Beach Rises to Explain
And Continues his Speech.

New YORK. June 1.-The rush for
seats in the Brooklyn City Court this
morning, was Us great rs ever, and every
inch of standing room was occupied
Tilton and Beecher We're carly in attend
ance.
After the Court was opened, Beach
called attention to the publications IN the
papers this morning, and SAID before
making any application or suggestion to
the Court, he wished to consult his ass"-
ciatcs, and after recess he would take
whatever steps might be necessary IN the
matter.
Mr.. Beach then said his friend Judge
Porter, had received letter from W o.
Bartlett, in which the latter dIsrlaimrd
authority for the articles quoted IN the
summing up ior the plaintiff, and sald he
considered It proper to mention tins fact,
As he had referred to Mr.. Bartlett con-
ncction with the journal in which the
article appeared Beach then said he had
had Il conversation with Mr.. Porler, and
that there was no difference between his
brother and himself Mr.. Porter rosr,
and after saying that the charge OF I'M
proper advances had been expressed, !
claimed, he observed that he might have
used too strong language IN speaking on
subject so important.
Mr.. Beach then resumed his address to
the Jury. Mr. Beach, referring to his re-
marks on Thursday in reference to Rev.
Mr.. Southland, cf New Jersey, said that u
relative of the latter gentleman of high

though nervous aiiiiction had induced
Mr.. Southland to make excessive use OF
stimulauts, the charge Of RIGHTEOUSNESS
had never been brought against him
He regretted his error, and took pleas
ure in making the correction.
Reach Then spoke of Mr. Richards,
and said he was one OF the most respect
ed members of that Christian dcnomina-
ton. He had come to this court, which
could not be resisted, and his dcmcanor
on the stand showed him TO be most re-
liable witness. Approaching the deli
racy of his position, counsel did not
press for anything more than general
statement Of his observations, although
If he had been drawn out 10 give the de-
tails of his statement it might have been
more painful to himself and detrimental

then read an article by the Rev. Dr.
Curry. in the Christian .IdrocGt" which
sets forth that cruel and brutal attack
had been made upon Mr.. Richards 10y
defendants council
Mr.. Beach then defended y. Is. Mar,
TIN one of the witnesses, and then refer
red to an allusion, by the counsel for the
defense. to the course of Mr.. MouIton II
regard to Miss Proctor. He said MouI
ton by the advice of counsel, had no
. published his own attack upon that lady
. but merely the statement which Beechei
| had made To him in regard to her. In,
. statement was undoubtedly actlonablc
and Moulton had paid the counsel fees ii
/ the matter. He then referred to an al!u
| sion 10 the difficulty OF Mou.t"ns Urn
with the Government in connection wit:
the revenue laws, and said that such ret
erenccs 10 the business Of the witness were
unworthy, but the evidence clearly show
/ ed that no dIShOnOr was attached to
, either Moulton or his associates

! jury had been directed to the relations OF
the plaintiff with Mrs Woodruff. 1t was
falsely predicted that Mrs. Woodruff had
been supplied by TiIton with information
for her article, putting out OF sight the
/ influence. which led to Mr.. Tilton's con-
ncction with Mrs. Woodhull. What
was there which should induce the jury to
condemn Tilton for that association? Mr..
Beach then spoke of the declaration made
| by Evarts that six thousand dollars of
the seven thousand paid 10y Bowen was
taken by Woodhull and Robinson to re,
/ imbursc them for their subscriptions t.
the GoLie,l Age The books of the firm
had been produced, and it was shown
that all ofthe seven thousand dollars was
used by Titon iOr his own purposes
The statement of the learned gentleman
WAS
A Bold MISstatcmenf,
made, he supposed, unconsciously. He
would gladly allow counsel for the de-
fense to refer to any evidence that could
