The friendship of England was never
more sought for by tbe leading powers

would use her influence in the interests
of peace. Disraeli repudiated tho
Erinoiple that the country was not to

believed tbe influence of England

worthy of her former prestige.

Tlte Hi t eller a?il Tiltun Scandal.
New York, July 22.?Tilton's 13th
consists of letters from Mrs. Tilton to
her husband, written in Jane and July,
1871, in which she states that her eyes
have beon opened, and she clearly sees
her sin, aud is prupaced to renew her
marriage vow with her husbuud, aud
keep it us the Saviour requires. Tho
14th sets forth that, about ono year
after Mrs. Tilton's oonfessiou aud six
months after Beocher's confirmation of
the same, Mrs. V. C. Woodhull wrote
an article in tho World, Monday, Moy
22, 1871, stating over her signature
that she knew of a man, a public
teacher of eminence, who lived in oon
cubinage with tbe wifo of another pub?
lic teacher, and she would make it her
business to analyze some of these lives.
At Mrs. Wtodhull's request, Tilton
called at her office, and Mrs. Woodhull
stated the parties mentioned in the
World were L'eoohcr and the wife of
Theodore Tilti n. Woouhnll detailed
with vebomout speech the wicked and
infamous story whioh she published
the year following. Tilton, desiring
to guard against her publishing tho
grossly distorted version which she
gavo to him, and which sho afterwards
attributed to him, sought, by personal
services und kindly attentions, to re?
tain her good will, and romovo all de?
sire in her to nfilict him with such
publication. Tilton's efforts and asso?
ciations with Mrs. Woodhull coasod in
April, 1872. and six months after sho
published tho scandal whioh he had
labored to suppress The 15th is a
letter from Thomas K. Beecher, of
Elmira, N. Y., dated November 5,
1872, as follows: "Mrs. Woodhull only
carries out Henry's philosophy, against
whioh I recorded my protest twenty
years ago." Tho ICth states that tho
publication by one of Decoder's part
nera of the tripartite coveunut led tho
press of tbe country to charge Tilton
with heinous offence against Beecher;
and to remedy this false pnblio im?
pression, Moulton requested Beeoher
to prepare a suitable card, relieving
Tilton from this injustice. Beeober
stated his embarrassments, which pre?
vented his saying anything without
bringing himself under suspicion. He
wrote the letter, however, to Moulton,
wbioh, on being shown to Tilton, ap?
pealed to his feelings. In this letter,
dated Sunday morntug, June 1, 1873,
Beeoher declares his determination to
make no more resistance, and stye:
'?Theodore's temperament is such that
the future, even if temporarily earned,
would be absolutely worthless aud ren?
dering mo liable, ut uny hour of the
day, to be obliged to stultify a!! the
doviccs by which we have saved our?
selves." Iu oonoludiug the letter,
Beeoher says: "There is no use in try?
ing further. I have a strong feeling
upon me that I am spending my last
Sunday and preaching my laut ser?
mon." This hopelessness of spirit,
botrayed by Beeoher, led Tiltou to re?
consider the question of defining him?
self at the cost of producing misery to
Beeoher. In another letter to Moul?
ton, Beecher says: "If my destruction
would place Tilton all rigb?, thut shall
not stand in tbe way. I am willing to
step down and out. None can offer
more than that, and that I do offer.
Sacrifice me without hesitation, it yon
oau olearly see your way to bis safety
aud happiness thereby. I look upon
death as sweeter far than any friend
I have iu the world. Life would be
pleasant, if I ct U'd sec that re unit
which I have shattered; but to live on
the sharp and rugged ends of anxiety,
remorse, fear, despair und yet to put
on an appearance of serenity and
happiness, ciuuot be eudured much
longer. I am well uigh discouraged
If you cease to trust mu, to lovo me, i
am alone; I do not know atiy pc-?OD j
in the world to whom I could go."
Tilton yielded to the above and
other similar letters, and made no de?
fence of himself against tho public
odium which attached to him unjustly.
17th states thut the marriage union be?
tween Mr. aud Mrs. Tiltou, until
broken by Mr. Brecher, was of more
thuu common barmouy, infection aud
mutual respect. Their house and <
household wero regarded for years by
ull the guests as an ideal home.
Hero follows the correspondence be?
tween Mr. and Mrs. Tiltou, dating from
January to March, lSUS?:ill tilled with
expressions of most loving tenderness.
The .specification concludes ns follows:
"Iu addition to the above, miny other
letters by Mrs. Tilton to her husband
prior to her corruption by Beecher,
served to show tbat a Christian wife,
loving her husband to the extreme, as
set forth, could ouly be swerved from
the pith of rectitude by urtful aud
powerful persuasions, clothed in the
phrases of religion aud enforced by
strong appeals from her chief Christian
teacher aud guide."
18th is a letter from Mrs. Tiltou to
Moulton, in which the writer denies
she evor Bought separation from her
busband, and brands the story that she
wanted a separation as a deliberate
falsehood, coined by tbe writers's poor
mother, who said she would bear tbe
responsibility of this aud other state
meuts she might make and communi?
cate to her husband's enemy. The
specification states tbat letter is given
to refute the story thut Beccher's
apology had been written because he
hud offended Tilton by engagiug Til
ton's wife in t he project of a reparation
from her husband.
19th states tbat during tho first week
in January, 1871, a few days after the
apology was written, Beecher (through
Moulton) oommnnioated to Tilton nu
earnest wish that he (Tilton) would
take bis family to Europe and reside
there for a term of years at Buocher's
expense. Similar offers buvo since
been repeated by Beecher to Tilton
through the same channel. The spe?
cification also contains tho affidavit of
Francis B. Carpenter, tbat he was the
bearer of a kindred message from
Beecher to Tilton last summer. Car
peuter, in his letter, also states that the
charge that Tiltou ever attempted to
levy black mail on Beecher is false,
but, on thecoutrary, Tiltou has always
rosented every attempt by Beecher to
put him under pecuniary Obligation?.
20tli states that not long after the
scandal became public, Mrs. Tilton
wrote on a slip of paper, aud left it ou
hor husband's desk, tho following
words: "Now that tho exposure but;
come, my wholo natura revolts to joiu
with you or stand with you." Through
the influence of Boecher's friends, the
opinion has long been diligently pro?
pagated that tho scandal was due to
Tiltou, and that tho alleged facts wero
malicious inventions by him to revenge
himself for supposed or imaginary
wrongs dono him by Beecher. This
impression wan heightened by Mrs.
Tiltou's praise and eulogy of Beecher,
she being authority for tho statement
also that Tilton was Beecher's slan?
derer. Tilton would not buvo com?
municated to tbe committee tbo facts
contained in the statement, except for
tho previous course of Beoeber aud
Mrs. Tilton to degrade and destroy
him iu pnblio estimation.
21st states that one evening, about
two woeks after tho publication of Til
ton's letter to Dr. Bacon, Mrs. Tiltou
came home late, and informed her hun?
hand she had boon before tbo investi?
gating committee, tbe existence of
wbioh Tilton had hud no previous in?
timation, aud that sho had given
Bwooping evidence, acquitting Beecher
of every charge. Tho next day, sho
spent several hours of extreme suffer?
ing from pangs of conscienco at hav?
ing testified fulsely. She expressed
the hopo that Qod would forgive her
perjury, but tbat tho motivo was to
save Beecher and her husband, and
also io remove ail reproach from tbe
cause of religion.
22 J and concluding specification
states thut, fiually, in addition to tbe
furegoiug, other confirmations could
be added, if needed, to prove that
Beech er accomplished the seduction of
Tilton's wife, und maintained criminal
intercourse with ber for a period of
one year nod a half, and to prove all
tbe facts and testimony given in the
statement. The statement is signed
Theodore Tilton, and sworn to before
Theodore Burgmyer, July 20,1874. In
connection with the statement, Tilton
I prescutcd letters to tho committee. lie
stated at length that ho has divulged
the statement solely? because of the
j openly-published demand for it direct?
ly by Beecher, aided and ubetted by
Mrs. Tilton?the paper being pur
poaoly restricted to the relations of
Beecher and Mrs. Tilton only.
Tilton this morning, according to
previous agreement, withdrew from his
house in Livingston street, in order
that Mrs. Tilton might return and oc?
cupy it. In arranging articles of sepa?
ration, he made bis wife u free gift of
the house and contents.
A morning paper says Tilton is said
to have informed bia uwn " children
that, with the exception of his eldest
daughter, the others had different
fathers. It is expected that Tilton will
appear again before the committee to?
day. Tho press generally, while com?
menting on Tilton's statement, with?
hold judgment until Beecher and Mrs.
Tilton ahull have been heard. The
Herald says: "This misfortune ia one
uf the most terrible that ever befell the
public. Mr. Tilton, whatever tbo
offence, has assuredly revenged it."
Elsewhere it ^ay.*: "We uro proud to
feel that, thus far, Beecher comes out
of the trial a brave, t-oruly stricken
and magnanimous soul, allowing him?
self in no way tin wot thy of his genius,
f.iuie nod forty years' blameless Cbris
tiau life." The Times considers seve?
ral of the specific charges made by
Tilton as demanding tbe deepest in?
vestigation and strongsst kind of dis?
proof before being disposed of, espe?
cially when he alleges specially that on*
certuiu dates Beecher had illicit inter?
course with Mrs. Tilton.
New Yoiik, July 23.?-Beecher has
made a preliminary statement, in reply
to Tilton, denying in toio the charges
of the latter and warmly defending
Mrs. Tilton from the ucou-mtious of
her husband, for whom, he says, he
cherishes u pure feeliug?such as a
gentleman might honorably offer to a
Christian woman and which she might
receive aud reciprocute without moral
scruple. He rejects with indignation
every imputation which reflects upon
her honor or his own. Beecher criti?
cally examines Tiltou's charges und
recognizes the reasou which makes it
of truuscendeut importance to himself,
tho church aud the cause of public
morality that a full answer shall be
given to them, and he looks to the
committee of investigation to search
the matter to the bottom and vindi?
cate him. He conoludea: "I do not
propose to uualyze aud contest at this
time tho extraordinary paper of Mr.
Tiltou, but there are two allegations
which I cannot permit to pass without
special notice. They refer to the ouly
two incidents whioh Mr. Tilton pre?
tends to have witneased personally ?
the one an alleged scene in my bonne,
while looking over ougravings, and tbe
uther a chamber scene in his own
house. His statements concerning
these are absolutely false. Nothing of
the kind ever ocourred, ucr auy sem?
blance of any such thiugs. They are
uow brought to my notice for the first
time. To every statement which con?
nects me dishonorably with Mrs. Eliza?
beth It. Tiltou, ur which iu any wise
would impugn tho honor and purity of
this beloved Christian woman, I give
the moat explicit, comprehensive and
solemn denial." Tho statement uf
Mrs. Tiltou will bo made public, uud
it is understood that it will be a com?
plete denial of the charges made
against Beecher and herself by her
husband. Beecher will prepare a mure
full aud concise reply, tu bo submitted
to the investigating committee ut as
early a day as possible.
New Your, July 23. ? Mrs. Tilton's
statement is published. She begins
with the expression that the impera?
tive necessity which is forced upon her
' to pick anew the pains and sorrows she
hud fur the last teu years daily schooled
herself to bury aud forgive, is tbe sad?
dest act of her life. A seuse of the
perversion of her life aud faith almost
nunipels her tu stund aside, till God
himself delivers; yet aho sees in tho
wanton act uf her husband uu urgent
call and privilege, from which she
shrinks nut. To reply iu detail to the
tweuty-twu articlea uf thearruingment,
*he will not attempt at present; but
if culled upon to testify to each uud
all of them, shall not hesitate to do so.
Sho solemnly avows thut loug before
the Woodhull publication, she knew
by insinuation uud direct statement
her husband to have repeated to her
yery near relatives aud friends tho
substance of tbe accusations which
shouk tbe moral senae of tho entire
community this day. Many times, she
says, when hearing thut certain per?
sona hud spokeu ill of him, ho bus
sent mo tu elude them for so doing,
and then uud there I learned he had
been befure mo wifh his calumnies
against myself, so that I was speech?
less. Tbo reiteration in his state?
ments, that he had persistently striven
to hide tho so-called facts, ia utterly
false, as bis hatred of Mr. Beecher bus
oxisted these many years, aud the de?
termination to ruin Mr. Beecher has
been the out) aim of his life. Again,
tho perfidy with whioh tho holiest love
a wife ever offered lias beeu recklessly
disavowed iu this publication, reaches
well-nigh to sacrilege, aud added to
this tho endeavor, like* the early scan?
dal of Mrs. WoodliiiM, to make my
own words condemn me, has no paral?
lel. Most conspicuously, my letter,
quoting the reading of Griffith Gaunt,
had Mr. Tilton read the pare charae
ter of Catherine, he would have seen
that I lifted myself beside it as near as
any human being may affect an ideal;
but it was her character, and not the
incidents of the fiction succeeding it,
to which I have referred. Hers was
not a sin of a criminal aot, or even a
thought. A like confession with hers
I had mado to Mr. Tilton, in tell?
ing of my love for my friend and pas?
tor, one year before; and I now add
that, notwithstanding all misrepresent?
ations and the angaish of some, I owe
to my acquaintance und friendship
with Mr. Beeoher, as to no other
human instrumentality, tbat oucour
ugemeut in my mortal life and that
growth towards the divine nature whioh
enabled me to walk daily iu a lively
hope of the life beyond. Tbe shame?
less charges in Articles 7, 8 and 9 are
fearfully false in each and every parti?
cular. Tbe letter referred to in Mr.
Tdton's 10th paragraph was obtained
from me by importunities, and by mis?
representations tbat it was necessary
for him to uso it in the then poudiog
difficulties with Mr. Bowou. I was
then sick nigh unto death. I signed
whatever he required, without know?
ing or understanding its import. The
paper I have never seen and don't
kuow what statements it contained.;
Iu oharge IS, a letter of mine, ad?
dressed to Mr. Francis Monlton, is
quoted to prove that I never desired a
separation or was advised by Mr. and
Mrs. Beocher to leave my husband. I
reply that tho lottur is of Mr. Tiltou's
own concocting, whioh he induced me
to copy and sign as my own?an act
which, in my sickness and mistaken
thought to help him, I have too often,
during these unhappy years, regretted.
The implication thut the harmony cf
the borne was unbroken till Mr.
Beecher entered it as a frequent guest
aud friend, is a lumentable satire upon
tbe household where be himself, years
before, laid tbe corner stone of free
love and desecrated it op to tbe time
of my departure, so that the atmos?
phere was not only Godless but impure
I for my children; and in this effort and
throes oi agony, I would fain lift my
daughters and all womanhood from
tho insidious und diabolical teachings
of these latter days. His frequent
efforts to prove me insane, of weak
mind, insignificant and mean presence,
all rank iu the category of heartless
uess, selfishness and falsehood, having
its climax in bis present endeavor to
convince the world tbat [ am or ever
have been unable to distinguish be?
tween an inuoceut and a guilty love.
Iu summing up the whole matter,
Mrs. Tilton says: "I affirm myself be?
fore God to be innocent of the crime
laid upon me. Tbat never have I
been guilty of adultery with Henry
Ward Beeoher, in thought or deed;
uor has he ever offered to mo an inde?
corous or improper proposal. To the
further charge, that I was led away
from my borne by Mr. Beecher's
friends aud by the advice of a lawyer
whom Mr. Beecher had Bent to me,
and who, in advance of my appearance
before the committee, arranged with
me the questions aud answers which
are to coustitute my testimony on Mr.
Beecher's behalf. I answer, that this
is again uutruo?having never seen the
lawyer uutil introduced to him a few
minutes before the arrival of tbe com?
mittee, by my step-father, Judge
Morse." She says she saw, well-nigh
with blinding eyes, that Tilton had put
into execution the almost daily threat
of his life, tbat he lived to crash out
Mr. Beeoher; that the God of battles
was in him; that he had always been
Mr. Beecher's superior, aud all that lay
iu his path?wife, children or reputa?
tion, if need be?should fall before
tbia purpose.
