At this rate the general increase through out the State, for this year, will be $28,- 830,000. The taxes were collected closer last year than everbafore,notwlthstanding the panic and other drawbacks, and the State will not lose one thousand dollars.

The Bade end Aware Appeal hr Troops— Citleene Prote.tThe President Refuse, to Rend Troop* to Vicksburg. BKECHXB PRIPABINO Hia WHAT HE BATS. New Yobk, July 81.—The Brooklyn Union aaya that e reporter, oho ie inti mate with Beecher, called at bia residence at tbe heights, and in e conversation of a confidential ebaraoter Beecher intimated that hia friends might rely on his disere, tiou and trntb. It was enough for the present that he had declared Tilton’s charges false. He was prepared to admit that hie aky was not aa clear as it ooght to be. There were hazy clouds in the ho rizon, and these darkened slightly toward the zenith ; but the aun of troth would, in its own good time, burst forth and dia- sipate them. He was preparing hia refu tation of all the charges against him, and he felt strong in hia own heart that he had done no wrong to any one. He might have been inoonaiderate, even indiaoreet; that when hia story had been told—when his plain, nnvaruisbed tale had been pre pared and given to tbe public—he would calmly await what il, and more particular ly his true friends, had to say, and by it he was quite prepared to aland or fall. He felt hiotsolf inuooent of any Intention to wrong any one, and with that feeling ever present in bis heart, be was prepared to oome boldly before tbe world and battle down an army of soandal-mongera. WHAT BKEOHEB WILL CONFESS. The New York Oraphic reports the following among the ontlinee of Beecher's defense, as ascertained from hie friends : Mr. Beeoher will acknowledge that sinoe the beginning of hia miniatry he has been beeet by letters addressed to him from women ezpreaaing great per. eonel adoration of him as a man and as a minister, and that communications of thia nature are constantly reoeived by every noted man in the community, es pecially by elergymau, poets and actors. He will confess that both ha and Mra. Tilton were very emotional, given to ex aggeration in sentiment, end that tbe correspondence between them was not whet should have existed between a pot* tor and a lady— that lady tbe wife of his friend; but the peculiarity of tbe ease was that Mrs. Tilton complained bitterly of her husband's eelf-snfilcienoy, want of kindness to her and possible infidelities, and she looked up to Mr. Beecher to give ber that affection and sympathy which ehe failed to find at home. Mr. Beecher will aoknowledge that he toyed with the temptation; that he allowed kindnesses end expressions of •ympatbetio tenderness by Mrs. Tilton, and that be reeiproeated them to a great degree, so much so that, while not eotnal- ly guilty of any wrong to Theodore Til ton, he so far compromised himself and tbe lady as to render necessary—aa it ap peared to his mind—the letters which he subsequently wrote to Mr. Moulton and Mr. Tilton, humbling himself before tbe Utter as before God, for hia extravagant demonstrations of affection for tbe wife of hie friend. Hence he will declare that while he was gnilty of indecorum, gnilty, perhaps, of leading a wile to love him more than her husband, guilty possibly in tha depth of his sympathy for her and in ailowiug hie impulsive nature tu lesd him away, he will deny any criminality. He will insist that hia relations with Mra. Tilton were no more intimate or blamable than the religious flirtation with tbe priest indulged in by “Oatberine Gaunt," tbe fietttiuua character quoted by Mra. Tiltoa, in wbieb be will find almost a perfect parallel for this cose. Owing to tho jealousy of one in his own family, who is near and dear to him, sto ries have been invented to injure him. He will explain wby, from this cause, he was for years oompelled to abstain from pastoral visits to the famil ies of bis congregation, and forced demand tbe appointment of Mr. Holliday to dieoharge this important part of hia duties, simply because he could not be seen with a women without being subjected to enapioions whioh filled him with anguish.

Governor Ames, who has bean away from his post, has returned, end to-day he telegraphed to President Grant reiter ating in the main the apprehension set forth in the telegrams and mail advices previously forwarded by Lieutenant Gov ernor Davie. He makoa no formal de mand for troops, but the tenor of bia die- patoh ia such as to intimate that he de sires Federal troops to be oalled to Vicks burg on election day.

Ames’ (of Mississippi) dispatoh to the President in relation to the Vioks bnrg troubles: Jackson, Miaa., July 29, 1874. To President U. 8. Grant, Washington I regret to inform yon that I find, upon returning here, that a serious end alarm, lag oondition of affairs exists at Vioks bnrg. Infantry and aavalry organisa tions exist, and it ia reported a number of pieoea of artillery have been sent to the oity, and bodies organized and armed without authority, end in violation of the law assume to be guardians of the peace. This is a polit ical controversy between the Democrats and Republicans. Tho whites olaim they fear frauds on tbe part of their oppo nents. The Republicans, consisting most ly of blacks, claim that they fear fraud and also violenoe on the part of the Dem ocrats. At one time a oollision and bloodshed was feared by all, and is now by the Republican! ; bat by tbe Demo, orats, it ia believed, only beoause they have become masters of the aitnation. They also oppose the preaenoe of troops at this time. Of the oansea of this lamentable state of affaire it ia now useless to speak. 1 only Beek peace and protection for all. Can there be any serious objection why troops should not be sent there? No harm can reaolt, for troops are many of oar cities at this moment. In two of the oities of this State their presence may do greet good. It may save many lives, whioh would more than compensate for the harm' which, if any, I do not see—to result from snob preaenoe. Will it not be the least of evils to have troops there for any emergency? (Signed) Albibt Ames, Governor of Mississippi. The President Refuse* to M»*d Troop*. The following reply was sent to Gov.
