The Tiiton-Beecher Trial.
SIxTY-FoURTH DAY.-Mr. Beechers testimony
was explanatory of the letters that passed be-
tween Mrs. Tilton and himself. Mr.. Fullerton
called the attention of the court to the fact
that Mr.. Beecher had before him a memoran-
dunn of the questions to be asked and his an
swers thereto. This was frequently referred to
by the witness, for the purpose of refreshing
ing on the part of witness was the subject of
good deal of remark.
SIxTY-FIFTH DAY.-The day was spent in ex-
amining Mr.. Beecher's letters and eliciting
from the witness explanations of them. His
manner was firm and solemn, and his denaIs
most emphatic.
SxTY-s1xTH DAY.-The proceedings opened
quietly and tamely with the resumption of
the chain of evidence from the point where it
was left off the previous day. Beecher gave
number of emphatic denials to statements
made by plaintiff /; and one in particular, which
seemed to put Tracy's position in more IA
vorable light than it has been hitherto re-
garded. In reply to a question, Mr.. Beecher
said the first intimation he received that Gen.
Tracy had been consulted in regard to the
difficulties between Tilton and Beecher was
from Frank Moulton. Witness had not been
consulted in regard to this selection of Mr..
Tracy nor of any one else.
SIXTY-sEvENTH DAY.-Mr. Beecher continued
his testimony, which related almost wholly to
Mrs Moultons sworn statement of her various
interviews with him, and in which, upon sew
eral occasions, according to her evidence, he
confessed and admitted the truth of Tilton's
charges. Each and every one of the material
points in Mrs. Moulton's evidence were fatty
contradicted by Mr.. Beecher.
