Murviu’s description of the uuiverac, its creation and tnaguifloeut grandeur, am well as bis beautiful picture of the heavenly world, were among the most eloquent and sublime utterances that ever fell upon human oars. In fact, the whole sermon was pregnant with eelestial fire, and ever and anon the deep emotions of the hear ers’ hearts would burst forth iu tender expressions of response to the speakers beautiful and holy sentiments of rever- enco and love for the Great Greater of tlio universe, while hundreds of weeping eyes attested the powor of his appeals to the finer sensibilities of our nature. But it would be impossible to report even the outlines of such a scholarly dis course; and if we could give a full synop sis, it would be but a tame effort to re produce by the pen that whioh a tongue of sublime eloquence made to thrill every heart within its hearing. We do not re member that in oar entire life w§ ever listoned to a sormon with whioh we wore better pleased. And the fact that learned Doctors of Divinity and Doctors of Law, hoary with age and ripe with experience, acknowledged its power by their tears of sympathy nud smiles of approval, leads us to believe it was universally consid ered n masterly effort to show forth the glory of God iu His oreative works, and the exalted character of mau in the grand destiuy to whioh he is born and the noble attributes with whioh he is endowed. Ou Snudny afternoon, at 4 o’clock, the vonerablo Dr. Lovick Pierce, as has been | his custom for the past thirty years—with was BEECHER-TILTON SCANDAL.

They Kill Twenty-One Persona, mid Capture Four Hundred Horses. St. Louis, July 23.— Advices from El liito creek, New Mexico, to July 17th, says that twenty-one persons, six Ameri cans and fifteen Mexicans, have been killed by the Indians between Fort Bas- com and the Boton Mountains up to the present time, and that four hundred horses have been driven off. A company of the Eighth Cavalry left Fort Union on the 17th inst. for the Dry Cinnamon river, tbo scene of tho late Indian outrages. Indian Raids In Texas. Galveston, July 21.—A News' Austin special says: Late intelligence received by Adjutant General Steele from the In- New Yobk, July 23.— Beeoher has made preliminary statement in reply to Tilton, denying in toto the charges of the latter, and warmly defending Mrs. Tilton from the accusations of her husband—for whom, he says, be cherishes a pure feel ing, suoh as a gentleman might honorably offer to a Christian woman, and which she might receive and reciprocal without moral scruple. He rejects with indignation every impu tation whioh reflects upon her honor or his own. j Beecher critically examines Tilton’s ohargos, And recognises the reason which made it of transcendent importance to himself, the church, and the causo of publio morality, that u full answer shall be given to them ; and ho looks to the Committee of Investigation to search tho matter to the bottom and vindicate him. He concludes : “I do not propose to analyze and contest at this time the ex traordinary papor of Mr. Tilton, but there are two allegations whioh I can not permit to pass without special notice. They refer to the only two incidents which Mr. Tilton pretends to have witnessed personally—the one, an alleged scene in my liuuse while looking over engravings ; the other, a chamber scene in his own house. His statements concerning these are absolutely false. Nothing of the kind ever occurred, nor any semblance of any suoh things. Thoy are now brought to my notice for the first time. “To every statement whioh connects 9 dishonorably with Mrs. Elizabeth B. Tilton, or which in any wise would im- pugu the honor and purity of this beloved Christian woman, I give the most explicit, comprehensive and solemn denial. ” The Scenes Tilton Personally Wit nessed. To explain tho above wo copy the fol lowing from Tilton’s accusations: Seventh—“Mr. Tilton's first suspicion that Beecher was abusing the affection preference which Mrs. Tilton boro him, was an impropor caress given by Mr. Beecher to Mrs. Tilton, while seated on the floor of his library overlooking tho engravings. Tilton asked an expla nation of his wife. She first denied tho act and thon confessed it, and said she had chided Beeoher concerning it. On auotber occasion, Tilton, after leaving his house in the morning, returned and found his bed ohsmber door looked, and on knocking it was opened by Mrs. Tilton. Beecher was seen within rnnch confused and exhibiting a flushed face. Mrs. Tilton’s explanation was deemed satisfactory by her husband.” Mr*. Tilton and Beecher Preparing Fuller Statements. Tho statement of Mrs. Tilton will be made public, and it is understood that it will bo a complete douial of the charges made against Beechor and herself by her husband. Beeoher will prepare a more full and conoiso reply to bo submitted to the Investigation Gjmaiittee at as early a date as possible. roaches well nigh to sacrilege ; and adds d to this, tho endeavor, like the early scan dal of Mrs. Woodhull, to mnko my own words condemu mo, has no parallel— most conspicuously my letter, quoting tho readiug of Griffith Gaunt. Had Mr. Tilton read tho pure character of Cath erine, he would havo seen that I lifted myself beside ns near as any human being may effcot an ideul, but it was ber char acter, and not the incidents of fiotion sucoooding it, to which I referred. Hers was not a sin of criminal aot or thought. A like confession with hers, I had made to Mr. Tilton, iu telling of my love to my friend and pastor one year before, and I now add that, notwithstanding all mis representation and anguish of some, I owe to my acquaintance and friendship with Mr. Boeohor, as to no other human instrumentality, that encouragement in mental life, and that growth towards the Divine natnre, which enabled me to walk daily in lively hope of the life beyond. The shameless ohargos in artioles seven, eight, and nine, are fearfully false in each and every particular. Tho letter referrod to in Mr. Tilton’s tenth paragraph was obtained from me by importunity, and by misrepresenta tions that it was necessary for him to use it in the then pending difficulties with Mr. Bowen. I was then sick, nigh unto death. I signed whatever he required, without. knowing or understanding its import. This paper I havo never seen, and I do nut know what statements it contained. In charge 18, a letter of mino address ed to Mr. Francis Moulton, is quoted to prove that I never desired a separation, or was advised by Mr. and Mrs. Beeoher to leave my husband. I reply, the letter was of Mr. Tilton’s own coucooting, which be induced me to copy and sign as my own, an aot which in my BioknesB and mistake he thought to help him. This I havo dono too often daring these unhappy cases. The implication that the harmony of the honsebold was nnbroken till Beeoher entered it os a frequent guest and friend, is a lamentable satire upon the household, where ho hiuisnlf, years before, laid the corner-stone of Free Love and desecrated it up to the time of my departure ; ao that tho atmosphere was not only godless but impure fur my children ; and in this FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. ■PAIN.

END LAND. e Dinner te the Mlnftatry-DleraelPe Speech-England the Arbi ter or Pence. London, July 23.—The Lord Mayor gave a banquet to-night to her majesty's ministers at the Mansion House. Disraeli, answering to the toast “To the Ministry,” said, no one was allowed to view the State of Europe with compla- oency. Every one must deplore the anarchical condition of some of the more favored ooantriee. The friendship of England was never more sought for by the leading powers of Europe and America. England would exercise her influence in the intorest of peace. Disraeli repudiated the principle that the oountry was not to be held responsi ble in the many questions which might arise abroad.

TILTON*£ STATEMENT. Nile Gives ITIlton Hot Kliot-De clarcN Him n Tyrant, Free Lov er, Heart less, Sol fish ami False—Quote* from Grif fith Gaunt—Declare* Tilton** Every Charge Fnl se ller Obliga tions to Beecher. natred of Mrs. Beecher the Cause of His Action—Affirms Before God Her Own and Beecher** Innocence. New 1’okk, July 23.—Mrs. Tiltou’s statement is published. She begins with the expression that the imperative^pces- sity which is forced upon hor to pick anew tho pains and sorrows sire had for tho lA8t ton years daily schooled herself to bury aud forget, is the saddest act of hor life. A sense of the perversion of her lifo and faith almost compels her now to stand aside until God Himself delivers; yet, sho sees in the wanton attnek of her husbaud an urgent call and privilege from which she shrinks not. To reply in detail to tho twenty-two articles of arraignment, she will not at tempt at present, but if called upon to testify to each nnd all of them, she would not hesitate to do so. Sho solemnly avers that long before the Woodhull publication she knew, by insin uation and direct statements, ber hus band to have repeated to her very near relatives and friends the substance of the accusations which shock the moral sense of tho entire community of this city. Muny times, she says, when hearing thut certain persons had spoken ill of him, she has Bent tue to chide them for so doing, and then nud there I learned he had been beforo me with his oalnmnies against my self, ao that I was speechless. The reite- rution in his statements that ho had per sistently strivon to hide theso so-called faots is utterly false, as his hatred of Mrs. Beecher has existed these mauy years, and the determination to ruin Mr. Beeoh er has been the one aim of his life. Again, the ~perfidity with which the holiest love a wife ever offered bas been rsokliialy discovered in this publication have left my daughters and all woman hood from tho insidious and diabolical teachings of those latter days. His frequent efforts to prove me in sane and of weak mind, iusignifloant and moan presence, all rank in the oategory of heartlesunosB, selfish ness and false hood, having its climax in his present endeavor to convince the world that I am or evor have been unable to distinguish between an innocent and a guilty love. Iu summing up the whole matter, Mrs. T. says: “I affirm myself before God to bo innocent of the crime laid upon me ; that n^ver havo I been guilty of adultory with Henry Ward Beecher, in thought or deed, nor has he ever offered to me an indecorous or improper proposal.” “To the further charge—that I was led away from my home by Mr. Beecher’s friends, and by the advice of a lawyer whom Mr. Beeolror had sent to mo, and who, in advance of my appearing beforo tho committee, arranged with me the questions and answers which are to con stitute my testimony on Mr. Beecher’s be half—I answer that this is again untrue, having never seen the lawyer uutil intro duced to him a few moments beforo the arrival of tho committee by my step father, Judge Morse.” 8ke says she saw, w*ell nigh with blind ing eyes, thut Tilton had put into execu tion the almost daily threat of his life— that he lived to orush oat Mr. Beechor; that the god of battles was in him ; that he had alwAya been Mr. B.’s superior, and nil that lay in his path—wife, children or reputation, if need bo—should fall before this purpose. Tlie New York Teiuporance Repub licans. Syracuse, N. Y., July 23.—Addresses of the Executive Committee of the Tem perance Republicans, of New York, will issued to-morrow.

FRANCE. MncMnhon*e Demand on tho Assem bly-lie Mays He Envers n Republic. Paris, July 23.—President MacMahoit, in response to a deputation of the mem bars of the Assembly who waited upon him to-day, said ho was not summoned to power in order to restore either Mon archy or Empire. His acts proved that he would not participate in suoh enter prises. The law which created the sop- tennate still less imposed the task of constituting a definite liopublic. Pe ri ore's bill offered him nothing, but by isolating him from the Conservatives, by whose aid he wished to govern, would de prive him of much; consequently, tho Ministry would declare iu his name that he rejected the projeot. In conclusion, ho expressed tho opinion that a proclama tion of the Republic might disturb order and peace, but if the laws ho asked for were voted, the septenuate would be come a government calculated to inspire confidence and respect. It is now understood that the Govern ment to-morrow will demand of the As sembly the adoption of the laws referred to by tbo President—namely, tbe consti tutional bill drawn np before tbe Commit tee of Thirty, together with the three additional measures proposed by the Min ister of the Interior to tbe oommittoe on the 10th inst.

When. about a mite from Watbana, Grubb sprang from tbe wagon and at tempted to escape, but was at onoe rid dled with bullets and instantly killed.
