T?Io?r?ulilc? American matter*.
New York, July 25.?The Beecher
investigating oommittee was not in
session to-day. An endeavor to inter?
view Mr. Beeoher, this morning, only
resulted in obtaining from him a de?
claration that Tiltou's charges were
absolutely false, as in due time he
would make apparent. Mr. Tracy,
the counsel conducting the case before
the oommittee in the interest of Mr.
Beeoher, says: "Beeoher's fault was
venial; the etupidity that induced oou
oealmeut was damnable." Theodore
Tiltoa saye of the publication of his
statement: "I would not have had it
published for $100,000. Augustus
Maverick, a friend of mine, helped mo
to oopy the original, and made a
second oopy of it while I was before
the committee. He printed it oat of
friendship for me. When I heard of
it, I went to my room in tho Astor
House, and threw myself oa my bed in
despair." The opinion seems to gain
groaad that, despite the unwillingness
of oertain of the principal parties, the
Boechor-Tilton scandal is destined to
go boforp the ooarbi. Tue tier aid saye
that one plan in that Tilton trill bring
suit for e divorce and suit for damage
against Bee?her. It is more probable,
however, that tbe legal process will be
a criminal indictment against Tilton
for slander. Tbe Herald thinks an in?
dictment of tbe latter kind unavoida?
ble. Tilton's latest threat is that he
oould draw a sword with two edges; it
is oonstrned to mean that, if provoked,
he will rake np scandals that have been
floating about Brooklyn, and intro?
duce the names of lad'es not yet named
in tbe case, who bold good positions
in society, as alleged victime of sin
and shame.

ing, at 1 o'clock; it had been conveyed
about forty rods into the woods, leav?
ing traces of biood on the way. Miss
Ball was a girl of uncommon muscular
power, and appearance.! indicate that
she made a desperate resistance. Two
men have been arrested on suspicion,
bat the real perpetrator is probabiy
still at large. Intense exsitement pre?
vails.
New York, Jaly 27.?The following
is a portion of the Tilton cross-exami?
nation before the Becohor Investigat?
ing Committee: Question?Have yon
not frequently asserted the purity of
your wife? AnBwer?No; I have al?
ways had a strong technical use of
words; I have always used words that
conveyed that impression; I have
taken pains to say that she was a de?
voted Christian woman?that necessa?
rily carried the other. As ho took it,
I do not think it covered the whole.
I have said that Elizabeth was a ten?
der, delicate, kindly Christian woman,
whioh I think she is. Question?Have
you not stated that she was as pare as
au angel? Answer?No; I have not
sought to give Elizabeth a good cha?
racter; I have always wanted to do so;
I think she deserves a good character.
I thiak she is better than most of us?
better than I am. I do not believe, in
point of actual moral goodness, bar?
ring some drawbacks, that there is in
this oompany so white a soul as Eliza?
beth Tilton. To tbe question as to
his wife's devotion and parity of life,
the witness said she was pure, unless
a technical moaning was applied to the
word parity. She sought the consola?
tion of her pastor, and he took advan?
tage of her orthodox views to make
them net and mesh, in which he en?
snared and for whioh witness hold him
in contempt, whioh no other English
word could deseribo. Question?You
say for a year, after what yoa state as
Mrs. Tilton's confession, she insisted
she had not violated her marriage
vows. Answer?Yes; Elizaboth wob in
a sort of vaporous cloud; she was be?
tween light and dark; she could not
seo it was wrong; she mentionod it to
her mother in my presenoo, olaiming
that she had not done wrong; sho can?
not bear to do wrong?a sense of hnv
migrants
ipg done wrong is enough to orush her.
Sbo naturally beeks for her own peace
a conscientious verdict. She never
would have had theae relations, if she
had supposed at the time they were
wrong. Elizabeth never does any?
thing that at the time seems wrong.
For'such a large moral nature, there is
a laok of a oertain balance and equi?
poise. She has not a will that guides
aud restrains, bat Elizabeth never
does ot any time that whioh does not
have the stamp of her conscience at
the time npon it. Question?Do you
say that she did or did not insist that
she had violated her marriage vows?
Answer?She always was sayitg that
it never seemed to her wrong, and
"Theodore, I do not see that I have
now wronged you." Tiltoo desoribed
in detail the improper caress whioh
ocoured in the parlor, while looking
over the engraving, Baying that
Beeoher touched slyly Mrs. Tilton'?
lower limbs. He said of the bed-room
Boeue, that he went to the room door;
Elizabeth came, and I was surprised
that the door was locked. She was
surprised at fiuding mo. Beeoher was
sitting in a red plash rocking-chair,
with bis vest aabattoned; his face oo
lored like a rose when I saw him.
Question?The explanation was satis?
factory to you on that occasion? An?
swer?Entirely so; I should have
thought nothing of it, had I not won?
dered at the door being locked. Ques?
tion?What was the explanation given
which yon found satisfactory? An?
swer?Annoyance of ohildren; my wife
said ours and tho neighbors7 children
were making a noise; she wanted a
quiet talk with Mr. Beeoher, aud so
she looked herself in. Question?That
satisfied you? Answer?Yes, it was
entirely reasonable.
Tilton publishes a card, calling pub?
lic attention to the fact that the Ply?
mouth Ohurch committee, in its pub?
lication of testimony, omits the most
important fact, namely, that the crimi?
nality which his sworn statement
charged upon Beecher and Mis. Til
ton was confessed to Tiltou, not only
by his wife, but by Beecber; further?
more, that it was confessed by her uud
him to Mr. Monltou, us the frieud und
counsellor of both; und, still further,
that Moultou'i mediation between
Beucher und Tilton was based ou the
one sole fact of this pru-existiug critni*
uality botween Beecher und |Mrs. Til?
ton.

Schknck's Sea Wekd Tonio.? In tho
atmosphere experienced here daring
the summer months, the lethargy pro*
dooed by the heat takes away the de?
sire for wholesome food, and frequent
perspirations reduce bodily energy,
particularly those suffering from the
effects of debilitating diseases. Iu
order to keep a natural healthful ac?
tivity of the system, we must resort to
artificial means. For this purpose,
Sohenok's Sea Weed Tonic is very
effectual. A few clones will create an
I appetite and give fresh vigor to the
enervated body. For dyspepsia, it is
invaluable. Many eminent physicians
have doubted whether dyspepsia oau
be permanently oared by the drags
which are generally employed for that
purpose. The Sea Weed Tonio, iu its
nature, is totally different from Bach
drags.. It oontuins no corrosive mine?
rals or acids?in fact, it assists the re?
gular operations of nature, and sap
plies her deficiencies. Tho Tonio, in
its nature, so muoh resembles the gas
trio jaioe, that it is almost identical
with that fluid. The gastric jaioe is
the natural solvent which, iu a healthy
condition of the body, causes the
food to be digested; and when this
juioe is Dot exoreted in sufficient quan?
tities, indigestion, with all its distress?
ing symptoms, follows. The Sea Weed
Tonio performs the duty of the gastric
jaioe when the latter is deficient.
Sohenok's Sea Weed Tonio is sold by
all druggists. July 9 fl3

A regular habit of body is indis?
pensable to health; yet few disorders
are more common than costiveness.
By this term is implied a sluggish con?
dition of the bowels, which oaasea
thorn to retaio their contents longer
than is consistant with health, aod
renders the act of evacuation difficult
and painful. Headache, dizziness,
feverishness, a sense of fullness in the
head, loss of memory, incapacity for
cantinuoas mental effort, and a gene?
ral feeling of oppression in the abdo?
minal regiou, are amoog the accom?
paniments of this complaint. Tho spe?
cific for it is Hostetter'ts Stomach Bit?
ters. This famous stomachic and al?
terative acts beneficially upon the three
principal organs connected with the
processes of digestion, secretion and
excretion, viz: The stomach, the liver
and the intestines. Torpidity of the
liver is, in most canes, the immediate
cause of constipation. Bile is mode?
rately aperient, and if iu regular dis?
charge into the upper bowels be in?
terrupted, obstructions accumulate and
harden iu the intestinal canal, and
purgation becomes necessary. The
Bitters, being anti-bilious as well as a
tonic and laxative, soon restore the
derelict liver to a natural condition, as
well as relieve aud tone the bowels.
The result is the permanent establish?
ment of a regular habit of body. No
disorder of the stomach or its depend?
encies, no affection of the nervouB
system, no ailment involving physical
weakness and mental despondenoy,
can resist the renovatiug, regulating,
purifying operation of this famous al?
terative. _ J26f31fl
