Disagreement and Discharge Of
the Brooklyn Jury.

AtlaStwe have M end Of the great
Beecher.rilton trial, and some people
will call 1t "most lame and impotent
conclusion" After a six months session
the jury have been dischargedf for lack Of
ABILITY to agree, standing at the last 0 for
aequ'ttal aud 3 for conviction, or, in
other words, 0 for Beccher and 8 for
Tilt6n.
Alter all that was said during tho trial
by Mr. Beach and others, in regard to the
Jury having been tampcrcd with the yer.
dict does not savor very sttonply n
"irregularity." AS we remarked n day

to select twelve men in Wheeling, a,

And what is true Of Wheeling Ia true oil

this remarkable case. There arc yety
many who believe Mr., Beechcr innocent,
There are large number who believe
him guilty. There are not few who
think him guilty to q certain extent. So
