BY TELEGRAPH TO THK OHIO STATE JOURSAL X ? Which Is to Say the Croaj-Quet- tioning Now Begins. He Deales It All Agals with Belter atel Emphasis, And Protests that he Never Anything Improper. Did "Old Whig" gives us some nubby re flections on moral reformers, which we would be glad to publish if their publi cation would do any good. The difficul ty is, that our correspondent addresses himself to a class of impracticable men prohibitionists and the like who never reason. Their reasoning faculties are of a site to exclude more than ene idea at a time, and even that one is usually narrow ?d looked upon but from one side. Tlieir mlnfl's become pregnant with thia one idea, ml nv farther conception is impossible. You might as well reason with a ateerfor nnt oivinir milk attempt to perauade a prohibitionist to do anything of a fruitful or practicable nature for temperance. Whatever may be said as to the substance, the form of the City Reports for the year just closed ia more eatiafaetory than we have had for some time Pt. The statement of bonded and floating indebtedness is especially clear and satisfactory. Any body can understand it; and I the fact that the debt did not increase during the past' year, while the handsome sum of $22,630.02 remains to the credit of the Sinking Fund, after redeeming nearly $5000 in bonds, is very gratifying to the taxpayer. It is a notable fact tbt a large share of the bonded debt standi for productive real estate which is yearly increasing in value, and for Water Works, which may be expected to pay a revenue to the city. A Reporter' Impressions. Cincinm.lt Commercial Special. I must confess, that after hearing all Beechcr's evidence thus far, some parts of it have not impreaaed me favorably. He liaa sometimes appeared to bs holding back; he has sometimes been rather too skillful in explanation; he has occasion-1 ally used language to arouse prejudice; some of his kissing experiences have been unattractive, and his lacrymal displays on the wilneas atand liftve at times been extremely disagreeable. The Grand 'Army of the "Republic, which holds its next reunion in Chicago in Mav. extenda an invitation to all sur viving soldiers of the late war throughout tho Union, "who regard the flag of the Unitfd States as the emblem of undivided and indivisible Nationality." No mat-br whether he wore the blue or the gray, if that i his feeling and opinion now, he twill be welcome ana recognized as a OToht rood fellow, for whom the landlord will be requested to fill the glass until it rasa over. Letter from California state that the Eastern drain of gold from that State is demoralizing it trade. Everybody who ewes a dollar East hurries up and remits to net the advantage of the premium, and the foreign capitalists remit it toeell while it is hirh. (meeting to brine it back at a reduced figure. Not less than sixteen or seventeen million dollars have already been shipped from San Francisco, and the drain goes on at tue rale of a minion week. The Augusta (Ga.) Constitutionalist says great suffering and embarrassment prevail in that Slate from the stringency at the timea. The planters complain that they have no mnnev. and manv men in professional and mechanical walks of life have either tost their places altogether or eke submitted to a reduction of salary which scarcely makes two ends meet, from month to month. Thirteen Illinois railways are in the bands of receivers. These roads aggregate 2287 miles in length, and owe $04,-435,921, or nearly $30,000 per mile. They owe to the 8tate'$l?l,644 of taxes which they are unable to pay, and about ten times as much to counties, cities and towns. The bankruptcy of the roads ia attributed to the Granger laws regulating .them. At a meeting of Maryland first mortgage bondholders of the Chioago, Danville e4 Vincennea railway, at Baltimore, Monday-, a report waa read charging the managers f the road with diverting its earnings e crivate benefit, and recommending fpreatotwee under the mortgage. New York. April 13. Notwithstand ing th. iliirm of snow and sleet thia morn- in the aual number of women made their way to tne uroosiyu voun ruuui, if determined not to loae a single word that may be uttered there while the scandal trial laata. M r. Beecher appeared en veloped in wrappings, and accompanied by hit wife and his daughter, Mrs. Boo- ville. Proceedings were delayed fifteen minniM Iit the late arrival or Mr. fcvarta. Mr. Beecher conferred a few moments with him, and then took his place on the witness stand and testified ; Mr. Moulton never told me Tilton was willing to make .lalcmpnt before the investigation com- mittee which would exclude the charge of adultery between me and Mrs. lilton. Moulton did tell me niton wan wrauaiu because his wife had been uelore tn committee. I never said to Tilton thatpub-lir-aiinn nf the Trne Story would kill me, I said that I could not bear it. After publication of the tripartite agreement I never said to Moulton that if Tilton published his letter that it would be my death. I aaid that it was a charge that no clergyman could stand up under, and that 1 would Pgm l out to tne enu. Moulton never aaid that Tilton was op-ml to oublication of the resignation, as he said it would be exposing hia wife, nor did he tell me Tiltou waa incensed about it and threatened to 8IJO0T ME it it mora mililiahed. fSliown a letter. 1 I think thia ia Mrs. Woodhull's fourth letter to me. Mr. Evarta read a letter dated February 7, 1872, stating that the vritpr was endeavorine- to obtain Stein- wav Hall fortheir meeting. The witneaa said-.. I have no recollection of any oth or Utters nf Mra. Woodhull's sent to me. I wrote other letters than these that have hum nrniiiiceri to Mr. Tilton. Mr. Moul ton never told me he had told Woodruff and Robinson of my relatione with Jiln-abeth Tilton. He never told me be had tried to mislead Baxter and others in re gard t ihe matter. He did say he saw Baxter, and said that if my life was not a denial of the Woodhull scandal, then character was nothing. He never said to m h had lied for me. or that in state ments he had made for me he had Bpoken falsely. I never read any work of the nimirer Dumas. In one summer I read the worka of the elder Dumaa, that aerlea of which the "Three Miiaketeera" and the "Twenty Years Alter" lorm a part. I never received or naked any IMPROPER FAVORS from Mra. Tilton from December 1, 1871 until nnw. ami I never had any sexua inirnniirae with her during that period c.m mv first acauaintance with Mrs, Tilton until now I never aBked or received any improper Javora irom ner, nor i.u any sexual intercogrse tri'h her. There has been nothing oi .uw rluv ."'"""'a those questions ever between n. Mr. Tilton never used to ma or in my presence any language or intimation that llipre had been criminal relations between Mra. Til-ton and myaelf. In relation to the imputation or intimation in regard to thia mat-ter I never said to Tilton the blame lay only with myself, nor that I was the guilty one and should sutler. Mr, Moulton never made any eceuaalion or imputation of sexual relations between me and Mrs. Tilton. This ppncluded the direct examination, and tue CROSS-EXAUINATfOtjl was begun by Mr. Fullerton. Witness said : I have no custom of taking an oath with uplifted hand. When 1 waa before the grand jury 1 presume i awore on the Bible. I did not say there I had pmuwientiniia scruples against taking an oath in thia manner. I do not remember awearingon the gospel inanawertn acom- n aint in thia case, ine oatn waa ad ministered to me in New Hampshire, and whatever form of oath was inJajs there I took. In January, 1871, Mrs.Beeclier mav have been gone. I recollect that Mrs. Moulton spoke to my wife and myself of meetinu Mcs. Beecher in Florida. I cannot tell the exact time Mra. Beecher left for the South, f The witness here ex amined his book of dates. 1 do not see nv entry of it here. I think she return ed in May. During the two absences of my wile Mrs. reritins, my sisier, Kepi house for me. 1 do not tinnK Mrs. Rpsnhrr was ever absent in the South when I had no housekeeper. I did not hear of Theodore Tilton falling from his orthodox faith until quite lately. As early as 1865 I heard of his becoming - . . i, , ' t riii loose in nis religious nni.iunn. men, were some of his articles in the Independent which spoke of the Catholicity of the paper. I thought the policy of the paper waj noi aounn. a uiu nuv 014.10. of the articiefl. I do not recall ever haying brought to my mind any article by him discussing doctrinal queatfons. There was brought to my mind an injudi-ciousnesa in the conduct of the paper. Jndnini! from what I heard of the eBVct of his teachings on the publio mind I ahould not bare said that I thought him to be a aafe teacher of doctrinal matters. The Independent was in some sense relig ions, but not a theoloeical paper. When the paper came into Tilton'a handa it fell (mm tuiwhlnir doctrinal truths. I regard ed Tilton as being in a transition stateand hnldinir Imoerfect views. I first heard of his wife complaining of his religions views aa earlv aB 1865 or I860. She con sulted me about bim as being a safe person to bring up children under about 1869. I regarded his doctrine of the di-initv of Christ aa loose and almost heret ical. I thought if he was at the head of a theological paper he was tne last map hn should be there, but if it was a pa per ineufsatjng Christian elnies ne migni do. , , Mr, Fullerton reid frora tha witness's pno- Utrted in Chicago and partly to supplant the Indrrieadent. Tina sLUmeni waa 00 it a sketch which left out a sa.Hitudeof ether mautert Iron it. I did not Investigate 1 u-loa's teachings with regard to ajuuaoi tD wvoaca. tliertd k had enlarged the eauses of di vorce and made then so louse as to be mis-ehierous. I waa informed that he held doctrine of divorce so piastre as to make It highly dangerous, I did not believe in hia doctrines, and never read his articles. The qatetion of whether be was a fit normal teacher did not eome baton my mind. He was not unfit 10 my mind to conduct a large paper. 1 bslieted that tnese views 01 111-ton in regard to divorce were very crude. I judged they were pernicious. In regard to tins Mrs. 1 llion aid not say raoca ui me ia conversations I had with her. I took Hia Tilton out oa two occasions to ride, I think in Ike early part of 1870. They were to earn instance in a uuggy. 1 uo nui remember if on these occaiioua we alighted from the huggv. We went on both ooca-aiona to the l'ark. I do not recollect goiag to Greenwood on one of these occasions. I do not recollect the deiaila of these rides. I think before these we had some rides, but in what year I could not say. 1 hare no recollection of them whatever, nor where I got the carriage and who the driver was. 1 do not remember takiug her when one or the other of the children accompanied us. In 1UB8 I do not remember taking ber out in a close carriage, or of hor entering or leaving the carriage at any other place man at uer own house, aha waa never at Peekakill. I have a dim recollection of visiting a pilot h graph gallery with her, but eaunot remember ihe circumstances of that viiit. I cannot recall the occasion. I have fixed the date of my visit to Mra. Tilton in August, 1870, by Investigation. I received a pots from her at t'eekakill. I have not the note, and suppose it is destroyed, gone. 1 have not seen II sin. Shu said in it she waa sick.

I never returned her any of ber letters, nor did she return any to uie. On the second day a scrap of paper wss sent down to me from Mrs. Tilton. 1 did not keep it. I am not a preserver of documents.

Tilton in his passion on one occasion struck her, that lie ana done worse, mat ne naa ' IHBE SOLICITATIONS of an 'ioiproper character to her, viz., Bessie Turner, and that he had on two oecasions dune it. I said something to her that there niiirht be a mistake, Ahe gave me some statements of what that solicitation was. Q. Please stale what lhat was. A.

In the House of Commons thia evening Mr. Sullivan, member for the South, wanted' to know whether tlie law In regard to bearing of arms in Ireland would in anv wav interfere with the American rifle men who are coming to Ireland to take nart in the International rule match The Chief Secretary for Ireland r:plied that all classes would heartily welcome the American team this summer. The gentlemen from the United States who were to take part In the competition were undoubtedly law-abiding citicens. there was no reason to suppose that they would break the law, or be any more liable to render themaelyes ljable to arrest than Scotchmen or Englishmen. Mr. Sullivan insisting on a positive assurance, so that that there will be no misapprehension, the Chief Secretary said there would be no interference with the visitors, because it was well understood that they had no intention of breaking the law, but if necessary a special arrangement would be mane to wu.". v, movement and exemption from the formal operation of the law.
