It wasin tho goucral style of tho rest of the specch, and very tine as compared with the rest, but it was ot the passionsio effort antlcipated. Evartsia oot a passionate, warm, impulsive speakor, but rather cool and argumontative, and thoss who asuiicigated a glowing conclusion domanaod what tho orutor waa incapable of, The pororation em- bodied a distinct addross to the Judge and an appoal to the jury, tho Iattar being full of Sorip- tural quotations, A dispute among the jurors as to continuing the ecssion waa tho sonestional event of tho af- ternoon, Carpentor wanted to adjourn, but the othors refused, and told Evarts to go on alt night it bs liked. The ouly signiticant event was tho indication that the rumored unauimity of the jury provea fallacions,* (70 the Assectated I'ress] THE KND IN BT, New Yonx, Juue 8.—The number of Iadies in tho Brookiyn Oity Courl-roum to.day was largely u excesn of that of veveral previcus days, sod waa unosual even for this attractive place for ladios to covgregato, Both partiss to tho suit -em}amunt, and, at ton minutos past the hour, Mr. Lvarts resumod his summing up. He be- gsn by u;fiulug that the whole controversy was endod if Gen. Traoy's narrauve of uig intervie at doudlten's house in 1872 was accoptea as correct, This Interview wag Lrought alous by ‘L'iiton and Moulton for their own purjoses, and for thoss purposes s Loneet explanation of tho situstion was ro- quired. Iu that intorview they were bound by what they said to Tracy on that occasion In e et to ‘the natuie of the charge. Thoy both doniod that ‘‘11E TRUE sTORY" was road in that interviow, but Tilton admitted that ho road 1t to Mr, Iracy about that period, and this was she ouly oceasion for its reading. Undor protears that “‘Lho True Siory " was des. iguotod as tho Woodhull seandal, Tiiton circulat« od it by asking advico as to how it would look when publisuod, and thus _ disssminated cancealed scaudale .sgamnst Beechor; but becatse the completo documout, as it waa finslly prepated, was not read to overy obe who was tuade nequaintod with its substados, it waa pre~ tonded that it was not resd to any particular porson who was eaked sbout it, o, iu rogard 10 the WoodtnH scandsl, it was protended that it wan propared as early sy the apring.of 1872, aud was ot wrltten until October, 1673, becausa tho completo article dul not come to lighs UNTIL THE LAST-NAMED DATE. The lutlmo“fi of Pearl Androws was introdnoed to nhow that Lia did 1ot put a hitorary sod plulo- sophical head-and-tuil piece to it ubtil the fall of 1872 bus the body of the article wa in existonca loug beforv, “Moulion, when recalled, CONTIADICTED ORN, THACT in somo mincr poiots § but that Gen.

As to Tracy’s heing » witaes: Wau conceded that be was forced 10 1t by tha re. fleciions upon Mr. L'raoy in rogard to his pro- fessional omployment.

Now, when Tiscy was fiest asked to enter into cousullation, he stipuloted that ho should entor it, an ho was, & fifend of Deschor, aud uot te placed aa to him in tho pouition of bostility.
