The Tilton-Beecher Trial.
THIRTY-sIxTH DAY.-The prosecution rested
it's case, much to the disappointment of Mr..
Tlton's partisans, who had expected revela-
tons far more startling and convincing than
any that have yet been made The witness
Carys testimony was discredited in small de-
gree by a further cross examination which
went to show that she was not a person of
strictly abstemious or virtuous habits. Gen.
Tracy will open the case for the defense. ALI
that remains to be done is to attempt the moral
vindication Of Mr.. Beecher. The question of
damages is too remote and abstract for consid-
Grafton. Mr.. Tlton having condoned his wife's
offense, can expect no pecuniary compensation
from her alleged seducer
THIRTY DAY.-The whole day was
consumed by Gen. Tracy, of counsel for the
Defense in the delivery Of his opening address.
He entered into a review of the career of the
parties to the suit. Of course his.own client
was pictured as the paragon Of all the virtues,
while Iilton was held up as the incarnation of
all that was egotistical, selfish, sensual and
ignoble. Jealousy of Beecher's great name was,
according to Tracy, the incentive that led to
Tilton's attack upon him.
THIRTY EIGHTH DAY-Gen. Tracey's opening
argument for the defendant occupied the entire
| day, and was still unfinished at the tim Of adj
| journment
| THIRTY-NINTH DAY.--Tracy still continued his
opening plea for the defense. He devoted
some portion of his time to an explanation of
his connection with the case, He contends
that at a certain interview with Woodruff,
Moulton and 1ilton, he promised not to act as
counsel for Beecher, because at that time Til
toms charge was simply Improper advances y
but afterward, when, as he maintains, Tilton
fchanged his charge to adultery accomplished,
he felt that he was released from any promise,
and so gave notice. There is now possibility,
not only of having Bowen on the witness stand,
but Tracy ALSO
FoRTIErH DAY.-Tracy concluded his plea for
the defense and his impeachment of the testi-
mony put in evidence by the prosecution.
Beecher and Tracy were congratulated by a
numerous crowd of gentlemen. The defend
ant was calm and unexcited, and appeared to
feel much satisfaction at the enthusiasm of his
admirers. Judging from the theories advanced
by Mr. Tracy, the defense will try to prove: l..
| That jealousy of Beecher's success was Tilton s
motive for trying to ruin him. g. That the
knowledge that Beecher possessed an undue
share of Mrs. Tilton's affections was another
motive and 3. That financial embarrassments
led Tilton to attempt blackmail.
