Resume Of rIllmsa Testimony.

Lexington, October 10s--The partisan
spirit which forms now, as it has formed
from the very inception of the Tillman
trial, so large an element in general con-
sideration OF the testimony that has
been given, hes at no time been more ap-
lpaIent than 1t has bSen In the varying
estimates which people in Lexington
place upon the results achieved In the
court house yesterday morning, writes
the News and Courier. The friends OF
Mr.. Tillma,,, and they are % majority of
the actual spectators, would tell you
that his presence on the witness stand
was triumph rather than an ordeal.
They think that he acquitted himself to
sse,ts sae Utmost desire Of hi9 and thoiE Own
His aceusers are equally as jubilant
and emphatic. In their estimation of it
Mr.. Bellenger was the victor. OF the
hour. The moro ardent friends OF the
prosecution believe that the cIoss-exami-
nation left the prisoners theory of his
Innocence with scarcely the semblance
of its former self. Ht
On the stand Mr.. Tillman was an able
advocate of his own cause, but in the
conflict with Mr.. Bellinger he did not
come OFT unscathed by any means. Wv
idly conscious of the import and signifi-
canoe OF every word he uttered the pris-
oner was not to be led readily into words
OF admissions of fact or motive that did
not we'll comport with the sequence of
Thought which ended in vindication, but
In time, in deed, in conduct the record
ranged wide field, and the man who
wrestled with him was as confident Of
ms ground as was he himself; and so
they stroye together, insistent, vigilant
and keenly conscious. of the stake for
which they fought. FL
