BROOKLYN , August 14.
Beyond 'he ' cross examination of
Beechor thorp js Ijttlo now in the
case to-day. Tilton to-day in con
versation declined to express an
opinion of Beecher's statement.
He thinks it is now Moid ton's ' turn
topput , femljers of the coinmit-
'
tee say tlio work | s now 'practically
done ; they will discuss- the entire
testimony and probably icport next
week ; they expect , however , to hear
jgajn frOm , Moulton and if lie uses
the reserve forces ho claims to have ,
there-may be muph more-work before -
fore the committee yet. The gen
eral effect ot Beecher's statement
and examination lias undoubtedly
been to influence the public mind
powerfully hi his favor. Soiflp
of the newspapers claim tluit
the- popular verdict 4s already
virtually pronounced PS upholding
Beecher , while others await the ex
pected developments from Moulton
and the final verdict ' of Uie com-
m'ttlng ju Igmont. Tjjton to-day
asserted that hisaqower to B.eechor's '
' "
statement was fea'dy "in the shape
of Moulton's suppressed statement ,
Whjoh he tlljuks must now see the
light , as Moulton can no longer
withhold with splf-rpspeot. Tilton
characterizes Beecher's attack on
Moulton as base beyond parallel and
most ungratelul. If Mouton | tells
the plain fapts thp result will be to
annihilate Beecher. All the testi
mony in the case taken by the com
mittee wil } be published , and will
make a volume of over 500 pages.

tion of the circumstances that drew

nal intercourse with Mrs. Tilton :
On Thursday evening , December
29th , 1870 , alwuf'1'o'clock , Tilton
called at my house and with in
tense earnestness" saidv , . "IwWi -
you tOgo'With'uie'toiecMr. Monl--
ton. " J replied that I could iiot
then , aV'T-was"-just'gOhig to my-
prayer meeting ; vithvamost po"i-
( ive inaniior he said ; "you must go
- sonieltody ; elSe will take carc.of the.
mefcling. " l went" witlTliini ] ' " nt > r
kiuming what trouble had agitated
hiiu , bat wKiiely'.tTiJnklng Uiarr
might now liyrn tlio solution of the
iccent fatal h-tter. On the , way I
asked what wa. > - the reason of this
visit , to wliich he replied that Mr.
Tilton xvuuld Inform , inefor word- ,
to that eflect. On entering the
house , isri-r Motiltou lockedthadoor , .
saying fcomethingabout _ not being
interrupted."He requested me lo
go into the front chamber over the
panur ; Jjkvas under the impression
that Mr , Tilton was oing to-pour
oift mxiii me his anger for colleague-
itig w itlr fJowen , and for the advice
of separation given -Jus wjfe.-v I
VWied Mr "Mhulton to bp with mo-
as a witnp , but heiijyjsted , tlat ) I
should go by myself.Mr Tilton re
ceived me coldly , but calmly ; after
a word or two , andfetanduig.in front
of me with a memorandum in Jiis
hand , he began an oration ; he said ,
iiFan unfriendly spirit , that 1 sought
his downfall , and' hat } aprpad inju
rious rumors about luni to under
mine him , and had advised Mr.
Boweirto-difainbs him , and much
more that I cannot remember.
He then declared that I had injured
- r- had
jured his family-relations- -
joined in with 'his mother-in-law ,
in producing discoid in his house ,
and had tidviscij a separation , and
had alienated his wife's"
from"hini ; ° Jiau led"irer'to love me
more than any other being ; had cor
rupted her moral nature , and tauglit
her to ffiTJiisincefp aif hypdjcfitical , '
and ohaYgcd mo wjth making
wicked proposals to her. Untir he
reached this I had listened with
some contempt , under the impres
sion that he was attempting to bully
me. But with the last charge , he
prqd iired a paper , purporting to be a
certified statement. ° f previous con -
fession , nmcJo to him Iiy his wifc of
her love for me , and that - Ihad -
made proposals to" - herof an 1m-
proppr jjntlire. He saiU this Confes
sion Imd been made to hjjn in July ,
six months pfcvloua ; Ifmt his Sjense.
of honor , and affection 'would not
permit any such document to re
main -hrpxjstflupe ; lhat'hehad
burned the original ; and sl > oud | ' now
destroy the'o'my copy , and he' then
tore the paper into small pieces. If
I hud been shocked as much by that
statement , I was simply struck ,
when he closed the interview by re
questing me to repair at once \o his
house wheip he said Elizabeth was
; '
waiting for'me , and fj > qr from Ijer-
lips the truth of hU slorles * in o far
as they concerned her.
This fell like a thunderstorm on
me. G'ould bo-possible thatrhls -
wife , whom I regarded as the type
of moral goodness , should have
made such fajse and atrocious statg-
muntH i am ) yet , | f iho hud not , how *
would ho ( jar9 to semi mQ to lior for
confirmation of his charges. Invent
forth like a sleep w.-jlker , 'whjle
clouds were flying jn thpsli.y. Tliere
had Leon a fellow storm" , . w'hlohVas
breaking awayj tlip winds were
out and whistling through the trees.
But this all was peace compared to
my m'o'of } wjflijn/'I ijelfeve that
Moulton woijt wjth nip t.9 tiie ( ) qqr
of Tllton's house. Tlio hotisckocppr
the samp woman of whom Tilton
had .complained fecomed , jo have
been instrupted by | iim , for she evlr
dentjy expected me. and showed
me at once to Mrs. Tilton's room.
Mrs. Tilton lay upon her bed , white
as marble , with closed eyes as in a
trance , Miud w'lli ' her hands upon
her bosomT'pMm to palm , like one
in prayer. As I look back upon ft ,
'
the picture js Jikp sortie' fofin paired
in niorhle that I had sepn upon
monuments In Europe. She made
no motion and gave no sign of re
cognition fif my prpsoncp , % sat
down near her and said ; Eliza
beth , Thcodorg 1ms been making
very serious charges against me , and
sems. | me to you for confirmation. "
She nude no icply or sign , yet it
was plain. Jthat Jshe was conspjous
listening. I iope'ated some of his
statl'mehtiitliat hatlbronglit discord
to tlio family , had alienated her
from him , am ) sought to break up
the family and usurped hjs hillu-
encp , and then fl.s well as J'uoujd I
added that hp said that I , made im
proper suggestions to her , and
that .she had admitted thjs fact to
him last July. I said : "Elizabeth ,
have you made s.-qgh statements to
him ? " she made no'answer. I re
peated the question ; tears ran down
her checks and the very slightly
bowed her head in acqujesence. I
said : "Elizabetli , " you dannot mean
that'yo'ii have stated" all that he
has charged ? ' She opened her'pyps
aiul began In a slow and feeble waj'
to explain how- sick she had been ,
how wearied out with importunity ;
that he had confessed hjs own alien
love , and said thatb.e could not beqr
to tbink that she was better than he ;
that she might -win him to reforma
tion if she would confess that she
had loved me more than him , a.nd
tbat tlipy , would repeat and go on
with future concord. " I cannbt.
givp her language , but only the tenor - "
or of representations. 1 received
them impatiently ; J spoke io her in
the strongest language of her course ;
I sail } to hpr , have I ever used any
improper advances toward you. ( She
said , no. Then I asked , why did
you say sq to your husband ; she
seemed deeply distressed. My friend ,
by that designation she always 'call
ed mPi Tarn sorry , but I could not
help it j- what can -f o ? I told her
slie'could state in writing what she
now told me ; she beckoned for her
writing material , which i handed
her from her secretary standing ,
near byj and she sat up in bed and
/vrofcTii brief counter-statement in it
'sort of postscript ; she denied espli-
citly that I had ever offered any
improper solicitation to her. That
being the only charge made against
me by Mr. Tilton , is sustained by
the statement about the confession
which he had rea-1 to me. I dreani-
edJof no "Worse-charge at that
time. That was , indeed , honible
enough. The mere thought that T
'could make"ifand c'oulil have ex
torted any , eyideiiccjou which to
-TuxsVit , wa&enoiigh "to Jake away
"niy senses."Neither my consciousness -
-ness of jtsjutter falsehood nor Mrs.
Tilton's retraction of her part in it- ,
could remove the shock from my
heartIndeed , her admission-
< ino-that she had stated underany -
clrcurnstanced to her husband so
wicked a falsehood , was the crown
ing blow of all. It seemed as if she
was going to die ; tliat- her mind
'was overthrown , and that 1 was in
some dreadful way mixed up in it
.andmigliLbaJeft bj-Jier death. - > \ Jth
this terrible accusation hanging
over me. I returned like one in a
dream to Mr. _ Moulton's house ,
" $ l eeXal : fy5y liTUe ? and soon
"
went" home ; I had informed him
'what ' she had done and that I had
her retraction. Moulton expostu
lated with me ; he said that retrac
tion underthe circumstances would
iiot'rnthitl matters , but only awaken
fresh discord between husband and
\Viforahdtio great injury to Mrs.
Tiltonwithout helping me. Mrs.
Tilton , hesaidjjha'd already recanted
"in wTlting the retraction made to
"inenfml'dr course there might be
lip end _ to ' joich .contradictions.
Mfianwhilo'TiltonJmi reported , it
has Ceon faafd , that I confessed the
guilt and axpr od .remorse. This
is utterly fal = e ; is it ) } lfoly that with
Mrs. Tilton's retraction m my Docket
: l should have thus stultilied myself.
On the next evening Mr. Moulton
Called at my house and came up in
to my bedroom. He said that Mrs.
Tiltoi ) , on her husband's return to
her after our interview , destroyed ,
his \JJ'e'a fitstJetteruickuowledging
her.coijfesjion , anil Mr , Moullou
claimed that I had taken a. mean
ad vantage and had made a dishon-
orabje use of Tjiqgdpr&'s request that
Ishould visit herein obtaining
written contradiction toadocument
not in existence. He said that all
the difliculties could be settled with-
outanysuch papers , and that I
ought to give it up. He was under
great excitement ; hq made no ver
bal threats , but he opened his over
coat and with spine emphatic re
marks showed a pistol , wliich ho af
terward iook out-nml * laJU oij the
bm-oaii near -which ho stood. J
gave the paper to him and after a
few moments' talk he left. "With
in A fftw days Mr. ' Mo'ulton made
his third visit , aiul this time we re
paired to my study in the third sto
ry of my house. Before-speaking of

went on stil | pourjng out my wound
ed feelings over the great desolation
in Tiltou's family. It was not a
dictation of sentence after sentence.
He was a mere amanuensis and I
composing for hjm.
Mr. Moulton was putting into his
own shape , parts of tljat which J
was saying in my own manner ;
with profuse explanations , this pa
per -of Moulton's was a mere memo
randum of points to be used Uy hjm
III. settng | forth my feelings. That
It contains matters and points de
rived fron ) rnc is without doubt , put
they wore put into sentences by him
and expressed as he understood
them , and not as my words , but as
hints of my figures and letters , to
he used by him ip ( jonversjqfl wftb
Tilton. He .did not read the letter
to me , nor did I read it , nor haye I
ever seen it or heard it read that T
remember , until -U > p "publication 'of
Tilton's recent documents ; and
now reading it I see in vit thoughts
that point to the matter of-any dis
course , bul it is not my papcrT nor
are these my sentiments , nor is it a
correct report of what I said ; , it is-
a mere string-of hints hastily m'afle"
by an unpractice'd writer , as"helps
to his memory in representing' to
Tilton howl felt toward his family.
If more than this beclaimed , ifitbe
set forth in any proper sentence as
my letter , I then disown it and da- .
nounce it.
Some sentiments , and particular
ly that in which I am made to sa >
that I had obtained Mrs. Tilto
forgh'cness ; trnever could'have
-said ; even Trrsnbstance. I had not
obtained-or asked any.rforgiveness
-from her-"and
, nobody pretended
that t I had done so , neither could . .I
ever had said that I humbled .my
self before Tilton. as before God , ex
cept in the sense both to God and
the man I thought I had deeply in
jured. '

The Plyinouth'cjiurch committee

The committee Adjourned after his
