A Pleasant Day for the Little Ones— Rays of Sanshine in the Homes of the Poor—Effective Arrangements for Uni- versal Comfort. Yesterday the children of the Fourteenth ward ‘were the recipients of the amiable benevolence which endeavors to console the bard privations of vhe poor in this city by taking out their little ones | into the sweet, fresh country air. They returned happy and radiant; their bright yonng faces, their | hands inil of flowers or bearing waving | green branches, reflected the gladness | of the good time they spent. In many a qualia home in the poverty stricken district sur- | rounding the Mulberry street station a relieved feeling of kinaliness and gratitude pervades hearts to whom pleasure is a rare visitant, in listening to the exuberant accounts of the day’s fan—the band, the bathing and above all the ice cream, lemouade and cake. ‘The excursion yesterday was not only the largest as to numbers up to the present time, but it pre- sented some features at additional gratification. As this form of active charity has tor its object the. endeavor of affording healthful, open air recrea- | tion to such as of themselves could never attain | it, the confident, well-pleased manner of tne | Bumerons little tatterdemalions, who yesterday In the summer crisp with shining woods ‘were Like things of the season, gay, Like the bountiiul season, biand, ‘must make a full recompense to the kind- mess which even in these times of pressure | does not disregard the care of Fortune’s out- | wasts. Throughout the barest homes in tne city | now the ieeling is that though they may be poor | nd pinched, they know they are not friendless, On the line of march to and irom the boat crowds 1 kindly sympathetic faces watched the joyous throng of wails “happy as kings” on their—their own—day. The boys, apparently, are leit pretty Much to their own devices as tar as costume is | concerned. The exceptions among the juvenile excursionists from the Fourteenth ward where clothing was periect were very few and far between. The great majority were ragged, | cular in hate or Without them, and | jundreds there were who showed a supreme indif- ference to the superfiuous luxury of shoes, ‘This latter brougit a lew casualtics in the shape of cut feet to the doctor’s hands. For, in accordance ‘with the time-lonored recklessness of suburban Picknickers, here and there ee ss the grass lay IN herous piece of broken bottle, The acci- ents from this cause were, bowever, with the good forvune that ever seems to smile on these Res, few, and the injuries of little consequence, ‘wo things characterizing yesterday's company are worthy oi notice, the great number of very young catidren, and their gentle though wholly Unrestrained conduct No less than 1,972 Were confided to the charge of Mr. Wiliams and Captain Clinchy. O1 these over 1,000 were under ten years of age—some very wee toddlers indeed, One little dame, of the advanced Matronly aye of nine, had a baby nearly as big as herself in arms. What might this small circum- stance suggest? Perhaps this was the Little Dorrit of a motherless home, unable to resist the | overpoweriig attractions of the wonderful ptenic, nd yet unable to dissever herself irom her help- less charge. The ig were all neatly dressed. One good result of this movement is especially shown in this quarter, Though regardiess in most cases how the boys appear, there is a Manifest determination among the motuers that the girls must show to advantage, Andvery pretty gnd Well behaved they all were. The scene as an example of many such—the untiring Governor's Isiand band playing a waltz, a sturdy policeman in a@corner with a delicate looking little girl seated on ‘Dis knee, good natured Dr, Thoms, the children’s especial iriend, dancing now with one, now with ‘nother little Terpsichorean enthusiast; Mr. Wil- liams everywhere, seeing everything was all right (the most indefatigable man in the world), and every one, young and old, thoroughly imbued ‘With the business of the day—pure, fresh, inno- cent epjoyment, Could it be imagined that out of ‘the stifling holds of the vile tenements that shelter the hapless crowd of Jews, Italians and Irish in this thickly populated ward, the laughing, merry, rattling multitude on the Chicago ever could lave come. In order that the reader may gain some idea of the admirable system adopted by Mr. Williams for the management of the children while they are ‘ander his care it may be well to describe the ar- Tangements obsetved on each excursion. As soon 48 the head of the column reaches the dock the | Order is issued for the children to march in single file, and as they pass over the gangway each child sugrenders its excursion ticket, and receives in | exc. auge one entitling it to breakiast.

As each child passes the table it obtains a large mug of iresh milk and a large French roll well buttered. The line is kept moving and as the girls empty their cups they are passed through the gate, and they cannot again reach the breakiass table owing to the absence of tickets. As soon as the girls are all attended to, the boys descend from the upper deck and are in turn passed upstairs by the jor- ward gupgWay. In this way the 2,000 children are safely moved and fed in about an hour. When the grove Is reacted the girls are marched ashore in two lines and given each a sandwich, and the boys Joliow in reguiar order in three lines. So rapidly was the movement periormed yesterday that only twenty-lour minutes were required to disembark the entire party, The amusements at the grove kept the children well occupied, and when the time for return came the gangways quietly opened and all comers marched on board, ‘Then they cach received another substantial sandwich, a full cup of lemon- ade and an ice cream ticket, alter which all are sent up stairs to give the steward and walters scope for tue preparations for @ feast of tce cream and cake. Everything being all ready, the giris eome first and give np their tickets. ‘They then pass the table aud receive each a plate of ice cream—no stinted measure either—thongh for these dainties it must be confessed the young ladies were terrible feminine editions of Oliver ‘Twist. Every one of them was equal to the demolition of a hundred weight, The girls ali supplied, the boys arrive, and as fast as they empty their ice cream plates they go to the forward gangway and receive their share of cake. This arrangement works 80 well that everything 18 done without fuss or coniusion, ‘The children, too, appear to understand all about the matter, and go the way required with hardly auy direction, After a most enjoyable stoppage for four hours at Excelsior Grove, the return Was sounded, Spring street pier was gained at half-past ve P.M., and in good time all the bairns were re- stored to the pleased mothers, who thronged in anxious expectation ali the streets im the neigh- borhood of the station. CHILDREN'S EXCURSIONS IN BROOKLYN. And now Brooklyn is emulous of New York's charitable deeds, and, in spite of her scandals and sorrows, has organized a “Fresh Air Fund"! to en- able the poor children of the city to bave a day's pleasure by the seaside or in the woods, The first Picnic will take place this week, EXCURSION OF THE WORKING WOMEN. To-morrow the steamer Twillght will make an excursion to Rockaway Beach and convey a large number of working girls thither, whose opportu- nities for recreation and enjoyment o1 a day’s in- vigoration are few indeed, This beneficent work | is under the auspices aud direction of the “Free | ‘Training School lor Women,” and doubtless hun- dreds of hearts will bless the hands that hold forth such gentle charity to the weary toilers of the Mi INDIAN OUTBREAK.

I was shocked at the mischlevousness of the mat- ter he threatened to publish. I remonstrated with him against its publication. A discussion ensued, on hia part passionate and noisy. He complained, first, that Henry C. Bowen had without cause dis- missed him from the editorship of the Independent and of the Brooklyn Union, and romed him in | | fame, prospects and estate; that he had crowned this wrong by refusing to pay him a large aebt for editorial services, of which he was in pressing need, and compelling him to bring a suit to collect the amount. His next plaint was that Mr. | Beecher had not helped him in his troub- les. He said that he was lying crushed onthe sidewalk in Brooklyn under the musfor. tunes of losing nis positions on the two papers, and the incomes derived trom them, with the ac- companying loss of the public respect and con- fidence—the loss, 1n & word, of the entire stored- up capital for his life career, and that Mr. Beecher, | who had such power that with his little finger he | could have nfted him up and reinstated him, saw him in bis agony and ruin, and passed by in silence | and indifferent on the other side of the way. Rising into a dramatic rage, and tramping my room (rom corner to corner, and speaking with in- tense passion, he declared, “1 will have revenge on him, I will pursne him into his grave.’ THE PECUNIARY COMPROMISE. It was clear to me that what Mr. Tilton wanted | was money and that his purpose in coming to me was to raise money. Omitting further details of this interview he left my office calm and happy, in the prospect of an arrangement I outlined that should immediately give him in hand, without the delays of a contested lawsuit, the money Mr. Bowen owed him and that would restore his old relations to Mr. Beecher and Mr. Bowen and pro- cure for him restorative and flattering mention in the editorial columns of the Jndependent and cause | to be inserted editorially in the Christian Union | such handsome notice of his newspaper enterprise | as should at once gratify and profit him. THE TRIPARTITE ALLIANCE. What is somewhat well known as the ‘Tripartite Agreement” came from the negotiation initiated after this interview. Before i¢ was drafted, bat after ita terms were settied, Mr. Bowen agreed to pay Mr. Tilton forthwith the amount of anpald salary for which he had brought suit, He likewise promised to publish a card im the Independent, over his own signature, that should repair as fully as it could the injury done to Mr. Tilton by dia- missing him from that paper. On the night of the 2d of April, 1872, when the tripartite agreement was ready for signature, Mr. Tilton was in a happy frame of mind. In conversation he especially overflowed with love and admiration Beecher, wards, ‘This tripartite agreement, which Iintended to be an estoppel to two of the parties to it, and a concordat all around was in the words :— “We three men, earnestly desiring to restore each to the other the respect, love and iraternity in which we once lived happily together in our social life in Brooklyn and as members of the Plymouth church, aud earnestiy desirimg ta It Was during the early part | Beecher had committed acts of adultery, or which, | 25th of December, 1870, at an interview in | “Mr. Beecher took | During your re- | cital of this tule you were filled with anger | Temaue all men, of whom Mr. ‘Tilton was one, at a house in dent, the other with tae jot Cniom With ref- | Brooklyn, He was mre than satisfed with the paragraph concerning himself. He was charmed with it, He saia he could conscientiously and | heartily subscribe bis name to every word of it. | | He satd he would sign it twelve times over if that | | Would induce Mr. Bowen to sign it once; andin | his eagerness be took up apen tosign. But he | was restrained by the suggestion of # wise and in- fuential party to the conference that Mr. Bowen | might be less willing to sign the paper il Mr. Tilton should sign first. It was carried away without Mr. | | ‘Tilton’s signature. | THE REAL GRIEVANCE STATED, | Ina fulland kind conversation between me and | Mr. Tilton, alter the meeting on the night of April , | 2 broke up, be replied to a clear cut question I put | to him, that the only wrong Mr. Beecher had ever done him had been wo address improper language | to his wife, and that for that he held in bis hands an ample and satisfactory written apology. Ire- peated to him menvion of a graver tojury than | that made to me by a person whose information | Was alleged to be derived, in part directly from | himsel1, in part at second hand, trom a contession of his wite. With great spirit he denied the truth | of both these statements, He calied the informant | ) at second hand a sexually morbid monomaniac, | | who had imagined every word she uttered. He | | Scornfully suid that there was not a shadow of | | truth in her story, He expressed amazement that | the other person shouid state that ne had ever | said that there was anything criminal in Mr. | Beecher’s conduct, and denied in the tulless and | or said anything that could be so construed by a truthful and healthy mind. And he returned to | | his previous declaration that Mr. Beecher’s sole | offence was improper language to lus wife, and | repeated it anew, and again repeated tnat the | written con/ession and apology he had in keeping | was ample atonement for that wrong. A CHANGE. The next morning, on the 3d of April, Mr. Tilton came to my office, in the Equitab!e Insurance Gom- | pany’s building. He was Nushed and sullen. There was a hitch inthe money payment. He said ab- | ruptly that he would not sign the agreement; that | | {t would have to be altered before he would sign | 1t. Kindling in anger as he talked, he satd that in | the negotiation Mr. Bowen had been weil taken | care of by Mr. Clatin and Mr. Beecher wél! taken care of by me, but he had been le/t out in the cold with the money due from Bowen unpaid. { com- bated this fancy kindly and tried to soothe him and hold him to the arrangement he had made, but he flew out wild and declared with the utmost passion | that he would never while he lived sign a paper | | that should disable Lim from pursuing Heury | Ward Beecher, and he demanded a copy of | his paragraph in the tripartite agreement, that he | | might alter it, I made a copy tor him, and he sat | down at a table and began to scratch and interline | it; but he rose up and carried his work away un: | | completed, Before he left 1 gathered from what he | said that Mr. Bowen nad reiused to pay the full | amount of his claim, and that bis lawsuit would | have to go on. | THE ALTERED AGREEMENT EXECUTED, But the jull amount was paid within a day or two thereafter, and the tripartite agreement was executed—not the one I drafted, and which was accepted by all the partics, but a modification of | | that. I used my last copy of this instrument in | my testimony before the committee, and I cannot | show the changes of the original by a comparison of the two, I can now only say that all the por- tions of the agreement (above set forth in {ually | which are italicized were omitted trom the agree. | ment finally executed, ‘The efficacy of the covenants I aimed at was | lost and the compact was defeated. ‘Tilton, in modifying bis paragraph, backed out of his dis- avow4’l of his imputations on Mr. Beecher and his | admissions that they were untrue, and carefully | | secured to himself the largest liberty to pursue | the great preacher forever with innuendoes. My testimony before the committee shows the changes in the tripartite agreement as originally drawn, | and which all the parties to tt had heartily ap- | | proved and had promised to sign. It also shows my earnest remonstrances against permitung these changes to be made and my warnings of the | mischievous consequences that would inevitably follow. MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES, |’ Mme, Essipoff, the Russian pianiste, who has set all London in @ blaze, has gone to Salzburg. Patti and Maurel appeared in “Il Trovatore” at Covent Garden. It is the first time that the French barytone essayed the role of the revengeful Count Di Lana. Mr. Jarrett, of Booth’s Theatre, has received a cable despatch informing him that Dion Bouci- cault would leave Liverpool for New York by the steamer Russia which sailed yesterday and will probably arrive on the 27th inst. The onject of Boucicault’s visit is to superintend the production of nis. new play which, being entirely original, and, as he declares, the “best he ever wrote,” he takes the deepest personal interest in. The piece is described as a ‘domestic love story founded upon | incidents of the late American rebeliion.” The | cast is to be phenomenal, including a heroic part by John McCullough, the tragedian. Mackey, the famous representative of old men, whose delinea- | tion of the Prefect of Police in Sardou’s “Agnes”? gave him an enviable metropolitan reputation; Miss Katharine Rogers, Charles LeCierq, and, pro- bably, the author himself are also to appear in it, Voegtlin, the artist, and seven assistants are now Sores upon the scenery, and the prospeot is that the theatre will be open upon the 10th of August, #8 promised by the management. } \ Died.
