MMr, Beoohor, whilo seated at his onse, talked glibly and Jaughod heartilyat times, Mr. Beecher intimated to tho reportor that his frionds mi~"t relyon his dlscretion and his truth, It w.s ouough that he had declared Til- ion’s charges false for tho presont. Ho was prepared to admit that his sky was not as olear a8 it ought to bo, Thera wore hazy clouds in tho horizon, and theso darkened siightly toward tho zonith, but tho sun of truth would, in its own good time, burst forth and dissipato them. He was preparing his rofutation of all the charges that ind beon mado sgainst him., Ho felt strong in bis own heart.. Ho folt that ho bad dono wrong fo no one. Ho might liave boen inconsiderato, even Indisorcet ; that camoof his impulsivonsss, \Whon his slory bad been told—when his plain, nnvarnishod story biad been preparsd and given to the public~he would calmly await what 1t, and more particular- 1y his true frionds, had to say; and by it he was quite prepared to 8tand or fall. Ho felt himselt innacontof intontion to wrong any ono, and, with that fooling overprosent in his hoart, Lie was pre- pared to come boldly beforo the world and battle down the army of scandnl-mongory. — THE LIBEL SUIT, Bpecial Disvateh to The Chigago Triduna, A TALK WITR TILTON. Nriw Yorg, July 80,—DIr. Tilton wss encoun- tered on the strect to-day, and was evidently in an agitated and uneasy mood. Whon spoken to he was absorbed in his own thoughts, and por- fectly oblivious to the fact that from the vari- ous gtores in the vicinity he was observed by shop-kespers and customers alike, and that pas- sers-by lingercd to look st bim curiously. BIr. Tilton socmod anxious to direct romark to tho question of the mottve of his arrest by Gaynor, and suggested that eomo lawyer wae bohind Mr. Goynor in this movement. The reporter eaid, in reply, thinking be referred to Mr. Tracy or Mr. Shosrman, who ars the conusel of tho Committes and Mr, Beechor, that ho bad not heard such suggestion bofore, and though & few persons had suspocted collusion botween himself and Mr. Gaynor, fow orsons now believed that eithor the frionds of Ir, Boochor or Mr. Tiltou had suggested a pro- ceodivg which was alroady & farco. Mr, Tilton said that he had hoon to Now York to learn, if nousible, from frienda there, information as to Gaynor. Ho had obtained no evidencs, but was satintied that the friends of Br. Beechor had in~ atigated liis arrest, EX-JUDGE J. D, MORRIS, the counsel of Mr. Tilton, is the natural antag- aniet of Mr, Tracy in_all the great trials that have come up in Brooklyn for yenrs past.

Reportor—Hsa ho ever evinced, either by word or maunar, vindietivenaus or malice sgainat Henry \Ward Beecher ? ; Mr. Carpentor—No. I never knew & man to boar go much. Ono of tho editors of the Eagle told mo that Theodore Tilton had suffered mora than any man sinco Josus Christ. Tilton told me tho night that ho put the Bacon letter to rreu that ho would rather tnke thirty-nino [asbios in tho flosh, aud draw blood every time, than lisve printed this thing amainst Mr, Boccher. 'Litton furthor snid: ‘‘Mr, Beecher haa loid opon his bregst and told me to smite. Hia pleading faco I8 beforo me now.

Iis intimato fricuds domanded that he should doit, They told Mr. Tiltonthat if Lie allowed such charges as Dr. Bacon had made coucerning him to pays unrotuted, ho would for- feit the respect of pvorybody. Mr. Tilton asked me if I would take his letter to Dr. Bacon. I #aid I would, Atmy requoest he nccompanied me to New Havon, a4 I thought Dr. Bacon, upon reading that lottor, would wish to nuk questions which I couldu't answor., Mg, 'Hilton slually consented to go with me. Dr. Dacon raceivod uy with courtosy and kindnoys. M, Lilton said ; Dr. Bacou, I have conto to you with my state- ment. You have reprosonted me bofora tho world as » bad man.

Curpentor. Mr, Johnson resd the statoment, and tho following conversation ensued: Q.—Do you know anything of Mr, Carpentex's connoction with the scandal, and the time wheu itbegan? A.—Yes, it bogan long bLofore the time he namos—May, 1873, Ho came to mo about it-as early, Ithink, ag the lattor part of 1871 or tho boginning of 1872, Ho was a volan~ teor meddler and partisan of Mr. Tilton, and heard of bis gossiping on tho subject in varions quarters, . Ho says ho was first brought actively into the onso by Mr. Beocher, but he had been actively io It for at loast a year boforo tho timo Lra names, and acomed to eujoy nothing olee go much 88 tuuning sbout the city and talking to poopla on tho subjact. Ho Lsd dono moro, 1 l{n‘m)(, than any otber man, eave Mr. Tilton himkolf, to foster and propagato tho scandal, and has from the first boon o partisnn rather than a true frioud ot Mr. Tilton, conktanily lending hiwself to tho plans devisod by the Intéer to keop the scandal from dying out. Q.~Did you eay in your teatimony beforo the Committes that Mr. Tilton Liad never, in conver- sation with yoi, accused Ars. Tillon of adul- tery? A.—ILdid not. Iwas not interrogated on that point, as the oflicial roport of tho testimony must show. I wus askod only to say what offense Mr. Tilton chaygod Mr. Beechor with in his juterviow with Alr. Bowen, Doo, 25, 1870, and 1 unid that ho simply cbargod him on that ocea- sion avith having made improper advances to hig wifo, which ghe resisted, On othor ocensions ho used langusge which I undoerstood to imply somathing worse than this; but I donot romem- bor that hio over usod the word " adulters.” Ho told mo that ho bnd forgiven Mr, Doochor, and soaled bis forgivenoss with & kiss; and yot every now and then e spokoe of 3ir. Bocolier ‘tome in tha most opprobrions language, ocelling him more than once a 'damued sconndral,” evinging & frightful bittornesy aud malignity. Mo told 80 many and coutradictory storios of the offouso ns to awalien & slrong Huspicion in my mind, nt times, that ho was oither orazy or that the sean- dal had little or no foundation. Q.—What is your opinon as to Mr, Tilton'spro- fossad reluctance to publish the scaidal? A—I Dbollove it to be entirely simulated. ‘There is no posibility of explainiug his couduct for tho lant three yenrs without supposing him to have chor- {shed the purposs to make the scandal public in #uch a forin ay wonld be likely to injuro if not to destroy Mr. Boochor. Ab every point whero the public soomed to bo forgatting it io always nd some ounning dovice for roviviug It; aud at every point ho hypoeritienlly sot up the plea that it was e, Boecher who conipelled bim to spoak, Hls troachory and porfidy, on his own showing, are simply indokeribablo. The ecolosiastical council wag the rosult of his rerndy in propa- gating & seandal which he had solomnly pro- fossed to forgivo. All the donunciations of his conduct by Dr, Bacon and dthers, of which ho complainod, wore simply and solely tho fruil of bis own deliborato treachiory, Ife know that Mr, Beachier had no responsibiiity, or shadow of ro- sponeibility, for what Dr, Bacon had writton on the subject, and that it was not witbia his prov- Ince or}mwcr to silence him. .~1lns Mr. Ourpontor roported correctly what you enid to him in July, 18737 A.—Ilo has not, M, Carponter told mo'ou that occasion that Mr. Tilton hiad deseribed Mr. Beecher's offenso to him as nothing but wn fwproper sdyance Lo Men.
