The BurdeU Murder Trifcla.
Theao trials commenced before the New York
Court of Oyer and Terminer, Judge Davis presiding,
Monday Inst. The case of Mrs. Cunningham
was first taken up, when her counsel,
Mr. Clinton, waived the reading of the indict<
isent, plead "not guilty," and announced his
client ready for trial. The remainder of the
day was spent in cmpannelling a jury. The
Eveuing Post of that city gives the following
account of the appearance of the accused :
Mrs. Cunningham and her two daughters,
Helen and Augusta, were seated behind the
railing on the right hand of the judge. They
were richly but plainly dressed in mourning
garb. Mrs. Cunningham wore a black silk. All
the three ladies wore impenetrable brown veils,
toliich were never for a moment removed, and
sat immovable with a downcast air. A lady
Friend of the family sat with them.
John J. Eckel- occiinUil ? ?.'?k witliin 4lt?
behind the counsel, lie is genteelly dreesed in
a plain black suit and blaek cravat, nnd wears
a ricli set of sbirt studs. On the little fingor
bf his left hand gleams a valuable ring. His
beard nnd iflustache are full nnd dark, and
J?e wears a handsome brown wig or toupee.
He converses freely nud cheerfully with his
bounscl and other friends arouud him, and apparently
regards the whole proceedings with
the indifference of one conscious of his iuuo>
fcence.
His long imprisonment does not appear to
Iiave worn upon him, and no one looking upon
his placid and rather prepossessing features,
nnd mild hazel eye, can well imagine him to
have been guilty of the terrible murder with
which he stands clmrged. His stature is rather
light, and his features arc smaller and more
delicately formed than Was represented in the
engravings.
Mrs. Cunniugham, on removing her black
Veil, disclosed it face very pale, but resolute, in
ti ai. _ r- +
-vu incic nut iiic imuicst poBSIlMe
tinge of pink, or slight carnation on hcrchcek,
which hail a somewhat artificial look. Her
countcnance bore an expression of deep sadnesa,
mingled with half-concealed anxiety, which
might be attributed to care for her children.
Sho spoke a few words in a low, calin tone to
her counsel, and occasionally cost a furtive
.glance upon persons around her.
TlIK SOKTIIEP.N pRKSBYTKRIAN REVIKW. E. II.
Dritton Fsq., has just issued the April number
of tlits able and excellent Quarterly.?It is edited
by an association of Ministers in this city,
and has not reached its Tenth volume.
No similar work in our country is superior to
it, whether wc regard its literary merit or the
intrinsic interest and excellence of the matter it
contains. We have enjoyed the privilege of
rendingthis work from its origin to the present
time, ana wo can connnently say, that it hns
uniformly been both able and interesting. The
articles in the number before us are.
1. Constitution of the Presbyterian Church,
Rev. Samuel It. B&ird.
2. Christian Mission and African Colonization,
Hjv Rev. J. B. Adgcr, I). D.
8. The Martyrs of Scotland and Sir Walter
"Scott, by ilobn II. Bocock.
4. Testimony of the Ancient Jews to the
Trinity, In* Rev Tbcmas Smyth, D. D.
5. Historical Skctcli of Systems of Theology,

6. Idolatry, by Wm. A. Scott, D. D.
7. Wigfall's Sermon upon Duelling, by Rev.

8. Critical Notices.
We have merely time and space to add, that
the number before us is printed in the usual excellent
6tyle of Mr. Britton?Terms, Three Dollars
per. nnn. payable in advance. We regret, 1
however, to Icurn, that as in the enso of the
Southern Quarterly Review, there are many delinquent
subscribers. This should not ln?_
IEixCtion toCongkf.ss.?The clectric telegraph
announces the election of Gen. Milledge L.
Bonharn (now States Solicitor) to Congress from
&dgcfield, Abbeville, Newberry nnd Laurens
IFJistriets, to supply the vacancy caused by the
death of the lamented Brooks. His majority
over Charles 1\ Sullivan, Esq., his competitor,
is sixteen hundred votes. Gen Bonham is a gentleman
of high character and great intelligence,
and lawyer of eminence. He graduated, in the
tiouth Carolina College, in the 3-ear 1834, carrying
off the second honor of his class, the first
8ionor having been awarded to Mr. Sullivan bis
competitor in the Congressionul canvass. ,
The election of Gen. Bonham will crente a
vacancy in the State Solicitorship ofthc Middle
Circuit. Among the candidates for the post, 1
already in the field, are William A. Owens and
Winchester Graham, Esqs., of Barnwell Dis- 1
t.rict, and Josiah B. l'orry, Esq., of NValterborough.
Their number, if not their name, will
oon be legion, we suppose. The election lies
