MRS, TILTON’S LETTERS TO HER HUSBAND, From Our Oun Correspondent, * ‘New Yonx, Aug. 10, 1674, In Theodore Tilton’s sworn atatoment he said that boforo his family waa brokon and ruined ha had what all his friends and neighbors wora ac- oustomed to call * an ideal home.” Brs, Tilton, intho statoment and tostimony which sho put torth by the advico of NMr. Bocchor's attornoys, pictared herself a8 sufforing ton years of misery in this homo,—dating back to 1800 : saying that .she had beon Ill-treated by her husband, kept without food and fire, lockod in ber room for days togethor, oto. Judge 8, D. Morris, whols Thoodors Tilton's couusel, pronouncod theso statomonts puroly fctitious and malicious, being nolther truo as statod by Mrs. Tilton, nor having apy color of truth whatever. In proof of Judge Morrig' assortton ho exhibited to the corrospond- oot of Tur Omicaco Tnsvone the voluminous oorrespondunce befwoon Mr. and Mra, Tilton, covoring the vory poriod of tho lattor's alloged - migery, and permitted our correspoudent to make oxtracts of such pnssages a8 he pleagod. Tucee oxtracts are horo given, and more remorkebla lottors we have nover seen botween busband aud wife,—~partiou- “larly to bo writton, not in tho hey-day of youth and courtship, but in tho sobor years of middle life, and aftor ten or fifteen yoars of marringo, Theso lottora are the testimony which frs. Til- tou givos to tho oharactor of her home boforo 8hie hind nuy occasion to eubmit euch tostimony to the manipulation of lawyers bout on crushing hior husband for tho sake of eaving Mr, Beochor. Her statements in theso lottors are uttorly irro~ concilable with ber recont oriticiem on hor hus- band’s treatment of hor. Judgo Morris has beon for soveral days past solicltous to publish those lottors in the Brooklyn pross, but Mr. Tilton has withhold his permission on tho ground, firat, that such & publication soomed a violation of good taste, and that no snch testimony was noeded in hig bobalf in the community in whick Lo Jived. Bat Judgo Morris snys that Mra, Eliz- aboth Tillon’s publishod tostimony has boen shapod with o doliberate purposo to affcot pub- lio opinion by croating a falge issue sgainst tho husband, and he (Judge M.) thereforo insiuted on giving Mra, Tilton's truo tostimony, in her lotters, to conuteract her manufaoturod tostl- mony beforo the Committes.
