The formality of bo.ding the regular annual ousi- ness meeting was gone througn with, Mr. Edger- ton presiding a3 chairman, end when this was disposea of, in the space of a few min- utes, Deacon Hutchins was called to pre- side over the special meeting of the evening, Mr. Shearman, !anning himself in a mild sort of way, entered a little beiore this time and was grected kindly by many of the brethren, Neither Mr. Beecher nor any of his relatives made an appear- it expected.

The Chairman then read the ball for the meet- ing, which was for the object of fixing thi lary of the pastor, He said as the object of the m ing was known—haviog been announced trom tie | pulpit—tt was unnecessary for him to say any- | thing om that head. All the brethren ought to feel that their pastor had gone through a trytag The expenses involved 1n the trial and | in desending it were very great, and the pastor was in no condition to meet or sustain them. While it was not proper nor legal for them to vote money to defray these ex- penses, yet they could advance his saiary and thus meet the purpose. He hoped they would stand together shoulder to shoulder, as became old Plymouth, He hoped they would show the | churches and the world that they would stand by their pastor. GLORIFICATION AND GREENBACKS. Mr. H. W.

The skiil of ex- Judge Morris {n this instance so far prevailed upon the Court a8 to secure “Red's” acquittal | on his paying a fine of $50; and very soon after | the decision had been rendered the case of | Loader and Price was called, It was nearly eleven o'clock wi Price and Loader were arraigued. The interesting feature of the examination yesterday Was the appearance of Mr, Beecher on the witness stand. He denied fully the allegarions made in the aMidavits, Price and Loader were the only other witnesses examined, and at the conclusion of their evidence Justice Rley committed botn of them to swait the action of the Grand Jury, Price pleaded guilty, Loader pleaded not guilty. Below will be found the proceedings :— PROCEEDINGS IN COURT. About twenty minutes past ten o’clock District ‘storney Britton came beiore the bench, and, ad- dressing the Court, saia:—“l!

I reside at No. 24 Columbia Heignts, District Attorney Britton—Mr. Beecher, will you do me the favor to peruse the aMdavit of Joseph Loader (marked Exhibit C), so that I may ask you & question with reference to it. Mr, Beecher took the sMdavit with a steady hand and quietly giancea along the sotled pages of foviacap the crowd in the cours room bressed to the iront to catch a glimpse of the @reat preacher. Alter the lapse of a few moments Mr. Britton put the question, “Now, Mr. Beecher, is there anything in that aMdavtt alleged to have occurred between you and Elizabeth R, Tilton that is trae in point of fact 1” Mr. Logan objected to that form of question, saying the proper way to contradict the afidavit ‘Was to pr ve tn detail what did occur, “ Mr. Britton said he pat the question in that form and he proposed by 1t to contradict directly each fact in the aMidavit. If all tne facts were ua- | true he proposed to prove that. Justice Kiley Said (ie question ts admissible, District Attorney Britton (to Mr. Beecoer)—Is there any sfitement Im that aMudavit or allega- tion of fact alleged to have occurred between you aod Mrs, Eligabetn R.
