ROCHESTER, Aug. 20 The Union, in an ar

favor of the nomination of Chief Justice
Church, and says:
IF he were to intimate willingness to ac-
cept there is no doubt he would receive unan-
imous nomination by reclamation from the
convention But many of his friends think he
ought not at present be taken from the bench
OF the Court of Appeals, where as Chief cudge
he presdes with dignity and distinguished
ability that rank him among the foremost
jursts in the land, and he declines in the most
positive terms. He must, therefore, be re-
garded as not in the list from which the choice
is to be made
