The Brooklyn Argus says: "The fol lowing iotercnange if letters took place yesterday, between Mr. Sage, chairman of the Beecher investigating committtc, and Theodore Tilton:" BHooKi.YJf , July 31, 1S71. Theodore Tilton, Esq.: Deab Sib I am instructed by the committee to state that the letters and documents referred to in your statement presented to us have not been delivered, notwithstanding your several promises to furuish them. As your statement, in absence of tbete documents, is deprived of its greatest force, we think you should desire to place them in our possession, and I desire to impress on you the im portance of delivering them to us at your earliest convenience. Very truly yoara, h. v saqe, Chairman. Brooklyn, Angunt 3, ISi. Mr. Henry W. Sage, cnatrman of committee: My Deab Sib I have just received your note of July 31st, four days after date. Cnless you accidentally misdated it, the communication should have come to me several days ago. This leads me to recall a similar dilatoriness of the delivery of your original note, first summosing me to attend your commit tee, which I received only four hours be fore l was to appear, ana yet tne sum mons here dite6f ,1lho my previous. But let these trifles pass. Your note i-iat received surprises me by its con tents, for vou eeem to have foritotton that on the lat day of my appearance before your committee, I carried to your meettuir. not only all tbo documents which I quoted in my sworn statement, save those in Moulton's possession, but many more besides, making a double hue dful of interesting and important pa pen vital to my case and destructive to you is. Ail these papers I purposed to lay before you, but no boouer had I be gan to read them aloud in your presence than one of your attorneys stopped me in reading aud proposed that I should save the committee's time by referring the3 papers to one of your members, Hou. John Winelow. I acquiesced in this suggestion and returned from your committee with the expectation of a speedy conference with Mr. Winslow. Perhaps it was my proer duty to have called on Mr. Wius. low, but as the whole committee had previously set the example of calling iu a body on one of the o ber parties to this controversy, I took it for granted that Mr. Winslow would repeat tills prece dent by doing me the Conor to call at my house, at which he would have been a welcome gutt. But, while waiting for his coming, 1 was called upon instead by a policeman, who arrested me and carried me, at thirty minutes notice, be fore Justicellsilley's police court, to an swer tbe charge of libelling Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, agdnst whom I bad spoken, not a libel, but the truth. Up to the time of this arrext, I had employ ed no lawyer, not needing any; but on finding myself be'ore a police court, and not understanding tbe motive of my ar rest, nor methods of courts, I requested my friend, Judge S D Morris, to an swer for me in a technical proceeding, in which I knew not bow to answer prop erly for myself. Twice already I have been befure this unexpected tribunal, and may be called before it a third time on Wednesday next. Meanwhile, my coun bel, to whom I have just sbown your noti, instructs me to lay no documents, papers, or remaining testimony before your committee, nor to hold any furtber communication with you In any form, except to semi you this present and final letter, containing the reasons for this step. These reasons are the following: First, you are a committee of Mr. Beecher's irievids, appointed by himself, expected to act in bis behalf, assisted by attorneys employed exclusively fr his vindication-, holding secret sessions inaccessible to the public, having no power to com- , pel witnesses, giving no opportunity for i tbe opposite side to cross-examine such as voluntarily appear, publishing or sup-, preieing their testimony, as you see lit, j and, so Jar as my own experience goes, asking me no questions save such as ! were irrelevant to tbe case, and omit- I tint; to publish in your imperfect and ! UDjiist report of my testimony all that i was most pertinent to my own side of ! tbe testimony, beconu, me daily papers of Brooklyn and Sew York have been oi "rooaiyu sou new lorn, uave ueen tf!'y V crumb, of ncti tious evidence a ainst my own char acter, as If not Mr. Beecher, bat I alone, were tbe man on trial; and though I have little right, perhaps, to hold your committee responsible for this daily mis- repiesentatiou which may come through i tbe malice of others, yet the result is tbe ' same to me as it you Had deliberately designed it, and tbat result Is this, i namely: I expect no justice either from ; your tribunal, since you cannot compel I witnesses to testify; nor from your re i porters, siuce tbey do not give impartial reports. Third. 1 cannot retiiat. tho nnn. viction, though I mean no offense inex preesiDK it that vrair pfimmln,.k., come at last to be as little satisfactory to tllO Tllll.llo on 1 . .

Vot these reasons, which ought to have moved me earlier, I have at last Instructed my counsel to proceed at once, at his discre tion, to carry my case from your Juris- l,1? ,to ajr,a'tof w; and In vifw of this instruction from me ho nas in turn Instructed me to hold no further com manlcation withyourcommittee except iSevenyneatflii - e ast of July 1, 10K -It the dem&n' this present letter of courtesy, in which I bid you farewell. In dolus this per mit roe to add that respect which I am unable to entertain for your committee as a tribunal, which I cannot help ex pressing for you, each and all, as indi viduals. Truly your, THEODORE TILTON. 2I0ULTOX TUBXS UP. Frank Moulton arrived in Brooklyn this morning. He said tbat an invita tion had bsen sent him to appear before the investigating committee. He de clared that he was ready and willing to go before tbe committee if both parties requested It. He said that he-had not received a letter from Mr. Beecher ask ing him to go before the committee and testlry. Moultonr said, with great sin cerity, tbat he still adhered to the opin ion expressed to uie committee, tnat tne matter should have been compromised. He regretted that the investigation had been commenced. He said the com mittee was an ex-parie affair, and never should have acted except with a view to effect a compromise. "But," continued Mr. Moulton, "it happens that I am here In time to testify, If my evidence shall be requested in writing hy both Beecher and Tilton." He expressed regret at tbe present situation, but said the affair hsa now reached such a pass that all the facts must come out. SYNOPSIS OF JIBS. TTLTOS'S TESTTirOilY. Mrs. Tilton's testimony before the Plymouth church investigating commit tee will be published to-morrow. The following Is a synopsis, embracing all that la of interest and not heretofore published. The examination tiecint with an apparent purpose to show that Tilton neplected his wife from a very early period of their married life. Mrs. Tilton stated that she was frequently sick, and that her physician said there was trouble and care on her mind which j he could not cure: j Question What was the trouble in , point of fact? Answer Well, anyone of you gentle men, I think, would have cared for my I family as much as Theodore did. I was left entirely with my servants, and they were very poor servants. I could not have my mother with me because it was impossible for her to live with m on ac count of her disagreement with Mr. Til ton. Tilton was dissati-fl-ii with his home aud with his wife's management, and was harsh in his criticisms. Ques. When did he begin to talk to you, it at all, in regard to your associa tion and friendship for Mr. Beecher? Ans. I think X had no visits from Mr. Beecher before 1S66. That ia the first that I remember seeinc of him. Ques. What was the criticism in re gard to Beecher and yourself which Tilton made? Ans. As early as 1665 Mr. Tilton's mind was tainted with suspicions of Mr. Beecher, and used to talk with me continually about his wrong-doings with ladies, stories of which were told him by Mr. (name not given ) When Mr. Beecher came to see me Mr. Tilton be gan to be susplcioufi, aid that it might be perfectly transparent to my husband with respect to my interviews with Mr Beecher alone, I used to charge my mind with our conversations and repeat them to Mr. Tilton. Mrs. Tilton con tinues: She was coutinuilly questioned by Tilton concerning these conyer-i-tions in the most jealous manner. She was often told, with anger, that she had j concealed someililnc sue dm not mean to tell, and that she lied. For three years she tried to repeat everything that was said, but found Tiitou more suspi cious than ever. He had no con fidence in her, and she f suffered a ereat deal. This state of things lasted to the present day, although she had not felt to badly in tne last two years. Til ton's criticisms, to ner, tool the form of i ne began to assume sue nau done cnmi nal wrong with Beecher, she met the charges, sometimes with anger, some times witn calmness or silence, but iu- tt .1 ; t r.. xu- i vanamy ueuieucriminai inumacy. one had denied it in letters to Tilton, but they were lost. He seemed to use all his influence to make her acknowledge the wrong, and talked so murh of it she thought he was morbid. He told her once he saw her sitting on Beecher's lap, in our parlor, and she replied: ''You did not" This morbid jealously had a wearing and sickening effect on her. He never named any definite time or place of any criminal act with Beecher; never pretended she was guilty of any impropriety at Beecher's house. She went there twice or thrice to con&u.t with Beecher about a sick person; never met him at any other place by appoint ment Tilton never accused her of crim inality based upon any admission by er. It was not true tbat she confessed in July, IS" 0, any act of impropriety with Beecher. The story of Catharine Uaunt she had not read through when sbe wrote her Schoharie letter. Being im pressed with the story at a certain point, she wrote the letter to her husband. Sbe had no reference to adultery, or thought of It in that letter. Mrs. Tilton was asked, "What did you refer to?" and replied, "I will try to an swer tbat question. "Tbe one absorbing feeling of my whole life has been Theodore Tilton. Neither Mr. Beocher, I assure you, nor any human being, bos ever taken away from me that one fact my love for him. But I must say that I felt very great helpfulness In my own soul from having had the friendship of Mr. Beecher, and also other people .ts, many women as men." On the subject of the alleged confes sion, by comparison with the character of Catharine Gaunt, Mrs. Tilton said that this confession was made in tne summerof 1870, but not at any one time. Mr. Tilton fa tiered from aU their talks tbat rummer tbat she really found In M r. Beecher what sbe did not find in her husband. She give bim that impres sion; but sbe loid him if he would givn to her what 1 e gave to otters, she would probably find in hi u what she found in Mr. Beecher. When she spoke of her sin in tbe Schoharie letter, sbe meant tbat sbe bad done Tilton a wrong by taking any one else in his place in any way, though sbe did not know but sbe would do tbe same thing again, because it had been so much help to her soul. Ques. Taking anyone else in what connection? Ans. I do not think, if I had known as much as I do now of Tiitou, that I should ever have encouraged Mr. B-ech-er's acquaintance. I think I did wrong in doing it, inasmuch as it hurt Theo dore? I do not itno was I can make my self understood, but do you know what I mean when I say that I was aroused in myself that I had a self-ostcrtinn which I never knew before with Theo dore. There was always a damper be tween me and Theodore, hut there never was between me and Mr Beecher. With Mr. Beecher I had a sort of conscious ness of being more. He appreciated me as Theodore did not. 1 felt myself another woman; I feltthat ho respected me. I think Theodore never saw in me what Mr. Beecher did. Mr. Sage Do you mean to say tbat Theodore put down self-respect in you while Mr. Beecber lifted it up. Ans. Yes; I never lelt a bit ol einoar- rassmentwith Mr Beecher, but to this day I never could sit d'jwn with Theo dore without being self-conscious, and feeling his sense of my inequality with him. Witness said the sin she spoke of was nothing more than giving to an other what was due to her husband that which he did not bring out, how ever. She did not feel now that them vmt anv ereat sin about it The sin was that she hurther husband's into her life at all. The wifely feeling she gave to her husband was pure; she iravn Mr. Beecher nothinc more than confidence-aud respect. She taught her daughters that if they gave their hus bands what she had given to hers they would do enough. Tilton frequently talked to her accusingly of tie sensual effect of her presence upon gentlemen. His accusations were bard to iivo under. He seemed to bo ashamed of her ap pearance, dress and bearing. On one ccaslon, in the company of his friends. e told her he would give five hundred li-IM. IJ.Uf XJJUfc- HX I the Afntteori'TiLnSBl dollars if sbe was not at his side. On a f U1 occasion he said to her: I wish you would not keep near me." It was evident to her that he did not want com parisons made between them; it hurt her very much. In 1870 she had a conversation with Tilton regarding bis habits and associations in which he confessed criminality with other wo men. Sbe did not confess adultery to him; it was the other way ho confessed to improper relations with other women, and told her he wished her to under stand thst when he was away from home lecturing or visiting, if he desired to gratify himself, he would do it The wori was filled with Blanders about hlrr., 6ut he diifnot seem to know It; he thought everything came from her, and Bald bo. He declared that sbe was the originator of all the talk about him. and he insisted on her correcting these impressions. He said on one certain occasion a certain woman had been talking about him, and he wanted his wife to see her and put an end to it. She went to the woman and told her sbe should have to avoid add ing to the stories already afloat, for her sake, when she replied: "Mrs. Tilton, do you know why I didn't? Because, the night before, your husband had told stories of yourself to such and such a person that came to me directly, and I was nnt going to allow an accusation of mat cnaract?r to stand against you." Wherever she went sbe found that Til ton had not only made these accusations against her, but had recounted the de tails wuich he has now published; then Be -a uld deny to her that he had done so. Mrs. Tilton's attention being called to her husband's allegation about the im proper caress, she said there was no truth in ic one also denied tne bed-room story, saying, -'Theod. 're had been with us that morning, and had gone out Mr. Bf eeher was sitting in a large chair and she had drawn up a Bmall one. Beecher had in his hand a little manuscript he was going to read. She did not remember what It waa. The door from the bed-room to the hall was shut, and she had shut the door leading from the sitting-room to the hall, which was usually open. She bad no sooner done that, which was to keep out the noise of the children playincin the hall, and eat down by the side of Mr. Beecher, when Theodore came to tbe other door X t five minutes had elapsed since be went out There was no hesitation In opening tb.9 door. The folding-doors were wide open. The door leading from the hall to the bedroom was locked, but tbat was not uncommon. Her closing the other door, which was seldom closed, perhaps made Theodore suspicious. Qtits. Was Mr. Beecher flushed wheu Theodore came in? Ans. Not at all. Being next questioned as to the paper, Mr. Tilton said she wrote him in the latter part of IS70, stating that Beecher had made improper approaches, wit ness said tbe paper she wrote was but a couple of lines, as far as she could re member, and were written at a time when she was nearly out of her mind, but what Theodore made her write she could not tell at this day; she was con scious of writing many things under dic tation, or copying them off and giving them to him. Ques. Things that were false? Ans. Oh yei. Ques. What benefit did he tell you would come if you would make these statement? Ans. He sabl this statement was to help him in the matter with Mr.3o wen. I did not understand bow it was, but in stead of going to Mr. Bowen with it, he went to Moulton, and that quite startled me. Ques. Did Mr. Beecher make any improper suggestion or request to you? Ans. Why.no sir; itwas utter'y false. I have done many things like signing that paper. Tiiere is a certain power Theodore has over me especially if I .i. .M.t i i ii .. . . 11U1 Ui ttUU UB 1UUUI V CV1H UBIUC Uf iUC .,t' if! anvheT-Prnirfttlon-tfrrirri. any tiling or tnat sort Una or two letters I sent west will bear witness to that I wrote a letter to Miss In one ten minutes, and in the next ten minutes I wrote another letter to her with a statement contrary to that of the first The first was writ ten under Mr. Tilton's influence, but after having written it I sa d to mysel': " Why, I have stabbed Mr. Beecher," and immediately wrote in tbe second letter, " For God's sake don't listen to what I said In the first letter." I have never written a letter of my own in re gard to this matter except a very small one, and about which I desire to con'ess; it was in regard to my motner, and In that letler I gave her a very cruel stab. I wrote that, but the others were en tirely of Mr. Tilton's concocting. Mrs. Tilton admitted that she copied the note containing the words: " Mr. Beecher desired me to be his wife, with all that that Implies," which note was to be shown to Dr. Storrs She at first refused, but Tilton said he needed it because it would be a great deal better than anytt log he could write, and that it was not anything after all. Bhe replied, "Its not true, and what will Sir. Beecher say?" Frank Carpenter was present, but could not hear them, as they spoke low. Tilton told her she had but fifteen minutes,and sue sat down and wrote the note. It is absolutely fake that sbe wanted to make a stronger statement She thought It w-ckcily strong as it was. There was trouble, and she thought that it would in pme way serve her and bring peace. He had said the whole af fair was a scheme to get out of the Woodhuli trouble. Mrs. Tilton then re lated how the week after the council of churches was held sbe thought of consoling Theodore and went to Dr. Storrs and told him that letter was false; that she was not the author of, nor bad she composed it in anvway; and Dr. Storrs said : "I wish I had known that a week ago, because on that letter alone I believed Beecher to be a guilty man." Ques. Did he inquire how you came to copy such a letter? Ans. No. Ques. Did you explain to him? Ans. No; he wauted to know if I knew of any great sin that I haddoue. I said I did. He said it was a fearful thing, to which I said, yes, I realized it; I had frequently done uch things as tht Ques. Did you ever see the letter which was published by your husband in bis statement, apparently from Mr. Beecher to you? Ans. No, sir; I never saw it until It was printed there. Ques. Did you ever hear about it? Ans. I was never willing to have anything to do with Moulton. Tilton told me that whatever communication I had iu these matters in regard to B ecch er and Mrs. Woodhuli must come through Mr. Moulton, but I said, "I shall have nothing to do with any third parly; I shall be trusted as I have been hitherto, and if Mr. Beecher or anyone else bos anvthini; to suv to me, it eball not come through Mr. Moulton." Well, J there came tn me two or three times pa pers and letters which purported to come from Beecher, but I did not look at them, because tbey came through air. Moulton. I did not care any thing about them. This one, one day when I was sitting In the parlor, Moulton brought to mo and baid it was a very Important letter. 1 refused to receive any letter from him in that way, and he said let me read it to you, and be did read something, but it went in one ear and out oi tne oiuer, so much so that I don't remember what was in it I know there must have been a letter, but I did not see tho handwriting or anything about it. I did not take it in my hands. After reading it he car ried it away. Ques. Can you recall anything in tho letter that he read which makes yra think that is tbe one? Ans. I remember Something of his urging me to liuve Moulton as a confi dant The only-thing that impressed itselfion 'my mind was that Mr. Beecher desired me to accept Frank Moulton in some way, as iu him we had a common lliiiS r fnesn - 0W ground. I have a recollection of suab a statement, against which I rebelled te a letter which. Moulton read to me. Qnes. Di you recollect a letter Be ginning "My dear husband, I deolre to ! leave with you. before going to bed, a ' statement that Mr. Henry Ward Beech er caned on me mis evening anu aszeu me if I would defend him against any ! accusation macouncii or minietere," anu ending "Affectionately, Elizabeth?" Ana. Yes. sir: but that was not my letter. Ques. How was it written? Ans. In the same way as those which I have already explained. 1 have no other explanation for any of them. That was written in bed. Mr. Tilton wrote it first, and I sat up in my sick bed and copied it Ques. Is that true of all letters that ) have tbat significance? Ans. les sir; so far as my author ship of them is concerned. Ques. Was tbe letter written when you were sick from a miscarriage? Ans. Yes. Ques. Do you recollect Mr. Beecher calling that evenins? Ans. Yes. Ques. When? Ans. But a few hours before I wrote that letter. Ques. Can you remember that inter view with Mr. B eeher? Ans. It wis a very similar one to the otber. I was half unconscious, and was very ill-prepared to see either of thorn. My room was all darkened, and the nurse had gone to hers. She opened It a dcor and said that Mr. Beecher wanted to see me. I certainly don't know what to tell you about that, either. Ques. Do you remember writing some paper for Beecher? Ana. Yea. Ques. Can you recall the contents of that paper? Ans. No I can't. I think it was to do something for him, because The. bad done something against him. Ques. Is It true that he said anything to you about a council of ministers? Ans I do not remember; I have tried very hard, dear friends, to get into my mind those scenes, but they are utterly out of my brain. Witness never had told Miss Anthony that sbe had com- I mitted adulter? or done wronir with Mr. Beecher, or anything to that efftet Ques. Did you ever tell any human b"ing that you bad been guilty of wroug- uoing wim iur. aeecner Ans. I never voluntatiiy did so. Once my husband took me in Mrs. 's carriage to the hou!-e of a lady to whom he had been telling stories about me and Mr. Beecher. I went against my will, and when we got there hesaid, "1 have brought Elizabeth to speak for herself, whether I havg slande ed her." I did not deny him ; they were the same things that I copied and signed in let ters which Theodore had prepared. I don't know whether it was treach ery, but a great many times he has said "You have gone to Dr. Stoma's, anil now he knows that you ore guilty." He found out that I had been to Dr. 8torra's, and he was very angry. Witness hero recounted the scene at her houde when Susan B. Anthony was presen', much as heretofore published, except she told Mina Anthony that Til ton accused herof adultery with Beeeh er, and that she had committed it She told Mij Anthony that Tilton had charged her with infidelity with one and another, and that when he sat at his table many times he had said that be did not know who bis children belonged to; had spoken of it to another person besides Miss Anthony, when she was aroused by Mrs. Woodhull's presence at her house, and by a visit from two of Mrs. Wood hull's sisters, when she called the police to take them away; but sbe bad told these persons nothing more than what unjust accusations had been put upon her by her husband. It.VlI.UOAI FXtEIOnTS. Tlie Conference of BnJIrond Compnnle nt Snralosii Itixlnctloti or Rate tram Titeuty to Fortj-riva ' Per Cent. 2fEw York, August 4. The confer ence of railroad representatives at Sara toga has decided that equitable and uni form freight and passenger rates should be charged, and the principle of cut throat competition was condemned as unworthy of corporations and injurious to their property. The idea was favored of an umpire or arbitrator at each of the different railroad centers, such as New York, Pittsburg, Clevelaud, Cincinnati, Chicago, StLouis, and elsewhere, whose duty it shall be to take testimony, and, so far as it may be proper, to settle all questions on an equitable and inexpen sive plan. The general plan of the rep resentatives was to effect a permanent organization and some measure to stand united againet-oppwition, which appears to be deetroying,and concentrating upon their interests. General Devereux, pres ident of the Atlantic and Gieat Western railway, who was chuinnan of the meet ing, says it was the most harmonious he ever attended. There was no doubt there was unity of interest, and just new there appeared to be special reasons for a con ference of the central corporations. It was not their intention to combine for any illegitimate purpose, but it was essential in some measures, aud should be taken to protect the interests committed to their care. He believed the railroad companies in their late con ference had accomplished great good; there would be less-friction, lew bitter ness, and a greater degree of unanimity in their relations to one another. President Jacob D. Cute, of the Tole do, Wabash and Western road, said the meeting was culled less for the purpose of raising rates than of maintaining the present prices and providinj; against the suicidal system of commissions, rebates and drawbacks which were in vogue, and which drained the resources and vitals of the corporations. Ho had no doubt but that the effects of the confer ence would be excellent. Tbe Tribune says, on this subject: "The railroad conference at Saratoga was called, like the one which lately held its sessions here, for the ostensible purpose of making combinations to fa cilitate transportation and establish uniform freight and passenger rales. The report of tho proceedings will indi cate to many that the roads really com bined to resist what they look upon as the forthcoming encroachments of the western grangers." The resolutions and minutes of the meeting have been taken to Indianapo lis by tho secretary, and a copy is not to be obtained here. Tho railroad men state that it is not true that tho meetiug was called for the purpose of combining against the grangers, or any other inter est. They say thattueirobjeet was sim ply the developement of tlieir respect ive roada and the abolition of tbe sys tem of under-cutting and litigation, which ha proved so expensive to all. Tne conference will soou be resumed, and the bu-iness introduced at the pre vious meeting be brought to a close. Freight agent report that the action of tho railroad officials has simplified their work materially. Heretofore mere was such competition to secure freight that! there was no pretense of preserving i nominal rates bv a jtradual process of cutting under. The rates have been re duced from twenty to forty per cent. "whilo special rates were rnailo with large snippers, me ionowiug are the new rates agreed upon: Chicago 75e, first class; 70c, second cIpj. coe, third class, 45o fourth cittgi 35o flftn class.

The city election passed off quietly; no disturbance of any kind. Both the whites and the blacks polled their full registered strength. Some of the lead ing negroes of the third ward attempted to induce their followers to leave that poll, but an excuse for such a course was studiously withheld by the whites. About forty negroes voted the white ticket, and four whites voted with the negroes. The whites elect their entire ticket by three hundred and flfty ma jority their first political victory since 1861.

Phillips, J. .Livingston, Charles Bingwood and Charles Crow, policemen, all charged with violating the United States election laws by forcibly hinder ing persons from exercisinz the right of suffrage in voting for a delegate to con gress, and resisting the United States marshal and his deputies. All were released on bail, to appear before United States Commissioner Lockey Wednes day morning. A warrant was issued this morning for the arrest of Mayor D. H. Wells on the same charge as pre ferred against the other parties. At three o'clock this afternoon the authori ties bad not finished the count of votes cast in the city at yesterday's election. Mayor Wells was arrested this after noon and placed under one thousand dollars bond to appear one week from to-day before the United States commis sioner for interfering with the election yesterday. The vote of the city, so far as counted, shows three thousand five hundred votes for George Q. Cannon and one thousand for It. M. Baskln, candidates for delegates. Reports for Tovelle county say the liberals have car ried that county by one hundred and six majority. KENTUCKY. Louisville, August 4. The vote for clerk of the court of appeals in this city stood Jones (Democrat), 6690; Coch ran (Independent), 5695. .Reports from the State come in slowly, but Jones is undoubtedly elected by a large majority. CnccurxATi, August 4. In tho elec tion at Covington, Kentucky, Jones (Democrat), candidate for clerk of the court of aDneals. received 1SO0 majority over Cochran (Independent); in New port Cochran received 30 majority; in Owensboro Jones received 900 majority. TUe whole Democratic ticket was elect ed in Fayette county by from 200 to 400 majority. In Lexington, city, the Re publicans have a majority of about 480, agains 800Jlast year. In Jessamine county the Democrats were elected by a majority of sixty. At Nicholasvillo t he Republican candidates for sheriff, county clerk and jailer were fleeted; all the other Democratic nom inees were elected by a majority of ftom sixty to two hundred. In Paris the Re publicans elected their sheriff by forty three majority, a loss of two hundred and thirty-Beven since last election. Reports from other points indicate that tbe Democrats carried the State for clerk of tho court of appeals and other nominees, who were elected according to local feeling, party lines In most places not beiug closely drawn. The majority for Jones, in Franklin county, is over three hundred. Local opinion seems to have been defeated at all points. FItANCE. The Crisis in tbe fablnet JllnliKr M.-igne'a Keatsnation Others to follow Etc., Etc. New York, August 4. A letter from Paris says that the story of the crisis in the French cabinet, so far as known, is brieily this: Mague, late minister of iinance, after a long losing fight, eeeing his last plan for balancing tho budget rejected by a great majority in the house, insisted on giving his resignation,which was accepted. He was a confessed rep resentative of Botiapartism in the cabi net. A little later, Fortou, minister of the interior, insisted on resigning. There were several reasons for his leav ing, the three most plausible of which are as follows: He demanded that a Bonapartist should bo taken In the place that ilagne had vacated; that on tbe occasion of Ventavous's report, the president should, in advance, and by message, lepel the Casimer proposition: that the prefect of police, having pushed the investigation that was ordered into the illegal Bonapartist Intrigues to a basis of criminal prosecution, insisting thatthelawshouldnaveitscourseandhe be dismissed from office. All these de mands were in the cabinet council resisted and finally rejected. The con ducting chief of resistance Is the Duke do Cazes, minister of foreign affairs and an Orieauist, so far as any are Orleanlsta to-day; he U an Orleanist by a", j11311 tecedents.
