Did Beecher Mean that God, or Tilton, ¢ Would Have Been a Better Man?™ ete. Such Is the Conundram that Porter Propounds to the Jury. Why Bowen Doesn't Leave FPlymouth Church, OBSERVATIONS, PORTER'S REVIEW OF MRS. MOULTON'S TESTIMONT, Speeral Duspateh ta The Cicago Tribunie, New Yonx, May 2i.—Judgo Portor to-dsy pald his respects to Bonlton and wife, reviewing their testimony and denouncing Moulton 88 the confodorate of Tilton, who hed compcllod his wife to awear to a false and improbable story to sustain the two conspimators. The donuncin- tions of both Moulton and Tilton wera in re- verer torms than Portor hiaa previously used. No attompt st orgument bos been mado by Mr. Por- ter thus far, and probably will not bo, s he closes to-morrow foronoon. Moulton, who has beon abscat for sovorsl days past, came into Court, but after Porter bad finished his reviow of him &8 & witoess, and did not therefore enjoy tho sensation of being roundly abused. o cor- dially shook handa with Tilton a4 he sat down, Thero was A MANKRD CHANOE IN BEFONER'S MANKFR. Ho no loogor watched Porter intently and smilingly, but sat by his wifo with thougltful and abatractod looks. Judgo Portar, in explainiog the letter of con- trition, called attention to tho fact that in tho phrase “Iean ask nothing,” etc, s final “t* had been blotted from tho *can,” which ho olaimod was arigipally “can't.” “I can't aex nothing,™ ho arguod, was a phraso Jir. B. wae incapable of dictating, whilo Moulton was ignar- ant enough §p bave used it o argued that MOULTON MAD WRITTEN IT, and Tilton had run the pon through the lottor, Ho claimed that Tilton, not Moulton, was the manter band which organized tho conapiraoy. Mr. Porter, in sliuding to the oxpressions “noot-biding™ and “paroxysmal lass,” and *the brink of & moral Ningara,” olaimed that thoy were unliko Baocher's etyle, sad directly like the langusge common to Tilton. — THE SUMMING UP, YRR LETTER OF CONTRITION, Mew York, May 24.—Tho Brookiyn ocourt- room was crowdod again to-day, and Judge Por- tar resumed his argumont for tho dofendant, tho Rev. IMenry Ward Bocoher. He roforred to tha “lettor of ocontrition,” which was the only known fnatanco in which s man had written » lotter to himselt, How did it happen? Thls man, who wae a master in overy intellectual do- partment, when ha camo into Frank 3foulton's presence, was like an untutored schoolboy. An- other feature of this letter was tho faot that Bocchor refussd to slgn it. Frank Moulton was asham from tho beginning, and strutted in proud plumage. Theodors Tilton, as a lit- erary writor, boro tho foremost name of any man in America, sud had given tho iden that howaa n man of boundless wealth. Those two siatomonts wers put forth to tho world by Moulton, copied from Thoodore Til- ton's drafta, or wero the result of a fortnight's work on the part of Beojamin F. Butler. Itwaa Tilton who gave directions for camrying out tho schemo, It wasio nis fertils brain that they tiad their birth, and whon Moulton snoke of crushing Thoodoro Tilton i Lo injured Beechar, 1t was but TOX LANGUAGR OF A DRAGGART. The daclarationa of Moulten, Tilton, nod Mrs, Moulton all bear tho stamp of Iheodors Tiltou's mind. That word * paroxysmal,” roforring 1o o kius, was nover heard from Beoclior's lips axcopt E‘:{ two persons: ''heodore Tilton and Frank oulton, Tho words, * Btanding on the brink of a moral Niagara," wero no more Honry Ward Deeclior's than the words **Moral heystscl," Yor thoso words would seom incongruous, They woro 'Theodaro Tilton's oxprossiond, Ceunsol then commouted on the form in ‘which the lettor was written, begloning ' f ask thronizh you Theodore Tilton's forgivencss, and humblo mysolf befors him as I do before God, o would hiave boen s better man in my place than I bave beon.* Did Mr. Boachor wille this? 1t he did, which did ho moun? Ged or Thoo- dare Tilton would have beou o better man in his place? Tho language used in this lotter pro- oluded all idea of the charge agaiost Noscher bo- ing sdultery, and the man who ssid Heury ‘Ward Boeolier wrote it lied, ana was AX UNTRUSTWORTHY WITNESS, Counsel referrod to tho lotter of May 8, 1871, writton by Mrs, Tilton to Beecher, as her pastor, ‘Was that the lotter of an ndultoress to hor para- mour? It bad more the strain of a broken- bearted and contritc woman to tho man whom sho had falsely accused. Never did Honry Ward Boecher uie the tarm *“nest-hidiog.” Ho had writton books mud books, and counsel on the other wlde had searched them all in vain for that term. Judge Fullertou iu * Norwood " found retorouce to a robin hid- ing bor nest, which ho (Judge I'ullerton) parad- ed befors them. You could not go to bear Deecher on Bunday next without bolng impreeeed with hiy vividness and improssivenesy, which rexuinds one of Buakspeare sud Old Home Afor reforring to other lsitors, counsel sald ¢ ‘What led Moulton and Tilton to lie, as thoy said, for Bsecher ? Moulton said he lied for tender- ness aud delicacy’ to DBeecher and Plymouth Church, and Tilton for motives of the same charactor towards his wife, Could Tilton have thesa fealings sud thoso which lod him to bas- tardize bis own doad boy and to seek ta ruin his slopted daughter? Both of these witnessos, in their testimony, had EXPRESSED A MALIONITY which rendered their testimony comparatively worthlous, 1f thoe jury belioved the testimony of Wilkeson aud Jackeon Schultz, what was the character of ‘Thoodore ‘Wilton, » man who had brokon and violatod ail L plodges? Tilton was living by blackmall for a num. ber of yoars, roady to sccept, m the form of ‘benefactions and ‘otherwiso, Why did Tilton threaton to ‘‘blow the mof off Plymoush Olinrch ® nolesa they acceded 40 his wishos? Waa it not soliciting “holp from Baecher when, sccording to Mr, and Mre, Ovington, Tillon saki that Elizaboth loved Mr. Boecher, and be aught to do something for her; that Klizaboth lad dono all that sha could for him, and he ought to come forward to halg.

This man had thresteued to shioot Bogelier ; but this was moro bravado :hlm'l- oul Atter recess, Mr, Lotter continucd his arga- mant: He saig that, in describing Henry Ward Lecclier as a liar and a anenl. Frank Moulton correctly dercribod himnelf and ‘Theodore Tilton, It the blood of Tillon and Moulton were trans. faned, 1t would find a3 black a resting-place in thie hieart of ons as in the other, Alter continuiug for romo time in this strain of invective, Porter spoke of ths improbebility of o Iady’s saying to & grav-haired clorgyman, a Mra, Moultos says she did in her own house, that ho bad ADDED YOUR YZARS OF PERSURY AXD LYISG 1o his original sin of adnltery, She said, baving told himn this, ¢ho declared to him & bellef that he could confess it to Plymouth Church aud b forgiven.

Monlton wan no uusorthy minion and cousort of Theodore Tilton, e aleo bad threatened to drive Loechor out of Brooslyn. Tillon made this threat even upon the witness-sland, forgetting its fulfill- tneut required the aid of ench man on tho jury.

Woodruff, who wonld 1e- grot hia action in this case as long o8 be lived, wan burried along to ono thing and another by the craft of Tilton and the cuuning of oulton, until ho was brought to the stand to deny tho word of ono of tlhio most prominont merchants in New York,—a man of unimpeached honor,— rlr}m was truo and noble in every relation of 0. Torlor sald ho had manv notes which Lo was compelled to dikeard, brest:an to uro tham would ;fiatmt tue argument beyond rearonable limita, horo was onc pasxago Lo which Lin must be al- lowed to refer. Tilton eald ho had alnoys THOUGHT OF DEECHED AR A TG 1OT, and in tho noxt eentence accused Beecher of oraft; taking advantage of opporrumty to srain an apparent ailvaptago OVEr Croas-oXamining connacl, when ho bad a chance during his ex- amination lo thrust a daggor into Deechor's side, Itefeiring to tho titie of the True Story, nud to the assertion of Tilton that lio did not know whore ho got that name, Porter eaid tho plainbifT forgot that bo spoko of it by that name himeelf boforo he knew that Redpoth's notes had beon preverved, and when ho suppoeod that all the manuseript srds dust and ashes. Ile then said that the storv of Boocher's preaching to his miptrernes, the origin of which Tiltou said ho aid not know, was said by Monltou to have boon told him by Filton himseif, when the Intter was protending to ba Boecher's friond. Xven Moul- ton was compelled to confoss that whon he was told this HE DID NOT BELINVE IT. Porter then spoke of Tuton's thrent to shoct Beecher, aud eaid the jury were asked to cone demu tho latter ou tho oath of an pesussin, Intho *“Laotter to tho Complaming Friend," snid th akor, Tiltan donounced the story of uis,mfc's sdultery as o lie ruized by Bowen aud Woodhull, and said ho had no knonledgo of tho scandal nrticlo; ho would havo you beliove that whon this scandal articlo wad published aud tolographed all over this Jand, sud abroad, that bo (Tiltoo) remainod iguoraut of 1t & weck. Thoodors ‘Lilton was in love with the woman who published Lis articloe. She wasa white- wouled articlo; Lnt the course of truo love nover ran smooth, and affer this libol on Lis wife was published ho quarrpled with her. \Whon tho chargo was made sgolnst Tilton's wife, ho did not basteu to put iu s vindication of ler, not because ho loved his wifo tuo less, but bocause he loved Henry C. Bowen mors, and YEANED DOWEN WOULD DE CHUANED by Honry Ward Bescher. After loccher's ra- tarn from Lo all on tho 13th of July, 1874, wuid Mr, Porter, and attor Redpath's messago of the 12th of July to Loecler, the cnaige was then changed to adultory, but Itodpath didu’t bolievo this charge. This fmpudent cuckold, said tho speaker, turning to ‘Lilton, who comos into court flourishing a pair of autlers which aro not his own, and_srhich he asks you to tip with gold—this cuckold subwitted his short roport for sdoption by the Committea afler Decclier's re- turn. This report, gentlemen, didn't contaln ono word about Mrs. Tilton's adultery. Iu lis own_handwriting, Theodora Tilton, knowing all the facts of_tho case, thought this report would rofloct eredit on all concerucd, Thia is tho document propared by 'lilton and borno to Boocher by Moulton on the 14th of July. Thoy wese ADOUT TO ENTRAP BEECUER into theuseof thelangunge used in that document beforo tha Committes, and leavo the alleged of- fense committed by him nndotined. Ia theloug report, Tilton admitted the falsity of his own ac- cusations, He did not know that in the language of the law, that what & man wrots for another to slgn waa evidonce agsinyt lumsell. This report showod that tho ouly offenso imputed to Mr. Doecbor was a charge of TMPROPER PROPOSALY, Counscl then road tho long report preparod by Tilton to be snbmitied to tho Committoe, and commented brielly on the dilforent portions of it. Here was the raport, saul Portor, which Til- ton prepared after three duys, His wife had lofs his roof, and alter he hiad told the story of his wifo's adultery, and ho certifios here tuat the apology did tiot mosn adultory, bus It was an apology for a mixed up affair. Whick waa truo, tho paper of the 14th of July, which exonerated Mres. Tilton and Mr. Beecler, or tho papor of the20th, which sot them forth ns shumelesy, ox- posod and confessed adulterors?
