Beecher bad made to him in regsrd to her._ Tho statawent wes undoubtodly reliavie, and Moulton had paid counsol fees 1n the matter, Ho then wlluded to the diflioulty of Moulton's firm with tho Governmont iu coumuction with the revenue Jana, Buch roforences (o tho bust. noss of the wituoss wore uuworthy, but tho evi- donos partly showed—clourly showed—that no dll:louor attached either to Moulton or Liy asso- o8, ¢ TIE WOODHTLL. BIr. Boach said an unduo smount of the atten- tion of tho fury had boen directed to relations of tho plaintift with Mrs. Victeria WoodbLull, It was falaoly pretendod that Mra, Woodbull had boon aupplied by Tilton with information for hor article upun tho scandal, What was there which shiould induce the jury to condemu Tilton for that association 2 It ‘would be an outrago to condemu this woman upon no better sutnonty tlan tho juers and soofia of counsel.

KIPLE JUSTICE DEMAND7D. Mr. Doach then urgad that the law was no re- apector of persous, aud that under it all sbould be viewed nliko whun standing in the ligbt of tho ramo evidence. Tho feelings of tho jury mast ofton have Leen movod by tho elght merely of Mr, Becchor in this court-room, and must have boen stiried to symmathy by bi® appeais to Hoaven upon tho etand, + ut suck foolings, euch ?ymplthlefl, were not justice, and wero not s W, Tho counsol thon dwelt on tho majostic relgn of law in pature, and the ovils which rosulted from all its violations.

If there was auy truth in nsturc and roligion, it was this, tbot avery vivlation of law way foilowed by put connciquences, The jury bind vothing to do all those outside influences, but were to decido the case according to their caths and upon the e;llld;ncs 10 whicti thoir attoution would bo in- vited, TILTOX'S CRUELTY. Mr, Deach then roforred to the acenrations of Prutality agatoss ‘1lton. and asked where thia cruel hustand, whose wifo had abanacn.d him with at leist 10 naw cause of oTenss, had ever manifested aey diyposition to attack that wire or 0 sock any of those extrancous aids for his enso, Ho did not como bors surronnded by troops of {rionds, but to uphold justice in the shnple in- togrity of bis manhood,until the jury condemnod him 10 tho dingrace which Henry Ward Beocher and Dlis counsel had fasioned upon lis namo. 1o suid Tilton would vever falter in Lis course. nreess, As the hour of tho noun recess had arrived, Mr. Donch suspended his sidress, Mr, Evarts roso and said that Mr. Beach, by relorring to & pasaage lu tho testinony, would see that Becclier had deniod his alloged conver- sation with Moulton in regard ta Mrs, Tilton's abandonment of her hueband. Mr. Boach looked at a_book handod him by Evaris, awd ucknowle odged ho hiad baen mistaken. Thio Court then adjunrned untll 2 o'clock. As Ar, Beach Jeft the roow, he was choerod by tho crowd ontaide, Ex-Attornoy-Gienoral Williams was on the bonch during the niorulng. After tho rocens Mr. Beach resumod his sad- drons to the jury. Although many persons had expected thni his would firnt apply for a roopen- fug of tho case on the gronnd of newly dincov- ored ovideuco, Mr. Morriv, when kpoXen to on tho sabject at recese, declinad to #ay whothor couneol for piaintid intended to take any uction of thls characier.
