BROOKLYN, ANg, 35, 1874, In my Inat lottor I had described Brooklyn up to tho point of addressing myself to such ro- marks o4 are pertinont to the Boschor matter, Tho absenco of heads of familics from Brook- Iyn all day gives o peculiar opportunity for the females, and thooe males who can moko occupa- tion or leisure of a Braoklyn day, to form TIE AOCIAL LIFE OF THE CITY, Tho clorgy iy thus pormnnontly tntrenchod in a burgh whero tho religious lifo isns active as in Hartford, or any old Calvinistio quarter of Connoctiout, or any Baptist stroughold of Rhods Island, I'he merchant, meautimne, in pursuing his notivo enjoymonts and masculing career ncross the river. Thero ho hides his socrots, plays bis gamo of poker after lunch at Dolmonico's, and, in tho tortuous labyrinths of commerco, law, or brolerngo, conceals the grent or little roalitios of bis lifo. Whon ho has roturnod homo ot ovening to tho echoing streets of this groat divan or oloister, ho takes up & difforent lifo in ovory aspect. 1io has come from!New York to New England; ho has stoppod across s huudred years in fiftoen minutos. Io is out of tho at~ mosphero of rich Knickerbockers and modern sharpers, out of the movembent of eargoos and customs-ladings, ‘out of the tomptations which beset tho rich by day, avd he is in o slmplo, stralght, over-intollectualized, subjectivo gocioty. Hero the wife and daughter rule, A thousand boarding-houso tables oxchango the nows of Now York with the gossip of Broollyn, In many » movsion tho topic of tho morchaut, surrounded by his fomily, 18 tho propor modo of domestio life, tho mothod of educativg childron, tho proacher’s pastoral round, the divinity of Christ, tho soul of man, Hero Vandorbilt and Stowart, Ilave- moyor and Twood, abdicato thoir crowns and tho mitred hoads of Boocher and Fulton, Buding- ton, Beudder, and Btorms, appoar inatond, In this socloty Mr. Bocchor hias been for years THE POTENTIAL PERBONALITY, tho Calvin and Rousscan. Ho brings no burden for the merchant’s roleased oncrgics, Iis talk is cheorful. Hisstop is ringing, Thore is mirth in hiseye, oxporionco on his lip, a touch of elo- quence, an invitation to elovaled volatility. Ho crowna richios with his company, and gives gon- erosity to domoatio talk, Tho wifo's consolor, tho daughter's confidante, the son’s fuvorito, tho husband's almoner and friond, no wonder that ho has clasped all tho threads of sacial afiluonco; and his power oxtonds from the Man- hattan Club, tho Union Leaguo, and tho Christiau Association rooms, in Now York, to tho innor consciousuess of Brooklyn life, ' This oditor's wife ho buried; that banlor ho marriod; his was the spoech that turned tho iusue which put yonder man in Congross; ho was involved. with tho groat fermentations of tho country which resultod in socinl rovolutious ; regiments wont to war under bis benodiction; ho ruised the flag on the ruins of Sumtor. DBrooklyn in alt its_comps foels Beechor like n tomporal and spiritual potentate. Where bos sy Protostant socloty had euch a Bishop? And why Las such o man for three yeara past Leon waiking on tho ragged edgo of dospair? No wonder ihat such o diffusive influeuca scoms likely to overwholm the youth in yondor plain cottage, who hus come forward, like David \\'izh'}\lfi sling, to challengo the mortality of this giant, T'ho intoxieated sousibilitics of a justice-seok- ing pooplo are unablo to renlizo the cquulity of this conflict, It is o moral clinllomo on tha ileld of rights. It isnot s question of whether wo cun afford to loio Becchor, but whether wo ean afford to filvn up our tribunals, It is no issuons to Tilton's wouluess, but s to Beecher's tros- pass. If but one man suffer, the principle is tho samo: 1Is home without s suseguard 7 Is & mau's wife bis own, Ol MY LORD CARDINAL'S? ‘Whon.they buried Willism the Conqueror in his Normun eathodral, and nll bis knights. stood thero in the power of their conquest, a poor mun's voico was liftod ou the outskirts of tho erowd, commanding that, boforo he bo laid in holy ground, his helrs mako restitution for u fleld Lo onforead from that vassal.

Was it tho act of o rrioul and & knight to creop into s houne- Liold and tako posdession of tho hearth? Was it tho act of un inspired Psnlmist to corrupt tho womn, and then sot the husband in the front of battle to ba slnin by Brother Bowen? It i not onsy for tho publio mind to tako up a matter of rights wheroe overy subtor fuge and ap- plinnce hus heen ueod to’divors tha iemno, to ko Mr, Wlton meauer than ho csu bo, and Mr, Boochior more usoful than ko fa. **Why dooy Lo want hin wifo to Jivo with him if sho dow’t want t02™ Uhat is not the presont ques- tion.
