THE B;RCSr DIVORCEXASE.
This case which has been on trial aj,'
Napiersville, Illinois, for tho last two !
weeks, Las attracted ooiisiiierablc atten

and Illinois. Mr. Hindi is a wealthy
Hanker in Chfc.igo, and, ivc believe a strict
.member of tho Presbyterian church. The
parties have been m.trrietl about 1") years,
and are tho parents nf four children, the
j'Ot'iigo.st alottt three years of -t:o. In
IS')?, Mr. 1 lurch come to tho conclusion
that his wile was too intimate with a Mr.
Stewart, of Chicago; and so informed her.
She li of. 'ever clainrng to t.e innocent of
any such reproach. This, however, u the
pretext ii: this trial for a divorce.
The trial of this case is another dem-,
oustratioo. of scui.fe, m a teri l.iih str.te
of relincment and civilization, lielew we
publish two letters which were given in
evidence at the trial, which te'l a story of
their own. YVhat the tesult of the trial
will be, is hard to determine at this stage
