MEMPHIS , August 7. The Conservative victory yester day was much larger than was sup posed by the most sanguine sup- porWe , they having carried every ward ln"ihe cjty'except the Fifth , which only gave a majorjty of 29 for the Republicans. Tbe'Uonsorr yativp majority in the city Is 8,593 , and a total vote of over 10,000 , or about 2,000 morp tjjan the ordinary vote.

Attorney General Williams lle- cides , first , that the operation of the conditions subsequent in congres sional grants of public lands , does not depend upon the rules of com mon jaw , but upon the intention of Congress , as gathered frona the lan guage employed in the grant ib-ejfj second , that the grant of lands made by Congress to Wisconsin , by an act of Congress , June 10th , 1850 , to aid in the construction of rail * roads in the State of Wisconsin , by an act of Congress , Juno 10th , 1850 , to aid in the construction of certain railroads , in which it was provided that if said roads are not completed within - = years , no further sales shall bo made , and lines \\i\- \ Bold shall revert to the XJntpd | States. It is determined as to pub lic lands unsold at the time on no- count of failure to complete roads as specified , in the act that no con gressional action or Judicial pro ceedings are necessary , but that such unsold lands will be remitted to the public domain by publication of an order by the scprptary of the interior , restoring them"to settle ment and niaiket.

Specially Reported for the Omaha Daily Bee , br tis Atlantic and Pacific TeleSraPh Co. BIIOOKLYX , August 7. Although there is nothing of im portance in the way of new devel opments in the Bcccher-Tilton scandal , the newspapers still find new themes of percussion sufficient , with the assistance of a mass o glaring headlines , to fill severa columns relating to the all-absorb ing Brooklyn topic. The Eagle from one of its headlines , "Fightinj expected all along the line , " refer ring to the coming law suit , give the impression that a bloody battle between the armies is imminent instead of the mortifying battle o character that is now being waged The Eagle says that during tlio committee meeting last night con siderable conversation occurred be tween Moulton and the committee relative to the testimony. Moultoi explained that he was not yet readj to submit his testimony , and thei read his preliminary statement suggesting Saturday evening nex as the time for them to receive his disclosures. The committee pre ferred an earlier date if possible , as they were anxious to get througl their labors. Moulton said he wouk try and get it ready for Friday eve ning , and if he succeeded wouli notify the committee Friday morn ing. He considered that Beeeher should testify first , but the commit tee held that this was unjust , as Beeeher was entitled to know all that was said against him before making his defense , and was also entitled to tee all the letters of his which were said to be in Moulton's posses sion. The committee assented to the request 01 Moultcn that he might bring his own stenographer , and the latter then retired. The Eagle states that Moulton led the committee to believe thathehail not as yet prepared his statement of alleged facts. The Eagle claims to have received knowledge from good authority that Moulton's statemenl is , and for several days has been pre pared , and that Moulton was with Gen. Butler from uie 29th of July until the 3d of August , and that his business was to obtain Butler's as sistance in preparing his stacement for the committee. The Eagle also states that some time after the appearance of Dr. Bacon's letter , Bacon ollercd his services to Beeeher through a third party , but Beeeher declined to re ceive them. Manyotherprominent gentlemen , several of them of na tional reputation , have also , accord ing to the Eagle , offered their ser vices to Bcccher , among them S. M. Conkling. Beeeher has not engaged counsel or accepted the services of any one. The committee did not care to go outside of the congregation for assis tance , and therefore availed them selves of tjip sprvjces of Tracey and Hill. The Eagle further says , it is distinctly stated that Moulton has in his posscssionjno letters or docu ments of any kind from Beeeher referring to the subject matter of Tilton's charges , on which were not easily explainable in Beecher's statement yet to come , and that a feeling prevails that when Beeeher does speak there will be a crush of reputations which are only under suspicion. TLc Eagle also publishes several interviews on the subject of the scandal , among them were Mr. Mbujtqn and'J. f. Studwell , who was at Ofip tinie publisher _ of th'e Revolution , TIlP rpportpr represent , Moulton as being very busy at his statement , looking as though as If ho was in the agonies of composition. But lit tle Information was obtained ; he will lay the papers before the com mittee in the order they came to In'rn , leaving that body and the pub lic to drji flfUir pwn inferences. Studwpll declared himsefon ] Beeeh er sjcjp , a.njfjgx.resse ) < l hjmsejfconfi- tlpnt tjie piynioutH pastor welcome out all right. He believed that Moul- toii meant mischief , and said he and others niuat be very careful as to what they said ; he once had a conversation wjth ijoulton on this subject a't Jacksonville ; FJa. , gb.ort- ly after the Woodhull convention at Washington , when Moulton declar ed to him that there was no truth whatever jn tl9 ! minors about Mr. Beeeher. He himself had close re lations , both social and business , with Tilton , but had split upon the rock of free love. The Union also publishes a num ber of Interviews , none of which throw any light on the subject. The only item of news in reference to the scandal is the following : The parties to the Beecher-Tilton scandal may be seen to be hard at work preparing for thp flqal struggle In the contest before the investiga ting committee. It is 'generally believed that If the matter Is to be settled outside of the courts that Moujtonte fortlieorning statement will settle It , as hs | statement will necessarily be submitted with the documents in support of it which botfi Beeeher and Tilton referred teas as being arthgntfp. The Argus pubjishcsan interview with Judge Morris , Tilton's counsel , on the subject of the impending law suit. The Judge stated that as Til- tqn | ) tid not thought of employing counsel untjl within a few days , he " poujtj not give any" information as to the course of futurp proceedings. He was only just beginning to make himself familiar with the tes timony ; but he had never seen a case so strongly fortified at all points , Ijotjx great and small , as Tilton's Pa.e'd. Ife rpferrpd as a minor point to Mrs. Tilton's ' apcur eation , that Tilton had all Jils life been making war on Beeeher , and to contradict this , brought forth fop reporters inspection , a large pile of correspoiiflencp , between Beeeher am ) Tilton , bearing dntps ' frorn Optober , } SG3 to May IB-JO. 'All those Jettprs contained the strong est assurance of mutual friendship. The Judge stated that during two or three months following the lost lettters , the estrangement took place between Tilton and his wife , and on the third day of July , of the same year , she made her con fession to her husband. He assured the reporter that the pvir dence which ho possessed , and which ho was engaged in , arranging preparatory to the trial was most conclusive and convincing he had over known Jn any case of law , and particularly Mrs. Tilton's statements concerning her hus band's cruel treatment , locking her jn her room , freezing and starving her , wjU be shown to be fictitious. Mr , Bacon Is stjll in JJrooKlyn. but declines to talk alxjut the gcaiidal. He expects to return to Woodstock , Conn. , to-morrow. Mrs. Tilton re mains at Mr. Ovington's residence. Frank Carpenter is. expected here to-day. Beeeher remains quietly at home. His statement will be made public early next week. There is no telling when the committee will terminate its labors , now that Moul ton has returned and agreed to ap pear before them. Tilton left his residence yesterday , and after along interview with his counsel , departed for Keyport , N. J. , on a visit to his parents.

It was stated by a gentleman 500 ? versant with th6 Beeeher'Bqan'dpJ , " last night , ' that'Beechor had several lawyers quietly engaged on his case , and that his latest letter to Moulton was their joint production. The coinmittep now announce a number ' of minor witnesses to Ije'examined , besides Moulton and Bee.cher."Thls will considerably ' delay the final re- Legal gentlem.pi } conyprsant wjth the case say notwithstanding" Moul ton's denial , appearances indicate he has been working in Tilton's in terest for a long time. The real issue of the investigation will come with Monitor's testimony/ is Ul not unlikely that an attempt may be made to criminate Beeoher from 67 his own words. Several passages- in Moulton's last letter are pointed out is direct threats against Beeeher. Beeeher , it is said , rigidly adheres to hjs. ( Ictermanation not to raid newspaper accounts of the scandal , he chiefly devotes himself when not engaged with his lawyers , by readinf ancient history , driving in the country or spending a pleasant day on his Peekskill " ' fariii , 4egqnitg | ] Moujton. prpb- able attitude when } t comes to testi mony therp are various opinions , somp hold he has been in collusion with Tilton all along , and his evh dencp will only serve tq strengthen the Idea that the whole afihlr is in the nature ot an evil laid conspiracy against Boecher. The majority think , howeverthat 6 he will sustain his character for fairness , and jf not acting the part of a peace-njaker , will at least tell truly and impartially all he knows additional. A charge of a serious character has been preferred against Mayor Havemyer and forwarded to Alba ny. The Governor forwarded the Mayor a copy of the charges for his answer. They accuse him of abusing - " sing the appointing power. Furth- pr charges are preparing. It is ru mored that comptroller Green has been indicted for malfeasance , WASHINGTON , Aug. 7. Lieut. Colonel Davidson , of the 10th Cavalry , has forwarded to the General of the Army the report of the talk with Ashahobe and Asatuy of the Perneth band of Comanches , which is interesting , as showing the cause of the present hostilities of the Comanches and other tribes. After some conversation in which they inquired as to how they were to be treated , Colonel Davidson asked the Indians what the Com anches had to comp'ain of , and what were the causes of the general hostility on the part of the Comanches , Kiowas and Cheyennes. They replied that the Comanches had nothing to complain of on the part of the government agent , troops , or whites , but tnat some two montlis ago a prophet arose among them , who told them he had an interview with the Great Spirit , who said the CaddoesWich- itas and other Indians who were adapting ; the mode of life of the whites were going down the hill fast as regarded.population , and the Comanches would do the same if they followed the same road. The way for them to be again the pow erful nation they once were was to go to war and kill off all the whites they could , Tile chiefs chimed in with the feelings and wishes of the evil dis posed of the nation , and the pres ent war is the result. The President has recognized Moritz - ritz Van Baumbach , as Vice Consul of the German Empire , at Milwau kee. BALTIMORE , Auguat 7. At 8 o'clock this morning , the prisoner Smith , was visited by De puty Marshal Frey , and Detective Pontier , of this city. To both gen tlemen he recited his innocence. As they were leaving , he begged them to send him a few apples , which they did , and he ate the fruit with a relish. The Maryland National Guard of this city , arrived at Easton , about 8 f a. m. , to help in preserving the peace. Shortly after 8 o'clock Sheriff Fitz gerald entered Smith's cell and dressed him in a new suit of black clothes. He was visited by Rev. Mr. Newman at 9:30 : , but made no further confession , although he trembled fearfully during the inter view. At 11 a. in. the cortege , com prised of the prisoner , sheriff , cler gyman and jail oflicer , started for the place of execution. The crime of rape , for which Ernst Smith is to be hung , was committed on Sunday , April 10th. His victim was Miss Kate Bartlett , and is 12 years old. He attacked her near the woods while the was walking from her father's to visit a married sister. The struggle was desperate , and Smith after commit ting the outrage attempted to re peat it , when he was arrested. It is said that he has attempted similar outrages on colored females. He stiil declares his innocence. Another negro , charged with at tempting to outrage a white mar ried lady , and two others , cl.arged with murder , are now confined in. th.'e sa'm.ejaj | . ' ' ' 'Thousands'qfpursons for miles around followed the wagon contain , ing the prisoner , to the fatal spot. Smith took his place on the drop at 11:30 : a. m. At ten minutes to 12 , the drop was sprung , laucuing tlie convict ' into eternity. His neck was broken by the fall , and eight min utes later his pulse ceased to beat.
