‘10 THE GREAT TRIAL. ——— What the Scandal Has Al- ready Revealed. | INSANITY OF THE ACTORS | ae The Extraordinary Nature of the | Correspondence. AN ABNORMAL STATB OF SOCIETY. | Remarkable Conduct of the Prin- cipal Personages. | | | | i) ) For seven long weeks the proceedings in the | suit of Theodore Tilton against Menry Ward Beecher for the alleged seduction of his wife have attractea the attention of every city and town in | every State of the Union. The question as to the | trath or ialsity of the charge so boldly preferrea by the complainant against the defendant nas been discussed in all its various aspects by men and women in every grade of lle. Partisan jeel- ‘pg has been engendered by this discussion, and she entire ground of argument bas been exbausted | by those who have taken sides according to their convictions or prejudices, Not only bas the case been im progress of trial and examination before a | learned judge and an average jury of citizens, bunt it has been examined into, day by da; by thonsands who probably never ew citner of the principals in this famous triai. In the family circle, 10 the street, on ’Change, in ratiroad cars, | in ferryvoats and in all the customary haants of men this case has undergone serious consideration. | Friends bave quarrelied over it, and men, before utter strangers to each other, have formed a quaiutance and friendship by conversing about 1t. The telegraph wires and the columns of the news- | papers have been burdened wita the details, and | she public appetite uas been whetted and excited | thereby. In fact, the trial has made a sensation | unparalieled. This was to be expected by the very nature of the scandal, whic. growing, as it did through the course of taree long years, finally rose to such proportions that it became a neces- | sity that it snould be finally decided tu a court of | law, and under the dry formuia of legal pro- | cedure. 1 AT THIS STAGE OF THE TRIAL is 1g interesting to look back and review the prog- Tess of this oideous story. Firs: thrown out on the busy wings of dark and mysterious rumor, the repulsive story made honest men shudder, be- cause of the hidden mystery and foul innuendo. Then came the tniniy disguisea narrative of an avowed iemale free lover, and her persecution under the postal laws. Th: mischief was, now- ever, done, for just when {t was considered to be baried out of sight there came more revelations. | The husband, who had condoned his wife's offence. | as he asserted, finally threw out direct caarges | against tne man who he claims has injured him tn | Bis honor. Tne plaimtid’s tormal accusation ied to an investigation by the church over which | | | 1 | | the defendact his so long presided, and the church declared itself convinced | that their pastor had been caluminated | Next we had statements from all of the partes. The plaintiff told bis story airesh, the mutual trend of the contestants gave his version, and the defendant made his formal denial. Yet there was «feeling of doubt, and the public mind was more mystified and perplexea thanever. Thugit BECAME A NECESSITY, foreseen from the first by impassionate observers, that the case should be taken into court. The trial so far bas been one of constant sar- prises. The dispute about the judge who should preside foreshadowed the bitter contest that was to follow, and when the jury bad been selected snd the first witness called the Oght began. Moalton’s and Tilton’s examination extended over many dars, and the line of evidence | embraced a wide fleld. Both of these men gave | asserted facts and engaged in loug debates about the princtples of tneologs, the ethics of law, the pecutarities of literature, and they gave their in- dividual opinions about many men and many things. Still, all through the attenuated string of testimony there ran @ steady current of assertion t the plaintiff had suffered grievous tojury from the deiendant. But thig did not give the puolic sudicient ground to form a settied opinion, and it was only woen new witnesses appeared that the | trial took familar form and sco; During tue | past week direct assertion of alleged iacts bas | tagen the place of the mystifying evidence given | during the first six weeks of the proceedings, | aod we are bow getting something more than / the generalities that characterized so moch | of that which went before. This 1s the state of | she cave at the present moment, but it will not | astonish any one i! new sorprises are to come. ONLY ONE SIDE OF THE STORY is being reiated so jar, and though that version is adark and grievous one, all careful minds will wait, as the jury must, until the defence speaks. ‘The most remerkabie part of this triai is found, however, in. the extraordinary developments being made regarding the habits and actions of | the principal actors in the scandal, We find that | @ man who had or many years occapied the | position of @ moral teacher and counsellor of | others was himself accustomed to take coun. | sei of those Wuo proved to be weak and | unttted to give it, We see him relying upon men confessediy his mental inferiors in the hour of | county Court of Oyer ana Terminer. Her counsel | g Both of ihem, | tribulation and danger, and placing more conf- dence in the temporary shifts and schemes of | these unstable men than in the righteousness of | Bis cause and the purity of his lite.
