Eyarts- Argument.

NEW YORK, MAY 2s--Mr Evarts continued
his address on the opening OF the Tilfon-
Beecher trial to-day. He said he was asking
the jury's attention TO what the law required
as legal certainty on questions OF this crimi-
nality having an influence on the happiness
OF others. There were some relations between
Beecher and Tilton which were a part of the
case; these relations partoofr'of the nature OF
those which should exist between the clergy
man and his parishioner. The number OF
visits during the many years of confessed
intimacy Were limited 10 but one in I'VE or
six weeks. In regard TO any visits OF Mrs
Tilton To Beecher, there was no evidence OF
any at all. Counsels learned friends never
asked Beecher If he saw her at his house and
there was 10 evidence that Beecher saw her
there. Beyond this, what were
