up through four years oi the agony and despair Mr. Beecber so pathetically describes, one is surprised to see in Llm SO UTTT.K ESB OF JUSTICE 1 towards those who, from no fault oi their own, became cognizant of the whole sad atory. To blacken such characters as Susan i. Anthony and Laara Curtis Bullard. Iiessde Turner sn unreliable servant. a self-conlcssed tool for whomsoever might choose use her is the ' main witness .-vnt Mr. Tilton, and his friends who chanced to viit his house. Her statement in regard to Miss Anthony was false, and of me was exaggerated beyond all bounds. She said before tbe committee that I frequently played cheas with Mr. Tilton " until 3 o'clock in the morning, as if hhe, ho was never half awake in tbe daytime, could spend her night3 in watching. Throa?h all the years of our acquaintance I played chess once with Mr. Tilton, finished tbe came at 12 o'clock, and retired, making a notoot it tbe next day in the Revolution, which I was then editing. You ask if it is penible for Mr. Beecber to maintain his portion In fare or the fac s. His position will be maintained. for.bini, as be is the soul and center of
THREE roWERFUL RELIGIOUS RIKG3, as he tell yon himself, in hi statement: 1. Plymouth Church; 2. The Christian Union; 3. "The Lilb of Christ." As church property is not-taxed, its bonds, in the hands of the wealthy men of that organization are valuable, and the bondholders, alive to tbeir financial Interests, etahd around Mr. Beecber, a faithful, protecting band, not loving truth and justice It -ss, but their own pockets more. They are hrewd enough to know that in Mr. Beecher's dowufall their bonds would be or little value. Next, the Christian Union a dull paper that represents no new thought in morals, ,' religion, Or politics that Hoats on the name of Eeechcr, In spite ol Mrs. Stowe's heavy scripture lessons and Edward Beecher's theological antiquities. "The Great Treacher" seldom gi'ds Its pages with bis brightness. If, then, ill- good name Is shadowed, another virtie of suffering stockholders would be brought to grief. As to "The Lifo or Christ" in the words of one of tbe fohl, that would, indeed, be blown "higher than a kite" were the anthor proved an unworthy shepherd. letrayiog the flock be was et to watch. I have beard that he was paid -JO.OOO for that work bef re he put pea to paper. Then he ground out one volume, which the English market refused to touch until tlie second was foithcominer, ßd thus the whole Investment bangs by the eyelids, until MR. BEECHER IS WHITEWASHED
and sees lit to finish the work. With such
wealthy circles of influence in Brooklyn
and New York, all depending on tbo vindi
cation of Mr. Beecher's honor and honesty,
vou will readily understand tbe number,
jdrennth and activity of his partisans, and
the reason why the tone of tbe metropolitan
press differs so widely from that throughout the country. Under such circumstancps,
"notice for Mr. Beecber is quite Impossible,
AVhen the friends of Mr. Beecher thought tboy hd silenced Mr. Moulton, cur city press toasted him as a brave, gener-m-, refined gpntleman; but, as soon as he opened his month to tell tbe whole truth,
he lecame a blackmailer and conspirator.
If the secret history or this tragedy is ever
brought to light, we shall have such revela
tions of diplomacy and hypocrisy in high places as to open the eyes of the people to the impossibility of sectiricg Justice for any
one when money can be used against him.
When a refined gentleman and a scholar like
Theodore Tilton cm bo hurled in a dav Irom
or.o of the proudest positions in the country
the able editor of a great journal and he
come a target for the jihes and jeers of the nation, without one authenticated accusa
tion of vice and crime agninst him. all
young men are specially interested in know' ins whether his downfall 1s the result of j
lack of moral rectitude in himself, or those
who counseled his dfthronement. They
who trv to see Theodore Tilton vindicated do
but maintain the claims of common justice for these who have not the money to buy it.
I have long known Mi. Tilton and Mr,
Moulton. and visited them frequently in
their pleasant homes, and seen them under
trvinz circumstances, and know tbey are
not the base, unreliable men represented in
Mr. Beecber'a statement.' However, when
this matter is thoroughly sifted in the civi
courts. truth may be made to appear. With
kind regards, Elizabeth Cadt Stanton.
RECONCILIATION.
RARE COIN'S.
THE COLLECTIOÜ AT T'JE UNITED STATES
MINT ANCIENT SPECIMENS OF MONEY.
The Philadelphia Bulletin contains tbe following account of the cabinet of precious
coins in the United S.ates mint: The cabi
net ot coins in the United States mint in
this city has recently been enriched by ad
dilions from the East. Persona who have
visited it need not be reminded of the many
interesting pieces of fmoney ßath
cred during different intervals
not only in our own country, but from the British Isles, continental Europe Asia and Africa; bmtbereare many, both inhabitants and visitors who have passed by the building which contains the relies of nations living only in inscriptionson them and in history. Here are rem nders of tbe commercial wealth of Carthage, of the agricultu
ral affluence ot Home and r f Grecian facility of organizing armaments. Nor is Egypt, the land ot tbe kings, forgotten; Persia is not passed by ; and even the widow with her mite is recalled and her story rehearsed. Among all the specimens, however, none are so prominent as those to which present notice is riven. A piece of money about two-thirds tbe size of one of our old cents, with an image of Diana oh one side and a Greek inscription on the other, is said to have been struck at Philadelphia that is, tbe far eastern city about two thousard yeais 8go, or two hundred years before Christ. It is now in a good t.t ate of preservation. There is also a shell represent fng the means of trade in Africa, It is of pure gold, quite small, and rests upon an ordinary sea shell; and forty of tbexe, it is said, will, in the land oi dark complexions, buy a slave. The language setting forth this important use is "rpondylns moata." China is more favored than other lands. A collection of 700 pieces attests tbe ingenuity
and skill of tbe orientials in designing. There Reems to be on the part of this people
a longing to imitaie articles useful in the household and on the toilet table. Razors, kevs. babies' rine. batebcts and almost

TUE BLUE AND THE GRAY. THEY CNITB IN A FRATERNAL UNION A PRACTICAL METHOD OF RECONSTRUCTION THÄ OBJECTS AND METHODS OF.TIIE OR OANIZATION.. . . . ,. . , . .... . A correspondent of the Chicago InterOcean writes this from Vlcksbarg, Miss., under date of tbe 23th ult., concerning a new and important social and political order of soldiers and its future significance: Yes, sir; the most practical method of reconstruction I know of a glimpse of light breaking in upon tbe future of tbe South is this 'Order of the Blue and the Cray " said my companion, enthusiastically, as we were promenading the long deck of the packet 11. U. Ece; "you must stop at Vicksburg, and write that thing up. It will do more good than all the bloody yarns you tell of nigger killing." "f. you belong to it?" I asked. He was a confederate soldier. "No; but I will as soon as they get it in my town, and we're going to bave it there; and some of those old blue-bellies I used to
fight asainft are Just a3 anxious for it as I
am. Now, vou stop at lcksourg ana iiuu out all about it."
So I did. It's only a little over a month
old, this association of federal and confederate soldiers, and Vicksburg has tbe honor of originating it. I went to seo the men in
whose minds tbe Almighty planted this
olivo branch, and they told me "all about

said :
" If tbe men that did tbe fighting in the

That 'a sol " eenoeu tue otuer two It's all caused by those fellows who did
no fighting, but stayed at home and grum
bled. Now the war is over they are thirsty for blood and huncry for olBve. Tbe sol
diers ought to turn in aud make them take
a back seat."
"Let's do it!" was the echo azaln. and a
grand plan of harmony a practical clasp
ng of hands
ACROSS THE REOODY CHASM ' ' ,
began to dawn on each of those minds there.
They talked upon the idea thus suggested
till they developed it into a plan the or ganization of old soldiers, who bad de
monstrated their patriotism in a practical
manner, into an association to work to
gether fir mutual good and they, left
that restaurant with their brains teeming
with a noble idea. Just as tho three were
going out they met Gen. Harris, who com
mamled a brigade in tbo Southern army,
Col. Furlong, a federal oüicer, and Warren
Cowan, another confederate otueer. Ihey suggested tbeir plan to them, and it met tbeir hearty endorsement.
"Whv didn't we think of that before?"
asked one.
"I'm sure every soldier in this town will
join it." said another, "and will spread it all
over tue tsoutnern Mates, auciei a miru,
"till it becomes a national institution."
A meeting was called, notices being posted
over tue eignatures oi tne men i nave
named, and they are some of tbe best in the
town. The meeting was held, tb3 plan.rat-
ified enthusiastically, and 15." names
were enrolled before adjournment. Nobody made any opposition, and nobody refuses to join, when invited. Another meeting was
he'd the second only a tew nights ago, which was crowded, not only by men but by ladies, who canio out to signify their approbation of this uniOD, and an organization was
perfected, resulting in the adoption of a
" TREAMBLE AND CONSTITUTION. Whereas, There are residing in the city
of Vicksburg a . large number oi
citizens who were formerly soldiers or sailors, some of whom
wore the uniform and followed the flag cf
the United States, battling for the preservation and supremacy of tbe Union, while others, not less confident of their devotion to
the right, wore tbo uniform, followed the fortunes, and fought and. struggled undar the government of tho confederate States;
and
Whereas, All who were good soldiers during the war have made good citizens in
time of peace; and.
Whereas, The soldiers of both armies are
now citizens of one common country, with
one destiny, one flag, and perfect identity of
interest; and,
WnEREAS, Themen who served faithfully
in eitner the army orthe United states or in that ot thfl Confederate States of America, during four weary years of unhappy civil
strife, may be relied upon oy their fellow citizens in any emergence'; and,
Whereas, The ox-soldiers of the two
armies here present deem tho occasion ap
propriate to form an association, the object of which is to uphold the laws, to promote kindly relations and friendly intercourse between tbe members, to repress, bv their
teaching and example, ail lawlessness and
riotous demonstrations, to preserve the
peace and promote tho good order of society.
to afford protection to each other, and above all to extend to tbe weak and tbe helpless
tne cmvairous protection or soldiers; and.
Whereas, We bail this association of ried soldiers and sailors as a gleam of light
penetrating the cloud of past prejudice.
which will serve to guide our course thronen
the present gloom to a future ot good feeling
and pro8per;tv; therefore, De it
Kesolved, ibat we now unite ourselves
into an association to be known as tbe Order of the Blue aud the Gray, of which or
der honorably discharged soldiers and sail ors, of either army or navy, of good charac er, may become members.
Here follows tbe constitution, which is
very like that of all similar organizations.
THE OBJECT OF THE ASSOCIATION.
As I said, I talked with the originators.
and I have told the motives and the devel
opment, as it was told me. Tho president,
Col. Beaird, a frail flower from the Illinois prairies, weighing some 400, I iudgfl, told
me that it was doing more coort In the way of humanizing feeling and efforts than he ever hoped, and its influence, not
only in Vicksburtf. but throuchou
the whole South would, he knew, bo last
ing and valuable. Already they were receiving letters ot inquiry from all parts of the country, requests for copies of their constitution and method cf organization, and he hoped the order would soon becom general throughout the Southern States. It
was net political in its motives, for all
shades of political opinion, from the ram
pant secessionist to tbe ampant radical were included in its membership; but its object was, as expressed in the preamble to tbe constitution, to preserve the peace and pood order of society, and f r mutual benefit and protection. I called upon Judge Speed, formerly of Detroit, and adjutant general of tbe nineteenth army corps during the war. He had lived in Vi ksburg bince its surrender to Gn. Grant, being adjutant general of this military department until reconstruction, "Tbe c )ut derate soUiers, not only In
Vicksburg, but all over tbe South, are will-
ganizaion a this,) mad I aru'now corresponding with people in every direction, who are enlisted in its interests and it is only a month old." ! '1 j. "Rut you don't admit everybody V VWe will admit every soldier from either army that has an honorable record and an honorable discharge." "Is it a secret organisation ?" , "No; our constitution vou bave lor publication; our objects are stated there, aud we will have nothing to bide from tbe public " "You say the association was formed for self-protection. Do you need protection?"
"There are a class oi politicians here who
took no honorable part In the war, but who are now. anxious to distinguish themselves by bei no: over-zealous in advocation tbe
claims and rights in the South. It is tbey
who stir up all this trouble. Tbey are
anxious to fignt, now the war is over, and as thev can't get anybody to fight, they oc
cupy themselves interfering with things and
people generally, it is against these tbinirs
we need protection we need to protect ourselves."

A NATIONAL ARMORY.
THE GOVERNMENT WORKS AT SPRINGFIET.P,
MAPS. BREECII-LOAPERS FIREP 28 TIMES A MINUTE THE LATEST IMPROVEMENTS IN ARMS AND ACCOUTREMENTS. A correspondent of tho Chicago Tribune,
writing from Springfield, Mass., gives
the following account of the United States armory in that city: The word "armory in the United States, designates an establishment for the manufacture and stornge of arms and ammunition. It there
fore includes an "arsenal," which denotes a place for storage and iepair only. In European uago these words exchange their meaning, and the word "arsenal" has the
more extended application. Thus we sneak
of the national armory of Springfield, and the national arsenals at Woolwich, Brest,
and London, referring to tho same class of
establishments. Having a few spare hours in Springfield, the other day, I visited tbe government shops, and gathered some
items of information. The armory comprises thirty-five buildings, situated on high
land, overlooking the city, and commanding
a fine view of the beautiful valley of the
Connecticut far to tbe south and west. The ground? contain 50 acres, well shaded by
New . England trees, and covered with
heavy . sward, intersected by neat walks and drivewajs, but with no evidence of care
beyond that required bv ordinary neatness,
There is also an outlot of 13 acres across the
street, with a solitary building on it, used
for the trial of arms. In these uph'mz times
of peace" only 700 men are employed occupying but a portion of the extensive shops built lor the accommodation of a much larger force. All hands are engaged in the manufacture of th9 Springfield musket and carbine of the model of 1S73 a neat arm, loading at the breech, and differing little from previous models, except in the diameter of tho bore, which is reduced to 1V100 of an inch. No repeaters are made, and eurely none are required if. as is

tnese, at rest, TWENTY-EIGHT TIMES TER MINUTE. . With such arms in their hands, no wonder the Prussians were "too many" for the
French. Being curious to know the weight
of the ball with which I am to be killed in the next great rebellion, I inquired cf the gentlemanly clerk. He "allowed" he wa? not posted, but referred mo to the masterarmorer. Across the hall, behind high iron screens, I found him, and obtained "quantities" of statistics; but the wejght of the ball was not in his department, and he confessed to innocence on that subject, but thought
the keeper of the arsenal would know. Down
the long,shady walk,paft tbe brass iiJ-p:und-ers, standing like sleeping bull-dog on tho great plats of green turf, 1 went to the
huge, cool, three-story arsenal, with its
baits so silout and contents so ominous. Among vast tiers and rows of coflin-like gun boxes, I discovered the polite keeper
overhauling some musket stocks. lie wa
very accessible on many items of information; but, as to "the weight of the ball."
any of the men in the shops could tell"
me. So I mounted the second and third stones, where, in countless rows, ,

Prussian war settled it that a muzzle-

needle-gun as the old flintlock is to tbe per
cussion, l-iach is as good as ever it was, but can not compete with the more modera in

and burnished, but with no more prospect cf
future usefulness than the democratic party.
A little side-chamber gave me a sight at
mauy a curious carbine," and rusty old
blunderbuss, and sabre bayonet instruc
tive relics of past ages, illustrating the slow progress by which mankind have attained
the present degree of trt in the manufacture
of
. WEAPONS OF WARFARE. "Down and out" from tlie lonesome, echo
lng halls and the sombre silence of tbe ar
eenal, I took my way to tbo noisy, clattering shops, with all their ingenious machinery.
Here tbe ready foreman "posted" me in his department; but, as to "tbe weight of the ball," be was "sure tbe dispenser cf ammunition would know, as be weighed out the powder, etc." Ho across the street I went to the one building on the 13 acres where they test the' arms, fcnt that ofiicer was not in; and my next and last resort was the commandant of the post. Col. James G. Benton, a bluff-looking officer of curt, direct address, and definite information. lie was deep in the mysteries ot contracts- and patents, but politely accorded me tbe long sought information. The weight of the ball for both carbine and musket is 405 grains (7,000 grains to tbe pound). Tbe carbine cartridge contains 55 grains of powder, and the musket cartridge 70 grains of powder, of sufficient strength to propel a ball 1,350 feet per second. Tha ammunition for the army is made chieMy at the government works, at Frankfort, near Philadelphia; and most of tbe heavy guns are cast at Pittsburg by contract. At Springfield are made nearly all of Undo Sam's muskets
rand carbine; and be has now on hand there
some 10,000 of tbe ltemington and o4,000of the Springfield pattern all breech-loading arms, and ready lor use. Here also is manufactured the trowel bayonet, recently adopted. , The fact, long since discovered by tho army, has at length dawned upon the authorities, viz.: that, in our moderu battles, tbe bayonet had become a nearly useless weapon! The form hag therefore been widened to that ot a long, large trowel; and with a shank fitted to the hand, it may be used, either with or without the musket, as a convenient tool for intrenching. It is said that a trained soldier
can, witu one of these, cover himseli in three miuutts; and thus a regiment have always at baud the means of turowing up a
breastwork.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY - MADM AS MI'RDERER ON THE BAM P AUK , IIS SUCCEEDS IU KILUNO HIMSELF. ' The North Vernon Sun, Oct. 1, gives the following bloody story: Within the , precincts of town, ou Saturday evening last, a
most shocking tragedy transpired. The
family of vYm. McOrath, an Irishman, con
slating in part of his wife, a ton if perhaps 14 years, and an elderly aunt, residing in the
western outskirts of town, became participants in the horrid and tragic drama, "where was euacted the frightful scene of death in a most gostly phase. The domicil consists of a log cabin composed'of two rooms, and the husband, who met his death within or near the house, provided for the wants of life by hard labor, and was generally regarded as a hard-working, honest man, though sometimes boisterous when in his enps. On Siitui day last he had leen absent from home during the day, and returning in tbe evenlog, (a." was stated to us by an . elderly lady member ot the family, who showed evidences of having suffered in the course of the melee), became enraged at bis wife from no just cause, and seizing a double-barrelled shot-frnn attempted to kill her - by striking with it clubbed, when our informant, at
tempting to screen the imperilled wife from harm, shared a portion of the blows, and was knocked down senseless and bleeding.
the; wife being as well severely injured. Tbo furious mn then seemingly tried to annihilate the whole laniily. The onslaught eommeneinsr in the house was continued, by the flight of the women, on the outside oi the cabin, whero the old man in his frenzy struck the bu;t of the gun so severely against tome immovable object as to break it off at the breech, at the same time discharging its contents into his abdomen,
PRODUCING INSTANT DEATH.
The wife and aunt having azain fled.
maimed and bleeding, into tbe house, and
8ec.ired tho enterance, to be safe from fur
ther harm, did not know of the shooting or
death of the unfortunate old man. and it
was only on Sunday morning, when a physician was summoned to set and bandage the arm of Mrs. McQrath, that the fact of his death was ascertained. He lay on the ground a corpse, with the broken gun by bis bide, and tbe unmistakable evidence of tbe immediate cause of his death made apparent by pools of blood and a ghastly
gun-shot wound. When we visited the scene of the sad affair. (Sunday morning) Coroner Swift and jury had just completed their examination of .the case, and in tbe course of the day rendered a verdict of death from gon-shot wounds produced by parties unknown to the jury. Thisdves the matter a little different phase, and will ot course call for a more rigid examination into its details. Opinions widely differ as to the mode of the old man's "taking oft" The deceased was a man of ovor fifty years of age, a member of the Catholic church, and was interred on Sunday evening. The wife is conrired to bed from severe brnises and a bn ken arm, whilst the old lady is suffering from severe contusions on her bead, body and tiands. Altogether this is one ot tbe most shocking affrays or tragedies that has occurred within our knowledge lor many a day, and deserves tbe clcsest investigation by the prr oer authorities, that it may transpire if guilt attaches thereto.
