The ‘subject was i by these entiemen informally, Messrs.

They rep- resented that the education of colored children is conti it upon the support of white schools; that while a magnificent new building is re Sonn) in Georgetown, their own school building is little better than a barn, and that the passage of the bill the Senate in its present shape might deprive them of funds for an indefinite period; anc that by an act of Congress approved July 1866, it is distinctly specified that the colored schools are to h their proportion of al) expenditures for white schools.

The steadily in<teasing activity in the pro- duce trade in Uyis iclty ie the pant five years is @ matter of gy nee to our citizens. For many years, this branch of trade was confined eas to market hucksters of limited usines*, capacity, whose chief alm was to make all they could out of the countrymen on Oe hand and the consumers on the other. On account of their selfish notions as to the Pagnner of doing business, no uniform sye- ‘sem of pices could ever be upon, and ev one was for himself. grow! ulation, together with the increased tes for transportation by steamboat and rail- road, has drawn men of more liberal ideas into this traffic, and now there are weaith: and respectable firms engaged in this busi- ness, the «i of their shipping operations taking in the states of ss. aryland, West Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, and some of the western states.

The membership con- templates only those engaged in jobbing commission business, and all retail dealers are excluded.

Meetings are to be held every Thursday for the transaction of business, a general interebange of views, and to correct and make up the official price current, which is prepared and submitted by the committee on quotations, and based on actual and legiti- mate transactions, and not a figure in the list can be altered without a two-thirds vote of the members. It will thus be seen that the prices promulgated will be reliable, and 1 chants and shippers can base their oper tions on it.

The report was adopted. he special committee, to which was re- ferred the matter of charges on the moving of four, reported a list of roles, as follows: Drayage, nts; cooperage, 1 cent; storage and labor, 2 cents; insurance, 1 cent, and commission, 25 cents. Some debate followed, some of the mem- bers taking the ground’ that 7 cents was too high for drayage, but the report was adopted. Mr. J. Miller, from the committee on quotations, submitted a list. which was con- sidered seriatim, and after some alterations it was adopted, and the board adjourned. — Marriage Broken Of.

Just be- fore he died the sang ‘The Beautiful River® With avoice as though he had caught the tones from the softer shore on the brink of which his spirit was then trembling. After the song he repeated a little prayer which his mother had taughthim. The child all his life had a lisp, but this last prayer fell from his tongue without a halt or quaver, but rather, steady and clear. and yet with a far- off tone. as though another's voice of infinite sweetness had seized upon his lips in the st preme moment, to leave an echoin his an- giished mother’s ears which should last as long as life. Shortly after the little prayer the sunny eyes closed, and little Eddie was gone. On Sunday his funeral attracted the whole city, and there was not a dry eye around the dear child's bier HE Lick MONUMENT.—We learn from fornia that Dr. Horatio Stone, of this city, bas made a design tora monument to be erected at Fredericksburg, Pa., in honor ot Wm.

Te Mrs. Weod- ene ee — After our telegraphic report of the Tilton- Beecher trial cloeed yesterday, Mr. Moulton continued bis testimony as follows with re- ference to TRE LETTER OF RECANTATION dictated by Beecher:—Beecner dictated tis letter sentence by sentence, de wataly, dad took it down; this letter was written as fast s he dictated to me: Beecherdictated every word that is in the letter; 1 think the first sentence Beecher dictated on that occasion Was one beginning, I ask, through you, Theodore Tilton’s forgiveness,” &e; I saw Beecher in on the ad of January in his house; my Interview with him was alone: it was either on this day or aday or two after that he read the draft of Bowen's letter to me; he read ine the draft, and I said it was dust and truthful, I then told Beecher Tilt Was preparing a letter to Bowen; I do not re- member if Beecher asked me what were the charges preferred by Bowen against him; [ told Beecher I would try to get hold of this letter for the purpose of negotiating with Bowen; Tilton wanted to publish this letter, and let the public know as to the seyeranc> of his connection with Bowen; Tilton bega. Writing this letter on the evening of Jan. ist, at my house; think he finished the draft of it that night, I visited Mr. Beecher on the 2d of January, at his invitation, given ona pre- vious day; in my statements to Gen. Butler I told him that Mr. Beecher had asked me if it would be safe to let the sale of Plymouth pews take place, and [ replied in return that Tirould:oh dun. 1st Heccls ¥ told me that he had prayed to 4 for he! discon inue their sexual relations; thos y words he uttered to me; I do not recol it these were the words he always nsed when speaking of their intimacy BESSIE TURNER. Two letters were handed to the witness. Tsaw these two letters before Ig m to Judge Morris; they came i ession shortly after th ary 10. and January 12, 1871 ever since sie Turner then residing With Tilton; I talked with Tilton after gct ting the letters; these are all the papers that I recollect now having received from Bess Turner: arrangements were made for 0- ing away before I recetyed the letters; think J have got bills that will show when sh» en- tered the school. Counsel offered the letters show that the girl been sent cause she had he: stories against Tilt: and not because she had heart storie Beecher. The court ruled out these letters. Counsel then offered to read the letters which was objected to, but counsel rv permission from the court to real th c of aldressed to Mrs. Tilton by ing that the story of Til ton carrying her from her bet was. A WICKED LIE, and the letter of January 10, telling Mrs. = ton that Mrs. Morse had offered inducem ats to her to tell stories about her husband, which shedid not think would be right after the kindness she had received at both her hands. These two letters were admitted as evidence. After recess Mr. Moulton’s cross-examina- tion with regani to Bessie Turner's school expenses was continued. Nothing Import- ant waselicited beyond the points that wit- ness paid the bills sometimes to. the princi pal of the school and sometimes to Mrs. Til- ton, and the amounts were refunded to him by Mr. Beecher. In response to witness’ re- quest therefore, Witness was then examined with reference to the three letters of Febraa- h, 1. He said one was from Tiiton to and the other two were from Mr. Beecher to Mrs. Tilton, all written for the purpose of reconciliation; this was shortly before the starting of the Gold Age newspaper. Wit- hess testified as to the amount of money in- vested by Tilton and others in the Golden Age. Iwas at Tilton’s house shortly after the Golden Age started, w Mr. Beecher and Mrs. Woodhull were there; in 1871, before the publication of the Woodhull statement, I think, in Febrnury, I was looking for Beecher, and found in the office of the Goldea Age with Tilton. MRS. WOODHULINS LIFE was issued in tract form, but I do not know if it was one of the Golden Age publications: Mr. Tilton never told me that his publication of the life of Victoria Woodhull in the Golden Age was disastrous to him and his newspa- per enterpri Nilton said tome he did f a friendly act, and in the interrests of the re pression of the stories against Mr. Beecher; I told him that I thought its eflects would be disastrous to the paper; I cannot fix the date of my going out of the paper, but thi : the same time as Woodruff, who said that it would be better for Theolore Tilton tobe sole. proprietor of the paper; I did not then ¢ sider that Tilton was the sole proprietor of the paper; the notes were given by Tilton be payable on the succe: den Ag: in September, 171, Mrs. Woodhull visited my house; she may have dined there once or twice, I may ha: urged my wife to make heracquaintance; I think the | i Isaw her was in the autumn of 1472; I do not re- member that Tilton and I had any difficulty with Mrs. Woodiiull when I last’ saw her; [ never heard from Mr. Tilton that Mrs Wool- hull was threatening to publish an article = “Tit-for-Tat,” reflecting on several ladies. evistes — New York Dry Goons Marker.—Tne Yolume of business transacted during th week under review was only moderate.

Bleached cottons showed only a slight improved demand, and wes were nominally unchanged. although these goods exhibited far less strength than brown makes. Corset jeans showed an ad- vancing tendency, and some promineni brands were actually marked up by the agents, as was the case with American bags.

A negro named William Henry Robin- son had been visiting a mulatto woman, llv- ing not far from him for some time and she had promised to marry him. During the en- gagement she saw another man whom she liked very much, and her course in regard to the second man created great jealousy in the first lover. Her first choice began immedi- ately to investigate the matter, and on cis- covering the fact of her fondness for the sec ond man he aetermined to kill her. He went toa store not far off, bought some powder and large shot, started back to the house of the girl, and on getting close enough, he shot her dead. The murderer didn’t attempt to evade the law and was arrested the nextday, and lodged in jail at peg anges Several per- have been to see him and asked him he committed such an atrocions erir and he acknowledged it, but said he coulda? help it: that he loved her.

He had been con- nected with his brother for some time in pro- ducing Le aged pantomimes, and while he was usually cast for the thankless part of Pantaloon, the success of the play was Jarge- ly due to him, for it was his inventive ge- nius and skill that produced so many of the surprising illusions ena aupnaDissitaations with which Fox's pantomime always abounded. Mr. Charles Fox was born in Boston on the 1th of August, 1533. His death was the result of a cold which he centracted in Richmond about two weeks and which developed into typhoid fever. r. G. L.
