WASHINGTON , August 31.
It appears , from the oflicial rec
ords of the Treasury Department ,
tuat the amount of money refunded
from March 4th , 1872 , to January
8th , 1874 , at Port San Furan , was
$150,130 ; the amount of uncertified
deposits , $223,241. There were up
ward of three hundred entries or
manifests effected by the running
of sums ranging from 6 cents to
nearly $4,000. Owing to a change
of rates the damages are small from
shipments , quantities , values and
other causes. Dr. Linderman , direc

COLUMBIA , Aug. 31.
A difficulty occurred last night at
Hamburg , South Carolina , between
two gentlemen named Browning

his party fired several shots without
effect , when Plum fired and killed
Browning instantly. The cause of
the quarrel is unknown.
It is feared that the crops have
been injured by the protracted rain
and cool Aveather. The Congral
river having risen considerable rain
must have fallen heavily in the upper -

The political excitement has
somewhat abated.

August 31. J
Over one thousand people assem
bled yesterday to hear Rev. Henry
Ward Beechcr preach. A special
train was run over the railroad to
Lancaster , while hundreds came by
private conveyances. Mr. Beecher
took his text from fourth and fifth
verses of the twelfth chapter of Ro
mans. Mr. Beecher commanded
the closest attention of his audience
for an hour or more , dwelling at
{ ength upon the subject of
Christian'unjty as against an unity
of the moro oijtwsrd foVi'ns'of reji-
glon. Too much thoughtand atten
tion had been given to external
matters of Christian organization ,
to the detriment and to the neglect
of their growth in spiritual.

to unite in a common religious be

forts ,
.NHW i'ouic , August 31.
Tne Star to-day , on the subject of
the Beecher scandal , publishes
among other statements , the follow
ing : Moulton and Tilton are to have
the Held alj to themselves for the
coming week. " Beecberls pounsel ,
who knows the nature of the papers
in Moulton's bauds , declare there is
nothing in them which can be used
to his injury.
A'reporter astpt | one of tlje mem
bers of the Investigaung'co'mmittee
whether any notice would be taken
of future publications. He replied :
"It is not likely that any official
notice will be taken , but , of course ,
everything depends upon the char
acter of the statements made. We
propose to follow this to the end , so
that when it is finished Mr. Beeoh-
er's enemies will have Tiothin'g to
sav. ,
ftupstjon Do you think Moulton
has" further revelations of imporu
"
tance to make ?
Answer We know he has nothr s
now ; he wjll probably produce
papers wljiph may he dfstorteij intq
supporting'his , charges , bu't'lielias
nothing bearing more directly upon
the point at issue than those papers
already published. He is in a bad
box now and he feels it. Both he
and ! Tilton are desperate , and will
undoubtedly take desperate ineas-
u.8& to extricate themseryesV pie'ro.
nothing which either of them
could ( say or do" now which would
surprise me , after demonstrations
of ; the past few we ekS ;
Question \Vhftt do thp commit *
tee ( think of the effect of their "re
port upon the public ?
Answer They are very well
satisfied ! with it. It could not he
anticipated : that any report we qouJd
make ' woijld give entjrosatisfactjon ,
The'oommunltv has been from the
first divided into parties , not onlc \
question of guilt'or innocence , but
on the question of friendship or en
mity to Mr. " Beecher. We did not
expect : to"satjsfy his enemies , on the
charge ! that we Intended' from the
outset to whitewash Mr. Beecher Is
ridiculous. We knew that in inves
tigating this case we were helping
to ( make hjstory , and that
our acts would be qlosely
scrutinized by those who
\yould not be biased by the party
feelng | which prevails now. Had
we belie ed Mr. Beecher guilty , we
phoqld have reported that fact how *
eyer panfu } } } t might havp been ; wp
found him innocent , and we said so ,
and gave our reasons for so deci
ding. Everything that has occur
red ihice then has only shown the
more clearly that we were right.
The conduct of Moulton In coming
to the meetinc on Friday night was
part of the same species of tactics
ho has been iu > } ng throughout all
this ; controversy. He thought
that he would break the
force of the verdict by preatjng a
disturbance. Moulton has been
IJghtly dealt with thus far , but there
evidence enougb at our com
mand to show him up In his proper
Colors. M/Qultou's / next statement
will be published within a day or
two in the pally Graphic and in or
der to glv an effect to the letters
which are contained in It fac similes
BROOKLYN , Aug. 31.
The sentiment in Brooklyn over
the acquittal of Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher by the investigating com
mittee and his church was made in
tense by an accompanying meeting
concerning Fiancis D. Moulton's
appearance in the house and the
scene in which he was the chief
actor. Some admired his pluck ,
many criticised his Impertinence ,
others admitted that he narrowly
escaped severe handling , and all
concede that the committee's ver
dict has not ended the scandal.
The Plymouth Church meeting will
linger in the memory of all who
attended it as one of the greatest
ever held in Mr. Beecher's church ,
where great meetings are the rule.
. Moulton's appearance stood latent
and pert for him , and gibs , geers
and insults were the only form in
which the church members could
appropriately express their feelings.
The presence of the police , many
said , saved a scene that would have
blotted the record of any great body.
A well known member of Beech
er's church said on Saturday :
"Moulton may consider himself
lucky to have escaped with his life ,
for a good feeling alone prevented
many from striking him. " In the
rush of the action that followed the
calling of Mr. Raymond a liar ,
there were many details unnoticed.
Several gentlemen who stood in
the forward part of the house put
their hands on their pistols and one
man standing near Moulton took
his pistol out or his inside pocket
and rested it beneath his vest , with
the handlepeepingout from beneath
the lappets. Moulton said after
wards that he was unarmed. He
waited on Friday aftern ion in his
residence for an answer from the
investigating c6nimittee to his tele
gram In which he offered to submit
to a cross-examination as he did
not receive any reply by
six o'clock. He started for the
meeting ; Tilton called then , and
Moulton said , I am going to Ply
mouth church to hear that report.
Tilton told him not to go , but Moul
ton replied that he intended to
go there with a prepared speech to
defend himself K his reputation was
attacked. He would not listen to
Tilton , but drove off" in his car
riage.
\V ARRENTON , Aug. 31.
The report that Secretary Bristcw
will resign his present position and
bo succeeded by Hon. Hugh Mc-
Colloirgh , is not credited in official
circles here , on the contrary there
is every reason to believe that Mr.
Bristow intends to remain at the
head of the Treasury Department
orsome time to come. His man
agement of the department gives
most complete satisfaction attor
ney General Williams has had pre
pared all the reports received by
aim from she South relative to al-
eged pcrsesution of negrc ? In that
section , and he will leave hero to
morrow for Long Branch to consult
'he President on the subject.
' Attorney QeneraJ is of the
opinion Unit some Immediate action
on the part of the general govern
ment is necessary for the protection
of the negroes.
General Patterson , of South Car
olina , arrived here last night , en
route for the north. He gives start
ling accounts of affairs in that State.
He says that notwithstanding the
fant that thp negroes greatjy out 6

latter will commit fearful outrages

that 600 Ku-kltix were advancing
on Columbia , S C. , for the purpose
of assassinating Gov. Moses , Sena

politicians * ot _ that city , turns out to
i
imvp qeeji only a party of
