its entire history large proportion of itz nleui-

The Brooklyn Trial.

Mn. BEEcHER's DIRECT TESTIMONY oLosED-HIs
CROSS EXAMINATION BEGUN.
At 12.15 o'clock, yesterday, Mr.. Evarts closed
the direct examination of Mr.. Beecher, the con-
Guiding matter being repetitions Of the positive
all sweeping denials previously given that the
defendent had ever held improper relations with
Mrs. Tilton. This formed the climax to his tes-
tlmony. Mr.. Fullerton then began his cross ex-
animation, and the Tribune report admits that
Mr., Beecher gave some natural signs Of uneasiness
at first, though they did not continue long, and at
the close he said iocosely that he did not feel
that his "hide had been taken of, !" ."though,'
he added, "there is no telling what will come to-
morrow" The questions addressed him by MIR.
Fullerton covered wide scope of subjects but
ihe answers were consistent with his direct tes-
tlmony, and he suffered nothing, apparently.
1t ID fully expected that Mr. Beecher will be
done with this week. probably on Thnrsday.--
and there is little doubt that Mrs. Tilton viii
then be called by the defence. Mr.. Morris OF
counsel for Mr. Iilton stated yesterday that the
plaintiffs counsel would not object to the recep
lon OF her testimony, and Judge Nelson ha,
already said that, both sides consenting, he
should permit her to be sworn.

The New York Tribune says the prospects fol-
the building trade for the coming season in that
city have not materially improved since last year
when they were net as good as in 1873. Several
reasons are assigned for the present dullness in
the trade-the dullness in business generally,
tle reduction OF rents without a corresponding
reduction in the cost of building materials, which
have fallen off slightly since the last year; the
obstinate and uncompromisipg attitude Of the
trades unions, and the consequent frequent
strikes among the workmen.
