THE BANKS, Thd bills of all the Illinois banks, not rejected a month ortwo ego were taken by the banks as It seems the telegraph did not give the exact stale of. facts. For particulars seemohey article on the fonrth page. THE CONFEBENCE. It seems that the Peace Conference have agreed upon a basis of settlement, but what it is the telegraph does not advise ns.

The propositions from (hat body were referred the Senate, yesterday, to a select Committee, with instructions to report at one o'clock to-day. Their. character may ho judged of by the ayes and noes taken upon the motion to refer, for which see telegraph dispatches the fourth pure. UNFOLDED. Cur readers will remember that when Mr.

Lincoln was passing through Indiana, an attempt tp throw his train off the track was discovered just in rime to prevent consequences fatal to the whole party. We printed an account of the affair at the I ime; but nobody seemed to believe that there was any special desire to put the President to death, in the nefarious act whidh was related. But that was not the only tifort made to get rid'of the man in a summary way. We have, in addition to the Baltimore conspiracy, of which Gen. Scott, Mr.

Seward and Mr. Inirne were informed, the following, which conics to us in the Syracuse Journal of Saturday hare been informed by gentlemen connected with the party of Mr. Lincoln since he left hor.io for Washington, thatlhcre were several attempts to t-ke bii dfe made daring the journey through Indiana and Ohio. The one which threatened u.e most tenons consequences took place on the Presi3cxnial train leaving Cincinnati, when a grenade of the rju-t destructive character was discovered la the car orcupicd by Mr. Lincoln, family pe-tunai friends.

It found in a carpet o.ig, which had bsen deposited in a seat of the car by torn? uakoivnprrtoa. Attention was drawn to from the fact no fcoggagewas allowed in thecare. Ou examination, the gicimdc concealed in the carpet has was discovered to Ignited, and so arranged wit in fifteen minutes it would have exploded with a force sufficient to have demolished car and destroyed the lives of all in Of course, the iniernal machine was speedilv rcjuorcdaadpropeilydisposed Couple these tilings with the threatening cud admonitoiy letters, hundreds of wliich Hr. Lincoln has received since November, and all of which foretold an attempt upon his life, and no sane man can doubt that a deliberate plot has been' formed io effect his assassination, and that-the murderers were foiled by the hurried journey from Harrisburg -made' by General advice. PROPOSITION.

The telegraph makes reference to the proposition of Mr. Franklin, of Pennsylvania, which was voted down in the Peace Conference yesterday. TVe copy if below, remarking that it not only establishes slavery, bat it makes the present Slave Code and the law of peonage in New irrcpcalablo by any authority whatever. Tct it failed to secure the approbation of the South. In the eye of the it? fatal defect was, unquestionably the lack of a clause extending slaveiy over all territory hereafter to be acquired.

Io all tbo present territory of the United States north of the parallel of degrees, thirty minutes of north latitude, involuntary servitude, except In punishment of crime. Is prohibited. In all the present territory south of that line the etfttu- of pereou- held to service or labor as it m-w exists shall not be changed. Nor shah any law be pissed by Congress or the territorial legislature tn nlnd-ir or prevent the taking of such persons from any of the States of this Union to said territory, nor to rights arising said relation. But the eimc -hall bo subject to judicial cognizance iu the Federal Courts according to the course of the common When any territory north or south of said line, with such boundary as Congress prescribe, shall contain a population equal to that required for a member of Congress, it shall.

If its firm of government be republican, be admitted into the Galon on an equal footing with the original States, with or without involuntary servitude, as the Constitution of such State may When will the people understand that the South does not demand concession only, but abject humiliation from the North A BRACE OP FALSEHOODS. The statement contained in the Chicago Post ol yesterday, that this journal had a special reporter at the Republican Convention cf the Fourth Congressional District, held at Peoria on the 23d inst, and that he telegraphed a false and distorted account of its proceedings to the Tribune, is destitute of truth as is its other statement that was the object of the convention, as announced by the callers of it, to request to THc Tribune had no special repr at the Convention; it neither receiver nor published any special dispatches relative to its action; nor was any reference made to Kellogg or to an intention lo ask him to resign, in the call for the Convention. The same report of the action of the Convention which was published 3n this journal on the morning of 23d inst, was published also in the Port of that for word and letter for letter. The-entire story of the Post relative to this journal having any connection whatever with the Convention or with the calling of it, as well as of the spirit which animated that body, is a wilful and deliberate falsehood, invented for the sole purpose of misleading the public and bolstering up a man who has proved recreant to the principles and pledges upon which he was elected toofficc. The Convention was called by the regular Congressional Committee; it was fully delegates being present; the convention of each county in the district repudiated and unqualifiedly condemned the course of Kellogg, and some ot them passed resolutions requesting him to resign; and the District Convention unanimously adopted the following resolution: Eesoloed, That we enter our solemn protest agdlure the resolutions offered by our Representative in to amend the Federal Constitution.

believing them to be subversive of our plighted faith, oar honor, and the spirit of our Institutions; and wc earnestly urge him to an unfaltering support of Republican principles as enunciated iu the Chicago Platform. Among all the delegates there assembled, including those from his own county (Fulton), not one voice was raised in opposition to this resolution. And yet, because a proposition to amend it by lequesling Mr. Kellogg to resign, was lost by a vote of 79 to BS, the Post declares the action of the convention to have been a Kellogg triumphl Does it suppose that Kellogg would like a repetition of the triumph? With this declaration of the Republicans of the fourth District against his course, with the feet that he is condemned by eveiy Republican journal in Ins district, and that he is commended only by such Democratic papers as the St. Louis Republican, the Chicago Times, Post it not much more likely that he would have been better satisfied had the been entirely omitted?

Hicks of Maryland also called and. held a protracted consultation with him, as rumor says, on a Cabinet place, but more likely on the suite of the country. The tion made to the rule prohibiting admission to.strangers was in the case of a number ot Virginia gentlemen who called, and were at once admitted to an interview. They afterwards expressed themselves much pleased with, the President elect. A carriage from citizens New York, intended as a present to Mr.

The Senate to-day passed bills for organising the Territories of Nevada and Dacotah, and also concurred in the House amendment of the Colora bill, thus placing three Territories in a lair way for a government. Grow, the Chairman of the Territorial Committee of the House, will press these bills to an early vote. There is one proviso in all these Territorial provides that the of a Territory shall enact no laws calculated to impair vested rights in property of all kinds.

This effectually kills the doctrine of Popular Sovereignty. The Army bill, considered in the Senate today, contains bat few changes from the usual bills of this character. For the manufacture of arms at armories, three hundred and sixty thousand dollars are appropriated for Springfield armory, sixty thousand dollars; for Ferry armory, sixty-four thousand dollars. Appropriations are also made for all the Northern inland forts, and for Fort Calhoun, Taylor and Jefferson, on Southern coasts. PROBABILITY OF EXTEA SESSION DdIMSHIICG.

the Detroit Tribune, In 1856, Moore, Foote Co. had shipped to them from New York a quantity of goods, re- i reeled to them at Detroit. The goods were 1 placed on board the propeller M. B. Spank: ing.of the American Transportation Compai-y, at Buffalo.

While Ihe propeller lay at dock, she took fire, and the goods were tie-- 1 sai troyed. Moore, Foot Co. brought suit I the Wayne Circuit against the Tramsportatb---. iLf Company for the value of the goods, and re- for covered a verdict of $3,000. The cause po then taken by the Transportation Company 1 a'S the Supreme Court of Michigan, where'll' op Company insisted that the act of Cor grees i March 3d, 1851, entitled act to limit tc on liability of ship owners, and for other pur- which exempts ship owners fri-M of liability from loss by not resulting.froi i ia fraud or neglect, applied In this case.

Tt -i on ibe that 1110 insaid act, excepting all vessels engaged i f.u rivers or inland navigation, from the operatic of the act, covered this case, on the grout-1 ha i that the navigation of the lakes is inland nnv-i Igation, and that all navigation is snch wfcif 5 Tc is not npon the ocean. The Supreme he Michigan, however, held the contrary, and mi versed the judgment below. The plaintiff Bti i Moore, Foote removed the case to t' Supreme Court of the United States, upon tl eff ground that the construction of an act of Cc-: gress was involved. The case was argued i January lasf and the judgment of the Snprcu. i TI Court of Michigan was sustained, Nelson, Ju 1 tlce, delivering the opinion February i Walker Russell of Detroit, attorneys plaintiffs, and Towle, Hunt Newberry of Do mi troit, and Geo.

B. Hibbard of Buffalo for tl tei defendants. The case was argued before the th Supreme Court of Washington, by C. I. Wall- TL er end G.

B. Hibbard. At the close of the tn gument, Mr. Chief Justice Taney rcxusrki-i gi' to the counsel, that it was the most imports: as and Interesting case that had come before Ui 1 li'i Court for many years. The effect of this decision is a radical change dii inthelaw concerning common carriers.

Cere- tb mon carriers have been held from the eariici c.i times In England, os insurers of the proper. 7 wi entrusted to them. The act of Parliament, fr Geo. IIL, provided that carriers should not b3 1 pa liable for loss by fire, resulting from accident and the act of Congress of 1851 was substan- ca tially copied from The English act wt dently related only to the of co npon the passage of the American act, ti most serious and difficult question presented lu: itself, whether the lakes are npon an cqir.l lit footing with the ocean, within the intent are! tei language of the act This question bos been decided in different ways by different court but has now been set at rest by the above d-v re cision. That decision, although a hardship the plaintiffs, will be hailed with joy by 2 whole lake interests, and, had the declsit 1 ICi been the other way, the result would nndoubr- hii edly have been, an amendment of the act, lo accomplish the same result, which has ncr-7 been effected by the decision.

A Peace Measure in whlcli ItHchlgari Is Interested. the Grand Bapids A project has been started in Illinois, fir tr compelling peace between the South and 0 sli Northwest, at least, in which this State, re, dally, next to Illinois, has a large po This project is neither more nor less than tun ing the trade, if not the waters, of the Misti sippl River up stream, and compelling it reflow through Illinois and Michigan on its to the seaboard. To accomplish this, it is preposed to enlarge the Illinois Canal, 1 Chicago with the Mississippi River, through the Fox River Improvement, so that the I are- er, cst class of steamers plying on the Mississippi can land their cargoes of cotton, tobacco, nc a and sugar directly on the wharves of icago, 1 without transhipment between Memphis and th the latter place. The effect of the successful completion of Q1 this magnificent project is apparent at a bl glance. As New and New England arc the markets for Southern produce in country, it is safe to say that all the cotton to Arkansas, Northern Mississippi and Tennessee, half the sugar of Louisiana, the tobacco of gt Kentucky and Tennessee, with the eventual jirodnce ol Northern Texas and the adjacent ICt 1 territories, wonld bo compelled, by the sup-'- da rior cheapness, speed, safety and facility of 6U this route, to pay tribute to Illinois and Izan in passing.

Incidentally, too, Wisconsin, lowa, Indiana, Ohio and Minnesota would be ch largely benefitted by tide of conuncrco 1 setting northward. There could be commerce between all the Grand River Valh tit and the great Mississippi Valley, with only ab 1 one transhipment outside of this State, and 1 our lumber, fnrniiure. Iron, copper, sale, Yr wheat, pork and plaster, could be exchanged directly for southern gold and southern co. rice, sugar or cotton. a Then, In case of any future and more fer- midable rebellion, let Louisiana secede, if she di I could; and all the States North and West of i her would be linked to the loyal Northwest with a chain no less strong and enduring than that of interest Their prosperity, their very a 3 life, wonld he so hound up with ours, and ours ti with them, that no possible could tear ns asunder.

To he sure, Chicago wonld overgrow Its a present large proportions and overshadow, for a time at least, every city of our own or Jacent States. Bat Detroit would also grow; te and, while it could never hope to overtake ta Chicago, it wonld greatly increase its present 1 proportions, and be second only to Its Illinois rival cl The influence npon all that part of Michigan bordering upon lake Michigan wonld be im- mense. Onr great wilderness would become, as if by magic, the seat of "thriving villagts, each with its peculiar manufacturing interest, either in wood or ore, for the. State of- 1 the West would all be tributary to us in these 0: 0 respects; and only be onr rivals in the south- em markets la the provisions. if As amatter of national concern, the measure can bo made of Almost hs much importance as Hie great Pacific Railroad.

We believe, -mth Senator Seward, that the material bonds 5. of commerce, railroads, especially -1 navigable nvera and canals, connecting different sections, are more reliable and certain to A hold the Union together than all the constilu- at -i tions It is posaiblefor men to write. 1 Nor would such a national work be without 7 its importance for military purposes. As a work of strategetic.lmportance, in the way of- forever conserving the government and pre- venting rebellion, it would be vastly more powerful and effective than- the most costly and formidable chain of Torts and strongholds It is possible to construct. We hope the L- friends of wiU Belzetheadvim- 7 tage of the present time.

It was radical, revolu-j tionary, patriotic, and everything by turns He was loudly cheered at different points. The following resolutions were then read: Whereas, Wc believe in that sacred emblem of all men arc created equal, and are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among which arc life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; and Whereas, We firmly believe that resistance to tyrants obedience to God: therefore, Resolved, That we follv justify the course pursued by the slave Anderson, in taking the life 'of bis pursuer while defending own liberty, and we look upon him as a hero and a true Amer- lean. i Resolved, That to England, proud, monorchiol England, belongs the highest praise, for she has not only proved an asylum for the flying fucitlve, hut she has given to man his birthright, freedom to the slave, rights to the wronged; and declared that no slave could, under the Ashburton treaty, he delivered up. unless the offence he was charged with was murder by the law of England." Resolved, That we cordially recommend to our people the- noble example set them by our brother John Anderson, and that we arc now satisfied that oar rights arc in our own bands, and that the public opinion of our white brethren of the Northern will uphold and justify our people in practically enforcing the doctrine proclaimed by Patrick Liberty or death.

Resolved, That in this man Anderson we see the elements of usefulness; that by perseverance and thorough application he. may become an able de-- finder of human rights; therefore, we recommend uim to educate it is a basis upon which he must cither stand or fall; Therefore, Resolved, That the results arrived at in this cause are vastly encouraging to us as a That the conduct of John Anderson in taking the life of Diggs, his not only lawful and right, but brave and heroic, and entitles him to a high position in the minds and affections Oi every, true lover of his country. Resolved, That with a'full view of the consequences that may follow, we now declare our teralile decermihation -to oppose -and resist the' Fugitive Slave Act, not only on account of itswicked and barbarous cbaracier.but because we are satisfied that no man can obey thallaw without 'violulmj the Constitution of bis country and the law of God. are therefore determined that no fugitive slave shall taken from Chicago Into shivery, if it is In our power to prevent it.

And we promise them that we will be a united people in doing anything that may be necessary to the successful termination of these cases.

Pending the resolutions, Chancellor L.Jenks made a speech. He commenced by giving a very full and correct report of the Anderson casie, from the time of the birth of the slave to the present, which was listened to with marked attention, but interrupted by occasional bursts of applause.

Mr. Jenka then followed with a series of sentiments giving several reasons why the whole people have cause for rejoicing In the' torn the Anderson afiair had token, and closed with an eloquent peroraration, appealing to the sympathies of his hearers.
