BEACH'S VIGOROUS ADDRESS. The Characteristics and Idiosynerasies of the Defendant. HIS CURIOUS FIGURES OF SPEECH. | 4A Sermon by Counsel on the Christian View of Christ. THE SEDUCER DENOUNCED. | Another great throng of men aza women— Breater than ever before—flled the Brooxiyn court room yesterday morning. At ten o'clock every seat appeared to be occupied, but Bundreds more managed to squeeze in belere the bour for opening the proceedings was reached. Ai tmat time there was @ periect jam all around the room. Mr. and Mrs, Beecherand balf a dozen ladies, ‘Who appeared to be their friends, sat in the reo- ognized Plymouth churcn section of ime court room. Mr. Beach, who entered alone, was greeted with applause as on the previous day. “That was Well done,” observed a Beecher adverent to Judge Morris. “Yes,” replied Morris, 10 a jocular tone, “we know how to do it.” Walle the audience was evidently largely leavened with @ strange ele- ment, it did not seem that the reception extended to Beach was other than spontaneous. When ne | left the court room at jour o’elock he was loudly eneered on appearing on the street. ~ THE SPRECH of Mr. Beach yesterday was exceedingly fine and effective, and must take rank as the greatest 1o- rensic effort that nas been beard in a court of jus- tice in this country for many years, From begin- Bing to end it beld the ear of the large audience captive, At times the speaker reached almost toe | highest plane of impassioned eloquence. There | Was bai littie gesticuation, though whenever that aid to oratory was brought into play it was fone judiciously. ‘ When Beach ceased speaking at lunch time the | collar and lappels of bis coat, nis scarf and shirt front, appeared to have been sprinkled over with &@ watering pot. The perspiration ran down irom the crown of his head, and was distributed by the @ishevelled and scattered hair all over bim. His face was highly Qusbed; his eyes were moist ana | stood ont with a dazzling though unnatural lustre. He was greetea by anomber of people in the au- dience. ‘‘What a fine puipit preacner he would make,” remarked one, referring to Beach’s splen- aid presentation of the orthodox view of Christ as coatrasted wich that of Beecher’s. Tilton, Fuller- ton and Moulton were more than pleased wich the effort of the speaker. AN INTERPOLATION, Betore the proceedings began Mr. Porter stood | Gp and said Mr. Evarts would be unavoidably | ausent and unable to enjoy the continuation of Mr. Beach’s speech. Mr, Porter then spoke of the instnuation made the day before by bis learned | adversary in regard to the jury being iafuenced through any corrnpt means on tne part of the defenaant He disclaimed any literal Application to Tilton of the Shakespearian — qootation ne used in his address—“Down, lown, to heil aud say I sent thee thitner.” | Mr. Porter, it was feared, w: about to launen out into @ speech, and his friend Beaca | tookea up at him with an inquiring look, ex- pressive of a wish to know how long the iearned brotner intended to hold out. Mr. Porter took ap about ten minutes and then Mr. Beach rose and faid he was sure His Monor would give him credit for not meaning to impute to the other side the ‘use of any corrupt influence in regard to the jury. As co the Shakespearian expression made use of | Dy Mr. Porter he was still compelled to hold that the manner of the counsel impressed nim and oubers so deeply at the time that ne could not Belp repeating his conviction taat Mr. Porter meant to send hisciient “down, down to hell’? and jeave him there. There was a laugh ut this, aod then Mr. Beach turned around to begin bis Gay's work. POINTS OF THE SPEECH. Mr. Beach resumed his address by referring to the use and potency of words, and aweit for some | tume on the expression of Beecher, tand on | the brink of a moral Niagara,” snowing that this | form of expression and that of “paroxysmal | kiss” were perfectly characteristic of Henry Ward Beecber. Counsel referred to @ sermon of Mr. Deecher’s in the Water street Mission, in woich he described itas “@ parexysmai movement” of religion. He quuted singular expressions, such as “paroxysmai love,” “paroxysmal nate,” “the Xysm of love in ® motker for ber cntid,” and | the uke. Afier reading a long lust of these Mr. Beach contended that the author of such terms ‘Would be eminentiy apt to make use of “paroxys- Mai kiss,” and “I am standing on the brink of & moral Niagara,” thougn Mr. Porter insisted that notv were meaningiess and incapanie of being Qsed by 4 man of Mr. Beecher’s attainments. Counsel read st length from the writings and Sermons of beecner, quoting such outré Ggure of ‘Wweech as supporved toe position. He took up she leiter of Tiiton to bis wife, in which he speaks of what Christ might be if he had been married, wad passed on to contrast expressions of Christ made by Beecher in ols sermons. Reference was made to Mouiton’s epithets of “liar and libertine” as applied to Beecher, whica Counsel censured; but insisted they were only Qsed when Momiton had evidence to support ‘hem, Moulton’s carrying a pistol was expiainead BS a necessity he was under by reason of the Decullar basiness in which he was engaged and she bourses at night at which he was compelied to be out. He then passed on to pay @ rife of persousl attention to Judge Porter, saying teat though tocy were iriends for thirty years he was impelied, despite | thas friendship, and in the discharge o/ his cuty, to characterize bis course im this case as inde fensivie, Turmimg to the Court, counsel stigma- tizea the remarks of tae senior counsel on tue deher side, toat bis client is ® degraded seeker Jor pet! snd a mercenary litigant ior goid because Qe seeks to vindicate Mimseeli in a court of justice, NUMAN INFIRMITY. Counsel continued after recess and read a long Grticle irom the race. He | particularly instanced the case of Rev. Mr. Fay, of Boston, Who Was tor twenty-five years pastor of @ chures, aud bore as high and stainless & repotation as Henry Ward Beecter. He fell Yhrough adultery and was disgraced and ban- | shou, Counsel related other instances; of Rev. | Dr. Suuderiand’s predecessor at Wasaington, ac- fused of gross immorality and vecame a fagiti Of Kev, My, Thomp#on, of the Areb street Preaby- Verian charch, Pailadeipnia, charged with adul tery; Rev, Mr, Po Years pastor Of Bangor, Me., accused of visiting houses of Jil. 1am, and & host of other preachers, who prac- tised seduction. and demonstrated tat the pok Dit Was no more free irom the lusts of the fesn than any other position in uf.

Counsel then proceeded to deal with the collateral testimony produced by the defence to blacken and make odious tie name of Tilton, A SENSATIONAL REFERENCE. Beach in the course ol his adaress made @ sensa- tion by declaring, in answer 10 the taunt ofthe opposite counsel that they brought no practical crime, that when they weat to Jersey City to get at witnesses who lived in the Tilton household, | and who could prove all that was needed, they jound the lady zealots of Plymouth church were ahead of them and the witnesses spirited away.

MOULTON’S PROVOCATION, Moulton bad been @ faithful and devoted friend of Mr. Beecher, sacrificing tme and effort and character and morality, if you please, to save him from the consequences of nig offence, and Mr. Beecher, under tue condition and with the fact, as he swears to it upon this stand, made against him these false ana calumnious charges that he was a biackmatler, Some eXtravagaice of expression will be indulged on the part of Mr. houiton. Mr. Beecher 1s @ great man; he is revered und trusted by nrany souls; he has occupied a grand position in the eye of tne world, and no young man like Mr, Moulton, No; no gray-haired man has aright, whatever they may tiink of his purity and morality—no man has a right to say in his presence and to his face that ne isa larand # liberuue. Itis a sacrifice of that respect Wiich belongs to age, culture, dig- nity and position, Aye, it is @ disrespect Walch no feeling and upright man will offer even to fallen greatness, 1aon’t justify that, 1 don’t approve it; but this man, Mr. Moulton, is of an ardent and impulsive navure and he has exhibited it througbout all this complication of circum- stances. He made a rash and intemperate ex- preeaon, area but does that prove bim ‘dis- onest or unfaithful ¢ Does that justity my friend in saying that ne entertained tuese sentiments in regard to Mr, Beecher during the period in wich irtendly relations and the most intimate in- tercourse existe between them’ sy no Means. Never did Mr. Moulton utter a dis- respectful or irreverent expression of Henry Ward Beecner uatll after the incident to which I have directed your attention, I he sinned he sinned uuder great provocation. Ifhe was true friend the togratitude of Mr, Beecner is inexpressible. If ne was 40 Dooest and trusty iriend 1 must suy it was buse aud horrid in Mr, Beecher to inpute to him a character and fh plead which rendered Moulton, if it was true, Infamous in the eyes of tne world, “if he were a true friend the ingratitude of Mr. Beecher was inexpressibie.”” There was deep at- tention in the faces of two men—Moulton and Beecher—at this moment. Beach censured Moal- ton severely for using the terms “har and liber- tine’? to an old gray-headed man like Beecher, “put he never used them,’ said the counsel, “until he had evidence to justly them.” Beecher held a paper over bis mouth and Moulton had a handkerchief to his nose. PORTER REBUKED. Now, then, gentlemen, su far as the examina- tlon of the particular propositions of tne specific representations made by my friend, Mr. Porter, Lamdone. In aoctning that I bave said in regard to the gentieman will any one suppose that my respect and affection for that gentieman, originating and grown through tmrty years of the most Intimate professional and personal rela- tions of friendsbip, bas at all abated, 1 do not say if in the vein of compiument, “but i have always regarded him us one of the proudest exempiars of our profession, aud im all the lotercourse between us, Whatis some- what remarkabie, I think, for we liave been en- gaged in opposition upon exciting questions, Woich have moved the steroest and the most irritavie feelings of the community, and never, in the ardor of professional debate und contest, hay there passed between us w rufle or a word of unkindness.

He was on tne popular track aud every heart was with him. He was picturing @ dishonored nome, a jamily broken up, and the blight of ruin and disgrace resting on thom forever. Beeoser snowed visibic uneasiness under the terrible presentation the eloquent lawyer made.

Frequent attempts at applause were checked. Beecher averted his head, and nis face flushed more deeply than ever as the counsel, rolling forth a periect torrent of fery eloquence, glowing like @ molten stream of Java, cried out, till the Court House shook, against indulgence to the hoary-headed seduacer, TOTAL DEPRAVITY NOTICED. But what becomes, under this doctrine of Mr. Evarts, of the teaching of the Scriptures, that we are utcerly depraved; that mone of us are good; no, not one; that the heart 1s deceitful above all things and desperately wicked ? What becomes of tus theory of the depravity of human nature ? Was there a fall? And in the sin of Adam did all men sint Is i¢ the teaching of inspiration that human nature is depraved, deceitful and desper- atey What becomes of the agony of Gethsemane and of Calvary? Where was tne necessity that a Governor should descend and dic to redeem the sins of humanity? And this is to be rewritten? Mr, Beach then proceeded to consider the value of character and denied the proposition advanced by the defence, that Beecher was too pure, saintly and godlike to commit the ein of adultery. “Great and good as Mr, Beecher "may have been,” said the speaker, ‘he is yet in the eye of God and in the eye of man fallible sinner.” Counsel tnen went on to say that if the case depended alone on oral evidence he would hesitate before he would belleve she charge against Beecber’s oath and character. He gave value to character, es- pecially if animated by sincere piety, and would not assail it lightly, nor would he be the organ of light assault upon such a character. “But,” said counsel, ‘when it forces me into court, cnallenzes investigation, qaims entire purity and excellence; when it seeks’ to overthrow the reputations of men, if not as holy, yetas exemplary as himself, reputations as dear to them as is his to himself, then I examine that character fearlessly, and I shall talk of it as in my Judgment this evidence shall justily.’”” Here the Court took a recess until two o’clock. DURING RECESS @ man made his appearance in court, and began selling 2 paper headed the Sun, which contained # scurrilous attack upon Mr, Beecher and aiso on Judge Neilson, Ex-Judge Dailey expostulated with the fellow; Who exclaimed, “Your side have had their stow, and now we'll have ours!” When Jndge Netlson learned the fact he ordered the man to be arrested, and then reprimanded bim severely for his unwarrantaple couduct. He also told the vender that if he was found in the court room again, or even in the building, he would be sent to prison, Over 1,000 copies of the et were seized. AFTER THE RECESS.

Al the plaintiff's counsel save Pryor are in their places, Fullerton again in a white vest and tle, and Morris in @ light striped summer suit, bork exceedingly well pleased with the business of the day so far. Mr. Beach, resuming, referred to @ passage in Porter's address in which he quoted the opiniou expressed b. writer in the Sun that this Was a case of blackmailing. Mr, Beact sald that of whatever Value tne opinion of the writer might be in the early stage of this controversy, and how- ever clearly he might pave formed and expressed the opiuion that this was an arrant case of biack- mailing, it would be difficult for mim to maintain Beecher himsell.

LUCIFER, THE GREAT ARCHANGEL, fell, And soit is through the long list of exame ples, all proving the doctrine of man’s depravity und lis proneness to sin. Ail the examples of ile tend to prove that the most exalted aud honored are not only subject to temptation, but are too weak to resist the passions. Ail tue lessons of our own experience irom which we can derive prooi are Opposed to these unsound and corrupting theories, You remember the case of the learned and emt- nent Dr. Webster, of Boston. Dr. Webster, wno was connected with the faculty of an institution which is a brilliant rival of apy in tue O.d or the New World, te was exaited in the estimation of society and of the community of Bosvon; yet he~ was, 12 an evil moment, tempted by mercenary motives, and he murdered Dr, Parkman, He waa arrested, be denied his gut. He was put on trial and with all the influence of lis great character and despite the host of induential friends that gathered about him the evidence sustained the charge of his guilt ana he was convicte | and ex- ecuted. And the argument in bis behalf w. then, us itis now, that tals man’s power, and life and character, wnich were imbedded in the fecttons of the community, were sudicient guar antee that he could not pave been guilty. No eye saw that deea committed. No ear nad heard the cry of the victim, and it Was on circumstan- ial evidence alone that vois nigh ana distin~ gaisued character yielded to the strong jadgment of the law. You, gentlemen, have noticed the recent case of Palmer, who stovud high in the estimation of the society in which he moved, vut who, in & moment or temptation, absconded witn the fundsor the widows and orphans which had been imtrusted to his care, Butaday or two ago he wus brought vack to the country by tue police.

After rolling off his long series of cases iliu& trative of the infrmities of preachers, of the s@- auctions and immoralities with which they have been charged and of which so many have been found gulity and disgraced, the counsel cried out, “And now are we to be told that this man, Henry Ward Beecher, is mcapable of the weaknesses that adhere to human nature 9” Mr. Beach said that Mr. Evarts, in order to giv you the ciearest idea of the tmmaculateness vu! this judgment, said, *You must judge ana try nim as you wouid judge and try any other mau 80 ine dicated.” if the power oi Heury Ward Beecner is to be placed agaist the preponderauce of truth Why is there auy Hesitation among men as to toe unavoidable resait upun the evideuce in this case? if my friends will relieve th lves irom tuis theory of iucapacity irom sin; if they coniess that Mr. Beecher 1s mertal and subject to feel all tnar otaer mortals uiay, they will abandon the pretence that there 18 pot the sugntest evidence of guus inst Mr. Beecher. . Beach then proceeded to discuss that poiut of Mr. Evarts’ argument whereia he dwella upoa the charge that Mr. Beecher’s physical sirengta was an indication of his jiaoiity to fall, Mr. Beach asserted that it w: bsurd to pretend thas have the same degrees of passional emotion. The whole scope of the argument now is to prove that Beceber 1s not above temptation nor above human infirmities. The audience are pro- foundly attentive, for evidently the counsel hag condensed a vast quantity of suggestive facts late this part oi his speech.
