold. Such a yield is
almost fabulous, but good men vouch for
its truth.
It is the intention of the President to
return to. Washington every two or three
weeks to transact such business as may
require Ms presence there.
