THE CASE GONE AGAINST BEECHER-A
New York letter says: Icannot be mist ken
already gone against Mr.. Beecher. 1t would
be premature, with respect TO all fair and
judicial minds, TO say this at the present
stage, II the defence, among its several err
rors had been committed the cardinal one OF
giving itself TO the public in advance of trial.
Otherwise, men would say TO themselves
and each other, ''wait until you have heard
him." AS IL is, they can only say, I'VE have
heard him'-and so they make up their con-
clusion at once, confident from the nature OF
the case that nothing of great importance
can have been omitted in the testimony on
Mr.. Beecher's behalf before the church COM
mittee and the public. last summer.
