It is of thick gray cloth, with two. large plaits, each five times doublet at the back. The edge of the skirt is cut out in small square tabs, folded back so as to form triangles. A blouse bodice is fastened in front with a. close row of steel buttons. A quilling of velvet of the same shade trims the bodice in the shape of a sailor collar and crossedeichu`. Paletot of the same cloth, with no trimming beyond an enormous bow of grey velvet over the plaits at the back.

Tilton was a little ahead of Moulton in years, but they took to `each other very warmly and gradually became as inti~. mateas brothers, 'I_t waste Moulton that Tilton first .told the saw of his home troubles, and _Moulton Vkept it smoothed for years,` corresponding ex tensively with "M r. Beecher during that time. The nal `outburst came only when he could no longer prevent it. He certainly did his best to keep back the storm, from which he himself suf. fered a good deal while it raged. The most lively of all the episodes in its track was themobbing of Moulton in rough handling only through the pre- sence of a detachment of police. Howls of cxecration followed him to -the door, if the police had not been there he would probably have fared pretty bad- ly in a bodily sense. He did fare bad- ly in nearly every other sense, through his connection V with the case. The hard words said about him had no end, . he suffered seriously in business, and in one particular instance he was large- ly out of pocket. In one of his state- ments, prepared by his counsel, Gen. Butler, he made allegations which be- came a basis for a libel suit brought by Edna Dean Proctor, the authoress. The allegations were undoubtedly hasty, and at all events the settlement of the suit cost Moulton about $9,000. .When the scandal trial was over, Mr. Beecher had him indicted for perjury, but that charge never went any further. Moul- ton moved from Brooklyn to New York soon afterward, because he found the former uncomfortably warm. He had to give up his old business, but he started anew, and got on - pretty well. Not long ago he bought Canonchet, the residence 1 f - ex-Gov. Sprague, of Rhoda Tsland. His experience as a Mutual . Friendrcertainly was not calculated to tempt other men to play the same part. He had some excellent qualities though, and most of his friendships were re- tained to the last. in New York, in 1836. One of his strongest friendships was for Gen But-' ler, on whose Presidential ticket he _ was an elector.
