THE TRIAL OF CHARACTER. Fiftieth Day of the Ab- sorbing Scandal Suit. ae EXPERIENCES OF A NURSE What Mrs. Mitchell Knows About the Tilton Family. A CONFUSION OF DATES. The Defendant’s Case Assuming Tangible Shape. The jury walked iu from the go04 sunshine and frosty air to their seats on the dark side of tne court yesterday, and lor ten minutes there was silence, aggravated by dignity. Mr. Juryan Hull had the appearance of a great mariner who had Bettled on a desert island and never expected to | get off. He sits iu the farthest seat of the first row aod listens with gravity. Jurors, like every. body else accidently assembled, grow to like each otner. There may be in'ermarriages and wusiness indorsements out of this well-seasoned jury. Next to Mr. Davis sits Henry Thayer, wondering what offence he has committed to undergo an imprison- Ment like the present. Samuel Fiate is very buxious to go out and see St. Patrick’s procession, but feels that at his tender years he cannot ask the Court to adjourn. Samuel 1s probably the youngest juryman of all, and he may live to the year 1970 ana tell a long tale to bis posterity about some great trial like this, quite forgotten. A. R. Case is the mysterious man of that jury. Be always wears a deprecating, uncommunica- tive tace, as if afraid that he might derive some \nformation prejudicial to hisoath by looking at anybody. He does not look with any definiteness at the witnesses, aware that appearances are de- septive. He listens more in sorrow than in anger and deeply ponders upon tt ali. ‘The foreman has a brave neck. He has stretched it forward now Jor eleven weeks and still 1t does its work perfectly, He would appear to count the buttons on the clothes of all the witnesses. some- times he stoops low and seems to baoy, so to ‘peak, @ certain issue up and through by the sheer force of sympathy and curiostty. There have been monuments to great judges, Why not to great jurymen? Mr. Jeffreys is looking better, nut somewhat mature and imposed upon. He follows the evi- dence as if he were the representative citizen of the next age and meant to have no nonsense in this one. Jobn F, Taylor is a great and allent citizen. He | appears, like Sir Charles Boudoin, to “sum the actions Of the day each night before he sleeps.” Whatever his verdict will be it will be a good piece of workmanship. There is Mr. Whelan sitting under the lee of the sive Christopher Fitter and next to the benig- | nantGriffin Halstead. Mr. Whelan has a pale face, wavy biack hair and a very sober and re- Mabie appearance. He asked a question the other day, which was one o! the solitary gleams of ligut from that jury box. Yesterday the court was rather full. St, Pat- rick’s Day was booming outside with brass bands, and littie green flags were all over tne court room. Brother Halliday, Plymouth’s assistant pastor, Wook the stand yesterday and explained himself. Alterward the Tilton monthly nurse took the stand, and gave rather important testimony, as showing Mrs. Tilton’s frail condition when Tilton was discharged by Bowen. ‘This is to bear on the theory that while tn that condition he extorted a confession from her, to have himself repiaced. Bessie Turner and Mrs. Morse are to substantiate | all this. Mr. Jono Pray and ex-Judge Alvan H. Dailey were on the Bench yesterday, THE EVIDENCE. The Judge ascended the bench precisely at eleven o’ciock, and ten minutes alterwards the proceedings began by the calling of assistant astor Halliday, whose examination was resumed by Mr. Shearman. ‘The witness on ascending the stand explained to | the Court that be omitted a point in his evidence day belore; that Mrs, Moulvon directed bim to Mr. | Beecner’s ipigrute hanging on the wall oi ner parlor, and that Mrs, Moulton turned to other | pictures, raising the gas at the same time, and Used the words attriboted to her regarding her | ponfidence in Mr. Beecher; | remember an tnterview with Mr, Tilton on tne 18th of November, 1872; he Called at my honse; Mr. Bell was present, but he remained; Mr. Tilton said he calied at the request of | his friend Moulton in regard to tne Woodhull scandal; he talked very deliberately and gald it | ‘was entirely uutrus ‘as false, he said, as if he | were to go over to New York and say there was | @ tree in }ront of my house covered with 500 flags of all nations; i said nothing myself at the | beginning of the interview; he continued and said “‘my wile is as pure as tne lignt;’’ he made frequent insinuations against Mr, Beecher; up ro that stage of the conversation 1 said nothing | whatever; I repeatedly asked nim to specify what charges l¢ had against Mr. Beecher; Mr. Tilton said he wouid reier me to Mr. Moulton; Mr. Bell asked to go wiih me, but Tilton oojected, saying | he will sh. w them to Mr. Halliday but not to Mr. Bell; in regard to the Woodhull pubiication he | said he was travelliug in New Hampshire and that he was astounded at seeing the charges in , print; on returning Tilton met Seecner at Moulion’s house and expressed his great regret for the pabiication and his anxiety to do some. | thing to counteract the scandal. Brother Halliday was dismissed without produc- | | ing the record of Plymouth church. | | | MRS. LUCY W. MITCHELL. Mrs. Mitchell isa monthly uurse, and, by much Wetting, has grown very fat. A big figured shawl makes her look still larger. She wears kid gloves, leans vack, i00ks irail in sucn a situation and tpeaks to Mr. Evarts as if ne were avery young shild, who must not be excited. Something of the awful solemnity of the monthly nurse was exhaled fiom this robust, lisping woman, tnat freadful visitor who comes at the last hour beiore pain and goes away at the earliest breath of cun- valescence; and still no family is happy without ber. Her features were rather stony. Mr. | filton, sitting underneath this visitor, who fame once to lis house and silently served and * went away unnoticed, looked and beheld her come woce again, Nemesis-like. The unfortunate man yontinued to write with a gold pencil and drew a igh. The boy Ralph Tilton, recently sick, was the subject o/ inquiry, and the witness was put opon the trail of Kate Carey. She was a dull | witness. Mrs. Mitchell testified:—I have been living in Brooklyn thirty years; for the last twelve years have jollowed the business of monthy nurse; first became acquainted with Mrs. Tilton in De- tember, 1867; | remained in attendance on Mrs, Vilton for a week aiter her confinement; | was with her on the 24th of December, when Paul was corn; Mrs. Tilton was notan invalid during the on- Ure winter of 1869, but sudered considerably atter ber confinement; the child was brought up at my hands and not atthe breast; Mr. Beecher calied occasionally, but not very frequentiy; [was not there ail the time, but was in the havit of coming $nd going; the sick room was in the front of the house and connected with the back room by toid- ing doors that were generally kept open, tw thoroughly ventilate the room; I met Kate Carey there the secoud time of my attendance; I heard of Mr. Beecher calling at tae house and re- meinber the present of a basket of Nowers coming to the house; | krew of Mr, Beecher beimg in the room; | attended on Mrs, Tilton auring the Of her miscarriage. JUDICIAL OBSTETRICS. At @ quarter to iweive Mr. Evarts in the best tnd shortest Saxon asked a question relevant to a tertain interesting condition of Mrs. Tilton when | in important event conciuded not to be. Here the ladies in the court grew fluttered, like spa 81 time rows at the drooping \eather of a hawk. Two of them had hidden in a corner, on the flank of the judge, away from the reporters. They ducked their heads to no purpose, Bessie Turner played With her red curi, Other ladies looked as if they bad rather go out and, still the immortal monthly Darse, that woman of sorrows and acquainted ‘With griel, continued to recite the iaws of deriva | tion. ee Tilion Was not in good heaita ring the time | was with her; she appeared to | have some trouble on her mind; she had suffered | | great rivals In the law.

MRs. TILTON’S CRITICAL CONDITION, Q. How long was she ina criticai condition ? Mr. Fullerton—I ovject. Afver u little discussion the Juage allowed the question. | Q. Dia the critical condition ot Mrs, Tilton con- | tinne during the jo.owing week? A. Yes, sir she requirea quiet, which Was what the doctor in- sisted; | remuined tn the room and slept wich her. . Q. Do you rememver Mr. Tuten coming to the | house any day that Week, in the middie of toe | day? A. Yes, sir; his manner was quite agitated; | he came up to lis Whe in her sick room; he said | he was ruined: idon’t remember wout kind of | pers Mr. lilton vrought into the room wiih im. i Counsel for the plaintiM objected to the next | question on tue grouad of the immatertality of the evidence. Mr. Evaris insisted that he had a right to ask the question, Dat etiect Mr. Tilton’s presence in the sick room had on bis wiiet” The Judge ruled tv permissible. Mr. Evarts and Mr, Morris here haa a spat, Mr. | Evarts deciaring he would not suffer him to wran- gle witn bin, LEGAL CRAB FISHING. At noon the New York Bar and the Brooklyn Bar fell afoul of each other. Mr, Evarts and Judge Morris were the gladiators, Mr. Evarts wanted the monthly nurse to diagnose something or otuer in Mrs, Tilton’s sickness, Mr, Morris said that be objected. Mr. Evarts rode on with his question. Morris was heard from again. The Judge ruled Mr. Evarts off. He put the question in another chemical combination and Morris criticized it. “Lam not to be criticized by you,’ said the ex- Attorney Geueral, emphasizing the you asif he meant ‘Brooklyn’? by it, “1 don’t like your style,” answered Morris, in | effect, “and shan’t permit you to conter it on me.” Evarts replied testily. Morriarebatted with more force than dignity. They bore some resemblance ag they stood there to the towers of the Brooklyn Bridge, each hoiding its own shore. Mr. Beach found it necessary to arise and pour oll on tnese He succeeded, The cable of concord was stretched netween the piers and and the period in ch we iive continued to move. Morris, however, was mad. ‘The Brooklyn Bar had been assailed in him, He got another chance aiter awhile to object again, and Mr. Evarts asked in @ conciliatory way what question he should have asked. “Ask the proper question!’ said Morris, with about the same tone and manner Evarts had previously used. The Judge listened with a sense of fear at this battle of the Titans, and the ventilators in the window panes ceased to hum, Q. Witness, you can now inform us what was the efiect on Mrs, Tilton of this conversation. Judge Morris—1 onject. ‘The Judge—I think we must take it. Afier some liitie argumeat the question was slightly modified and witness continued :—I asked Mr. Tilton not to talk to his wile, as it ex- cited her; he did not pay much attention, as he walked up and down the room and talked to her; he was in the sick room on two or three occa- sions that day; | saw Mr. Moulton there that week two or tlree times; there was CONSIDERABLE CONVERSATION in the sick room between mr. Tilton and Mr. Moulton; they were io the habit of talking 1 the hearing 0! Mrs. ‘Liltou; Loveriicard them talkin, on several occasions; I remember once they sai something about tne Brooklyn Trion; 1 made an objection to Mr, Moulton and Mr, Tilton talking in. the sick room. Mr. Evarts—What was the effect of these con- versations on Mrs. ‘Tiiton ? Mr. Morris objected on the ground that the wit- n€ss not being an expert was not competent to give an opinion. Mr. Beach held that a lay witness was not com- pe'ent to tell what cause produced the change 1n Mrs, ‘ilton’s paysical system and appearance. Witness was allowed tu go on and said—I uoticed | how trouvied, restless and nervous she became alter being forced to hear these conversations; 1 | asked the gentlemen to go to the study and talk; | lregarded Mrs. Tiltun’s condition as serious; of | all things she wanted quiet; the doctor gave par- | ticular instructions to sec her this, and on that account 1 requested the gentiemen wo re- tire to the study or some sucn place; I dy not remember how much Mr. ‘Tilton was in the house or bow ong he was away; I remember Mr. Tilton reading to his wile; ne asked me if taere was any objection and | told him that Il did not tuink tie doctor would like it, but he paid no attention to what I said and com- menced reading and | leit the room; I remember on Friday night that week that Mr. Beecher visited the house; I remember it was Friday, as it wes prayer meeuung night; it Was a stormy nicht—a snow Storm; some one knocked at the door and I opened it, saw Mr. Beecher and invited him in; rs, Tilton was very Weak that night; she was in | bed but propped up with a pillow; 1 went down stairs while Mr. Beecher was there and sat with Mrs. Dennis; I returned tothe sick Mr. Beecher lett the house; Mrs. Tilton was then very weak; Islept with Mrs. Tilton that nlgnt; she was asleep When Mr. Tilton came in and was talking and sobbing ail the time; I told him IT WOULD NEVER DO room alter | to carry on in that way, as his wile was ina pre- carious condition; Mr. Tilton came at different times in the night to see his wile; I got up trom bed to procure her such medicines as were ordered for fier tu get her rest. Alter a short consultation Mr, Evarts asked, Q. Besides the voice, did you hear any move- ments in the roomy A, I do noc know. Q. Did you hear him walking? A. I should juage that be was waiking about. Witness continued—bessie ‘Turner was in the Toom at the time; she was sitting on the lounge; sue was very much affected and dropped over at the time when Mr, Tilton wade that remark, CONFERRING BY NODS. When Bessie Turner was inquired of from Mrs, Mitchell the former young woman was in court, silting by Mrs. Shearman. She leaned forwara, smiled approval at the witness, turned and re- peated to Mrs. Shearman and joliowed the whole line of interrogation with animation and sym- pathy. She has lost the look of restraint she first wore and seems to enjoy the courtroom and its coniab. Yesterday she tvok notes ana felt her momentousness. She had a blue bow tied in ber hair and wore a lace collar. Mr. Evarts then went intoa more minute in- quiry as to the condition of Bessie Turner, and at last started a storm 0! objections from the counsel | trom ‘he plaintitt Q. Did Bessie Lurner oear what Mr, Tilton said? A. Yes, she did, Q. What was the effect of that speecn? Mr. Beach- Objected to. BESSIE TURNER'S GRIEF, Q. How did Bessie Turaer benave when she overicard what Mr. Tilton said? A, Sne sank | down on the lounge, and | thiuk she was weeping at the time, Mr. Morris objected, and said it was of no con- sequence woat Miss B: e Tarner did or said. The Judge told Mr. kvarts to modify tus ques- tion, aud the answer was the foregoing. GOING FOR THE NURSE, The examination of Mrs. Mitchel’ had been very laboriously couducted by Mr. Evarts, as she replied slowly, and her teeth would have come out as easy as her answers, Mr. Fullerton took up a memorandum and pro- ceeded to catechize her. In a minute she slipped on dates, aud had achiid born six months after a lormer one by Mrs. Tilton. This was too much progress, and the rather aged witness drew out ver silver spectacles aud examined a little book. “I keep,’ sne said, explanatorily, “a list of all \ my sicknesses.” Miss Turner, Who had taken off one of her brown kids, also consulted a meworaudum book, CROSS-EX AMINATION, By Mr, Fullerton—\Wnat was the time you said you last went to Mr, Tilton’s? A, Decemoer, 1871; Paul was born in July, 1369, Counsel here put the wiiness toa rigid cross- examination a8 to dates aud periods of time, Witness pulled our a memorandum aud corrected herse.f in regard to one date. Witness—Whea | stated that she had been ill for @ week prior to the 24th of December | said it Irom earsay, not from my personal knowledge; she bad an attendant piysicilan, who saw her every day; I siept with Mrs. Tilton in bed every | nigut; when Mr. Tiiton called to see her on that day it was about the middie of the day; he was alone, and [ was in ths room wheo he said, “i tave been discharged irom the Union, and 1 am a ruined man; that was the | only Interview avott Mr. fiton to which L have | testified; [do not remember the date; 1 do not Know the day of the week; it was shortly alter Tarrived there; I tink tt was’ about the middie ol the Week; | came there ou a Saturday, and this occurred about the middie of the tollowing week; 1am sure that he said those words; that was the time [ told him tuar the doctor nad’ y orders to keep Mrs. Tiitou quiet; Mr. Tilton went out tor @ short time, buc recurned again; [cannot swear Posttively that he returned to the room; Lcanuot recollect how long it Was ater Mr, Tilten’s first visit to the sick room that he said T am dis. charged Irom the Brooklya Union, Lam ramed;” L caunot distinctly remember when it was at first I admonished bim uot to aisturb the room; the night Mr. Beecher came to the house was 30th of December, 1871; 1 recolivct it because it was Fri- day, and I know that t8 the day tor Piymouth ch prayer meotings; | was in Mra, Pilton’s | 1 When the Knock came und | went out aad i do hot remember whether he I finally spoke to htm and ASKED TIM TO COMB IN3 J then went down stairs; | went of my own ac cord; hoone asked me to go; 1 shut the door | when | Went dowd Stairs; noone asked me to aout | it; Murs. Tilton was ia bed waeu Mr, Beecher calied; | | to see Mrs, Tilton f sne Was propped up by piliows; I was about an hour aosent from Mrs. Tiiton's room; I remained | down staits while he wae up in the room; I knew when he Weat out. Q, Did you go down stairs when Mr. Moulton called? A. No sir; that Was in the daytime. Mr. Fullerton—Then it was only ip the night- time that you went downstairs if anyoody The witness laughed a: bad tumbied into an awkward plight. A. Tuere were joiding doors between tie two rooms, bat they were kept shut; | do not kpow whether there were writing marerta’s tn Mrs. Tilton’s room; I do not think there was @ secretary in her room. Mr. Fullerton here stopped, and said, smiling. to the Judge, “Mr, Evarts asks lor an adjournment.'? ‘The Court then adjourned until two P. M. AT RECESS, The quality of Mrs, Mitcheli’s testimony was on- Gerstood by a few of those who affect to follow the case closely. By her t defence desires to pave the way for Bessie Turner and Mrs. Morse, who will en- deavor to make tt plain tnat Mrs. Villon, wile | very sick, at a period of childbirth or miscarriage, | was assailed by her husband with the news | that he had been discharged from Bowen's pa- pers by Beecher’s influence and was a ruined man, &c, The nurse in vain exhorted him not to annoy his wile or make ber read or write, or hear reading, but still Mr. futon did intrude his business troubles upon @ woman who had lost much streugth, and the defence expects to show that while in this condition Mrs, Titon made the confession of adultery. Also that it was extorted from ber by his machinations and brutality. Mrs, Mitchell, the nurse, remembers enough of some- thing that happened in Mrs, Tiltdn’s illness to aid the succeeding witnesses, On the whole, mystery hangs over this case, the mystery of almost total eclipse, but in the evi- dence of the past few days there appears a grow- ing rim of tight forthe defendant. It now seems tobe clear tnat Mr. Tilton’s relations with Mrs. Woodhu!l were more confidential than he has ad- mitted, and that they sprang as much irom in- clination as despair, The defence also proved yesterday that as soon as Tilton was discharged from Bowen’s papers Frank Mouiton came to see him. Every way the eye and mind go in this mystery it becomes a reflection of the infirmity of human judgment. It is, therefore, committed to ad- vocates who will probably commit tt to posterity as one of the muddies of our nature. At lunch yesterday, Mrs. Mitchell, Bessie Tarner, Mrs. Shearman and two other wit- nesses were ushered into @ private room together for conlerence, The lawyers for the defeuce have undoubtedly shown an enterprise and minuteness for Mr. Beecher deserving his highest gratitude, It 1s no longer in order to ask when the defence is to begin. It is mouiding a case, already tangible and almost plausible. In the end that which ts right and jost in this case will probably be fuund out, AFTER RECESS. At five minutes past two o’ciock the oross-exam- ination of Lucy M. Mitchell was resumed by Mr, Fullerton, Witness—The secretary in the room adjoining | that which Mr, Tilton occupied was gene- rally shut; I have seen it open sometimes; did not see writing materials tu it.
