The failure of Terri Brothers, lea? ther dealers, is reported. A Protestant Episcopal Church Con? gress is to be held in New York in Oc? tober. A number of distinguished Southern clergymen have signified their intention of being present; among them the Bishops of Alabama, South Carolina and Virginia. The objeot of the Congress is for the frank nnd courteous expression of different views on the polity of the ohuroh, with a view of udoptiug a general and united church discipline. Bishop Pot ter, of New York, will bo the President of the Congress. To-day's lYibune says: "Beeober's oross-examination shows him as sur? rounded by persons unworthy of trust, whom ho implicitly trusted. Ho was entangled in a not whose meshes he shrank from breaking, becausoof scan dal. It is n saddening exposition of weaknois, where uu udmiring public most looked for strength. The black? mail feature scarcely helps Beeoher, but falls like lightning upon his assail? ants. It Bhows Til ton's attitude in the business as touching the depth of in fumy. To Moulton it is destruction. Carpenter only escapes ou the ground that he knew no better. Unless they can promptly break the force of this revelution, or disprove Beecher's ex? plicit and, iu tho cross-examination, detailed avermeut, tho whole pack of his pursuers are plaoed by it beside Woodhull, and need occupy the thoughts of decent men or women no moro forever." The Times say6: "Whatever Mr. Beeober's statement may do for hie own character, it cer? tainly places tho character of some of his quondam friends and confidunte in a most nneuviable light. Beecher's cross-examinution goes to show that Tilton is not only it bud witness, be? cause be vapors und threatens and in? sinuates and drags iu irrelevant mutter; but because ho lies under the taint of pecuniury interest; nor, us the case now stunde, is the attitude of Moulton any more creditable. The worst fea? ture of the case is that the discomforts of these gentlomen may induce tbem to afiiiot the public witb more of this interminable tuugle." The H'orlu'snye: "Beeober has spoken out like a mau to men, and he deserves, as we have not the least doubt he will receive, a manly judgment at the hands of his countrymen. As for the vermiu who have preyed upon him, it is as unne? cessary to dwell ou their moustrous crime against society, as it is difficult to see how that crime can be ade? quately punished." The Herald says: "Beeober has presented bis ease as its best, and we oannot doubt but his statement relieved the minds uf a vast majority of those who read it, at most as if the whole burdeu of reproach were lifted away. It has cleared the air wonderfully; and if some mists re? main, this much is true, with Mr. Beecher's absolute denial of tho charges made, we are under an obliga? tion to weigh the statement und counter-statement by the relative cre? dibility of the persons from whom they oomo, nuless intrinsically there are contradictious and inconsistencies, whioh invalidate either statement, or unless the statement* are invalidated by the incompatibility of their general declaration with the facts they admit." The Sun says: "As to the charges of Tilton and Moulton and Carpenter and any alleged admissions to the man who would hung a dog on the word or oath of any of the three men who had so much us tho smell of black-mail on the hem of their garments, has no manhood iu him. The community cannot permit u man to be destroyed by the testimony of character of snob against Mr. Beeoher." Tho journals generally accept Mr. Beecher's state? ment as vindicating him from crimi? nality, bat regret bis weakness. Beeoher left for Peekskill, to-day, and will not probably return before October. At the parting reoeption, with his oountenanoe lighted with joy, bat with eyes filling witb tears. Bueuher stood with Ins wife and received the guests. Saratooa, Aagust 15.?Tho first raoo, ljg miles, was won by Picolo? time 1.56. Second raoe, 1% miles, Catesby won?time8.07%.
