Some four or five sets Of Union resolutions have

part of the Northern States.
Both branches of the Legislature have passed an
act transferring Sl50,0J0 from the swamp land
fund to the general fund, as to place the latter
fund in condition to pay salaries and other Legis
lative expenses. The act provides for returning
the money on the I'd Of November next.
An exciting and acrimonious debate has taken
place in the Assembly over resolutions to expunge
from the legislative rec.rd the vote of censure OF

THE GUaNEY DIVORCE CAsE.-Iu the Court of
Divorce yesterday, the Solicftor-General appeared
for Mr.. Carney, NJ. p. for Kings Lynn, who sought
dissolution of his marriage on the ground of his
wife,s adultery with William Taylor, her footman.
The lady, Mrs. Jane Gurney, was the daughter of
Mr.. Richard Hanbury Gnrney, and was cousin to
her husband. The marriagetook place in the year
l94G with tic full consent and appreciation Of both
families. The age of Mr. Gurney at that time was
about twenty.siX, and tho respondent about ten
years younger. There were two children of the
marriage still living. Both of Mrs. Gurney's pa
rents were dead and at the decease of her mother
in 1857 she became entitled to a very considerable
fortune in her own right, and for her life. The
parties had q country house called rattOn Hall,
near Norwich, and house ia kenaington Gardens,
where Mr.. Gurney, whose parliamentary duties
necessarily required his attendance in town. re-
sided dnriag the session. The correspondent, VIM.
Taylor had been fOotnan in the employ of the
petitioner. Ho was the son Of small farmer in
Norfolk, and for his station had received fair
education. Down to the month of November,
1853, Mr. and Mrs. Gurney lived very happily TO-
gether; but certain matters then came to the
knowledge of the petitioner. which caused him to
dismiss Taylor. On the 18th of December the
family arrived in town from Tatton, and the fol-
lowing day it was found that Mrs. Quincy had
eloped, leaving behind the following note:
