THE BURcH DIVORCE CAsE-The trial of this suit for
divorce which will undoubtedly Afford much food for
scandal in nearly all sections Of the country was set
down for Friday last at Naperve Ill., the venue having
been changed that place from Chicago at the request
Of counsel for defence.
Isaach II. Burch the plaintiff married to defend
ant niece of Hon. Erastus Corning, the 25th OF
May s4s and took up his residence 10 Chicago, where
he surrounded himself with every luxury that abundant
wealth could procure. In January last, rumors were
circulated Of improper intimacy on the part of de-
endant with several persons, conspicuous among whom
was David Stuart well known lawyer Of Chicago. Mr..
Burch charged his wife with ndety upon which Is
alleged she made confession, before notary, admit
ting the truth Of the charge. Upon this Mr. Burch CON-
menced proceedings for divorce, which Mrs. Bureh re-
sisted aud pleads not guilty. averrng that the con-
esson Wrung from her by coercion, and under the
solemn promise that it should not be used against her.
Also that plaintiff has been guilty and has treated her
unkindly and hArshly.
From the time Of commencing the suit until the pre-
sent both parties seem to have been employing their
time and money in procuring testimony which If true
will tend to present both in unenviabe light before
the community. Some Of the sidavits which have been
procured those Of persons Of notoriousy immoral
character and present allegations, which il sustained
will condemn either to infamy.
The defendant is the mother Of two children, one ten
years and eight months, and the other one year and
eight months of age.

TRENTON, N. j., Dec, 1l.-The Convention
to consider the dangers to the Union was large
y attended. Col. Wln. c. Alexander was
elected President Com. Stockton, chairman
of the committee on an address, presented al
address and resolutions, both Of which were
adopted amid much confusion. This address
declares tina. the North has committed great
wrongs and must retrace her steps by repeating
nil laws preventing the execution Of the
fugitive slave law, and allow citizens Of
Southern States to travel North with their p:o.
perty. All this the South has the clear right,
and looks not for indemnity for the past, but
for eoc,;rity for the future.
