The oelebrated trial of TUtou i.
Beecher hai at last come to conclusion
baring reftnlted, as was generally Antici
pated, in ft disagreement of the jury.
The case was submitted to the jury on
Thursday, . I une 'Jl. On the following
Thursday they came into court and noti
fied Judge Ncilson that there wits no
pn 'liability of an agreement. The Jodge,
however, sent them hack to their room,
with instructions to disregard the Trice
and Loader Affidavits, which had been
shown to lie false. On the following
day, Friday, July 2, they again sent a
note to Jodge Ncilson, stating that it was
impossible to agree upon ft verdict,
whereupon they were summoned into
COnrt. What followed is thus described
by the Associated Proas dispatches i
At 11 :17 the jury tiled into OOUlt, look
ng fto if they had passed ft ftleepli M
ni'dit. In reply to the question : "Gen
tlemen of the jury, have you agreed upon
verdict f" Foreman Carpenter replied:
"We have not, your Honor. We regret
it very much that we find it impossible
to agree."
Judge Neilson stftted that he had
leanied by ft note from the jury, early
this morning, that in their opinion they
should be discharged, ftft they could not
agree, and some of their number were
Buffering in health. He experienced the
force of that application very strongly,
and had called them in now, at the BBTU
est moment, giving to counsel and oth
ers nn opportunity of being present.
As they were about to separate, he
Would like them to amy away kindly

their foreman, signed by eleven, and BO
ei impanied by another from one juror,
who thought an ngreement possible.
While he had perfect regard and OOUfi
denoe in the opinion of the eleven, and
the explainition of the foreman, he
thought something WBI due to the twelfth
juryman, His Honor had the same thing
on his mind yesterday at -1 o'clock, and
hft allowed Juryman Taylor to devote
his time to bring about an agreement,
so far as he could, lie learned from
the note that they were unable to agree,
and that the disagreement was founded
on their inability to decide upon the
weight of the testimony and the credi
bility of the witnesses, and it appeared
to his Honor and every person conver
sant with the oftse that it wax impossible
for him to help them by any suggestions.
Not van In his oharge oonld he And a
means of helping them 00 that point.
The weight Of the testimony rested with
the jury. It was for them to say what
witnesses they oonld believe and what
witnesses they could not. The cunt
had no right to Interfere. He was glad
to be BBS mod that the disagreement did
not arias from any want of attention on
his part, and Qod knew that there were
some points 00 which he could do noth
ing.
The jury was then discharged, and
filed out of court. Mrs. Beecher went
to the railing and shook hands with each
juryman ftft DS passed Thus ended the
great Tilt in Beecher scandal suit.
The jury at one time were seven for
0 viction aud live f or acquittal, but at
the close stood nine to three for l.eecher.
It is rumored that TUton will move
for ft new trial and a change of venue.
It is also intimated that he will endeavor
to procure the indictment of Own Tracy
fot perjury.
Mr. Beecher regards the result of the
trial as a perfect vindication.

The victory of the American marks
men was hailtvl with tieniendous enthu
siasm. HONOits to Tin: 1010118.
A most" enthusiastic ovation was given
to the American team, on their return
from DoUymonnt. A grand banquet in
their honor was given by the Lord
Mayor of Dublin at the Mansion House.
A large number of difttingniahed
ffuefttft, including the Lord Mayors of
London and York, were present.
The Irish ritlemen admit the superior
ity of tin- Americans throughout the
match, and acknowledged that their vic
tory was fairly won. The American team
used breach-loaders ; the Irish team ft
used Rigby'i muzzle loaders.
At thft dose of the tiling at nine hun
dred yards the defeat ol the Irish was
acknowledged, and luncheon WBft taken
iu chagrin and gloom. There was out
spoken dissatisfaction and symptoms of
diftorgftniafttion among the Irish. The
crowd, which manifested intense anxiety
ftS to the result, had now grown to about
80,000. Every Irish bulkreye was
cheered and a disturbance was becomimr
imminent. The olice were powerless,
ftnd lr. Hamilton addroasod the crowd.
Standing in close shooting position the
Americana refused to proceed with the
tiring until order should be restored.
Kvery gentleman on the ground now be

hustling, and the disorder can hardly
be exaggerated. A delay of '.)' minutes
resulted, whan partial order was re

the Irish side of the ground was trenien

producing conatt rnation. Hamilton
scored I succession of threes, and blamed
the crowd for his lack of success. Ev rv-
body m Died to be in bad semper. The
ropes were broken by the Irish, m ar the
oloae, Fulton and Bodine not yet bsv-
ins finished. Fulton missed tketarffei
through the disorder. The crowd, che t
1 ing, rushed across the ground. OSUfti B
great oonfnsion, Bodine Quietly took
his position for the last shot and the
crowd ranged itself along the line of lire,
leaving an opening toward the tar
gets, but only wide enough to expose
two of the targets to the view of the nrer.
All control had been lost over them, but
Jlodine was still and silent. A puff of
suioke and a crack of his rille was heard,
and his bullet flattened in tlw bulll eye.
A tremendous cheer was given for the
Americans by the crowd en masse. The
police stood firm around the teams, with
the OTOwd on tile outside standing sturdy
and ill-humored, but not toward the
Americans.
Mai. Leech addressed the AJnerioBlM
and the surrounding mass, and declared
himself beaten, and the Americana the
first shots in t'..e universe. He then
called for cheers lot OoL Gildersleev
