The Beecher-Tilton sensation is one of the most prominent topics in this city, and the articles daily appearing in the newspapers, serve 10 bring out every new develop- ment of interest each dlg It has been generally unde that the Golden Age was still the Bmv!fly of Tilton, and that e had simply retired from the editorial management, re- linquishing the same to W. T. €lark. The latter, however, in a letter to the Word, informs the public generally that he has pur- chased that paper, which is now ed- ited by himself, and that for its manifold sheetings and faults since the first of July, he is alone respon- sible. The Golden Age, neverthe- less, continues to defend Tilton in | his present troubles. MARKETS BY TELEGRAPK. | New York Money Market. NEW York July 15, Money—Easy at 2 per cent.
