The case of the State against Thompson, indicted for a felonious assault on Dora Link, a girl not twelve years old, near Hall's Springs, last November, was concluded in the Criminal Court, yesterday, the prisoner being found guilty of the charge.

The prisoner wore a somewhat more serious look than on the day before. The evidence for the State wag continued, end John H. Kopelman testified that on the day of Thompson's arrest he was at Schone's store, on the Belalr road, with his wagon, on the way home from Baltimore. Dora Link and her little brother were going home from school by the same road. She went into Schone's store to call for assistance.

The man (Thompson) had passed him on the same road, the girl following with her eyes on him until she could make sure of his being caught by those at and about the store. She came ont of the store quickly, and then said to witness, "Yonder is the man that had. me in the woods," at which witness said, "After him, then;" and, leaving his wagon in care of another, followed with the girl in pursuit, crying "catc him." described his pursuit oy several blacksmiths of San Domingo, a locality near the city, and Lis capture by Mr. Brown. Witness heard a reward had been offered, but did not hear of it until after the arrest.

Thompson begaa his flight as soon as he saw witness, the littj girl and others start for him. Officer Ford, of the county police, testified to having heard Mr. Kopelman and Mr. Brown, witnesses in the case, who had assisted in capture, converse about the rewa eayLe thought he was eati- t0 reward for part of it. Grge Biddison, a boy 14 years old, tes-titu tnat he lives on the Belair road.

Saw the prisoner on the afternoon when the assault was committed, near the German Lutheran Church, and not far from the place of the assault. Witness afterward recognized him in jail at Tow-sontown out of about forty prisoners. Thompson was the last bnt one he saw in jail. When witness first saw Thompson on the road he had short sandy whiskers. He noticed the man because he looked at him so hard.

Charles H. Bryan, jailer at Towsontown, and Mr. Biddison, father of the former witness, confirmed the testimony of the boy as to his recognition of the prisoner in jail. Mr. Biddison testified that his son described the man he met on the read that night at home, when they heard of the outrage, as dirtv, with short sandy, whiskers, goatee, Witness scoured the country for him under his son's description.

Did not notice if there was any other sandy-whiskered pfisonor in jail when his son identified Thompson, John Schone testified to the girl's coming into his store and telling him that the man who had her in the woods was out there, and she wanted him to help to catch him. He said to Dora he had no one to leave in charge of the store, but for her to follow to San Domingo and she could get plenty of help. She went out towards Thompson, who fled as the little girl and Kopelman started for him, the girl being in advance of her assistants. This closed the evidence for the prosecution, when Mr. Rowland stated what the defense would prove.

He said the prisoner, at the time of the ontrage, was confined at his home, 135 North street, with an attack of inflammatory rheumatism, and had so been for some months previous. Mrs. Baker testified that she is the mother of the prisoner, and lives at 135 North street; her son, the prisoner, was taken sick the second week in July, 1874, with inflammatory rheumatism. They then lived at the corner of Holliday and Pleasant streets; in October, the latter part of the mouth, they moved to 135 North street, her son being moved with great difficulty; during the mouth ot November, he was not able to get down stairs at all; his leg was very much swollen; he besran to tret better in the Christmas holidays, and then was able to come down stairs; Drs. Keirie and Stein visited and prescribed for him several times, but owing to the nature of the complaint did not have to visit him often; she got liquor to rnb the diseased parts: her son had no black coat.

On cross-examination witness said she had lived in Baltimore six years; her son was not able to move about until sometime in December; witness took in sewing, and was at home all the time, so that her son could not have gone out in the month of Novemoer without her knowledge: Dr. Keirie was to see him several times and Dr. Stein once, the latter in October; she got medicines at the dispensary, North and Saratoga streets; he was not entirely well when arrested: he had gone out to get work; she had objected to his going out on the Belair road because she was al'raiu it would hurt his an ties again. Mrs. llliard testified she is the sister of prisoner and lived with her mother and him at 135 North street; she gave similar testimony to that of her mother and said it was February before her brother could go out; ebe did not tell two gentlemen, Mr.

Pontier and Mr. Mann, who called at her house, that she would have to see the doctor before she could ssy whether or not her brother was eonflned to the house on the 20th of November, 1874. Mr. Bowman was asked if Mrs. Baker bought medicine at his store, which she said was for her Bon's rheumatism shortly before the alleged assault.

Objected to by the State, objection sustained and exception to the ruling taken by defense. D. P. Oslar testified that he occupied the premises, 135 North street, partly occupied by Mrs. Baker; went there in Dember: saw the prisoner then and before that hobblihg about the premises with a stick.

On cross-examination he said he was present and heard one of the womin say to Mr. Pontier she conld not recollect without seeing the doctor whether her son was at home on the day or not of the assault. Dr. D. G.

Keirie testified that he attended the prisoner at various time, but he could not recollect the time or times; does not remember to have attended him at 135 North street, but at the corner of Holliday and Pleasant streets. Mr. Fisher testified that he knew the prisoner; he worked with witness, and lived at his house till the spring of 1874: witness carried on a market garden about midway between the Harford and York roads, and about a mile from Erdmau's avenue. Five witnesses gave the prisoner a good character. Mr.

Flaharty also testified that he went to the house where the prisoner lived, at 135 North street, about the middle of November, and found him sick. John Pontier. a city detective, testified that he went to the house 135 North street with a Mr. Mann, from Towsontown. a friend of the prisoner; witness was at that time working on the case for the State; be heard Mrs.

Baker say in response to an inquiry from Mann that she did not know whether her son was at home the day of the assault, but the doctor had attended him several times, and she could tell the time he was at home by seeing the doctor. Policeman Mills testified to going to the places of abode of prisoner, both at the corner of Pleasant and Holliday and at 135 North street, to find the prisoner after he was suspected of having committed the assault; he aever found him at home; the family moved to 135 North street early in December. This ciosed the testimony on botn sides. Mr. Talbott, for the State, after a close analysis of the evidence, said outrages like that charged were of the most serious character, and were regarded with such abhorrence that the community is sometimes aroused to so great a state of indignation that the ordinary course of law is not waited for.

but swift punishment is visited npon the guilty wretch. If a thickly settled portion of the country like that part of Baltimore county in which the deed was committed needs to be made secure against this foul crime, he would intermit no effort to that end as State's attorney of Baltimore county. Messrs. Malcolm Johnson and Wm. Rowland made arguments for the defense, biffing the evidence and contending that the young girl was mistaken in her testimony as to the prisoner's identity.

Mr. Knott closed the argument for the State, arraying with great force the facts against the prisoner. He pointed out the striking incident that over three mouths after the commission of the crime the prisoner was seen near the very spot where the act was done by the victim of his beastly propensity and thus brought to justice, and he commented npon that quality in the nature of crime which draws the perpetrator, as in a maelstrom, around the guilty spot, and dratrs him down to a dreadful doom. The jury retired at 5 P. M.

aud after a brief absence rendered a verdict of guilty. The prisoner was then taken back to the city jail. His punishment, in the discretion of the court, is either death or confinement in the penitentiary for not less than eighteen months nor more than twenty-one years. JFr6tn Europe Tit Caspian Fire JiaifS Among Iceberg. The steamship Caspian, Captain Trocks, of the Baltimore and Liverpool line, arrived vesterday afternoon from Liverpool, via St.

John's, N. and Halifax. She left Liverpool June 1, aud on the 10th, off Newfoundland, was among icebergs, which Capt. Trocks describes to have been of gigantic size and very numerous. Heavy fogs prevailing, the Caspian was stopped for five days because of the impracticability of proceeding whilst in the firoximity of the icebergs.

The steamship's og from the 10th to the 15th each day has this entry: "Light breezes; denze fog; ship stopped on account of fog and icebergs. On the morning of the lbth the fog cleared and the Caspian left the company of her dangerous and frigid neighbors aud proceeded uninjured to St. John's. The Caspain had as passengers for Baltimore Miss lialdane, Mr. Raymond, R.

B. Begg, O. Greene, J. Bently, John Crosby and George May, of England, in the cabin, and thirty-two intermediate and steerage passengers. She has a large cargo, composed principally of rails, earthen and Ironware, wine, beer, ale, soda, tin-plates, tc.

Her sailing time is advertised as Friday, at 8 A. M. Carl LocJi'a Body Found. Yesterday afternoon the persons engaged in searching for the body of Carl Loch, the young German who was drowned while bathing off the Lazaretto last Saturday, were successful in bringing it to the surface. Coroner Kelly was notified, an inquest held, sud a verdict of accidental drowning rendered.

The body was given in charge of an undertaker to prepare for burial, under the supervision of Loch's acquaintances in this city. The identity of young Loch has been fully ascertained. He was a wealthy and educated resident of the German province of Hessen. Whilst gunning in the forests he was stopped by a forester or keeper, a quarrel ensued, and Loch shot the forester in the leg. He thonght it prudent to leave Germany until the affair could be arranged, and came to the United States.

It is stated that he contemplated visiting Central America before returning to Germany. Aliened Arson Case. Thomas Madden was Hepeat of the Hanover Street Opening Ordinance. The ordinance repealing the ordinance to open Uanover etreet from Baltimore to Mulberry street, which had passed the first branch, yesterday passed the second branch of the city council by a yof of 7 to 2, the only nays being Messrs. Seim and Murray.

The repealing ordinance now goes to the mayor. In discussing the repealing ordinance Mr. Loney said he was at first strongly in favor of the opening of Hanover street, bnt he, like many ot here, whose petitions for the repeal of the ordinance were before the eonncil, was now in favor of the repeal. No one can look at the map showing the course and effects of the opening without eeeing the necessity of pausing in the opening. It is not the expense, heavy as that must be, for all great improvements must cost a large sum; it is not alone the inconvenience of badly shaped lots bnt it ia the fact, patent to all, that it is impossible to justly compensate some of the property owners whose Property would be taken; that admonishes the cOUvcil to pause before doing such nn injustice.

He wa favor of the opening of Baltimore and Fayette which had been vetoed, aud he was opening of those streets would come in a few Mr. Seim said he me opinion they should adhere to thei" first action. The expenses they have incurred, iifw reported, are $4,000, and the expense of examining titles is to be -aued making $8,000 to $10,000. They should havfiho-P'iPse pf.opcnins will be and what sort of lots it would make before passing the ordinance to open. Only a few persons on Baltimore etreet first began to clamor for repeal.

It is true some persons whose property was near the line of the opened street would be injuriously affected, but that should not counterbalance the benefits te others. Mr. Hogg said he was a new member of the council when he reported in favor of opening Hanover street, and it was one of the few of his acts he now regrets. He had regretted that vote ever since he had seen the map showing what wonld be the size of the lots and the property that woulg be taken, and ever since then he had been for repeal. The opening wonld benefit him, (Mr.

Hogg.) bnt it would not benefit the community, and he was for the community. As for the advantages expected the opening of Little Sharp street, now proposed, will effect the same advantages. Any one can see by the map that the opening of Hanover street is not a public improvement for which the citizens should be taxed a million or nearly a million cf dollars. From Lexington etreet to Cathedral the opening, as can be seen, will be a very doubtful improvement, or anything but an improvement. Mr.

Murray said he might not have voted for the opening if he had" known as much as the map now snows, but having voted for it then, and there being a number of citizens in his section interested in it, he would vote against the repeal. He thought at any rate those citi-aens who petitioned the council for the opening should be required to pay their proportion of the expense already incurred. Council Notes.

Mr. Seim offered a resolution, which was adopted, in the second branch of the council, for the city comptroller to give the legal notice of application for the opening of Cathedral Btreet from Mulberry to Liberty street. Proposed A'eit) Iceboat. In the first branch of the city council yesterday Mr.

Baker, from the committee on the harbor, reported an ordinance appropriating $200,000 for the construction of an additional iceboat, to be used in keeping opea the harbor of Baltimore. The ordinance provides that there shall be three responsible persons appointed to be styled a board of commissioners for the construction of an iceboat, who shall contract for the building of a suitaole vessel, steam apparatus and furniture, the commissioners to serve without pay, and the contract to be given to Baltimore mechanics. The money to be appropriated is to come out of the levy for 1870. The ordinance was laid over to be printed. The report accompanying the ordinance says that the present iceboat is totally inadequate, and there is urgent necessity for an additional one.

Inquest on, the Body ofJUary Myers. An inquest was held yesterday at Wilmington on the body of Mary Myers, who was killed on the Philadelphia, ilmington and Baltimore railroad, Saturday night, by the northward bound express. The evidence gave no further light regarding her except that she has a sister at Canton. The jury rendered a verdict in accordance with the facts of her death, heretofore stated. It is supposed that she was suffering from aberrat ion of the mind, her attire inducing that belief, she being dressed at the time of her death in a wrapper only, without shoes or covering for her head.

The railroad company has placed the body upon ice, and it will be kept nntil to-morrow, and then, if unclaimed, will be decently buried by the railroad company. The Canton Yacht Club.

The joint special committee of the city council appointed to investigate charges against members of the committee on highways submitted a report in the first branch last evening through Mr.

Bullock, as far as the charges related to John S. Hogg, entirely exonerating him. The charges were made by Mr. Browning, a member of the committee on highways, to the effect that Mr. Hogg had carried his daughter to the city of New York in company with the committee on highways, the expenses being paid ont of moneys drawn from the city treasury for the purposes of that committee, which was en-g'STed on business connected with the city; and further, that the daughter Of Mr.

Hogg traveled under tfce passes issued to members by the committee, without the payment on Part 01 Mr Hogg of the fare of his daughter. The report of the committee is as "The joint special committee of investiga. XQ? of the charges against members of the commit-' tee on highways, and to whom was referred the charges submitted against John S. Hogg, a member of the second branch, and formerly a member of the committee on highways, having carefully sifted and examined the charges aforesaid, find that they are without any foundation whatever, and ask to be discharged from further consideration thereof." Signed, John S. Bullock, Charles W.

Chancellor, Henry Cash-myer, of the first branch: H. D. Loney and W. J. Murray, of the second branch.

Accompanying the report was the following, win'-'' 5fXe-d: -4ilesolved- lZ me commftwe be -ltd from the further consideration of if5. charges against John S. Hogg." The resection goes to the second branch for the action of that body. The only witness examined in reference to the charge against Mr. Hogg was Allen E.

Forrester, who went to New York as clerk jo the committee on highways. Mr. Forrester testified in substance that previous to going to New York he accompanied Mr. Browning to the'rail-road office, corner of Baltimore and Calvert streets, for the purpose of securing accommodations in a sleeping car for members of the committee and others going to New York. When arriving at the depot he met Mr.

Hogg, who was accompanied by his daughter. Mr. Hogg. Mr. Tegmeyer and Mr.

Seim preferred chairs to a sleeping car, but only three chairs could be obtained, and one was given to Mr. Hogg, one to his daughter and the other to Mr. Tegmeyer. Mr, Hogg told witness what he had paid for the chair for his daughter was not to be included in the committee's expenses. Shortly after arriving at the Grand Central Hotel in New York, Mr, Hogg said to witness, in the presence of Mr.

Seim. and he believed Mr. Bullock also, that he desired Mr. Forrester to keep an accurate statement of all money that might be expended on acconnt of his daughter (Mr. Forrester acting as paymaster,) even insisting that he should include a box of oysters which Mr.

Forrester had purchased for her iit Wilmington. In about a or two after they returned from New York Mr. Hogg called on witness for a statementjof fiis daughter's expenses, and he fave it to hire. Since giving the statement Mr. 'orrester remembered that he had omitted one item, whteh was two or three cents for her fare across the Hudson river, which he had not charged against her.

The reason Mr. Forrester did not give a statement until called npon by Mr. Hogg, was that being short of funds, (having drawn $200 from the city register and having $135 of his own,) he borrowed $20 from Mr. Hog; in New York. The items of Mr.

Hogg's daughter's bill were as follows: Chair seat in car SI; oysters 50 cents; breakfast SI; supper sandwiches 25 cents; back fare from ferry to hotel 50 cents; back fare from hotel to ferry 75 cents; back fare from West Philadelphia depot to Continental Hotel Jl, making SB in all. Mr. Forrester gave a bill and receipt to Mr. Hogg for the amount, on account of the $20 which he borrowed from him, and he was still indebted to Mr. Hogg $14, less two or three cents paid for fare over the Hudson river.

Mr. Hosrg's daughter, it is understood, did not stop at the hotel while in New York, bet visited her friends ia that city. The passes over the road, it is also stated, were obtained free of charge. The investigating committee will probably report to-day or to-morrow npon the charges preferred against Mr. Browning, the testimony in the case already making about one hundred pages of manuscript.

'1'lie Neic Port Warden's TJne. The commissioners to define the part warden's line yesterday sent their report to the second branch of the council describing the new line. The report was read and laid on the table. They report that they have laid down the following line for the north and east sides of the harbor of the middle branch of the Patapsco riverand Spring Garden, namely: Beginning at a point on the south side of Russell street at the distance of 17 feet northeasterly from the corner formed by the intersection of the northeast side of Bush street, it being the beginning of the grant to Charles Ranstead, and running thence southeasterly with Bush street, until it intersects a line drawn parallel with the northwest side of Eutaw street, and distant 150 feet therefrom northwesterly; thence northeasterly on said line.parallel with Eutaw it intersects the northeast side of Bayard street, if extended; thence northeasterly to a point on the southeast side of Baker wharf, distant 547 feet from Ostend street; thence southeasterly, parallel wit Ostend street, until it intersects the old port warden's line, as laid down on the maps of the city; thence southerly on said line, and continuing the same course to a point on the old port warden's line 230 feet westerly from the angle of said line at Sharp and McComas streets; thence southerly to a point on the old port warden's line 230 feet westerly from the point where said line intersects the west side of Sharp street at a point 100 feet south of the north side of Moale street; thence running easterly and southerly with the old port warden's line to a poiut 100 feet south of the north side of Ferry street; thence easterly, parallel with Marshall etreet and 100 feet west from its east side; thence southerly, parallel with Marshall street, until it intersects the old line; thence easterly with the old line to a point 100 feet east of the west side of Bvrd street; thence northeasterly, parallel with Byrd street, to a point equidistant from Ferry street and the old port warden's line; thence easterly, parallel with Ferry street, until it intersects the old line; thence northerly and easterly with said line to the end of the second line as erantedto ThomasWinans; thence running and binding on said grant easterly and westerly to the old port warden's line at Moale and Jackson streets; thence along the old port warden's line southerly and easterly and northerly to Fort McHenrv, as laid down on city plats. The commissioners state that their attention was called to what they allege as the very improper manner in which Mr.

Ranstead is making property for himself, to the loss of the public harbor and to the ruin of his neighbors property as to water privileges in the northwestern portion ot Spring Garden harbor. He has carried his lines out to navigable water, inclosing twenty acress of ground. The dirt thrown into his inclosnre is constantly washing out through the seams of the front logs of his wharves, and if this continues the water must soon become un-navigable. He should be compelled, they say, to properly secure what he has inclosed, if "it Is done in a legal manner, or an injuction should be obtained by the city to prevent his placing dirt or shells in front of his wharves.

Hopkins, G. Harvey and Wm. O. Harvey. Prof.

Thayer brought up the subject from last meeting of the architecture of birds, and had read an article from Harper's Magazine, for June, by Mrs. Mary Treat, upon the subject. Mrs. Treat savs birds of the same species build differently and of different materials. She observed this difference in different pairs of the common brown thrush and also among robins.

The commonly received theory is that birds of the same species build in exactly the same manner in the Dime locality, and of the same material throughout. Mr. Hilgert gave an interesting acconnt of a swallow's nest found by him in Alberquerque, New Mexico, and sent to the Smithsonian Institute. The birds had osed hempen rope and tar in the construction of their work. Prof.

Seaman, botanist of the United States department of agriculture, spoke of a peculiar form and enlargement of gails on leaves of the hazel bush. It is generally conceded that all anch excrescences are the result of the ravages of an insect, but in some cases it has been thought to be due to the presence of a kind of fungus. He instanced the "apples," as they are commonly termed, found npon the wild honeysuckle, as perhaps proceeding from a fungus. He also referred to the "curl;" as it is called, pon the leaves of the peach tree, and suggested that it would be a matter of interest tor the members of the academy to examine into it. The aeademT adjourned to meet on the evening of the third Monday of September next.

School Hoard. The weekly meeting of the school board was held last night at the city hall, the president, Mr. Morris, in the chair, and II. M. Cowles secretary.

and J. McKenzie, of female primary No. 13. Mr. Roemer, from the committee on expenditures, who have had under consideration the resolution in regard to teachers' salaries in the English-German schools, recommended that teachers in those schools of primary branches receive the same salary as primary school assistants; those who teach grammar school studies receive the salary of third assistants in grammar schools, commencing with September 1st next; adopted.

Mr. Towson, from the committee on accounts, reported bills for white schools, $144 tS, and for colored schools, $18 67; ordered paid. Mr. Poe asked that the committee be authorized to inquire into the cost of enlarging colored grammar school No. 1 and report on it; granted.

The board then went into secret session for the election of teachers, and adjourned without quite concluding the elections. It is expected the elections will be completed and announced next week.

The editor of the Martinsbnrg (West Virginia) Statesman accompanied the excursion party from that city to Baltimore, on Tuesday of last week, over the Martinsbnrg and Potomac and Western Maryland roads, and in his last issue makes complimentary mention of tho new route.

The road from Martinsbnrg to L'agerstown. it is represented, is solidly constructed, and opens up facilities to the farmers of the northern section of Berkeley which in time will gr'ciy echance the value of their lands, affording them, as it does, choice of mar-keti i ind means of transportation of which they tiardly dreamed a few year ago of becoming possessed. The Statesman thinks the new route is destined "to monopolize all the trade and travel between the northern sections of the two Virginias, Western Maryland and Southern Pennsylvania, which, despite other markets, will find its way to Baltimore and to the truck caravansaries of Washington city." A point of interest to the excursionists was "Blue Ridge Summit," a beantiful and picturesque place, owned by ex-Mayor John Lee Chapman, and destined to become a place of great resort. A comfortable station, pavillions and other buildings are already erected, and hotels, boarding houses and bowling alleys are in conrse of erection. On-viewinit its advantages as a place of recreation, many of the excursionists immediately suggested that it; was the very place for tonrnaments and picnics.

The Statesman represents the appointments of the new ronte as first-class, the passenger coaches being of the most luxurious and comfortable character, and the grades, curves and bridges constructed with a due regard to the safety of the traveling public, and concludes: "There is one more connection absolutely required by the Martinsbnrg and Potomac and the Cumberland Valley railroad, and that is the building of the short line connecting Martinsbnrg with the Washington and Ohio railroad at or near, Snickersvilie, in Clarke county, which will give a through line to Washington, Alexandria, Richmond and Norfolk, Stattnton (Va.) Water Works. The Staunton Spectator says the prospects are bright for the speedy building of works by which that city will have an abundant supply of water, Messrs, John A. Hambleton of Baltimore, having proposed to take the contract for building them for taking their compensation in 8 per cent, bonds of the city of Staunton at par, and guaranteeing to turn over the works for that money complete and ready for use. The plans and specifications of the Messrs. Hambleton will be submitted in about ten days, when, if approved by the committee, they will be accepted, the contract closed and the work at once commenced.

how and when are we expected to pay it? Let us hear from the bondholders. We can't repudiate, and would not if we could. Bat we can scale, can't we?" The Nashville Union thns comments on the causes of the recent decline in Tennessee stocks in the Kew York market, and the attendant failure there to negotiate a small loan to meet the July inter est: "The trouble is that there has been too much talk savoring of repudiation countenanced in a negative sort of way among us during the past tew years since we happily recovered control of our own affairs. The Bame interests are in existence still that inspired these equivocal speeches and writings concerning State finances, and the mere uncertainty thus engendered breeds a nest of pestiferous speculators, who, being adepts at trade, are equally ready to pocket profits on the 'bull' side or to -bear' as the breeze happens to blow." The Memphis Appeal of the 19th also'says: "There has been a studied attempt on the part of certain individuals for a considerable time to do all in their power to injure the credit and depreciate the bonds of the State. Those parties have succeeded in preventing the payment of the July Interest.

It may be their object to run bonds down very low in order that they may purchase them at depreciated rates, and afterward, when they rise in value, profit by their appreciation. Such men are willing to destroy the credit of the State and injure her fair reputation in order that they may make money by her degradation. Let those who pretend that there are bauds now outstanding which are tainted with fraud show which are those bonds. All of the bonds are mentioned in the last comptroller's report, and II any of them are fraudulent let it be shown. General assertions that a portion of the bonds are fraudulent merely show the recklessness of the persons making them.

The flimsy pretext that the bonds were purchased at less than their face value is, to an intelligent person, mere trash. If a State permits its credit to sink by the non-payment of its debts, it has no right, either morally or legally, to take advantage of its own we have no patience with men who wonld degrade and disgrace Tennessee, and shall never hesitate to express our abhorrence of repudiation and repadiators," The Sub-treasurer paid ont at New York yesterday $10,000 on account of interest, and (436,000 for bonds.

Tli Alleged Tampering? wltlillie Jury FaelM in Ktserve The lroaeentloii lleanmed-lteeeli-er's Ethics Under Fire. New York, June 22. A dense crowd filled the court-room this morning. All ihe parties to the suit were present. Judge Neilson stated that some of the jury were in his room this morning aud he had conversations with them in regard to the occurrences of last evening, and believed that they wore laboring nndcr a misapprehension, a surprise in stoke.

Mr. Fullcrton said that the jury would be surprised to know of tho facts which had been brought to their knowledge and in their possession with regard to the matter, and in some instauces even affidavits had been placed in their bauds. Mr. Evarts made a few remarks on the subject, and said that all the issues Mr. lieechor had to meet were those presented by the witnesses on the stand, and not those advanced against him in the newspapers.

JUDGE NEILSON irSttS TO EXPLAIN. Judge Neilson said that he had observed in some of the, evening papers a paragraph to the effect fiat his charge had been prepared two months ago, and that be had some time since received a request to charge from some of the counsel. In justice to himself and counsel he felt compelled to state that his charge was not yet finished, bnt was now in process of preparation, and that he had not received any request to charge. He was of the opinion that if he was allowed to deliver his charge first he could do it in such a manner as that counsel wonld have bnt few requests to make, and these they could advance after the charge had been given. Mesrs.

Fullertoa and Evarts acquiesced in this matter. NEST-HIDIN8 AND TRUE INWARDNESS. Mr. Beach then arose and continued his summing up to the jury, and read the letter from Beecher to Mrs Tilton, in which he speaks of the bird singing in his heart, and in which is mentioned "true inwardness." The "nest-hiding" letter was also read by counsel, who took this opportunity of disclaiming that they took the meaning of the word to be adultery. That was not so, as it meant concealment.

In Mr. Beecher's novel, "Norwood," he likens a delicate woman, concealing her love, to a bird covering up her nest with vines and leaves. SUICIDE OR A SEA VOYAGE. In the letter of Jnne 1, 1873, Mr. Beecher said he had a strong feeling that he was spending his last Sunday and preaching his last sermon, and in Tilton's testimony it appears that Beecher asked him to give him notice if he was going to publish the documents that he might either take his life by suicide or take a voyage to some foreign land, and toe jury would remember the evidence given by Mrs.

Moulton. THE DILEMMA EXPOSED BY RICHARDS. Counsel would trouble them with a few remarks upon the testimony of Mr. Richards, in which he stated that he saw Beecher in the front room, and Mrs. Tilton moving hastily away with flashed cheeks.

We are told that Mrs. Tilton loved Mr. Beecher, and also that he had a feeling for her. Remember this condition of things in that light Mr. Beecher on a chair, and the door opened suddenly and this woman springing away from him with burning cheeks.

Was not this a situation which would cause suspicion to enter the heart of the brother? We are told that Mr. Beecher visited Mrs. Tilton to pray with and advise her; but this was not the attitude of prayer they were in when the door was opened. It was suggested that on the impulse of the moment and in the embarrassment she did not advance to her brother to greet him, but went to the window, thus showing that she was cognizant of the nature of her impropriety. Counsel then passed on to the consideration of Mr.

Redpath's testimony. Mr. Beach then referred to Tilton's interview with Rcdpath, in which Redpath mentioned that he was going to see Beecher, and Tilton said, "tell him that I charge adultery." Counsel then read from Mrs. Morse's letters to Beecher. referring to the misery he had caused the family and the secret of her daughter's life, and asked why he did not go to this woman and demand an explanation if he were innocent.

He next referred to the interview at Freeland's honse between Beecher end Bowen, in which Beecher, with the charges hanging over him, sought to secure Bowen as an ally in his dilemma. Mr. Beach then declared that if Beecher had been innocent he could not have rested under the assertion made by Bowen in 1870 that he knew one thing which could drive Beecher out of Brooklyn. Bowen also said that the settlement of his difficulties with Beecher did not include that one thing. This charge was known to Beecher, and yet he had continued during all these years to break the scriptural bread for this communicant and pour out for him the blood of the Redeemer.

LYING FOR LOVE. After referring to Bessie Turner's theatrical testimony Mr. Beach came down to the issue which had been forced npon Beecher that perjury had been committed, or else Beecher had quieted his conscience by a form of denial by his oath. Counsel stated that there were cases when men had lied to save the honor of women with whom they had intrigues, and that in snch instnnces it was thought to be no sin, and he quoted several cases as examples. The Rev.

homas K. Beecher said in a lecture thai perjury with advanced thinkers was no sin. Prof. Wilkeson, of the Rocheter Theological Seminary, says it is one thing to lie against a thing and another thing to lie for it. Almost all casuists agreed that there were circumstances which justified falsehood in some cases.

BEECHER ON CONFESSIONS. In a eermon on the nobility of confession, delivered on the 4th of October, 1808, Mr. Beecher said are we commanded to profess everything before men, make the most injudicious confessions and to the most injudicious persons. The first thing to do after committing a crime was to purify yourself from it and then take counsel from some person. This was the teaching of Beecher, aud the question was whether he had acted on his own theory and convinced his own mind and conscience that this was a case where he shonld commit that which under other circumstances would be a grievous sin.

Could the jury conceive any exigency which more forcibly appealed to the honor and duty of a man than the position occupied by Mr. Beecher in tho view of public morality than this case exposed to them. Mr. Beecher says be docs not marvel that there is so much lying, but the marvel to him was that there was bo little of it. Counsel quoted from sermons of defendant one relative to ATONEMENT, in which Beecher referred to the idea of a God suffering for a world, and said that there were some men who felt thatthey had no need of an atonement; "and says Mr.

Beecher, "do not believe in its need" II. W. Beecher teaching the inspiration of the Scriptures, and believing in it, while he did not believe in one of its corner-stones! All the apostles, said Mr. Beach, teach ns that salvation was reached through the atoning blood of Christ, and all this was rejected by Beecher, who did not believe in the saving blood of a Redeemer. And Tracy, in his open-lug, branded Moulton as a heathen, while Beecher was held np as the pure and Christian character of the age.

THE CHURCH AND THE SACRAMENT. Having thus rejected the atonement, Mr. Beecher also denies that the Christian Church stands on a stable foundation. Counsel quoted from another of Beecher's sermons in which he said that churches and governments, though useful, were not obligatory, nor did they come under the warrant of the Scriptures. The speaker had always supposed that the church was Christ's, and that "where two oi three are gathered together in My name there will I be among them." Mr.

Beecher also says that the holy Sacrament was not obligatory, as it was thonght to be in the high churches, and Mormons aud all unbaptizea persons were invited to sit down and commune with ihe brethren of Plymouth Chnrch. He says that he nses it not because there is any value in it, bnt because it was a health and strength for converted souls. With this looseness of sentiment, this teaching of the Scriptures and the sacraments of God, it was not wonderful that Sabbath day should not be respected. THEATRES AND TADPOLES. Counsel believed that Beecher had advocated the freedom of the theatres on the Sabbath day, and that, although such actors as Lester Wal-lack and Dion Boucicault had protested against it, Mr.

Beecher taught that Christ never mentioned the Sabbath day without detracting from its eacredness. He also said that our parents were of the lower order of nature as tadpoles and monkeys, The court here adjourned. Connecticut and the Centennial. Hartford, June 22.
