RUNNING OUTLINE OF TUE GREAT
SUIT.
Summary of the PlaintifT? Case-What
He Tries to Prove, and What His Op?
ponent? Say-Orton or Tichborne,
Which ?
[Correspondence ofi he New York World.]
LONDON, November 24.
One of I he conrc papers recently had a car?
toon which fairly represents the hold that the
Tichborne romance has taken of Ihe English
public. John Bull was shown carr)lng the
'.O d Man of the Sea" on his shoulden, and
finding it as difficult to get nd of him a* ever
did the victim of whom Sinbad told to get free
irora their persecutor. Everything else, the
cartoon tells us, must give place to Tichborne.
We have already endured lt for so great a
length of time that I can hardly say how long it
has been or will continue to be the tonio of par?
amount attention. Judges, jurymen und coun?
sel have already made preparations to meet
v the possibility of their dying before its termi
% nation. It lasted forty riajs before the long
s vacation, and the plaintiff's case was only Just
begun. How long more lt will run neither
jurymen nor counsel can say; but as lt is cer?
tain that we will have to send yon constan; ly
fresh instalments ot lt, I have thought il weil
to send you a resume ot the case, so far ns it
has been made public, so that your old read?
ers may relresh their memories, and your new
circle maybe placed au courant with this cele
brated cause.
After much difficulty In securing a Jury, the
case of the claimant was stated by Sergeant
Ballantine, one ot the most eminent members
of the English bar, on May IL As will b-* re?
membered by these who have read Mr. Samuel
Warren's famous novel '?f "Ten Thousand a
Year," the mest Important cases frequently
have as defendant one who is not really so
bul only by a legal fiction. As in that famous
suit in which the client ot Gammon ,t Snapp
Mr. Tittlebat Titmouse, was the plaintiff, and
a tenant the nominal d?tendant in a suit for
ejectment, so in the Tichborne trial the de
femkni is a Colonel Lochington, tetianl of the
Tichborne estate in Hampshire. The real
d?tendants are the guardians of the infant
known as Slr Alfred Joseph Doughty Tieri
borne, the plaintiff claiming to be the uncle of
this child and the rig'.-.t to dispossess him of
ihe estates and title which are now held by
him, and which are of large importance. In
the general lon preceding Ute plaintiff there
were ihree brothers Tichborne. The eldest
died childless; the second, who had assumed,
in consideration of an Inheritance, thc name
of Doughty, left one daughter, Kate, aller
wards Ratcliffe, but no son; and the (hird
brother bad two sons-Sir Hoger, whom the
plaintiff claims io be. and Jame?, who died
young, leaving a posthumous child, Alfred,
who at present holds the esta'es and title.
Slr James Tichborne married a French lady,
daughter of an English gentleman and a
_ French woman. They had a very unhappy
7 life, making the lite of their child Rogrra
"nell upon earth." as he lelicitously describes
it. His edcuct'on was entrusted to a French?
man named Gnat Won, timi was grossly neg?
lected. When his family .eturned to Engl md
he was sent in 1845 to Stonyhurst, the greui
Catholic college, to schcol, but owing to vari?
ous causes, chief of which was lils want of
?^reparation and his gross ignorance of Eng?
ten, be made little or no progress. Examined
nt Sandhurst tor ihe army, he made a wretch?
ed examinai ion,-bul ihe examiners were not
particular, aud he was passed. He joined tue
Carabineers in 1819 at Portobello Bridge. In
1350 he viaiied Tichborne, and iii re met his
cousin, Kate Doughty, with whom he tell in
love, whom he wanted to marry, and with
whom, as he swears, iie waa mow tami.lar
than was right. Refused her hand by ber
lather, and unhappy in the army and I j
society, where his peculiarities made him ,
ridiculous, he determined to leave Eng
land. Before doing so, arter consulta?
tion with Mr. Hopkins, (un eminent solid- I ]
tor,) Mr. Slaughter and Mr. Gosford, (the
steward ol th - estate,) he made a will. He
then sold out of the army, und alter vi-iting ?
his father und mother lu Par s, he took pas ,
sage in "he Pau 1 ne for Va.paraiso, About .
this time he was s ight, with light hair and ,'
eyes, and by no means bud-looking. He was
about Ave leet eight an t a half luches high.
During his sojourn ia France lie fell on ids {
head, receiving a wound which lett a large ?
mark. While In the army he bad a serious ?
tainting ?t, fron which he recovered only j
when the surgeon bled him in the auk e
both ot which marks the present claimant
fiossesses. and medical evidence is forthcotn
ngthat he could not have Intllcied them
within any recent period. Before leaving he (
left In the hands of Mr. Gosford a sealed f
packet, the contents of which were known to ]
no one. The loi-disant lichborne dec ares ]
that he can tell tts contents if produced by
Gosford. Wheu the Pauline sailed from ,
Havre there was on board with Roger Tleh- ,
borne a body servant named Moore. The ,
vessel reached Valparaiso in June, 1859, und ,
Hie pair then proceeded to Suutlago, where (
Moore fell Ul, and Tichborne left him to go to
Valparaiso; from there he wont to Meiipllla,
and remained three weeks knocking tmoui
Tnen he returned to Valparaiso, fi om
which he sent home some b rds' loath
ers and skins. Having taken a coast in
voyage in the Pauline, he returned to Val
para?so and Santiugo, and then crossed i he
continent lo Rio Janeiro. He then look pas
sage In the Bella lor New York. Tue ship was
lost. The news having come to England, the
next of kin administered the will of his father i ?
and took possession of the estates, Slr It ger
having been treated as defunct. Instead ol
all the erew of the Bella having been lost, Slr i (
Roger states that two boals left the ship; one ,
ol these were lost; lrom the other he wns pick?
ed up by au American bark in a state border?
ing on insanity, and was brought to Melbourne,
in July. 1853-Just in the gold fever. In com
Dany with a Mr. Fosterton of the attorney-gen?
eral of Australia, he went io Boisdale, iu tripp- I !
land. Here he attracted Mr. Fosters alten- \,
Hon by his riding-an accomplishment of
which lie was master before leaving England.
He afterwards went to Diago, where he ac
cepted nunlal employment, calling himself
Thomas Castro, in memory of a companion at
Meiipllla. When at Drago he met Arthur Or
ton, whose name figures so often in this trial,
"a bulcher ol ihe t.\pe-the butcher type of
Wapping." This is the man whom the tiefen
daubs claim is now personating Slr Roger Tich?
borne. For a long time these men associated
together. One of the most important que
Hons the jury will have to decide is whether
Tom Castro was Arthur Orton or Tichborne.
In 18?I they visited Wagga-Wagga. lu 1805
Tichborne married.
While all believed in the less of the Bella,
his mother, Lady Felicltie Tichborne, hoped
against hope, and never ceased searching for
him. In 1865 Tichborne hoard ol' their efforts
through an attorney named Gibbs, who had
seen their advertisement, and suspected that
Castro and the missing baronet were one.
After awhile he wi ote to his mother from
Waggo-Wagea on January 17, 1860, his hun
previous letter having been dated in Anni,
1854. In his Australian letter he alluded to
two circumstances, known only to ber and to
himself. She. however, did riot accept this
statement ot his us proof, and wrote back to
him to that effect. He wrote In reply, glvin,
further particulars; amongst others, that, he
had been recognized by Bogle, a black servant
of the family; whereof it may be said that the
apparent theory of the defence was that Bogle
had posted Orton on all matteis concerning the
family. After going to America, Tichborne
returned to England in December, 18o6. He
then went to Pails to see lils mother, and
was immediately recognized by her. A suit
was thereupon commenced for the restora?
tion of the estate. It was resisted by the pos?
sessors, declaring that the claimant was not
the mao he pretended to be. Commissioners
were sent out by botli parties to South Ameri?
ca and Australia. The soi-disant Sir Roger
courted the strictest sciutiny, and for the pur?
pose of proving his Identity held intel views
with men of all ranks and positions who
knew him in early life. His lellow-otficers and
soldiers In thc Carabineerp, fellow-students
in the College or Stonyhurst, lils solicitor, Mr.
Hopkins, in fine, even his own mother, de?
clare that he ls Sir Roger Charles Tichborne.
The trial commenced on May 10, and alter the
examination of a number of witnesses, the.
claimant was pluced on the stand on May ito.
He was examined through four days, ami lor
twenty-three days was subjected to" the most
searching cross-examination that the solicitor
general of England, Sir J. D. Coleridge, was
cai able of conducting. He was I hen re-examin?
ed for two days, and on July 7 the court ad?
journed until November 7.

Nsw YORK, December 17.
It is thc turn of Hie church-going and 'miet
loving people to lose their tempers, for while
they shall be returning from service to their
homes to-day, the free-thinking Internation?
als will be marching np Filth avenue, with
drum? and fifes and music from instruments
of bra-. The day is chilly, with a light driz?
zle, and both processionists and procession
seers will leel uncomfortable. The religious
p rt of the commnnity.profess lo feel outraged
at the persistency of the gentlemen of the
Commune, and some of the newspapers are
protesting against what they call the "dese?
cration of the Sabbath." The law is on the
side of the Sabbatai Ians. The old act making
it unlawful lor public displays lu ihe streei.
other than religious, on this day, is still un?
repeated. Il has been rather honore i in the
breach than the observance, and a majority of
the police commissioners thought it belter
not to enforce it now, since so much excite?
ment prevails among the workingmen. Ills
to be boped that the Legislature ai Its next
session will luke the vexed matter of street
parades in hand, and settle it definitely.
What with the Red Republican letment, Hie
raging ol the small-pox, and the daily arrests
of ex-Boss Tweed, the city has lost none of Its
liveliness The m ?t disagreeable seusatlon is
the spread ot the small-pox. The disease has
been dreadful in Itseflects in Philadelphia, and
now New York and Its suburbs are to have a
like visit?t on. In Brooklyn small-pox has
been declared epidemic by the health authori?
ties. lt is in all the puollc institutions. A
semi-panic has set ia among tue citizens, and
the physicians atc having all they can do at
tending to calls tor vaccination. The authori?
ties oller to vaccinale the inhabitants free of
cuarto ut ihe hospitals. The disease Iq con?
fined to no particular locdiiy lhere or la th s
city, and all clas es cf people are attacked.
The cold weather assists insletid cf retards lu
The old con rove i sy among the doctors as
to wheiher vaccination 1B a certain preventa?
tive, is being reuewed. The heall h um hoi I -
ties hold strongly lo the atilt mail ve. There
me theorists, however, who ate i ashing to the
other extr. me, In the public prints, and are
denouncing ihe practice of vaccination as a
horrlb e outrage upon humanity. Tue unfor?
tunate citizen,' In dread ol' the Bmall-pox, ls
sorely puzzled what, to do amid the disagree?
ing counsels ul'the schools. No doubt the dis?
ease will prevail in ult the larger cities of the
country this winier. The means of dissemi?
nating lt here are easy, on accouut of the con?
stant, mixture of our people In the horse cars,
omnibuses and ferryboats. The authorities
are very arbittary in their treatment ol small?
pox patients. Whenever a case ls reported or
Uncovered, no maller where the nick pei son
ls lying, the van is sent for him and he is drag?
ged oui of his bed and home und conveyed io
tue public hospital. Perhaps lt Is n-cessary
for the safety rf the whole community that
this severity Hhould be practiced, bul lhere ls
ao doubi that many patten's die from ihe shock
jf the change, the Jolting through the street?,
md the absence ol'the tender care of relatives
u the hospltul. The lear ol t ils abduclion and
mpiNonmeut by the authorities adds to the
Honors of the stnail-pox. Perhups some day
joiumon sense will be consid?rai lu connec
ion with the treat meut Ol victims of this
ireadful scourge.
List night and this morning there was an
iXtraordlnary rehearsal on the stage of Nib
o*s Garden. Tue Black Crook ls to be repro
luced to-morrow night with ''unparalleled
splendor." Complimentary tickets were Issued
,o many eminent politicians and newspaper
nen to come to a private dress rehearsal last
ilght. In consequence ol the hitches lu ma
minery and scenery ami other drawbacks ln
jidebt lo a lirst night, the performance did
lot benin until eleven o'clock P. M. AU
ihrougu the stu ill hours of th s Sunday mo: li?
ng ui,tl almost until the church bells began io
lng tor the earlier Sabbath-schools, Ike sing
og and pirouetting was going on, musicians
*?? re fiddling, ballet masters und scene shitt
>rs swearing, and the Hlack Crook upnroprl
itely arraiigi'ig his Infernal inc inlattona. Over
Wo hundred people were constantly on the
ilagc, and the flats presented the curious
ipeeiacle of scores ol' ballets girls in pink and
lille Children in white curled up In sleep on
Iw floors awaiting their turns to be called.
The principal dancer in the ballet lo-mnrrow
light will be MMe Pieriua Sassi, who is an?
nounced as "the best dancer known In Eu
.ope." She 's said to be a native of Charles
on, Soutn Carolina, but to have been a resi
lent ol' Par s and London for several year
p-ist. Possibly Sassi is only a stage r ame
who ls the prodigy?
The Broadway slores are begining Io put
m their holiday attire. The windows are
irowded with everything that can tempt lld
present-giving community to buy. VarieUei
}l new and ingenious tojs are exhibited. One
of the most novel is a creeping baby. The
loll ls wound up with a spring, and when
placed on a table or smooth surface, propels
itself along, rising Us hands and feet, moving
Us head itum aide to Bide, and ac ling, lor all

who get this toy for Christmas will laney

son brings out some new and popular play
thing ol this kind, and the sales are so large
hat the luventors are generously rewarded
it is understood that the owner of the return
Dall-a common gutter percha ball with an
elastic string attached-has cleared over two
tmudrcd thousand dol?ais, and I hear of like
Fortunes made by other manufacturera of
