The deepest water found on this line was three thousand two hundred and eighty-seven fathoms. Two lines were started from Japan, but were ahandoned on account of the great depth of water. The third line was found feasible, and a line was run to Kuril Island, one of the Aletjau group, thence run to Ounlaski, and jfrom there to Cape Flattery, 'The greatest depth found on this line was five and one-fourth miles.

To-day has brought forth no new developments, nor has any further statements appeared, except a long letter written' by Rev. Dr. | Patton, of Chicago, dated August committee, in answer to an invita- tion to Mr. Patton to appear and testify before the committee. Mr. Patton details his knowledge of the charges against Beecher, but his statement contains nothing new. Moulton’s statement it is under- stood will be given to the public to morrow. Tilton has finished his_statement: and it will appear after Moulton's. His daughter Florence is now stop- ping with him at his house in Livingstone street. Moulton bas gone east again to consult with Gen. Butler. Mrs. Tilton is visiting friends in Connecticut. Her counsel visited her last week, and it is stated on | authority that she is to begin suit for'divorce. The Independent will publish to- morrow, under the head of “Mr. Moulton,” a letter from Dr. Bacon, | of New Haven, the ex-moderator of the Congregational council. The letter containa strictures of the se- verest character on Moulton in his capacity of 2 murual friend. Dr. Bacon says that three years ago the entire budget, very much as given in Tilton's statement, was laid be- fore him by men of high standing, who unfortunately knew nothing about the matter save what others told them. He then, for the first time, heard of Frank Moulton. In the shsence of proof or a show of it, he refused to withdraw his confi dence from Beecher or to charge his memory with the details of this very painful story, which he knew would ~ soomer or later become public. He was then impressed with the conviction, which afterwards grew stronger, that whoever might be the dupe or yietim, and whatever the result might be in regard to Beecher or any other parties interested in the mutual friend, would be gx%med as the chief of the plot. Whether Beecher’s charge that Moulton has for years been the chief actor in a hase conspiracy is true or not, ace cording to Moulton's own story, he deserves the reprobation and scorn of all honest me, though he seems too defigient in moral sense to know it. In each of the two stories there is an apparent gonspiracy—the one is against Beecher's peace of mind, agalnst hisreputation, hisusefulness, his fumily and his church, and against a weak and helpless woman, to disgrace her and her chidren; the other Is in conspiring to conceal a crime which ought to have been exnosed and published. Dr. Bagon denounges Maulton instrong; language for his attempts to avert the investigation, and says that even when the public seandal had become so great that Beecher called for a thorough investigation, Tilton had responded by giving all the detailsof his story to the world; when a thousand newspapers were calling on Moulton to produce the docugents &aid to be in' his_posses- ston, and supposed to be decisive, this peace maker was marvellously unable to see anything in the case other than a personal difficulty be- tween Beecher and Tilton. With an assurance born of perfect uncon- ciousness, he urged the commit- tee to accept his views of the ease to settleit by a compromise. nly fet us havea compromise hy which Beecher and Tilton shall be good friends again, and all will be well, Burely we have ‘a Daniel come to judgment! in the persan of Mr. Moulton. What he prposes is, that the man who, according to his story, is a thorough profiigate, lead- ing captive silly women, shall re- tain his position and all his influ- ence by coming to terms with The- odore Tilton. Ina rough outline, the case as it now stands is this: On the one sida we have Tilton's story and Moulton's, on the other, Mrs. Tilton'sand Beecher’s, Thou- sands of us, wkile walting for other _testimony, confide in Henrv Ward Beecher more than in Frank, and In poor Elizabeth more than Theodore. Yet we say, better were it l;r;: soci;aty,P Vl)etler {‘;; Ehflt tianity, hetter for Plymouth churgl and 2t s familien, better for Beecher himself, that being gullty he is cast down into shame and si- lence than that he be permitted by any connivance or forbearance on the part of his friends to retain his high position. The letter was dated l‘fqmm the country,” August 2lst, 1874, St. Louis, Sept. 2. The Republican learns, from a gentleman who just arrived here from Galveston, Texas, that on Fri- day last, at Corsicana, that State, the wife of a negro living three miles from town was grossly insulted by a white ruffian. The husband went and made complaint before a Justice of the Peace. In attempting to arrest the offender the negro and twoor three others wereshot, Some 800 negroes then armed themselves, with the intention of capturing the villain, who, with five or six com- anjons, took possession of a cahin n the suburbs of town and barri- eaded it, determined to resist arrest. ‘When our informant left the whites were urging the negroes not to be- siege the cabin, as its occupants were all well armed, CINCINNATE, Sept. 2.
