‘BEECHER’S VERSION. = He Claims to be Innocent, but doesn’t “'Know how toProveit. ; MR. BEECHER'S STATEMENT. ' i - It is plain te me now that'it was not until Tilton had fallen into disgrace and had lost his salary, that he thought it necessary to assail me with charges which he pretended to have in his mind for six months.: The domestic offence which he. alleged was very easily put aside; but yet insucha way as to keep my feelings stirred up, in order that I might through friends be used to extract from Mr. Bowen $7,000, the amount of the claimin dispute between ‘them, Mpr.: Tilton signed' an agreement of peace and concord, not drawn by me but aecepted by me as sincere. The Golden Age had been started; he had the capital to carry it on’ for-a while; he was sure that he was to head a great social revolution.— With returning prosperity he had apparently no griefs which could not be covered by his signature to the artieles of peace. Yet the changes in that covenant, made by him before signing it, and represented to me as necessary merely to relieve him from the imputation of having originated and eirculated certain old and shameless slanders about me, were really made, as now appears, toleave him free for futurk operations upon me and against me. S foi :

So ‘long as he was, or thought he | was, on the road to new success, his conduct toward me was as friendly as he knew how tomakeit. His assumption of superiority and magnanimity, and his patronizing manner, were trifles at which I could afford to smile, and which I bore with the greatest humility; since ‘I still retained sthe profound impression miade upon me, as explained in the ; following narrative, that I had been the cause of overwhelming .disaster to him, and that his complete restoration of public standing and household happiness was A REPARATION JUSTLY REQUIRED of me, and the only one which I could make. I labor under great disadvantages in making a 'statement. My memory of states of mind is clear and tenaeious—better than my memory of dates and details—during the four troubled years, in all of which I have been singularly burdened with public labor, having escablished and conducted The Christian Union; delivered courses of lectures; preached before the Theological Seminary of Y ale College; written the “Life of Christ;” delivered each winter lyeeum lectures in all the north and west. All these duties, with the care of a great church and its outlaying schools and chapels, : and the miscellaneous bnsiness -‘which falls upon clexgymen more than upon any,other public man, I have kept in regard; and now, with the necessity of‘explaining actions and letters resulting from complex influences, apparent at the time, I find myself in a position where I know my innocence WITHOUT 'BEING ABLE TO PROVE IT with detailed explanations. I am one upon whom trouble works inwardly, making me, outwardly silent but reverberating in the chambers of my soul ; and when at length I dospeak, it is a pent up flood, and pours , without measure or moderation. My relations with Tilton continued to be most friendly until 1866, when the violent assault made upon me by Mr. Tilton in 7he Independent, on account of my Cleveland letter, and the temporary discontinuation of the publication of my sermons in.that paper, broke off my connection with it. Although Mr. Tilton and T remained personally on good terms, yet there ‘ WAS A COOLNESS between us in all matters of politics. Our social relations were very kindly, and as late as 1868-69, at his request, I sat to Page some 50 times for a portrait. ) It was here that I first met and talked with Moulton, whose wife was a‘menaber of Plymouth Church,though he was not & member, or even a regular attendant. During this whole period, I never received from Mr. Tilton, or any .member of his family, the slightest:hint that there was any dissatisfaction with my familiar relations to his household. As late, I think, as the winter of 1869, when going upon: an extended lecturing tour, he said, “I wish you would look in often, and ( SEE THAT LIBBY IS NOT LONESOME, or does not want anything,” or words to that effect. Never, by sign or word, did Mr. Tilton complain of my visits to his family, until after he began to fear that the Independent would be taken from him; nor did he break out into violence until on the eve of dis- | possession from both the papers—the Independent and the Brooklyn' Union. So far from supposing that my presence and influence was alienating Mrs. Tilton from her fawily relations, I thought, on the contrary, that it was. giving her strength and encouraging Rar o ' e it .. HOLD FAST UPON A MAN & - ~eévidently %sliding into dangerous associations, and liable to Be immersed by unusual self-conceit.” T regarded Mr. Tilton as in a very eritical period of his life, and used to think it fortunate that he had good home influences about him. During the late years of -our friendship, Mrs, Tilton spoke very "mourp-fully to me about‘the tendency ;of hrer husband to great laxity of doc‘trine. in religion and morals.. She .gave meto understand that he denied the divinity of Christ, the inspiration of the seriptures, and most of the articles of the orthodox faith, -+« ° GETTING' DOWN TO HARD PAN.

Ile feared to retdin him longer even as a contributor to his paper. I spoke strongly to Bowen and advised that Tilton bé dismissed. I have no doubt that my adwvice precipitated his dischargd. Tilton extorted a confession from his wife, and sent Moulton for me. IHe came intensely excited, and demanded that T go at onee to his (Moulton’s) house. I went, uneonscious of the nature of the storm that was to burst upon me. The door was locked, and Tilton proceeded to read an oration, the gist of. ‘which was that I had made '’

I gave him the paper and he left. Shortly after this Moulton called again and took down in his own way areport of our conversation. e said he would use it as a recenciliation.— At the close he did not ask, me to read if, but only that I would sign.lt. Not knowing what he had written, I, at first, declined, but on his insisting that the paper would have greater weight thus, I took the pen and indicated that I had committed the document to his care and signed my name. I never knew just what he had written. One day I asked him for the memorandum, as he had promised to return it.- lle looked confused and said he had destroyed it long ago. Some time after .this I met Tilton at Moulton’s house, and expressed my sorrow at the disasters-which had come on his family. I expressed contrition at the part I had taken in proeuring his dismissal from! the Independent. At Moulton’s solicitation, Tilton cleared up, we shook hands and agreed to be friends. He invited me to visit him, and on several occasions spoke enthusiastically of his wife’s and my excellent behavior. - : L el - — : “State Temperance Convention. .

National Banks. ' {From the Loganspori Sun.]

The Republican papers and-stump-ers are urging great objections to that part of the Dempecratic platform demanding the repeal of the national banking law. But not'onelogical reason has yet been assigned why such a law, should not pé repealed; on.the contrary, there are many reasons why this law should be stricken from the gtatute books. The law has in effect built up a monied aristocracy in the country that is absolutely alarming, and its effects have been anything but beneficial to the masses. :

These banks number about 1,700, with a eapital amounting in the aggregate tofour hundred million dollars, which our magnanimous Congress has, granted them, without any expense on their part. True, the Government holds -as collateral security Government bonds, justas one neighbor halds a mortgage on the farm of another neighbor for moniesloaned. -Into the vaults of these banks the people pay annually twenty-fouk million dollars in gold as interest. 'We freely admit this interest would have to be paid if there were no national banks, or if they were retained by the proper owner in his own possession. But we hold it to be unjust to exact this interest from the people for the bonds, and compel them to pay interest on national bank notes besides, which everybody knows they do whenever they negotiate a loan from these banks. It is vampire like, sucking the life-bleod of the people in two ways, and for this, among innumerable other reasons, we demand the repeal of the law. . It is a huge monopoly, which has the power at any time to create a panie. A few unprincipled, adventurous capitalists may at any time 'when they conceive that money is most needed, lock up the curreney and thus bring about a finanecial {:risis and distress, and involve the ruin of the lionest and unsuspecting merchant and dealer, who isrmade the unsuspecting vicetim of a combination which he neither foresaw nor could control. A system of currency, therefore, which permits the banks to oppress the merchant and dealer, and unsettle the business of the country, is clearly defective; and should be repealed: ‘ : ~ We protest, therefore, to the continuance of a law which gives the power to any man or set of men to be able at will to control the monetary affairs of the country by combinations. It is the business of the Government not to sustain or uphold monopoelies, but as far as it can to put them down. Moreover, the law places in the hands of the national bahks of the country the power to control the election of President and members of Congress—to influence cabinets and dictate the policy of the Government.

. Again, the law makes a discrimination belween the man of wealth and the man of no means. © A party with $50,000 may invest it in Government bonds, thus to begin with, his wealth’ is placed far beyond the reach of the tax-gatherer. By placing these bonds in a Government depository he is ‘entitled to #545,000 in what are denominated black-backs, or, national bank notes. The bonds yield him annually $3,000 in gold as interest, while with his $45,000 in black-backs realizes in interests, discounts; &e., at least $4,500 more. In .ten years he will have made, in interest alone, a sufficiency to redeem his Government bonds.—. Thus, in ten years hé has accumulated the enormous sum of’ $125,000. . The advantages thus given to the man of wealth is an incontrovertable reason why the law should be repealed, andgreenbacks issued in their stead. Give us greenbacks direct to the people, or, if the exigeney demands it, let there be banks of deposit established at convenient- points, and if interest is demanded for the use of such currency, it will go directly to the Government and aid in the payment of Government expenses, and not go into the pockets of individuals. Equity and justice imperatively demand that the law originating national banks be repealed.— To this measure we must unequivocally give our assent. : , The Disconx-agelnelit of Emigration. by the German Government. It.seems that” the obstacles put in the way of the emigration of its peo‘ple by the Imperial Government of Germany, are partially due to a novel theory invented by the learned Dr. Engel, Director of the Prussian Statistical Bureau. The doctor divides the life of the manual laborer into three periods: Tirst, fifteen years of unproductive youth ; second,fifty years of work; third, the remaining years, of unproductive senility. He then proceeds to lay down the proposition that during the productive period the man has three duties to perform: First, he must pay: the expense incurred by parents and others during the juvenile period; second, he must satisfy his daily wants, and maintain his productive power; third, he must produce a surplus ‘fund for sustenance during the period of old age. - ‘ The expense of carrying one (German individul through the juvenile period, Dr. Engel computes at 750 ‘thalers. That is the amount of money the man owes to society when he reaches the age of puberty, and which society expects him to répay by the labor of his muscle. Now it follows that if he runs awgy to America at this time he defrands Germany of 750 thalers. Multiply the «numbers :of Germans who have alréady gone to. America by this sum, and ' you have: the enormous total of %1,750,000,000 worth of labor which Germany has ‘been deprived of by this pernicious. emigration. It is an appalling disCOVELY. | et mme o

. 'The Eighth Resolution. - This resolution- of the democratic State platform declares; for ‘causes given, in favor of the repeal of the law of February 27th, 1873, commonly known ag the Baxter bill. The eauses which led the convention to so declare, are: .. That it has proved a failure; that it is in many respects of doubtful constitutionality ; - that-it is no more efficient in restraining the evils of intemperance than a judic¢ieus and well regulated license law. ' Are the statements true, and if true, are they potent enough to make a change 'desirable? That -thef»ﬁrst'-'pro"pogition is trueiis proved by the aets and declarations of the t,emperanc@, people themselves, for some time-after the law went into operation, they almost. entirely dropped it as‘an aid in the work of temperance and set“on foot a proscription of all who did not practice as well as preach ardent teetofalism. Numerous sociefies and eommunities and orders, ‘passed 'stringent resolutions that they would patronize no man who drank even .a glass of beer —that they would vote for no man for office who drank : intoxicating dnks. e G s

‘ln many prosecuttions the liquor seller came out unharmed in . person or purse, and the endeavor put forth for the.prevention of permits being granted before the Commissioners ‘in this county, proved utterly fruitless. One clause: has passed through the Supreme Court and been declared veid. The lower courts have, here and there, rendered decisions adyerse to other clauses, and other portions of the law are held by many sound men to be of doubtful constitutionality. So far as our observation goés, as much liquor and other'intoxicating beverages are sold and drank as before the passage of the law. Nor have the evils resulting from intemperancoybeen reduced to any appreciable extent. Also, only last week in. this place, “the people of Bartholomew county, in public meeting assembled;” declared in “favor of such amendments (to the Baxter law) as will make it more efficient.,” = This declaration by its friends necessarily carries the admission of the lameness of the law. - "‘These facts support thedeclarations of the eiglit resolution.— Being true, as we believe, that the law does' not meet the end” intended—restraining the evils of intemperance—wisdom certainly ‘dietates the use of some other'agent to accomplish that DULDOSe. 2o o i s

The reason that the present law is not as efficient as would be, or-as have been, stringent licenselaws, is'that it is too ultra, its aim being prohibition. All laws depend for their enforcement upon the favor of the people, and the people, in most part, are conservative —lliberal-—on the question of temperance. ~Radieal temperance advocates will not acknowledge that a great majority of the people. are gonservative, that is, anti-prohibitionists, but it is nevertheless true, as every State election where this guestion was passed upon, will testify. .- It-is the part of wisdom, in framing laws, to put none upon the statute book that cannot by reason of the adverse sentiment of community, be enforced.. When by a mistaken judgment this is done, the error should be retrieved as quickly as possible, by expunging. the dead statute. Tence, the Democracy in its wisdom, says the Baxter bill, having proved abortive, having failed of its purposes, should be expunged, and a system inaugurated: that, will and can heentorced o

* There is a 'pecuniary reason, also, why the license system should be establisne(}. Before tlie passage of the Baxter law, the income derived from liquor licenses amounted to near sllo,< 000 a year. * By terins of the license law then in force, this went to the common school: fund of the State. The Baxter law left this amount in the hands of the whisky seller, and thas the welfare of the schools was subordinated to an experiment in prohibition, which the experience of this and other Sta,ﬁ(es ought to have taught the: framer of the law ias impracticable. The retailing of lquots is a profitable ‘business to the retailer, and he'should be taxed for the privilege, and thusin some degree made to assist in keeping up the educational system of the State. A “judicious” license law is what the people want, and what a’ great majority of the people will sanction: =By judicious is meant, g law that will restrain the dealer to the utmost extent commensurate with the popular idea of:- freedom, and hedee him within the provisions of the law: by the most powerful. argunient that can be made to man, monéy—a law not ultra enough to condemnitself in the minds of conservative. people~—for this is the larger class—and yet one that will restrain in the greater degree the evils arising from the traffic. Such.a law the Demaocracy have always supported, and declare themselves still in favor of. And it can be shown that the license system is more powerful in its restraints and, subserves the interests of téemperance to a greater degree than prohibition’ does, —Columbus Democrat. - - |

Harding, editor and ' proprietor of the Indianapolis Herald, shot Sol. Moritz, a prominent merchant of this city, this afternoon, under the following circumstances: . These gentlemen have been warm friends, and very intimate in their social relation. Moritz,who is a Hebrew of about 40 years of age,-and married, took advantage of this intimaey, and succeeded in seducing the daughter of Mr. Harding, a young lady of about ‘eighteen. This seduction was aceomplished in March last, and improper relations have been maintained by the ‘parties since that time. : ; - The young lady was brought to a confession of these facts by her: father last eveming, and overwhelmed with , remorse and shame, sought to take her own life by taking opium, and, it is" thought, repeating the dose this morning. : ; : About one o’cloc{( this. afternoon Mr. Harding went in search of a physician, and while passing down street ‘met Moritz, immediately firing at him, shooting five times, and then passed ‘on down the street. B Mr. Moritz was ftdken to his residence, where a medical examination proved that but two of the shots had hit Lim—one' shattering the left el-= bowj and the othet passing directly through the lung and lodging in the chest. .It was thought the latter would prove fatal, as he spit blood quite freely for some time; but at this hour (10 o’clock) he is resting quietly, and it is thought will recover. Miss Harding died about 3 o’clock this-afternoon. i , i

. Mr. Harding was admitted to bail on. $lO,OOO bonds this evening, to await the result of Moritz’s wounls.

- The public feeling is very strongly in sympathy with Mr. Harding.
