THE BEEOHER SCANDAL. TILTON SPEAKS.

A CONVICTING CARD. BEKCHER PROSOUSCED OCILTT HIS OWN 8IQA TURK PROCLAIMS IT LIGHT AT LAST. New York, June 24. Theodore ; Tilton published in the Golden Age this afternoon a aeven-colnmn article touching the Beecher scandal In defence of himself against the charges of the Rev. Leonard Bacon, moderator ol the late Brooklyn council, that Tilton has been a cowardly slanderer of Beecher, whose magnanimity alone saved him from a disgraceful exposure. Having suffered In silence for four years from these and similar misrepresentations put before the public by Plymouth church, Mr. Tilton Bays that neither patience or duty will permit him longer to conceal the actual facta from the public. lie then goes on to say tht he has never slandered Henry Ward boecher, but on the contrary baa sacrificed hi own reputation to suppress the truth aboui him, and that he never baa refused to appear before a church and answer all the questions regarding the scandal that might be put to him. Tilton gives his reasons for severing connection with the church as follows: "After I had been lor fifteen years a member of Plymouth chnrcb,and bad become meanwhile an intimate friend of the pastor, knowledge came to me in 1870 that he had committed against me an offense which I forbear to name. Prompted by my self-respect f Immediately and forever ceased my attendance on his ministry." He publishes the following as an extract from a document signed by Beecher: Brooklyn, January 1st. 1S74. I ask Theodore Tilton's forgiveness and humble mvself before him as I do before my (Jod. He would have been a better man in my ciicu instances than I bave been. I can ask nothing except that be will remember all the other breasts that would ache. I will not plead for myself. I even wish that I were ceid. Signed. H. W. Beechxr. Neyt Yar June 25. Among the documents which Theodore Tilton, in h's long open letter to the Rev. Dr. Leonard Bacotf, on what is commonly known as the Beecher and Tilton scandal, is the following under date ot May 1, 1S74: Sir Mr. F. B. Carpenter mentions to me your saying to him that under certain conditions involving certain disavowals by me, a sum of money would or could be raised to send me with my family to Europe for a terai of years. The occasion compels me to state explicitly that as long as lifo and self-respect continue to exist together in my I reast, I shall be debarred from receiving either directly or indirectly any present oi other favors at your hands. The reason for th s on my part you know so well that I will spare you the statement of it. Yours truly, Thfxdore Tilto Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, Peekskill. Tilton follows tbiä with a reference to what, he declares the fact that although he had received from the clerk of Plymouth church on the 18th of May a communication aunouncius; that his (Tilton's) offer to appear for trial had been read by the Rev. Mr. Holiday, assistant pastor of Plymouth church, and submitted to the examining committee by whom it had been rejected, Mr. Hail - day had some forty days afterward empba: -cilv denied to several newspaper reportei that such an ofier had ever been received,and branded the whole story as lalse irom beginingto end. The Rev. Dr. Bacon having in his apeech characterized Beecher as the most magnanimous ot men, and referred to Tilton as a dog and knave, leading the public to infer that the latter was in some way the creature of Beecber's bounty. Tilton states that be called Boedier's attention to the offensiveness of the statement, and insisted on its correction by either that gentleman or himselt. Tilton closes bis letter to the R9v. Dr. Baoon as follows: "If the public have heretofore considered my silence as inexplicable, let my sufficient motive be now seen in THB JUST FORBEARANCE which I felt morally bound to show a man who had sent me a written and absolute apology; but - my duty to continue thia forbearance ceased when the spirit of that apology was violated to my injury by its author or bis agents. These violations bave been multitudinous, and they threaten to multiply in the future, forcing me to protect myself against them in advance, particularly against the cunnning devices of the clerk of the chnrcb, who, acting as attorney, appears to be conducting this business against me as it it were a case at law. Had the fair spirit which I had a right to expect from Plymouth Church, at least tor its pastor's sake, been shown toward me I would bave continued to rest in silence on Mr. Beecher's apology, and never during the remainder of my life would I have permitted any public word of min e to allude to the offense or offenders; but the injurious measures which the au'.horof this apology has since permitted his church to take against me, without protest on his part, involving gross injury to me, which have been great I3' aggravated by your writings, b ave pu me before my country in the character of a base and bad man, a character which I trust is foreign to my nacure and life. Under the accumulating'weight of this odium, unjustly bestowed on me, neither patience nor charity can demand that I keep silent." Mr. Beecher is now onj his farm at Peeksville. aud to-day the children, teachers and friends ol Plymouth Sunday school go there 10 congratulate tneir pastor on the occur rence ol the sixty-first annivemajy ol .his birthday. BEECHER'S SENTIMENTS. HE KEARS ON ACCOUNT OF OTHERS TO V(T A WEEK CARPgNTER EXPLAINS THE M YS TEH THICKENS. New York, June 2.-Al a consultation ou the Tilton letter last evening by the Rev. Henry "Ward Beecher and some friends, Mr. Beecher is reported to have said that person -ally he was opposed to saying anything publicly in reply to Tilton's charges. He believed that the only eflect of utterance would be to prolong the discussion of the case, while if silence was preserved, the end would be speedily reached, lie assured the gentlemen that his bearing towards the silent policy was in no way caused by any fear of the consequences to himself by a discussion. His desire was simply to get out of the difficulty with as little injury to others as possible. He knew by cpeaking he conld end the matter so far as he was personally concerned, but be also thought that continued silence on bis part would shortly have the same effect, and entertaining that opinion, he could see nothing to be gained by any demonstration. Professor Raymond admitted the forbearance Mr. Beecher had all along exhibited in this matter and was sure his congregation did the same, but be thought It questionable whether forbearance had not now ceased to bo a virtue. It wasf be knew, a Christian duty to be magnanimous, but the question in his mind was whether pusilanimity and magnanimity were convertible term?. In this connection Mr. Shearman, a lawyer and clerk of tne church, said that if it was necessary to say

anything in reply o Tilton it could be said very briefly. The w hole matter was involved In an apologetic letter, and he thought all that was necessary was to show, as could be easily done, that the letter cited by Tilton was never written by Mr. Beeeeher and that nothing resembling it exists. Mr. Beecher remarked that they would all be in a better condilion to deteimine what oug ht to be done a week hence, and since he saw no Immediate necessity tor action, he thought it would be Just as well to give the question - a week's calm consideration before determining anything. In that spirit the conncil ' dissolved. F. B. Carpenter, the artist, whom Tilton speaks of in connection with a proposition to raise the means to send himself and family to Europe for a few years, has been interviewed. Carpenter says: ,4A few davs after the adjournment of the council I had occasion to call upon Mr. Beecher at bis house in connection with a matter wholly disconnected with this scandal. In tbe course of some friendly conversation I mentioned the fact to Mr. Beecher that Tilton had just finished bis book in which he bad been engaged for a ear. I added the excitement ol the council had depressed him considerably, nd that I am in common with several of his friends wished he could go to Europe. Mr. Beecher said he thought it would be an excellentthingforhlmtodo. In reply to that I said that recent business embarrassments stood in the way, to which Mr. Beecher answered that if Tilton desired to goto Europe the means would be provided. I did not understand lrom anythiug said by Mr. B3echer that he made this proposition in order to secure Mr. Tilton's silence in regard to the scandal. The matter only came up incidentally I had not gone to'Mr. Beecher on this subject, and he could hardly have expected that 1 would bring it up. I told Mr. Tilton what Mr. Baecher bad said, and it enraged him greatly, although it was a longtime after wards that I learned that be bad written to Mr. Beecher about tbe thing."

BEECHER'S SERMOM YESTERDAY. NO REFERENCE TO TILTON AN OVATION TO BEECHER. New York, Jnri 23. Perhaps the largest congregation ever seen Irl Plymouth church, attended this morning, an announcement having been made that Mr. Beecher would nreach his last sermon previous to his sum mer vacation. After the regular Introductory services, Mr. Beecher road the flftyfourth chapter of Isaiah, taking as tbe text of his sermon the fifth Terse thereof. From the beginning to the close of his discourse, the greatest attention was paid. The regular attendants were well pleased and the crowd of curious people heard a good sermon, but looked somewhat disappointed as there was no relerence made by Mr. Beecher to the letter of Theodore Tilton. When the services were over, the members of Plymouth Church and a number of strangers crowded up to the platform whereon Mr. Beecher stood, and a general handshaking, which continued for some time, took place. Mr. Beecher looked his pleastantest and evidently the thunderbolt has not struck hini. When he bad shaken tbe bsnds of all who could get within reach and had listened to the kind expressions of the more distant, Mr. Beecher lefl the thun b. BEECHER'S DEFENSE. THE POPULAR FEELING IN BROOKLYN WHAT MR. BEECHER PROPOSES DOINO THE PROBABLE ACTION OF PLYMOUTH CHURCH. A correspondent to the Chicago Tribune says: Theodore Tilton's letter to Dr. Leonard Bacon is attracting the profoundest attention here. The letter has been variously interpreted, and few have caught its true meaning. Mr. Tilton purposely made it vague, and to-day refused point blank to make a specific charge. That part of the doc ument which troubles tbe people most, is the quotation from a letter ot Beecher to Tilton, under date of January 1, 1S71, in which the preacher says: "I ask Theodore Tilton's forgiveness, and humble mytelf before him as I do beiore my God." Mr. Tilton says to-day tht quotation is only a paragraph from a long letter. This made many people say to themselves, though they rebelled against believing it: .''Mr Beecher had a guilty conscience when he wrote this. He has Binned greatly. This accounts for his refusal to make charges against Tilton. when challenged to do so in a church meeting." But the majority of people minis mat the end of the depior ibia controversy is near, and that the revered preacher will come out fro in it stainless. That this mav be so is really tbe prayer of all ' thoughttal christian people, for it would actually be a misfortune to humanity to which Mr. Beecher mav al most be said to ba known for this great teacher of practical religion, to be proved a hollow hypocrite. At the regular Friday night meeting Mr. Beecher presided as usual. He made no reference to his troubles, but talked in his old genial way, one minute having his audience in tears, and the next convulsed with laughter. A dispatch to the Chicago Times gives the following interview with Mr. Brecher himself AN INTERVIEW with the brilliant pastor of Plymouth church. Strolling along on the way to the meeting of the examiners, Mr. Raecher said he had made up his mind that he ought to take no notice whatever of the recent state ments published by Mr. Tilton. Takiuz the writer's arm, aud speaking fr-tukly and forcibly, Mr. Beecher said- "I do not blame Mr Tilton. The whole allair is the fault of meddling ecclesiastics, and I do not fee that I ata bound to gratify tbem or the gen eral public by noticing Mr. Tilton's state ments, 1 bave a large church under my care and I owe a duty to my congegraMon first Besides," said Mr. Beecher, vniilindv x Bui a uieinoer oi the Dress. and my paper requires oons'derable atten tion from me. The writer suggested that, unfortunately, there was much in what was recently made public by Mr. Tilion which, though not conclusive in itself, might ice construed In a worse sense acainis Mr. Beecher, and might seriously aft'evt hi power for good among his congregation. Mr. Beecher (earnestly) Ah! ye that is true. I do not pledge myself to temain &ilent in view of developments lhat may possibly arise.and even now I spak my own personal views when I say I am disposed to make no reply. My course, however, will depend largely on what course toe examination of Plymouth church may think it best for me to take. If they deem it for t be -good of the congregation and of religion that I SHOULD SPEAK OUT in reply, I shall do so promptly and unmistakably, and will put in its true light much that I thought best to pus-j over in a spirit of Christian chanty. Reporter Do you intend to notice this matter in your parer ? Mr. Beecher No; I don't think I ought to enter into any newspaper controversy. I must cay frankly that I veiy inn 'h admire the tone and temper in which the press gen erally has dealt with this matter. It is a sad thing that this matter, which is mainly a personal one, both as regards Mr. Tilton, myself and others, should be dragged forth to satisfy the pruriency of some of the public. Then Mr. Beecher said: "Dont you think I am right?" Newspaper rivalry seems to have been the cnlef original cause of all this Tilton-

Beecher scandal. One Bo wen, who owns The Independent newspaper, is jealous of The Christian Union, edited by Beecher. Bo wen removed Tilton from the editorship ot The Independent, and subsequently from The Brooklyn Union, and has since hounded him down as much as possible, and taunted him in regard to this Plymouth church scandal. Tilton . says himself: "I have long BORNE UNJUST ASPERSIONS. I am a miblic man. and I find I must, in

justice to myself, undertake my own defense." PRESS COMMENTS. Mr. Tilton's letter is like all his letters on this subject, a medley of dark bints, vague and dreadful suggestions, with Just enough of solid evidence to give them a point. Why can't the man either speak out in plain English or forever hold his tongue? Of the two, we bad much rather he did the latter, but it isn't to the interest of good morals to propound conundrums on a subject like this. This last utterance ot Tilton shows more animosity aeainst Beecher than anything before published by him. For the rest, tbe letter published by Tilton as coming from Beecher is of a nature that would seem to call for some response from the friends of the latter. Springfield Union. With this charge f attempted bribery, in connection with the alleged letter from Mr Beecher, containing an acknowledgment of his sin and the most contrite apology, there remains no alternative to a searching investigation on the psrt of the church authorities. Resolutions of confidence iu their pastor will no longer avail. Cincinnati Times. It was first brought before the public by the Woodhull woman, and involves persons both famous and infamous. And yet, it is better, perhaps, all things considered, that tbe whole truth should be made known. shocking as the whole truth may prove; for tbe Industrious and painiuuy protracted at tempt to keep it suppressed has already done more barm than a lull revelation would work.

His publication of the Brecher letter would seom to necessitate either a flat denial of its authenticity by the Plymouth .pastor, or else an explanation, which has thus far been so studiously withheld. Springfield Republican. Mr. Ieecber'8 own admissions, as quoted by Mr, Tilton, are certainly very strong, and will, perhapa, startle many who hold that the lives of ministers of religion should correspond in some degree with their preaching. The solemn warning, "Tis sure your sin will find you out," is not limited in its application to tbe hearers of the ord , but applies to tbe preachers thereof also, Mr. Tiiton declares that he would not have pub lished a line on this unpleasant subject but for the persistent attacks which have beeu leveled at him by the friends of Mr. Beecher and there seems no reason to doubt bis word. N. Y. Times. We must see the full text of his article, and test the genuineness of his evidence, and hear from others', before commenting upon this painful business. Mr. Tilion loaves the nature of the alleged offense against him a matter of inference. It was sufficient to cause an apolosv from Mr. Beecher. if the letter published is gnuu:ne, and Mr. Ttlton would nnt dare to publish a forgery of such a character. If the ofiens was such as to admit of a partial reconciliation even, after apologv, that burial of the matter should have been liral. 11 art lord Cotirant. Conceding Mr. Tilton's statement to be true, the public will lo inclined to consider Mr. Beecher's willingness to sacrifice one whom he had already deeply wronged, in order to save bis own reputation, as an of fense even worse than his original fault. That a good man should yield to a sudden temptation is quite concen able, but tbe man who, instead of standing up and taking the Eunisbment be deserves, endeavors to shield imself by sacrificing an innocent man. can scarcely find an apologist. The Graphic. Scar dal, like death, loves a shining mark and the pastor ot Plymouth Church will be made to drain this cup of bitterness to Us very dregs. It may be just, but it is exceec ingly sorrowful; and when those who have escaped this trial rise, as they will rise fast enough, to moralize upon and condemn him, we most heartily wish they could remember tbe words ot One wiser than all, who, in tbe greatness of His love and charity, rebuked those so eager to punish a transgressor, and bade him who was w.ithout sin to cast the first stone. Inter-Ocean. Deplorable as the case is, t is for the best interests of Mr. Beecher, ot Plymouth church, and of morality aud religion, that it should be settled at once. Grieved a3 all good men will be to find that Mr. Bewher has been guilty of improper conduct, and eminent as hi r ositiou is, there is no reason why an exception should be made in his case. While he should not be condemned because he is a man of geuius,neitber should his offense ba extenuated because he is a man of genius. He should be treated like any other man under accusation. His offense should be neither magnified nor con doned. If he h innocent, th9 public will i rejoice. If he is auiltv, then he must meet the consequences. While ha cannot erase i ue past or ucao wuat ne nag aireauy uoue, he has yet a future will to be of his own making Chicago Tribuue. The neuter has taken such distinct and forniii shape that it would seem impoasible bat tbe entire truth should not now come but. As we have always said, Mr. lieeeher's friends owe it to boih themselves and Mr. Reecher to i$o to the bottom of this scindal. If Mr. Beecher is Innocent, tor the sake of justice, his sood name, and tbe cause of morality, hisinnofnce should be made to appear. If he is guilty, do not justice and the good of the irhitrcb and society demand that be should lie exposed? Cincinnati Gazette. It Is to ba hoped that those who have succeeded at last in drawing out tbe statement will be satisfied with their evil work, and subside. Whatever the offense, Mr. Beecher and Mr. Tilton seem to have agreed to keep silent; and neither tbe extraordinary sensation of Victoria Woodhull nor the badgering of Dr. Storrs and the congregational council fumuioned at bis instigation, were sufficient to induce Mr. Tilton to break the seal of secrecy. Tbe Rv.

New York Herald. We bave often thought ot him, as we have no doubt he has often thought ns, a blind and unsafe guide of the public mind. But we bave always recognized in him an earnestness and manPness of nature as thoroughly fitted to command the respect of all honorable antagonists, as to conquer tbe passionate devotion of those who think with him tbe -same thmes concerning tne service or uod or 01 tbe state. And as tbe spectacle of a brave man beset by vacrant ana mangy curs In the dark, or drenched in parsing through the public streets by malicious drudges empyting ves sels of dishonor from an upper window, is not, to ourthinking, a spectacle conducive to tne puodc weai, we simply averted our face from the scandal and passed on. It is to the credit of Mr. Beecher that so far as ap pears be has never condescended, then or since, to enter into any warfare with his disreputable assailants! Dia aliter visum. The divines took another view of the story. iiio 11 unu( Mr. Tilton has much to say of the reti cence he has hitherto observed. We shall be greatly surprised if be does not soon regret that he did not observe it longer. It is not for us yet to judge the action of one who claims to have been vitally Wronged, but we can hardly conceive any suffering more intolerable than that which the eloquent and indiscreet editor of the Golden Age has prepared for himself by this unhappy manifesto. The well-nigh fatal mistakes of two or three vears ago were beginning to be forgotten. He now comes forth stung by what seems the insufficient provocation of technical irregularities in the Congregational conlerence and unfiiendlv criticisms in certain newspapers to challenge to a mortal duel the most eminent preacher in tne world, a man revered for his genius and his gcod works as far as Christianity extends. It would le a misfortune to all of us if tbe just and righteous fame of the great preacher should receive the slightest stain from this assault; aud it would be base ingratitude for this people to think any evil of nun be iore he has teen beard, or without stronger proof than has yet been onered. rsew lork Tribune.
