BAYMOND'S REMARKS are the followmg: “Iam the only man, by.s concurrence of circumstances, in Plymouin Chaurch, or in the United States, to-dsy, not & member of ths Committee, and not & lawyar be- fore tho Commitiee, who happena to kuow mi} abont it.” Frnxcis D, Mourzox, y WHAT B W. EAYMOND SAYS OF TILTON. New Yoms, Aug. 20.—Prof. Rosstter A. course of his address “I am the only man, by s concurrenco of circumstances, in Plymouth Chareh, or in tho United States, to-day, not a member of the Committee, and not a lswyer beforo the Committes, who hoppens to know all about it. What is the evidence against Honry Ward + Beecher in this case? It conaiats of the alleged. confession of Beecher to Tilton and. Moulton ; of the alleged confession of Mra. Tilton, verbal- 15, to soveral persons ; of the alleged confeseion of Mrs. Tilton in writing ; and, finally, of letters brought forward of Beecher. Thatis all. Now what is the story of the confession of Mrm. Til- ton to her husband? It is this: That, ot the 3d of July, 1870, she made a distinct confession of her criminshrelations with Heory Wazd Beecher toher hushand. He was, of course, VERY INDIGNAST WITH BEECHER on the 3d of July, 1870, and I should think he would have becn ail the moro indignant that ho conld not convince his wife that adultery with & minister was wrong. That he was very indignant on that day is shown by the fact that the 3d of having boen n Bunday, Mr. Tilton went over to tho offico of the Ji , on the next day, which waa ondsy, snd wrote an indignant passige sbout H. W. Beecher, which was subsequently read in proof, and which ap- pesred in the paper of Tnursdsy of thst week. Itisin an arsicle called *Preachers and Theo- Togiana.’ s * The ovidence before the Committee shows that in the sutumn of 1870 Mrs. Tilton went away on & visit, and thas while she was thera lottors passed betwoen her acd her husband. This i the time whon, accarding to Mr. Tilton, she was away and weiting to koow what would be hiit magranimous decision concerning her fu-— tre faco. " At that time, according to’ the evi- dence before the Committee,—ovidence from a source entirely distinct from Ars. Tilton, and entirely unimpeachable,—Mrs. Tilton - WEOTE TO HIX A PLEADING. besgin;: him to pat away from his room and Iascivions pictures, and w0 abandon the so- ciety of evil and abandoned women. She wrato. that letter with toars and prayers, praying tho whole night before she sent it. It went out, and | she waited four days for the reply, in & com- mingled agony of euspenso and hope. “Befors the reply came, she said to her friend : *When that letter comes, go up-stairs and read it with mo. ‘L am sure God will anawer my prayer and give me back my busband and savo him from his evil course.’ ‘This friond had soen the letter that went; and was to see ths letter which was to come. * Mro. Tilton went np-stairs, snd when the postman came with the letter, her friend, not haviog the same firm faith in Theodare's re- pomance, sent the létter up and waited awhilo before following it, in order that she should not herelf intrude upon the resding. After a fow minutes, she went up and knocked at Mrs. Til- ton's roam, and received no answer.

From Our Gun Correspondent. BrooxLyN, Aug. 15, 1874, The statement of Frank Moulton, sad tns ad- vanced position be is now preparod to take upon it, have £o well substantiated the dispatch I sen you more than two weeks 8go, that I can afford to dismiss the great number of willfal orignorant censors and skeptics upon thnt subject. It is of loss account to me that I mas enabled to chtain tho information noeded than that I was the in- strumont of compelling Mr. Fraacis,D, Moul ton to : PRODUCE HIS WHOLE STORY and reliove Mr. Theodore Tilton from cowardly eocial and editorial assaults. Mr. Monlton had prepared, under logal advice, to abandon the field at s critical time, leaving Mr. Tilton .thera in Brooklyn alone amongst the wild beasts. Ona | of these quadrupeds bad already begun to in- veot Greek words, such as koprophagous, to ex- hibit the invenior's learning and yoracity ; the same creaturo wanted me produced in Now Yori before tho Grand Jury, whero his master islikely to aprear himself for libel without incentive. : Bat lct them all go. Tho news is the nowaman's vindication. If o man travels into the heart of Africa, and, at the ritk of his life, finds-a loet traveler there, he is received in the lost mau's country, at & publie dinner, with the cool inquiry ss to whether ha ,isn't a liar. If, st home, he penetrates the jungle of some social mystery, aud releases tha truth from error, they bave a way of calling him “brilliant.” Pat that is an old subterfuge: to praise some minor quality of 8 man, in order to depress any other quality he might bavo of moro account at that junctare. Pardon me if I do ' my detractors this eufiicient revenge: I had earned myself tho equality to paes the keyhole * and #it at the council-board, becanse [ never wagted timo oo mere envy, and in sn nnright- eous cause never leaned toward tho powerfal. It ! i3 Mr. Beocher's misfortune that I was not ablo I: to pierce his phalanx of lawyers, and take tho truch at his dictation. He is the brilliant and unrelisble writer in this controversy, and I pass over to him the compliments of the pres A reasonable tenacity of public of on to & { hieh repatation 18 wortliy of a high-minded pso- ple. it an unreasonable idolacry of & populsr map, which refuses evidence, and is ot above libeling hi iznocent viszitas. is unworthy of an iutelligent age.
