Sunday: all thin may be talaed r,bout, but the real thin can not be. understood from the oatHide, nor 10 force and Krindina r.poa the nervous system.

(.signed) II- W. r.EKCHEK. The letter of Mrs. Tn which is here partly quoted, is as follows: tckdav. I leave for the West on Monday u-xt. How glad I was to learn that you were your own elf Hl'XDAY MDHMS. Theodore's mind has been hard toward yn of late. I think he proposes an interview w you by word or noU before leaving home. II so, be not east dnwn. I bear this almost always, but Ihe Oodin whom we trust will deliver ns all safely. 1 know you do, and are willing abundantly to help hlra, and I also know your embarrassment. I anticipate my western trip, when 1 mav be alone with him exclusively. I row come In my narrative to ulve an account of the origin o' the somewhat famous tripartite agreement. Shortly after the foregoing letter was written. Mr T. returned to this ritv thoroughly discouraged with the result of hbileet nrins tour. The Golden Age, which had beea established about twelve months, had not succeeded and was understood to be losing money. Ills pecuniary ooligatlons were pressing, and although HIS CLAIM AGAINST BOWEX for violation I his two contracts had the year previous y been under the contract of Moulton wllh a view of settlement, it had not yet been effected. About this time Moulton, who was sick, sent for me and showed me a galley proof fan article prepared by T. for the Golden Age, and which has since been published in the Krooklyn papers. In which he embodied a copy of a letter writte i by him to Ilowen dated Jan. 1, 1S7J, in which he charged llowen with making scandalous accnsanons against ray moral character. This was the first time I had seen the charges, and I had never heard o them except by mere rumor, Mr. IV) wen never saying at any time a word to me on the subject. I was amazed at the propooed publication. I didn't 'hen understand the rel object of giving circulation to auch slanders-My first Impresdon was that Tllton designed, under cover of an attack on me in the home of another, to open a way for tne put lU-a-tiou of his own pretended personal grievances. I protested against the publication in the strongest terms, but wait uured that it whs not intended as a hostile net to myself but to Uowen. I did not any the less insist on my protest against this publication. On its being shown to Mr. Uowen, be was alarmed, and speedily conRented to th appointment of arbitrators to bring about an amiriaUe settlement. The result of this proceeding was that Itowen paid Tllton over $7,Uo. and . written agreement was entered into by lJowen and Tiltou und myself of amnesty, ebneord and future peace. It was creed that the otfenxi veurlicle, the nubltcnlion of which produces snch au eMecton Air. iiowen, and secured a happy settlement. sbuld be destroyed without seeing the light. It was an act of treachery peculiarly base. Hut this article was permitted to get Into hands which would insure its publlcatl n, and it was published. 1 wa3 assured that every vestige of it had been destroyed, nor until a comparatively recent period did I understand how Mr. Til ton secured 1U publication without Keemtng to be himself responsible for the deed. Finally, after attempting to obtaia money, both from myself and wile, as the price of Its suppres sion, tbe Wood hull women published their version of the Tllton scandal in November, of 1X72. The details given by these were so minute, though distorted, that stispi -ion was universally directed towards Mr. Tllton as the real author of this, which lie so Justly eal Is A WICKED AXD HORRIBLE SCAXDAL thougb It is not a whit more horrible than that which he has now fathered, and not half so wicked, because those abandoned women did not have a personal knowledge of the falsity of their story as Mr. Tllton has of his To rid himself of tbts incubus Mr. Tllton drew np a voluminous paper, called a true statement, but which was familiarly called Tllton's case, I had some knowledge of its composition, hav ing beard much of it read, bit some documents were only referred to as on rile, and others had not yet been manufactured. Tilton's fever for compiling statements was one of my familiar annoyances. Moulton used to tell me that the only way to manage Theodore was to let him work off his periodical passion on some such document, and then pounce on the document and suppress it. This particular true statement was a special plea of abatement of the prejudices excited by his' Woodhull partnership. It was a muddle of garbled statements, manufactured documents and falsehoods. This paper he read to many, and 1 am told that he read it to not less than Ü0 persons, in which he did not pretend tochare immorality upon his wife. On Ihe contrary, he Cx?hcitely denied It and asaertedher purity, but charge1 me with mproper overtures to her. It was ibis paper which he read to Storn and poIsonCd hl mind With lt. thn t-a.lim i.-x r. tiUMnl prosecute Tllion in Plymouth Church, ttve inter-1 irrruco in ueiguoonag cuurcnes, a QU tue caiUDij of the-Congregatlon"5 council. After the W'Oödball story was published, and while Tiltr.n seemed. desirous, for a short time, of protecting his wife, I sent through him the following letter to her: Here is given the letter published in the Sentinel of August X The whole series of venu beginning with the outbreak of the Woodhu-1 story. epeatedly brought me a terrlLie aooamulaliou of anxieties and perils, Kverythln that had thr- "'oro now started again wi' new violence. Tllton's behaviour war at once inexplicable and unaccountable.His card to a complaining friend vi not produce the effect he pretended to ex pect from it of convincing the public of his great magnanimity. Then his infamous artlcluand letter to Brown made Its appearance in the Fagle. It had been suggested thalthe publication of the tripartite covenant would have a good effect, by contradicting the alanderoos stories about Mrs. Tilton and myself, which Theodore professed torecard.but which his foolish card and the publication of thai arti cle had done so much to revive and render mischievous. Mr. Moulton urged me to get from the gentlemen who held the tripartite covenant a copy of it for us, when suddenly Mr. WilkinMon came out with, on his own responsibility, ita pobileati n. In this manner I made stienuous but unavailing efl'oris to prevent it. lie bad or iglnally kept a copy of it. Everybody in this buslQss seeim to have COPIES OF EVERTniNQ hut rayse'f. On tbe appearance of that paper Theodore went into a rage. I put hlra, he said, In a fe po-dtlon b afore tbe public, and he said he would publish another card gl leg a statemen t somftvhiaj Uka what he wrote to Dr. Bacon. . a- i recollect the matter, uectarin II; . . committed an otlense, and i f 1 been the magnanimous party in the busui it Wtt)1 nec ssary io .a?.wna'- oio to calm him.

ful if not restrained . On Sunday I had made up

my mind to write Mr. Moulton tne io uowins letter, garbled extracts of which are given in Til ton 's statement. BEKCHER TO MOCXTON. Sunday Mousing, Jane 1, 1S73. Mr Dkak Fkank: The whole earth Is tran quil and the heaven is serene. As bents one wh has about finished this world's life I could do nothing on Saturday. My head was confused but a good sleep has made tt like crystal. I have determined to make no more resistance. Theodore's temper is such that the future, even If temporarily earnel. would be absolutely worth less, filial with abrupt charges andrenderlug me liable at any hour or day to be obliged to stultify all the devices by which we saved oarselves. It Is only fair that he should know that the publication of the card which he proposed would leave mo far worse off than belore. rue agreement was made arter my letter mrougu von was written. He had had it a year. He had . condoned his wife's fault. He had enjoined upon us with the utmost earnestness and solemnity not to betray his wife nor leave his children to a blight. I had honetly and earnestly joined In ihe purpose. Then his settlement was made and sUued by him. Jt was not my making. He revised his part, so that 1 should wholly suit him, and kilned it. It stood unquestioned for more than a year. Then it was published. Nothing but that which he did in private, when made public, excited him to fury,nnd he charges me with making him appear as one graciously pardoned by me. It was his own deliberate act with which he was perfectly content tltl other saw It. and then he riionrpi a vricvmiH wronz liome on me. My mind is clear. 1 am not in haste. I shall write for the ptilla a statement that will bear the light of the j ildamen t day. God will take care of m and mine. u inn I nnk on nieeiirin iL isueeu uixui. i;ru I look on the heavens above I see the mnrnliiir breaking.

It Is such ashethat renews a waning faith in woman hood. Now. Frauk, I would not have you waste any more energy on a hopeless task with such a man as Tiltou. There is no possible salvation for any that depend upon him. With a strong nature, he does not know how to govern it wich enerous Impulses. Tlie under current that role him is self. With ardent affections, be can not iove lonsj that which does not repay but with admiration and praise. With a strong theatric nature, he is constantly imposed upon with the Idea that a position, a great stroke, a roup de etai is nie way io suewsw. iienmes . . . ... i . i . i i these ne uas a nunureu goou uungs mwui mm. Hut tbese named traits make him absolutely unieliablc. Therefere there is no use in further trying. I have a strong feeling upon me, and it brings great peace with It, that I am spending my last Sunday and preaching my Jast sermon. Dear, Kood Uoti, 1 tnanK l nee man am inueeu besrt nn Inn to see rest and triumph. The path of life is but a moment. The glory of the ever lasting emancipation Is wordless, inconceivable, fullot breaking glory. Oh, my beloved rrank. I shall know you then and forever, hold fellow ship with you, and look back and smile at the past, lours lovingly, i. . There are Intimations at the beginning and end of the letter that 1 felt the approach of death. With regard to that, 1 merely reser to my previous statement concerning my bodily symptoms, and add, that on this day 1 felt the symp toms upon me. The main point is that I was worried out with the whole business, una wouia have beenglad to escape by death, of winch i had little dread. I could see no end but death to the accumulation of torture, but I resolved to stop short and wateno more time in making matters worse. I felt that Mr. Moulton had better stop too and let the whole Ihm come out. I determined then to make a true and full state ment, which 1 now make and leave the rtsuit with God. Mr. Tllton had repeatedly urged me. as stated In my letter, not to betray bis wlfe,and I lelt connd by every sense of honor. In case 1 should be pressed by inqulrles.froru my church or family as to the foundation of the rumors which might reach them, to keep this promise. By this promise I u.eant only that I would not betray the excessive affection which his wife, as 1 had been told, had concrlv d for me, and had eoniessed to mm. J certainly uia not refer to adu .e y. If there had been such a fact in existence Its BETRAYAL WOULD HAVE RUINED ME, as well as her, and a pledge not to destroy my self would have been too absurd to be men tioned In this letter. In reply to this note, which was calm and reserved, rather than glowing, Moulton wrote the same day a letter of three and a half sheets of copy paper, In which he deliberately, und twice In succession, leaihrmed bis ninin staiement, hat liiere was nothing in ' the whole casa on whl.h 1 eouul not sa'ely stand. He treats my resolution as born of such morbid despair as b bad often reproached m for, and urged me strongly to maintain my faith in him. Tiltou yielded to his persuasions, and graciously allowed himself to be smoothed by the publication of a card, exhonoratiüg him from the authorship of the base lies to which the tripartite coveneut referred. So onue more, and this time agalufct my calmer Judgment, 1 patched up a hollow peace with him. That 1 have grluviously erred in my judgment with this perrlexed case, no one is more conscious than ata. 1 chose the wrong path, and ncceph-d a disastrous guidance In the beginning, and have indeed traveled on a rough and ratsged edge in my prolonged i-öbrt to suppress this scandal, which has at last Knread lunch deflation through the land. Uut'Jl can not admit that I erred in desiring to keep these matters out of starbt. In this respe.-t I appeal to you and o all christian men to Judge whether a sacrifice ought no; to have been made rather than to suffer the morals of the entire community, and especia ly of the youag, to be corrupted by the filthy details of scandalous ftlsehools daily amplified for the gratlncatioa of impure cariosity, and the demoralization of every child hat Is old enough to read. The full truth of this history requires that one more lact should be told, and especially as Mr. Tllton has invited it. Money has been obtained from me in the course of these affairs In considerable sums, but 1 did not at first look upa the suggestions that I should contribute to Mr. niton's pecuniary wants as savoring of blackmail. This did not occnr to me nntil 1 had paid perhaps 82,(100; afterwards J contributed at one time iö,U00. After the money had been paid over in five one thousand dollar bills, to raise which I mortgaged my house 1 live in, I felt very much unsatisfied with myself about it. Finally a square demand and threat was made Kk me by my confidential friends that If $.i,0Uu more wer not paid Tllton's cnarxes would be laid before the public. This 1 saw at onte was blackmail in Its boldest form, and 1 never paid a cent of it, but challenged and requested the fullest exposure. But after the summer of 1.S73 I became inwardly satisfied that Tllton ws Inherently and inevitably a ruined man. 1 no longer (rusted either his word or hts honor. I came to eel that HIS KINDNESS WAS BUT A SV ARE, Ru3 rr?f??si?!! ?? friendship treacherous. lie did" not mean well by me, no. owu household. But. I suffered all the more on this accourjl, as he had grown np under my lnfln ence and in my cnurcn. i coma never free myself from a certain degree of responslbllity for his misdoings, such as visits a father for a wrong-doing son, and in times of creat mental depression, this feeling sometimes amounted almost to a mania. Mr. Belcher bero details his efforts to prevent the scandal being made public, wnicn was threatened on ihe trial of Tllton by the enure, it and saysorxiiton, "i was so ue enuined to carry out my pledges to Moulton frr him and do an inhuman power to save hin. even from himself, that I was ready to resign ii that would stop tue canaai. l wrote a letter of resignation, not referring to. the charses against me, but declaring that 1 had striven for years to maintain secrocv concerning a scandal affecting a family in the church. That as I had failed, 1 herewith resigned. Th's letter was never sent. A little calmer thought snowed me how futile it would be to stop the trouble, if I could. At this moment I do not remember any of t- e other letters wh ch I have written Moulton. If be has reserved all mv effuBlons of feeling, he must have a lre collection. I have no fear of their full and fair publication, for though they would doubt less make a sad exjosure of my weafcnes, griet and despondency, they do not contain a line confessing snch guilt as has been charge l upon me, or a worn inconsistent wiin my innocence, nor any other spirit than that - of a generous remorse over a great and more and more irreparable evil. But, how however Intense and numerous may be these expres Ions of grief, they can not possibly ever s'ate the anxiety which constantly ft- It forthe mi ure, the perns or which it is now clear I did n-t exajcgeraie, nor the sorrow and remorse which l I It originally on account of the Injury which I supposed I had unwillingly dono to a beloved family, and afterward for the greater Injury which t became sat Uned 1 had done by my nn wise, blind aud useless efforts to remedy that injury, only a it proved, at the expense of my own name, the happiness of my own family and the pace of my own church."

It is time for the saEe of decency and public morals that this matter should be brought to an end. It is an open pool of corruption, exhaling deadly vapors.

The announcement of the postponement of the last gift concert of the Publlo Library of Kentucky will not surprise the public. In Gov. Bramlette's card, published below, be g.ves reasons for it which will be accepted without question by every one. The management, in this Instance, consulting the Interests of ticket holders, and those designing to become ticket holders, have no, waited until the last day to make this announcement, but, just as soon as they became satisfied of the necessity of this postponement, have promptly male the announcement. It is unnecessary to review the causes which have necessitated this action, as they are fully recited In Gov. Hramlette's card. The promptnes and frankness with which the public have be n made aware of the lnte .tioaof the manager will meet with tbe hearty commt ndatlon of every one, and excite such a new interest and confluence in the scheme and the ability of the manager to per form what he promises, that there can be no doubt that on the day specified the last concert will be a full one. POSTPONEMENT LAST Girr CONCERT A CARD TO THE PUBLIC. The announcement of the postponement ol the tilth and last concert of the Public Library of Kentucky to the oOth Of November, I am sat isfied, will surprise few and disappoint none of the friends and patrons of the enterprise, in deed, any other course would create dissatisfac tion. With a precedent of a postponement of each of the four concerts which nave already been elveu, the public have very naturally and reasonably expected that In tnls. by far the largest scheme of the series, and the largest ever offered to the worm, tne same coor e wouia be followed, and there ace thousands all over tbe country who are onlv waiting for the selling of a certain fixed day for tbe drawing before sending in their orders. The sales of tickets to this date have been highly satisfactory, and a large drawing might be nad on tne aisi or July, but, feeling assured that a short postponement would enable us to close out the remainder of the tickets, and raske the drawing a full one, we nave adopted the course wh'ch has evidently been anticipated, and which must eventuate m st satisfactorily for all. Now that the day of the drawing Is absolute ly determined, there remains no further occasiou for delay, and I would urge the friends of the enterprise, who intend io pnrnase ticaeis, tosend in their orders, as it will tax my office tc its utmost capacity to accomplish all that Is to be done In the short time which remains tor the sale of tickets.
