The Beecher investigation com mittee held an impoitant meeting last night, the result of which is kept secret. The Daily Eagle of this afternoon says that enough, however, is known to warrant the assertion that the crisis of the Beecher-Tilton scandal has been reached, that the so-cal'ed very worst is known and that it is noth but what an explanation and an apology would atone for. Beecher will come out of the furnace of afflic tion with the purest estimate of his character, like gold many times re fined. Beecher is at present on his farm atPeekskill, while Tilton is at his home on Willow street, en gaged in preparing his case for pre sentation to the coiumittee. Mrs. Tilton is living at Snedecker's Ho tel, Coney Island. Ni:w Vobk, July 17. From the Golden Age: "One painful topic continues to effect the public mind; it depresses whoever tninks; it fills whoever feols with unanswerable sorrow; cu riosity that would reed on prurient ideas has given awav to an anxiety that gnaws at heart-strings, and a suspicion that overshadows the whole community with gloom. It is an Impossibility to avoid allusion to what is in everybody's mind and on everybody's lips. The policy of silence wa3 con tinued too long, and concealment is no longer possible. The worst must be known. This matter does not concern private and obscure in dividuals only, but the name aud fame of one of them belongs to the American people. Thousands had invested their interest and hope Jn tho other as a man of brilliant promlso, whose future would be an honor to tho country. Both of them lived In a blaze of publicity rising from a matter which concerns the innocence of one and the honor of the other, and it affects the whole community. For years this terrible scandal has been in circulation, and growing, by the efforts made to supproes it, more and more serious. It was pushed aside until at last it has assumed proportions that put it beyond indi vidual control. No barking that can now be struck up by interested friends will satisfy the public, nor save the character of the par ties involved. The dam has bro; ken nnfi tpo flood ' ihiist ' come. To talk of compromises now is as wild as to stop Niagara with compliments, and the sooner the worst Is known the better forevery IxhIv. Mr. Beecher has chosen a committee of honorable men to act as jurors of the gentlemen in ques tion. There is lqt onp opinion but Sipro c.an bo only 6110 opinion, as to Is Selecting Judges who are to de dido a case that involves iu it the character ami stajullng of others as wpll as his own. Were a father to rpfer a complaint of his neighbor to hjs own sons for arbitration, they might feel complimented by this serjp, blit the community would regard his conduct as a confession. Innocent men do not pack juries. In justice to hlmelf, his opponent, and a nation full of friends, who cherish his honor as their own, Mr. Beecher should have given Mr. Til ton a choice of Jialf the committee. Thopolicy that has been pursued, is admirably calculated to make the the people believe that the worst Is true. A brave and manly confession in the first place, if there was any thing to confess might have saved three, reputatjons. and quo qf thern, from ruin. Nobody cares for details, but everybody demands that the es sential truth, and the whole of it shalltbe made known. American people are judges, and their verdict will be Just, provjded thoy havo facts to judge from. Chicago Prouuce Market. Chicago, July 17.
