The first sale o( lands by the Centinela Colony company, of California, whose ad vertisement appears elsewhere, look place on the company's lands near Los Angeles February 16. About a thousand acres were disposed of at an average of $40 per acre", or an aggregate of $40,000, at which rate the entire 25,000 acres belonging to the company would be worth nearly one million dollar?. Among the purchasers at the sale were Hon. J. Ross Browne, lately United States Minister to Chin Mr. G. H. Washburue, and General J. II. Shields, of New England. Colonel D. Freeman, who sold the Centinela to thfl company at $10.05 per acre, bought batfs' 144 acres of the same land at the ale at $62 per acre, ' The Los Angeles Express speaking of the present appearance of the country unrounding Centinela says : '. .

A great crowd continue to linger in the neighborhood of St, Andrew's Church, the scene of the calamity last evening, but only reporters and officials are permitted to enter the acred edifice. Shreds of olotbiug scat tered through the church bear testimony to the terrible nature of the panic which seised the congregation, and through the bole in the roof brick and plaeter continue to fall. When the dying and wounded had been removed from the church Thursday night the firemen turned their attention to the other walls of Shaw's burned building which threatened to topple and begun to take them down, but soon desisted under orders of Coroner Eckhoff, who said they ahould not be demolished until the jury summoned for the inquest had viewed them. This morning a portion of the dangerous walls tumbled, smashing the roof of the wash house of Uevering e hotel, and crashing through the roof of the church. The sacristy is piled high with a collection of umbrellas, overcoats, shawls, prayer books, and other articles which were abandoned by their owners in their terror. A few coins and medals were also nicked up, though no claims for any of the valuables have yet been made. Of the wounded Patrick Lavelley is said to be the only person in immediate danger of death. James M. Shaw, owner of the burned building, has been arrested and held to bail by the Coroner. MENIAL INFIRMITY.

On the arrival of the train from Richmond at Alexandria this morning it was Hii covered that ex-Senator James W. Nye, who, when last seen, occupied a section in the sleeping car, was missing. His boots were still in his berth. He was on his way north from Jacksonville, Florida, with is daughter. Mrs. Vvse. and his servant He retired the previous evening; in usual health. It is supposed he not up in the ight in a dazed condition and walked off or tell on the car while in motion, as he had not been heard from at any of the stations where the train stopped. Some fears ave lately been lelt by his friends that is mental tacuities were waning, and on this account he was induced to join bis daughter in Florida, whither she had gone for the benefit of her health. (Second Dispatch. Washington, Feb. 26. A telegram from Richmond says Senator Nye has been found there safe, and nearly nude. It seemed he slipped out iust as the train started, and concealed himself in the depot. SHIPWRECK. Steamship Foundered In tbe Indian ticonn. London. Feb. 20.

A letter from Annapolis says another cadet has been dis missed from the Naval Academy on ac count of a colored cadet. During this week Gordon Cloude, of Annapolis, cadet engineer, wal ordered to lence with a negro midshipman, which he refused to do. lie was then told to resign, tie would not do that, though he disliked to disobey orders. Ha was then informed that he should coiiBult with his parents. This he did, when his father, Dr. Abraham Cloude, said he would not advise him, eaving it to the young man's Judgement. Dr. Cloude. however, wont to the Super ntendentand told him his Bon was raised as a southerner, and not on social equality with the negroes, and he would not ad' vise him to do what he would not do him self. On this Cloude was expelled oa Wednesday. Incendiarism by Striking Miner. Indianapolis, Feb. 26. The coal shafts ot the Jackson Coal company, Smith. Reed Co., and Veach, Hall & Co.. near Brazil, were burned by incen diaries last night. The miners were out on a strike, and had made frequent threats of violence it the owners held out. Mr. Jackson yesterday gave his miners a IbbI opportunity to resume work, stating that unless they did men would be brought in to take their places. It was reported that lot of colored miners had already reached this city on their way to super sede the strikers, and this precipitated the crime. Loss probably-$10,000 to $15,000 to each mine, with lit t le insurance, as it is understood several insurance companies had canceled their policies, anticipating trouble. Ohio Klver Steamer Sniik.

Trtoy Dealt, of Having Prompted Mil Tllioa'e Testiaway. An Alibi to be Proven u to the Famous Confession. New Yobk. Feb. x. There wae not tbe usual crowd this morning at theTil-toa-ifeecher trial, but all immediately concerned in the suit were promptly in their places. I be cause o' tbis tailing on in attendance was doubtleas owing to the fact that the newspapers published more of Mr. Tracy's address than he was able to deliver yesterday, and the people having read it in advance of delivery were disposed to let Mr. Tracy catch up without their countenance. The following card from Mr. Henry C. Bowen will be published lliia afternoon in New York : "The statements made bv Mr. B. F. Tracy in his opening address to tbe Court and jury in the Brooklyn icaudal esse, so far as said statements refer to me as having been engaged in any conspiracy whatsoever, are malignant falsifications from beginning to end, destitute of even one particle ol truth, aa said Tracy can learn if he will call me to the witness stand, in which event he will find out that 1 do not believe in the doctrine said to be taught by him, 'that lying is justifiable under certain circumstances.' "Henry C. Bowen." "ifew Fori, Fei. 25, 1875." After speaking for nearly an hour, Mr. Tracy reached the point where the news papers lelt him last nigliu He continued: BBECHER 8 CONFESSION. I come to the alleged confession of his guilt that the defendant ia charged with having made to Mr. Moulton and his wife. At the Church committee Mr. Til- ton ssid that his evidence against Henry Ward Beecher was in writing, and he did not then pretend that he had in his pos session any oral confession of Beecher's. In Moulton's statement of Augt et 21, he stated that Beecher had confessed to him, but that it was given in general terms and not specifically. This was challenged, and it was not until his second statement that he came out with it boldly, and lUy would also remember that on his examination here he clothed his language in different terms to what he did in his second statement. You will remember how Moulton on the witness stand made a slip twice in regard to the words " Bexual relations, and how in his second statement be omitted sexual and said when Beecher was confessing to him he used the word relations." Moulton makes and invents the interview of Januarv second with Beech er. Sunday oauie on the first of January, 1871-t and the apology waa written on mat evening, and on the next day, which was the second of January. Moulton says he called on Mr. Beecher and had the inter view. Now, gentlemen, the second of January of that year was New Year's Day, when Mr. Beecher entertained over eigni nunareu uaiiers, uiiu we win snuw you that Moulton had no interview with him. The obiect of these interviews of Til- ton and Moulton with Beecher in 1871 was to procure Tilton's return to the editorship of the Independent. They got BK3SIE TURNER to retract the stories with regard to Til-ton's intimacy with her. The actions of Til-ton and Moulton showed they knew that Bessie Turner circulated these stories, and it was their interest to get her out of the way, to get her out of Brooklyn, so that she might not interfere with their plans. They attempted to put the responsibility of her absence on Beecher for circulating stories with regard to his intimacy with Mrs. Tilton. They were careful to get her retractions of stories against Tilton that she had been instrumental in raising. Do you think, gentlemen, this retraction was obtained to benefit Beecher? You will realize that it was not. This retraction was obtained by Tilton and Moulton, who dreaded that Bessie Turner would appear in court with a diflorent story, and they would have this retraction to bring against her. Waa not it remarkable that the man who was alleged lo have sent her away made no effort to obtain a retraction of her stories against him ? But Francis D. Moulton is the man who makes the suggestion of sending her away when he tells Beecher that Tilton is not able to send her away or pay her bills. Therefore when retrac tions were being got from every person who had circulated stories about Tilton. this girl it was determined to eend out of the way, and needier said, "let ner go away, and if Tilton ia unable I will bear tbe expenses." BEHAVIOR INCOMPATIBLE WITH ADULT, ERY. On January 3d or 4th there is an interview between Beecher aid Tilton at Moulton's house, when Moulton upbraids Tilton for not showing hospitality at meet ing with Beecher. Was this the action of a friend when speaking to an injured hus band for not shaking hands with his wife's betrayer? Then comes the letter of February 7th to make more complete the reconciliation which these parties Bought. Mrs. Tilton wasaggrieved at the conduct of her husband, aud to her Beecher writes a letter asking her to live with her hllfbancl and make his home happy. In his letter to Moulton he said his object was to ace Mrs. Tilton'a husband trusting and loving her with more even than the old love. Was'this likely to be the conduct and expressions of a man who waa charged with adultery r Counsel would not dwell on the remaining letters which passed between the par ties in that winter or the remarkable story which the plaintiff told of his inter view with Beecher over the paternity of his last Child. The court here took its usual recess. After recess Traev reviewed the plain tiff's relations with Mrs. Woodhull, claim ing that Tilton'a intimacy with her was not in the interests of Beecher but of his free choice, and that he stimulated Mrs. Woodhull's publication of scandal instead of Irving to suppress it. Tracv then said thai it, lone as Tilton waa prosperous he waa as silent as the graye concerning this scandal. As soon, liovevtr, as lie waa dowp and felt the need of Beecher's hand to lift (liB) HP i be?'n to agitate the matter. At this time Tilton had overdrawn his sooount in Woodruff Si Robin- son's, and had no money. The importance of this would be obvious at another point of the case. Mr. Beecher's refusal to preside at the meeting in Steinway Hall waa egrrded as a sign or hostility by Til Ion BEICHIR ilASp"AII.iTD, In the following year when Tilton re turned from his lecturing tour theGolden Age required money, and Bowen was pusiiea log money vnica Aiiop safa ne owed him. He makes a personal state: ment, sets it in type for publication iu the Golden Age, and in It he incorporates a letter of January 1, 1871. He took one cl these copies to Wilkinson and told him he should publish that statement un less Beecher did him iusJLice. No demand for jcutioa wae aaade front Bowea, for that would aot ialueaea Wilkiasoa. Wilkin son mid if that waa pabluhed it would ereai. a aoaadal which would abaka Ctmsteadosa, and advised hint aot to d. it. 1 illoa paid that Heocher never oBcr-ed him help in being kept ia his situation oa the Independent If counsel could how that this publication was threatened by Tiltoa to compel a recognition from Beecher aa to the juste ssa of hie claim against Bowea the it would be showa that this publiealioa wae threatened for tbe purpose of blackmail. He aever intended lo publish this statement, but had tbe two copies atrnck off onlv to compel payment of the claim. Wilkinson promised to aid him ia getting money from Bowea if it wae justly due him, aa Wilkinson mid it won Id never do to have this published, and, gentlemen, oa the 4th of April Tilton had his fiuou ia his pocket from Bowen, bnt I do aot say, gentlemen, that the obtaining of thia money was blackmail, for it might bave beea due lo Tilton. Tracy aaid, in approaching another part of hie subject, he desired lo make a PERSONAL EXPLANATION. To thia Beach objected, unleu Tracy would go on the witness stand and verify his explanation, and Tracy replied that tbis he waa quite willing to do. Tbe argument waa engaged in by Evarta and Porter, the latter stating that Beecher would choose what counsel he pleased to defend him. Beach disclaimed that he dictated what counsel Beecher should employ, but he was of th opinion that General Tracy had already exceeded the bounds of propriety laid down in the counsel's opening. Judge ieilBon said it waa the duty of counsel to .peak only of th facta which be intended to prove. Porter aaid th faot which General Tracy referred to were facte which they intended to prove, and here the matter dropped. 1 racy men continued : 1 am charged with preparing questions for the plaintiffs wile before she appeared before the committee. A he plain till savs I told him so. Now, gentlemen, we will show that I met Mrs, Tilton only thirty or forty minutes before she appeared before the committee, and that I never told the plaintiff so. 1 was introduced to her by her step father, Judge Morse, and it was so dark that I could hardly see her face. I went to the committee and prepared them for Mrs. Tilton, and I raid to her only tbe words, "Mrs. Tilton, do not feel offended at any questions that may be asked you, as they are not intended to give you offense." No such conversation as reported by the plaintiff ever occurred between Mrs, lilton and me, and it Is an unneces sary reflection cut by the plaintiff on his wire. When I was consulted about the Wood-hull publication by Woodruff I did not then know Beecher nn Moulton. I then understood that my services were not to be professional, and were only aa a friend of the or ro or Woodrun a ft , and to be merely a friendly consultation. I desired to examine the papers in Moulton's possession, and therefore had an interview with him at his house. The Woodhull publication was gone over paragraph by paragraph, and Moulton DENIED THE PISTOL SCENE, as he did here also. He denied giving Mrs. Woodhull the information in the publication. In reply to my question aa to how the story of Mrs. Woodhull arose, Moulton said I had better see Tilton. Tilton came up there before I left, with a manuscript, which he began reading to me. This was substantially the "True Story," but the true story as a complete document, was never shown to me, and the only charges contained in that document were those of improper proposals. Tilton denied being the author of Mrs. Wood Hulls scandal, as he also did here. They say that I proposed silence. Now, tbis theory could not be true unless niton had said that the publication of his true story was the only way of meeting the Woonhnll scandal, aud tint between the two things the safest course would be to preserve silence. tracy's engagement as counsel. Thia waa the last time I wss consulted bv these parties, and I stepped down and out of the case in December, 1872, and was out ot it until alter tbe publication of the Bacon letter, when Moulton sent for me and Baid he wanted me to come again into the case. I was very angry on hearing ot this publication. When I learned of Tilton'a preferring charges of adul.ery against Beecher, and that he had changed his course of action, I went to him aud told him I did aot consider myself bound to keep truBt with him, and was released from my promise not to appear as counsel for Beecher. I have consulted with my associates, and they considered 1 was within the bounds of propriety in appearing in this case. This, gen tlemen, said counsel, is the history of my connection with the matter. The Court here adjourned, Tracy will continue Monday. WASHINGTON. PROSPECTS FOB THE NEW REVENUE BILL. Washington. Feb. 26. The Senate Finance committee has reported the Tax and Tariff bill without amendment and without recommendation, A majority of the committee would have preferred to amend the bill in various particulars, but at least four of the eight members now in Washington believed that to amend the bill at all would imperil Its enactment, in consequence not only of the conflicting views in the Senate, but of the difficulty of reaching the bill when returned to the Speaker's table in the House for action on any amendments which the Senate and a majority of the House might be willing to agree to. A number of Senators will, however, move amendments in the senate, some with a view to improve the bill and others with the purpoae of killing It altogether. VIRGINIUS MATTER NOT SETTLED. . The announcement of formal signature to the terms of settlement of the Virgin-ius question seems to be premature, as it is known from the best authority that the final conclusion of the arrangement is to await formal recognition of the new Government of King Alfonso by the United States. Credentials and instructions under this head are now on their way to Minister Cashing. The preliminary agreement stipulates for the payment of $18,000 in full satisfaction of the Virginius claims of a personal character, and the abandonment on the part of Spain of all re clamations against the United States. The autograph letter from Alfonso to the President is a purely formal one, only an nounclng his accession to the throne, and expressing his desire for a continuance of good relations. No day has yet been fixed by tbe Secretary of State for presenta tion ot mis letter to ine President by the Spanish Minister, but it is presumed it will not lake place until the Government of King Alfonso has been recognized by our Government through its representa tive at Madrid and pending questions shall be satisfactorily adjusted.

The laaaaere at Tlewed Frwa Demse ratio StudntUt. Nobody U Blame bet Us Slaeklered Blacks. Whitewash for the White Well Laid Oa. League WAatiiSKiTow, Feb. M. Representative. Hpwer, of Peoawylvaaia, and O'Brien, of Mary land, of the Miasusippi special committee, have nulled ia a report con cluding a. follows : From a review of the whole testimony we briefly Mat eur eoa- elusions: 1. That in the city of Virksburg and county of Warren the while, pay about nmeiynine per cent, or the taxes, which bave grown enormously oppressive, and that the negroes chitny sssiss, collect and disburse them. t That the debt of the citv, which, in 1869 waa $130,000, is bow $1,400,000 aa far as can be found out, that it baa accumulated lo thia sum by reckless and improvident legislation by Republican officials, and is a grievous burden imposed upon a population of 11,000 people, lees than half of whom are whites, S. That a corrupt and infamous ring composed of negro officials baa existed in aaid city and county for several years, wno, py lorgeries, peculation and system-atiaed fraud, on the revenues, have impaired the public credit, impoverished ihe people, and augmented tales to rales re- aulting in practical confiscation. 4. That P. Crosby, Sheriff aud lax collector, waa a political and personal friend of the corrupt officials, and by his power in summoning juries their conviction was rendered practically impossible. That tbe Sheriff admitted to bail hia political frienda when charged with the gravest offenses on worthless bonds, and waa the chief impediment to th administration of justice in the Courts. 6. That Judge Brown had publicly declared that the prosecution of Cardoso, leader ot the ring, lor malfeasance in office, was persecution, when no honest msn in Vickaburg of either partv doubts his guilt, and by his partisanship had destroyed public confidence in the tribunal over which he presided. o. 1 hat the taxpayers' League was organized irrespective of party or color, and that its sole object, aa stated in its constitution and declared in its meetings, was to secure capable officials and honest government. 7. That the bonds ol Crosby, as SheriS and tax collector, were insufficient, if not absolutely worthless. S. i hat the Board of Supervisors were advised of the utter insufficiency of Crosby's bonds, but corruptly declined to compel him, aa the law required, to give good bonds. V. 1 hat the time having arrived for the collection of taxes, the taxpayers, having no adequate remedy, were justified in their demand for Crosby's resignation, and that hie resignation was voluntary, and not the result of violence or threats. 10. The conflict of December 7, resulting in the killing of two whites and twentyfour colored persons, was solely and wholly caused by an armed attempt of the negroes of Warren county to invade Vickaburg; that this invasion was incited and instigated by Crosby, and that Crosby was advised and encouraged to take this course, and was promised aid in it by Governor Ames. 11. That the defense of the city was made under direction of the Mayor, and all the preparations and conduct of citi-xens wiwjusiiild by nature', highest law, , self-preservation. They acted in defense of their homes. Any other course would have been cruelty to the families of both races, for as Agent Packer testified, it was a mercy to the women and children, white and black, that the negroes were prevented from entering 'the city. 12. That the purpose of the InvnderB was only limited by the will of their leaders, and that if they had succeeded in en tering the city they would have been helped by numbers of well armed and organized negroes in the city who were ready to co-operate with them. Id. That there is not and has not been any organized resistance at Vicksburg on the part of the whites to lawful authority, but on the contrary the white people. owning nearly all the property and paying nearly all the taxes, are sincerely desirous of keeping peace and good order. 1 heir business interests fpve strength to this desire, and the patience they have shown under accumulated wrongs and outrage, such as citizens or a northern city would not tolerate for a day, is a marvel of civilization. 14. There is no White League, or political organization, in Mississippi, whose obiect is to deny colored men, because of color or for any reason, any rights or privileges guaranteed by the law, nor is there any political organization of whites which haa any other object than to secure the election of honest and capable officials. 15. That the call of the Governor on the President for troops was based on partisan statements devoid of truth, At the time the call was made Vicksburg was as quiet and as peaceable as any city of the same population of the United States, and has so remained to tbe present. 10. After Crosby's resignation Flanagan waa elected Sheriff and took peaceable possession of the office. Whether he (Crosby) was legal Sheriff was a question for the courts alone to decide, and yet in shameless disregard of civil law and of the rights of citizens, Flanagan has been marehed out of the Court House by United States troops. 17. That the condition of Mississippi is indeed deplorable, with a Governor who has declared that if not in office he would not live In the State if given the whole of it, with corruption prevailing in counties where negroes and carpet baggers have control, with property depre ciating and taxes increasing, ruin can be arrested only by restoring to the people honeet government and control of their own affairs, without interference from the federal arrnv XLIIld CONbKtbS-SECOND SESSION.

Tb Cele.tlKl Uenllrman Pnla a Head On Friend and la Arretted -Hie Aceaant af th Fracas. Cl.v.land Leader. Sam Lee and John Lee are a rounle of almond-eyed Celestials who have lately opened a "washee-weahee" shop on St. Clair street. And hardly have these distinguished gentlemen perfumed the air wun soap-suds beiorc they appear before the public in a light that 'stamps them aa possessing many of tbe features supposed to be the exclusive rights of the native born. The noonday sun was peeping In at the indows of the police clerk's olnco vester- dsy, and the clerk was putting on his coat preparatory to dinner, when Sam and John came panting in to procure a piaper- on wnicn to place Wau Lee and two of his subordinates in iail. Br divers signs and many gestures the two visitors made known the fact lhat Wau and his "subs" had assaulted 8am and John, and had done so to their injury and against the peace and security of the State. Being impressed with this fact the clerk prepared a writ, to which John affixed a couple of tea-chest scrawls as his signa ture anu wnicn was tnen placed in tbe hands of a policeman toexecute. The officer found Wau Lee. Wau Ranir and Hip Lo, the latter two the aiders and abettors, at the shop on Ontario street and escorted them to the stations, where iney were cnargea wun assault and battery and locked up. But Wau did not propose to lose a whole day and sent for a lawyer, wno Bailed the three out and sent them back to the soapy regions of their nnaergrouna resiaenoe, It was In this clean but misty region that a Leader reporter found the nimble Wau and his friends. The liro .hum. eyed laundryman who has already tasted so much of fame, smiled a welcome and prepared a chair; while Wau Seng stood in front of the stove and kept bis thoughts to nimsen. Wau then told the story of his wrongs. 'Ma nn ilh W. Q.. . .1... Q. T - b " uci'g ,u Bim oaiu ueu. Him gottee laundly on Clair street. Me aakee him how muchee niakee on shirtee.

Wau waa told that he was not In be taken agaio, and the reporter endeavored to eiplain that his mission was one of love, and that the wrongs of Wau were to be given to the world through the medium of the press. But tbe labor seemed lost, as when the reporter left Wau was stand ing in a stream or suds, with a wandering look upon his face, and listening to the eloquent Wau Seng, who was endeavoring to inform Mr. Wau that the reporter was some "aamee oooK pedlee," who, It seems, is known to even the benighted mind of the "Heathen Chinee."

The first sale o( lands by the Centinela Colony company, of California, whose ad vertisement appears elsewhere, look place on the company's lands near Los Angeles February 16. About a thousand acres were disposed of at an average of $40 per acre", or an aggregate of $40,000, at which rate the entire 25,000 acres belonging to the company would be worth nearly one million dollar?. Among the purchasers at the sale were Hon. J. Ross Browne, lately United States Minister to Chin Mr. G. H. Washburue, and General J. II. Shields, of New England. Colonel D. Freeman, who sold the Centinela to thfl company at $10.05 per acre, bought batfs' 144 acres of the same land at the ale at $62 per acre, ' The Los Angeles Express speaking of the present appearance of the country unrounding Centinela says : '. . It is impossible to exaggerate the beauty of the approaches to Centinela and of the ranch itself.

A great crowd continue to linger in the neighborhood of St, Andrew's Church, the scene of the calamity last evening, but only reporters and officials are permitted to enter the acred edifice. Shreds of olotbiug scat tered through the church bear testimony to the terrible nature of the panic which seised the congregation, and through the bole in the roof brick and plaeter continue to fall. When the dying and wounded had been removed from the church Thursday night the firemen turned their attention to the other walls of Shaw's burned building which threatened to topple and begun to take them down, but soon desisted under orders of Coroner Eckhoff, who said they ahould not be demolished until the jury summoned for the inquest had viewed them. This morning a portion of the dangerous walls tumbled, smashing the roof of the wash house of Uevering e hotel, and crashing through the roof of the church. The sacristy is piled high with a collection of umbrellas, overcoats, shawls, prayer books, and other articles which were abandoned by their owners in their terror. A few coins and medals were also nicked up, though no claims for any of the valuables have yet been made. Of the wounded Patrick Lavelley is said to be the only person in immediate danger of death. James M. Shaw, owner of the burned building, has been arrested and held to bail by the Coroner. MENIAL INFIRMITY.

Reed Co., and Veach, Hall & Co.. near Brazil, were burned by incen diaries last night. The miners were out on a strike, and had made frequent threats of violence it the owners held out. Mr. Jackson yesterday gave his miners a IbbI opportunity to resume work, stating that unless they did men would be brought in to take their places. It was reported that lot of colored miners had already reached this city on their way to super sede the strikers, and this precipitated the crime. Loss probably-$10,000 to $15,000 to each mine, with lit t le insurance, as it is understood several insurance companies had canceled their policies, anticipating trouble. Ohio Klver Steamer Sniik.

Trtoy Dealt, of Having Prompted Mil Tllioa'e Testiaway. An Alibi to be Proven u to the Famous Confession. New Yobk. Feb. x. There wae not tbe usual crowd this morning at theTil-toa-ifeecher trial, but all immediately concerned in the suit were promptly in their places. I be cause o' tbis tailing on in attendance was doubtleas owing to the fact that the newspapers published more of Mr. Tracy's address than he was able to deliver yesterday, and the people having read it in advance of delivery were disposed to let Mr. Tracy catch up without their countenance. The following card from Mr. Henry C. Bowen will be published lliia afternoon in New York : "The statements made bv Mr. B. F. Tracy in his opening address to tbe Court and jury in the Brooklyn icaudal esse, so far as said statements refer to me as having been engaged in any conspiracy whatsoever, are malignant falsifications from beginning to end, destitute of even one particle ol truth, aa said Tracy can learn if he will call me to the witness stand, in which event he will find out that 1 do not believe in the doctrine said to be taught by him, 'that lying is justifiable under certain circumstances.' "Henry C. Bowen." "ifew Fori, Fei. 25, 1875." After speaking for nearly an hour, Mr. Tracy reached the point where the news papers lelt him last nigliu He continued: BBECHER 8 CONFESSION. I come to the alleged confession of his guilt that the defendant ia charged with having made to Mr. Moulton and his wife. At the Church committee Mr. Til- ton ssid that his evidence against Henry Ward Beecher was in writing, and he did not then pretend that he had in his pos session any oral confession of Beecher's. In Moulton's statement of Augt et 21, he stated that Beecher had confessed to him, but that it was given in general terms and not specifically. This was challenged, and it was not until his second statement that he came out with it boldly, and lUy would also remember that on his examination here he clothed his language in different terms to what he did in his second statement. You will remember how Moulton on the witness stand made a slip twice in regard to the words " Bexual relations, and how in his second statement be omitted sexual and said when Beecher was confessing to him he used the word relations." Moulton makes and invents the interview of Januarv second with Beech er. Sunday oauie on the first of January, 1871-t and the apology waa written on mat evening, and on the next day, which was the second of January. Moulton says he called on Mr. Beecher and had the inter view. Now, gentlemen, the second of January of that year was New Year's Day, when Mr. Beecher entertained over eigni nunareu uaiiers, uiiu we win snuw you that Moulton had no interview with him. The obiect of these interviews of Til- ton and Moulton with Beecher in 1871 was to procure Tilton's return to the editorship of the Independent. They got BK3SIE TURNER to retract the stories with regard to Til-ton's intimacy with her. The actions of Til-ton and Moulton showed they knew that Bessie Turner circulated these stories, and it was their interest to get her out of the way, to get her out of Brooklyn, so that she might not interfere with their plans. They attempted to put the responsibility of her absence on Beecher for circulating stories with regard to his intimacy with Mrs. Tilton. They were careful to get her retractions of stories against Tilton that she had been instrumental in raising. Do you think, gentlemen, this retraction was obtained to benefit Beecher? You will realize that it was not. This retraction was obtained by Tilton and Moulton, who dreaded that Bessie Turner would appear in court with a diflorent story, and they would have this retraction to bring against her. Waa not it remarkable that the man who was alleged lo have sent her away made no effort to obtain a retraction of her stories against him ? But Francis D. Moulton is the man who makes the suggestion of sending her away when he tells Beecher that Tilton is not able to send her away or pay her bills. Therefore when retrac tions were being got from every person who had circulated stories about Tilton. this girl it was determined to eend out of the way, and needier said, "let ner go away, and if Tilton ia unable I will bear tbe expenses." BEHAVIOR INCOMPATIBLE WITH ADULT, ERY. On January 3d or 4th there is an interview between Beecher aid Tilton at Moulton's house, when Moulton upbraids Tilton for not showing hospitality at meet ing with Beecher. Was this the action of a friend when speaking to an injured hus band for not shaking hands with his wife's betrayer? Then comes the letter of February 7th to make more complete the reconciliation which these parties Bought. Mrs. Tilton wasaggrieved at the conduct of her husband, aud to her Beecher writes a letter asking her to live with her hllfbancl and make his home happy. In his letter to Moulton he said his object was to ace Mrs. Tilton'a husband trusting and loving her with more even than the old love. Was'this likely to be the conduct and expressions of a man who waa charged with adultery r Counsel would not dwell on the remaining letters which passed between the par ties in that winter or the remarkable story which the plaintiff told of his inter view with Beecher over the paternity of his last Child. The court here took its usual recess. After recess Traev reviewed the plain tiff's relations with Mrs. Woodhull, claim ing that Tilton'a intimacy with her was not in the interests of Beecher but of his free choice, and that he stimulated Mrs. Woodhull's publication of scandal instead of Irving to suppress it. Tracv then said thai it, lone as Tilton waa prosperous he waa as silent as the graye concerning this scandal. As soon, liovevtr, as lie waa dowp and felt the need of Beecher's hand to lift (liB) HP i be?'n to agitate the matter. At this time Tilton had overdrawn his sooount in Woodruff Si Robin- son's, and had no money. The importance of this would be obvious at another point of the case. Mr. Beecher's refusal to preside at the meeting in Steinway Hall waa egrrded as a sign or hostility by Til Ion BEICHIR ilASp"AII.iTD, In the following year when Tilton re turned from his lecturing tour theGolden Age required money, and Bowen was pusiiea log money vnica Aiiop safa ne owed him. He makes a personal state: ment, sets it in type for publication iu the Golden Age, and in It he incorporates a letter of January 1, 1871. He took one cl these copies to Wilkinson and told him he should publish that statement un less Beecher did him iusJLice. No demand for jcutioa wae aaade front Bowea, for that would aot ialueaea Wilkiasoa. Wilkin son mid if that waa pabluhed it would ereai. a aoaadal which would abaka Ctmsteadosa, and advised hint aot to d. it. 1 illoa paid that Heocher never oBcr-ed him help in being kept ia his situation oa the Independent If counsel could how that this publication was threatened by Tiltoa to compel a recognition from Beecher aa to the juste ssa of hie claim against Bowea the it would be showa that this publiealioa wae threatened for tbe purpose of blackmail. He aever intended lo publish this statement, but had tbe two copies atrnck off onlv to compel payment of the claim. Wilkinson promised to aid him ia getting money from Bowea if it wae justly due him, aa Wilkinson mid it won Id never do to have this published, and, gentlemen, oa the 4th of April Tilton had his fiuou ia his pocket from Bowen, bnt I do aot say, gentlemen, that the obtaining of thia money was blackmail, for it might bave beea due lo Tilton. Tracy aaid, in approaching another part of hie subject, he desired lo make a PERSONAL EXPLANATION. To thia Beach objected, unleu Tracy would go on the witness stand and verify his explanation, and Tracy replied that tbis he waa quite willing to do. Tbe argument waa engaged in by Evarta and Porter, the latter stating that Beecher would choose what counsel he pleased to defend him. Beach disclaimed that he dictated what counsel Beecher should employ, but he was of th opinion that General Tracy had already exceeded the bounds of propriety laid down in the counsel's opening. Judge ieilBon said it waa the duty of counsel to .peak only of th facta which be intended to prove. Porter aaid th faot which General Tracy referred to were facte which they intended to prove, and here the matter dropped. 1 racy men continued : 1 am charged with preparing questions for the plaintiffs wile before she appeared before the committee. A he plain till savs I told him so. Now, gentlemen, we will show that I met Mrs, Tilton only thirty or forty minutes before she appeared before the committee, and that I never told the plaintiff so. 1 was introduced to her by her step father, Judge Morse, and it was so dark that I could hardly see her face. I went to the committee and prepared them for Mrs. Tilton, and I raid to her only tbe words, "Mrs. Tilton, do not feel offended at any questions that may be asked you, as they are not intended to give you offense." No such conversation as reported by the plaintiff ever occurred between Mrs, lilton and me, and it Is an unneces sary reflection cut by the plaintiff on his wire. When I was consulted about the Wood-hull publication by Woodruff I did not then know Beecher nn Moulton. I then understood that my services were not to be professional, and were only aa a friend of the or ro or Woodrun a ft , and to be merely a friendly consultation. I desired to examine the papers in Moulton's possession, and therefore had an interview with him at his house. The Woodhull publication was gone over paragraph by paragraph, and Moulton DENIED THE PISTOL SCENE, as he did here also. He denied giving Mrs. Woodhull the information in the publication. In reply to my question aa to how the story of Mrs. Woodhull arose, Moulton said I had better see Tilton. Tilton came up there before I left, with a manuscript, which he began reading to me. This was substantially the "True Story," but the true story as a complete document, was never shown to me, and the only charges contained in that document were those of improper proposals. Tilton denied being the author of Mrs. Wood Hulls scandal, as he also did here. They say that I proposed silence. Now, tbis theory could not be true unless niton had said that the publication of his true story was the only way of meeting the Woonhnll scandal, aud tint between the two things the safest course would be to preserve silence. tracy's engagement as counsel. Thia waa the last time I wss consulted bv these parties, and I stepped down and out of the case in December, 1872, and was out ot it until alter tbe publication of the Bacon letter, when Moulton sent for me and Baid he wanted me to come again into the case. I was very angry on hearing ot this publication. When I learned of Tilton'a preferring charges of adul.ery against Beecher, and that he had changed his course of action, I went to him aud told him I did aot consider myself bound to keep truBt with him, and was released from my promise not to appear as counsel for Beecher. I have consulted with my associates, and they considered 1 was within the bounds of propriety in appearing in this case. This, gen tlemen, said counsel, is the history of my connection with the matter. The Court here adjourned, Tracy will continue Monday. WASHINGTON. PROSPECTS FOB THE NEW REVENUE BILL. Washington. Feb. 26. The Senate Finance committee has reported the Tax and Tariff bill without amendment and without recommendation, A majority of the committee would have preferred to amend the bill in various particulars, but at least four of the eight members now in Washington believed that to amend the bill at all would imperil Its enactment, in consequence not only of the conflicting views in the Senate, but of the difficulty of reaching the bill when returned to the Speaker's table in the House for action on any amendments which the Senate and a majority of the House might be willing to agree to. A number of Senators will, however, move amendments in the senate, some with a view to improve the bill and others with the purpoae of killing It altogether. VIRGINIUS MATTER NOT SETTLED. . The announcement of formal signature to the terms of settlement of the Virgin-ius question seems to be premature, as it is known from the best authority that the final conclusion of the arrangement is to await formal recognition of the new Government of King Alfonso by the United States. Credentials and instructions under this head are now on their way to Minister Cashing. The preliminary agreement stipulates for the payment of $18,000 in full satisfaction of the Virginius claims of a personal character, and the abandonment on the part of Spain of all re clamations against the United States. The autograph letter from Alfonso to the President is a purely formal one, only an nounclng his accession to the throne, and expressing his desire for a continuance of good relations. No day has yet been fixed by tbe Secretary of State for presenta tion ot mis letter to ine President by the Spanish Minister, but it is presumed it will not lake place until the Government of King Alfonso has been recognized by our Government through its representa tive at Madrid and pending questions shall be satisfactorily adjusted.

The laaaaere at Tlewed Frwa Demse ratio StudntUt. Nobody U Blame bet Us Slaeklered Blacks. Whitewash for the White Well Laid Oa. League WAatiiSKiTow, Feb. M. Representative. Hpwer, of Peoawylvaaia, and O'Brien, of Mary land, of the Miasusippi special committee, have nulled ia a report con cluding a. follows : From a review of the whole testimony we briefly Mat eur eoa- elusions: 1. That in the city of Virksburg and county of Warren the while, pay about nmeiynine per cent, or the taxes, which bave grown enormously oppressive, and that the negroes chitny sssiss, collect and disburse them. t That the debt of the citv, which, in 1869 waa $130,000, is bow $1,400,000 aa far as can be found out, that it baa accumulated lo thia sum by reckless and improvident legislation by Republican officials, and is a grievous burden imposed upon a population of 11,000 people, lees than half of whom are whites, S. That a corrupt and infamous ring composed of negro officials baa existed in aaid city and county for several years, wno, py lorgeries, peculation and system-atiaed fraud, on the revenues, have impaired the public credit, impoverished ihe people, and augmented tales to rales re- aulting in practical confiscation. 4. That P. Crosby, Sheriff aud lax collector, waa a political and personal friend of the corrupt officials, and by his power in summoning juries their conviction was rendered practically impossible. That tbe Sheriff admitted to bail hia political frienda when charged with the gravest offenses on worthless bonds, and waa the chief impediment to th administration of justice in the Courts. 6. That Judge Brown had publicly declared that the prosecution of Cardoso, leader ot the ring, lor malfeasance in office, was persecution, when no honest msn in Vickaburg of either partv doubts his guilt, and by his partisanship had destroyed public confidence in the tribunal over which he presided. o. 1 hat the taxpayers' League was organized irrespective of party or color, and that its sole object, aa stated in its constitution and declared in its meetings, was to secure capable officials and honest government. 7. That the bonds ol Crosby, as SheriS and tax collector, were insufficient, if not absolutely worthless. S. i hat the Board of Supervisors were advised of the utter insufficiency of Crosby's bonds, but corruptly declined to compel him, aa the law required, to give good bonds. V. 1 hat the time having arrived for the collection of taxes, the taxpayers, having no adequate remedy, were justified in their demand for Crosby's resignation, and that hie resignation was voluntary, and not the result of violence or threats. 10. The conflict of December 7, resulting in the killing of two whites and twentyfour colored persons, was solely and wholly caused by an armed attempt of the negroes of Warren county to invade Vickaburg; that this invasion was incited and instigated by Crosby, and that Crosby was advised and encouraged to take this course, and was promised aid in it by Governor Ames. 11. That the defense of the city was made under direction of the Mayor, and all the preparations and conduct of citi-xens wiwjusiiild by nature', highest law, , self-preservation. They acted in defense of their homes. Any other course would have been cruelty to the families of both races, for as Agent Packer testified, it was a mercy to the women and children, white and black, that the negroes were prevented from entering 'the city. 12. That the purpose of the InvnderB was only limited by the will of their leaders, and that if they had succeeded in en tering the city they would have been helped by numbers of well armed and organized negroes in the city who were ready to co-operate with them. Id. That there is not and has not been any organized resistance at Vicksburg on the part of the whites to lawful authority, but on the contrary the white people. owning nearly all the property and paying nearly all the taxes, are sincerely desirous of keeping peace and good order. 1 heir business interests fpve strength to this desire, and the patience they have shown under accumulated wrongs and outrage, such as citizens or a northern city would not tolerate for a day, is a marvel of civilization. 14. There is no White League, or political organization, in Mississippi, whose obiect is to deny colored men, because of color or for any reason, any rights or privileges guaranteed by the law, nor is there any political organization of whites which haa any other object than to secure the election of honest and capable officials. 15. That the call of the Governor on the President for troops was based on partisan statements devoid of truth, At the time the call was made Vicksburg was as quiet and as peaceable as any city of the same population of the United States, and has so remained to tbe present. 10. After Crosby's resignation Flanagan waa elected Sheriff and took peaceable possession of the office. Whether he (Crosby) was legal Sheriff was a question for the courts alone to decide, and yet in shameless disregard of civil law and of the rights of citizens, Flanagan has been marehed out of the Court House by United States troops. 17. That the condition of Mississippi is indeed deplorable, with a Governor who has declared that if not in office he would not live In the State if given the whole of it, with corruption prevailing in counties where negroes and carpet baggers have control, with property depre ciating and taxes increasing, ruin can be arrested only by restoring to the people honeet government and control of their own affairs, without interference from the federal arrnv XLIIld CONbKtbS-SECOND SESSION.

Tb Cele.tlKl Uenllrman Pnla a Head On Friend and la Arretted -Hie Aceaant af th Fracas. Cl.v.land Leader. Sam Lee and John Lee are a rounle of almond-eyed Celestials who have lately opened a "washee-weahee" shop on St. Clair street. And hardly have these distinguished gentlemen perfumed the air wun soap-suds beiorc they appear before the public in a light that 'stamps them aa possessing many of tbe features supposed to be the exclusive rights of the native born. The noonday sun was peeping In at the indows of the police clerk's olnco vester- dsy, and the clerk was putting on his coat preparatory to dinner, when Sam and John came panting in to procure a piaper- on wnicn to place Wau Lee and two of his subordinates in iail. Br divers signs and many gestures the two visitors made known the fact lhat Wau and his "subs" had assaulted 8am and John, and had done so to their injury and against the peace and security of the State. Being impressed with this fact the clerk prepared a writ, to which John affixed a couple of tea-chest scrawls as his signa ture anu wnicn was tnen placed in tbe hands of a policeman toexecute. The officer found Wau Lee. Wau Ranir and Hip Lo, the latter two the aiders and abettors, at the shop on Ontario street and escorted them to the stations, where iney were cnargea wun assault and battery and locked up. But Wau did not propose to lose a whole day and sent for a lawyer, wno Bailed the three out and sent them back to the soapy regions of their nnaergrouna resiaenoe, It was In this clean but misty region that a Leader reporter found the nimble Wau and his friends. The liro .hum. eyed laundryman who has already tasted so much of fame, smiled a welcome and prepared a chair; while Wau Seng stood in front of the stove and kept bis thoughts to nimsen. Wau then told the story of his wrongs. 'Ma nn ilh W. Q.. . .1... Q. T - b " uci'g ,u Bim oaiu ueu. Him gottee laundly on Clair street. Me aakee him how muchee niakee on shirtee.

"Wau Seng he hittee Sam Lee back and knockee him in washee tub. Wau Seng hit welly dam hard, and Sam Lee falle soon and make hesp cry. John Lee him then hittee me and me hittee John.

Me Bend for liar and him gettee me out. Want takee me some more?" Wau waa told that he was not In be taken agaio, and the reporter endeavored to eiplain that his mission was one of love, and that the wrongs of Wau were to be given to the world through the medium of the press. But tbe labor seemed lost, as when the reporter left Wau was stand ing in a stream or suds, with a wandering look upon his face, and listening to the eloquent Wau Seng, who was endeavoring to inform Mr. Wau that the reporter was some "aamee oooK pedlee," who, It seems, is known to even the benighted mind of the "Heathen Chinee."
