“THE EVERLASTING TRIAL Scandal Suit. PORTER STILL CONCLUDING. He Repeats Many of His Pre- vious Arguments. EVARTS TO SPEAK TO-DAY. One of the Jurymen Complains of Illness. It was a duil morming at the Brooklyn trial yes- terdayrand the attendance was less dense than usual, Many got tired and went away before noop. The counsel repeated himself. His logic Was weak. Abuse of Tiltou was the staple of bis address, and the jury snowed signs of weariness. He went over the argument again that because Henry Ward Beecher was @ wWinister of the Gos- pel and spoke tue doctrines of Corist !rom Sab- Dath to Sabbath, becanse he joined men and rromen in wedlock, prayed over the graves of tne dead and wore gray hairs that he could not be guilty of aduitery. The counsel said nothing original and introduced little beyond what he bas already touched on. Beecher himself listened with an appearance of diminished interest. Several of the women grew sleepy, Evarta settied himself down into a cane-bottomed chair, his chin resting on bis breast and a look of intense gravity on bis face. Mr, Beach went on calmly taking Notes, and once ina while jooking up at Porter with a quizzical expression of face that would seem to say, “How little yon believe of ali you are speak- ing.” While Porter’s voice was clearer than on the firs’ . his odd, jerking Manner caused him to be heard in parts of lis speech with much dittl- culty, The rising and failing inflection touched exiremes. MOULTON’S COMING INTO COURT, He was at times very vigorous, but oa the whole onequal. Tilton and Mouiton came in fora full share of denunciation. Moulton entered the court room after twelve, just as Porter was saying that he was either atrae manor a liar, and was pro- eveding to prove him the latter, Moulton wore & white summer Vest and a light hat, with @ mourn- ing band around it, He took @ seat next ex- Judge Morris, and was the observed of observers. If Beach adop's tne same style as Porter, and shakes his ‘orefinger in the face of Beecher «8 Porter does in the face of Tilton, singles him out before the jury and gudience, aud hurls volley niter volley of abuse at pim, it will De a dreadful scene to look upon, for Beach has a voice of thun- cer and an eye that shoots forth lightning. Many people are of the opinion that Porter's ad- dress, so lar as its influence on the jury 1s con- cerned, might as well never bave beeu delivered. ‘they say the jury have mude up their minds alreauy, and Porter's rather ‘eebly forcivie speech Will not alter them. It is conceded, however, that Beach may produce® change, for no lawyer ever stood up to aadress a jury who will be so thoroughly equipped for A GREAT FORENSIC EFFORT. ‘He has paid close attention to his adversary’s ad- dress, constantly noting such points advanced by Porter as he expects to be able to demolish. Then he 18 @ man of such intense convictions, of 80 earnest a delivery ana of so clear and common sense a style of expression that the jury will find it Bari to withstand nim. He can alter their opinion if any man can. A PROTRACTED SPEECH. Porter made the anuouncement at the opening pf his speech that during tne day his learned friend, Mr. Evarts, would follow nim. Tne gen- tral impresses was tbat he wouid certainiy be done by recess, bat the audience was disap- pointed, and Jadge Porter 1s destined to consume the bicom of this morning before we are per- matted to hear the learned and brilliant Evarts. Judge Porter, previous to tuis trial, bore the reputagion of being @ calm, logical speaker. The speech he bas made to the jury in this Beecher trial will hardly ve regarded calm and ogical. A gentieman of Brooklyn ftiy character- wed it taump speech. Parts of it were cer- ly exceptional, especially where invective of a very personal and offensive nature was substi- ya‘ed in a markedly conspicuous manner for logic and ergument. MOULTON SAT BACK bis chair and lookea toward the eastern win- flow while Porter denounced him tothe jury asa sbeat anda liar. He showed no sign of efnotion, td as Porter came to speak of Mrs, Moulton -saiuting the adulterer of Plymouth chureh with a kiss in the presence of her hasband” be me augned. He seemed to be perfectly » lawyer Was acting s piece and sponsinie for his expressions. Tilton treated the senuneistory language of Porter ip much the jame spirit The Beecher people, of course, were Jelignted at every plrase of indignation and sbuse hurled at the so-called conspirators. BEN BUTLER RAPPED. Porter was particularly severe om Moulton for 6 conduct in regard to the papers committed to ais charge by Beecner. Ben Buticr also came in or a few severe raps in regard to his advice to douiton, Counsel said, “Waat ia the sense of touor that would allow one man (Tilton) to have seceas bo Any papers ne Liked, and would deny the jame privilege to the other, wno was the owner Ww these papers?’ This was snostantiatly what sutler advised Moulton to do. Perhaps this was oat the best point the counsel made against ¢oalton, and he bad the sympatuies of the audience 6 his denunciation of the treachery and mean- ness practised on Beecher by denying him ace ots OWn papers, while Tilton was iree to read ny be iiked. Porter dwelt at length om this wanch of the conspiracy charge, ana made it iretty clear thag, while Tilton could do almost as @ pleased with Beecner’s letvers, Beeoner was leprived of seeing one. PORTER RUNNING OUT. \f Mr. Bisel, one of the jurors, had not com- veined of Ulness Judge Porter might probabiy save coneladed yesterday afternoon. He will oc- upy out a short perioa of this morning sion, wud Wil them be followed oy Mr. Evarts in a ‘peech that will certaiaiy occupy the remainder of he week. AN INCIDENT IN COURT. Daniel S.

The thom» of bis right hand is simply tucked in his vest armhole, and the coming speaker bides his time. Porter is :mpressive and his voice is under better command than at any tume since he began to address the jury. His manner is eloquent and he does not shake his fist in Tilton's face so often, and the audience begiu to think that ne has given up the gestures. But it ts only for @ moment. ‘This suppressor of earthquakes and of avalanches,” shouts the counsel, and then be turns and again we see the trembling fist in the air and Know that Tilton ts going to catch it.

It is againet such jitom that tae world hy right to claim the interpositioo of a court of J @ for the spirit which he has expibited in this cise, li It Was permitted to run rampaot—men, like woives, will rush forth to devour eacu otber. Wich regard to Moulton, 1 am impressed with the feeling tuat I have done injustice to our cause In giving him more than a passing notice. The issue here formed is between Tilton and the man he ac- cases, Lf Tilton is aiaise accuser you need go no jurthef. If he's untrastworthy and rottea—cor- fopt to brain, in brawn and marrow—no Witness he can cali Wil reiustate nim in the judgment of honest Men. Where does Moulton stand to-day in your estimation and in the judgment of even bis iriends—in the judgment of the pecple of the city ol Brookly a. to the judgment of the millions of mea who read from day to day the records of this trial? It is hot for te, ls for you to pronounce your ver- dict on that. Right @t toe turesbold of the argu- ment ia tnat brancn of it devoted to him J con- fronted him with his own words on that memo rable ist of June, written beneatn own root, to ve :@ vy Heary Ward Beecher and to be roduced on ihis trial. Who is this man, who eves a minister of tne Gospel commends bim- seif to lis parispioners by the Commission of adultery ? who veueves that apostasy will com- mend this greynaired man to the confidence of the men ang women and chiloren to whom ne #peaks from Saboatn to Sabbath, whom he vlesses at she baptiswal font, wuom he joius tovether at the altas, and Whom he commits to the grave? Does fie believe that?’ Did he on that 1st 6: June believe that the most emiment man io Christepdom, Henry Ward Beecher, stood among them Man Who preached from Sabbata to Sabbath to forty of his mistresses—as 4 man Who lad grown from youth to age, growing rottener day Oy day—as 4 man steeped 10 Bypoc- ud Wno could go from tee e swears co you toat le knew all this wuen he penned that ietrer, where oe says, ‘You cau stand it if the whole case was pubisned.”” This man spoke the trath then, but when uttered on the stand it Was a 1avrication and a lie, te says, you know “tha: I jove you.” Frang Mowion is @ heathen, vut there Was one not @ neathen ad- dressed by anotier—“Peter, lovest thou me?” “Lord, thon knowest that | iove thee.” Can you conceive antagonism sironger or more terrible here in (his case?

The rain falls silently outside and the air 1s balmy and coo, The moist atmosphere and tne absence of dust coming through the wice-opened windows n es the day an enjoyable oue for Judge, counsel, jury and the audience. Every breath of airthat is watted in the breeze refresnes the lungs ofall, and Judge Porter 1s evidently in betver voice and he is abie to make himself heard more regularly, Still tne stenographers havea bard time of it, and they whisper now and thea & Word that only one or two have caught, Jutga Porter’s manner 13 to go on witha sentence in crisp language and clear tones and then suddenly sink bis voice to almost a whisper, It bas the ame effect on the reporters ag an exhaust pamp bas on a miserabie mouse, Itis an aaricular vacuum, and the penclis pause and are suspended of animation because the ear cannot h Per- plexing labor to make the best of tt.

Robinson was brought oy ihen to tne stand. It occurred to that clear. neaded ana Jar-sighted lawyer, who seems by in- tuition to know the truth even cefure itis re- vealed, (vu asx of Mr. Robinson the question, “When did Frank D, Moulton cease to be a inem- ber of that firm ?’—this, you will remember, to an uncle of Mrs. Moulton. “Our parinersnip ceased on the 1st of January, in pursudnee of un agree- ment made something like a year ago.’ ‘Lhe time 1s significant, too, as being tne time the last plackmull attempt was mase. The time sat down for the dissolution of partnersivp was the Ist of Jupuary, but at lis Golicita'ton there Was 4M eXtension of time to the Ist of Feb- rnary, and Jeremian P. Rovinson swore that they had entered on the Ist of January into a formal agreement tnt trom the st of February that partnership in ali its branches should be for- ever at an end. Theodore Tilton and Frank D. Moulton had done everything in their testimony to convey the impression that the claim for $7,00) against Bowen Was one which Bowen never denied. Why!’ Because they knew that right behind the admisston of that fact \ay the clew to the original conspiracy. Henry C. Bowen, wno lived in a palace. was not the editor but the owner of one of tre great religious papers of the man of fortune, who Would not rejuse the payment of an honest debt, When the time came that the Golden age could no longer float, and ihe sum of $7,000 was needed to floas it, then came that. blackmail card = purporting to coutain @ charge against Henry ©. Bowen. Tilton makes pis Way down Jroadway, and by a happy conceptive thought he would go and see nix old imend Sam Wiikesou, He drew out of his pocket the well-worn gailey slip containing the hvellous letter [rom Theodore Tiiton to Henry ©. Bowen. He told Wilkeson that Bowen owed him $7,000 and would not pay it, and added that justice must prevail though the heavens fell. Counsel dilited at length on the interview ve tween the plainti’ and Wilkeson, ana contendeil tuat the former took this Way of communicating with Bowen, knowing that Wilkeson would In- form him of hts intentions, Wilkeoon asked Ti- ton to leave the mutier to him, saying that if Bowen owed the money he must pay it, Counsel then alluded to tne arbitration meeting which followed as wellas to the tripartite agreement, which ne said would have bound any one but a barbarian. Tiltou got bis $7,000, which he could not have obtained by any other process than that resorted to, and in fis @Xu!tation he hands it to Woodrofl with (he entry on the back of it, in his own acknowledged candwritiog, “Spoils from new friends for the benef: of old.” Counsel called attention to the fact that Mr. Moulton, ag well as Mr. Tilton, on their direct examination, took great pains to show that there was no de- fence to this claim for $7,000. Tliton praessed to have jorgotten that he brought the suit lor the recovery of toe money. it was important for them to disavow the charge of black. mati and to make the jury believe that Bessie ‘Turner was sent away to save Henry Ward Beecher. Counsel reerred at length to the evidence of Bessie Turner and refuted the idea that she had circulated any siangerous re- oris concerning the defendant, and yet these forth that Uessie Turner bad been sent away to conceal the aduitery of Mrs, Tilton with Henry Ward Beecher. Moulton produced letters which he called clandestine letters irom Mrs, Vilton to Henry Ward Beecher and to these letters ne and his iriend Butler seek to vive a lascivious ang base interpretation. Now, ventiemen, there is @ little fact woich you will weil rememoer. First, that Frank Moulton came inty possession of the | clandestine letters, Waich had been written dar- ing his absence iu Florida, by Henry Ward Beecher delivering them to aim. What sort of clandestiuity 1s that in whicu the adniterer deliv- ers to the next irtend of the busband of the paramour the letters whten are to | be the evidence of the aduitery? That is significant enough to characterize the | baseness of these men; but there is more. One of these ictters Was in its envelope when it was Oftered vn the Witness stand. The envelope was marked, the letter was marked; the letier was read in evidence, aud my friend Mr. Evart that eye WHICH sees civarer than most of us upon the point significantiy appearing uoon thas evel- e, that it Was addressed w Mrs, Tilton, care of sdore Ttiton, No. 124 Livingston street, Brooke lyn, aud gent by mai, Are clandestine Jetiers peut 0) a0 adaulterer to an adulteress to the care of the husband, at his own dweliiug ana through the public mul?

Counsel then proceeded to refer to the letter uation, which he said Was @ Specimen Of Frank Mouiton’s liierary aull- ity. Mouitou represents Henry Ward beecoer, @ Master o! the English languave, as writing a paper aduressed ty his courch, and whicu he Knew Would the next morning be in every newspaper that was in telegrapuic commantication on tnis continent. And Heary Ward Beecher, according to Frank Moulton, says: “I resign Piymoat evurcn!” A pastor of a churca who did not KD euouga to write Knulish for even four times! OF course you do not believe it.

Some delay took )lace before Judge Porter re- sumed bis speech after the recess. The jadies, twenty or thirty in number, returned to their seats. Mrs. Beecher wore a string of blae fowers under the rim of ner bonnet. Mr. Bypcher came back to the Court lookiog fresh and vigorous. Tne trial bas become an attraction to some of those who attend it. Mr. Beecuer seems to take to it kindly now. Even Judge Neilson thinks when it 1s over be will miss it as ao amusement, As for Tilton, it 1# an entertainment of superior merit that he is not likely to tire of for some days to come. Moulton did not return, and consequently Missed the delightful compliments paid him by | the counsel. As Judge Porter maicated that he was nearing his peroration a decided sense of re- lief came into the minds of such reporters as had all slong been baving @ palufal straggie to report the learaed counsel, Evarts ayain took @ seat over by the jury and looked Porter in tne face. Judge Porter resumed his address by saying:— There 18 a simple point to addt‘ion to bene Fo os of Mr. Moulton Whieo I wish to call your attention te relying, in tne main, on your memory of ais g eral testimony, unaided by any suggestions irom Lallade (o it because it 18 one of those litte earmarks of faiseuood or tratn, the tuing may be, w enable you to judge of a great many other Matters, in regard to which (he truth may ve indistinct and ooscure.
