Tho Conreations. The Democratic Congressional Convention for this district will meet in this place on the 17th inst. Wo suppose . that all the opposition that will be run gainst the Democratic nominee was de- ' ignited by the Convention which met t Bradford on the 2nd inst. We have no doubt but Schuyler Colfax is the lucky man. Well it's a race in which we expect to feel some little interest, in order to get reinstated in Society. When ell the nominations are made, we expect to hoist our Banner, and to honestly and faithfully battle under its-folds, we will most cordially invite those who agise with us, and all others who pos- j test sufficient liberality to allow their honest opponents a place under the sun, j we will most gladly maintain friendly intercourse. the most A Prohibitory Lav. As a reasonable and reliable position, we heretofore unequivocally denied that it was the wish of the Whigs who favored the enactment of a prohibitory law, to defeat or promote the success of either political party. We have urged that in their nominations each party could place in the field a good and reliable Temperance man, and in the success of either, a prohibitory law was sure of success. Our readers remember this. But what do recent developments prove? All the deception we have been instrumental in palming off on honest and unsuspecting Democrats, was not with a view to deceive them. Other whigs and Whig presses urged the same argument. But since a new hobby has been stabled, and those Democratic Tern perance men have ben asked not only to forsake party ties for the sake of a prohibitory raw, but to release one of the main planks of their Democratic platform, and oppose popular sovreignty in the Territories, and relinquish their attachment to a perpetuity of the Union, we no longer urge our former position, yet we still favor a prohibitory law. We look upon the temperance refoam as one of the main arteries of good and wholesome society. Its advocates sho'u labor in Unison aiid in the bonds of the most liberal fraternity. If any of them should happen to differ with their neighbors upon tho subject of a National Bank, a Tariff, or Territorial organizations, no 6uch mean and contemptible steps should betaken as to declare them unwrthy of a place in society, Kttp it MoYing. Let the factions combine together, and continue to lend the abolitionists succour, and pcrl sps something will be accomplished after a while, j that will burn the faces of tnose who may be lugged into the support of their fanatical doctrines. The Troy Whig, in speaking of Frrd. Douglass, and advocating his claims as a a candidate for Congress, says: 'He is a remarkable specimen of his race, and were he white would be a man ef mark. Some pretend to believe that there is no reality in Fred's being an aspirant for Congressional favor, because they don't happen to be his immediate constituents and see and know the ftct for themselves; hut keep the thing moving and yield a little now, and a little more, and still a little more after . while, and the glorious achievement may yet astonish some of our race. Another Step. In the abolition Legislature of Connecticut at its late session, after passing resolutions aga'nst the Nebraska bill, and before its adjournment, the House by a Tot of 116 to 78 pA-ed a resolution to amend the Stale Constitution so as to allow negroes to vote on the same terms as white men. Also (by 106 to 60,) an amendment prohibiting any person from voting who cannot read These amendments lie over until the next Legislature for confirmation or rejection. A cotemporary is probably not very much raistaken, when he says: 'This is one of the States which are held up to the people of Indiana as mod els which they should follow. Negroes ar to be allowed to vote, while that light is to be taken from the white man -whose misfortune it was, perhaps, in his youth, to live ten or twenty miles from a school bouse, and did not have an op portunity of learning to read.' Still Another Step. Continue to encourage, them. Teach them the blessings of that liberty they are not nor ner;t rvill ba capable of appreciating, anä the resalts are fast developing themselves. Philadelphia, J.ily 25. A negro seduced the daughter of his master at Laurel, Delaware. A couple of officers endeavored to arrest him. He stabbed one and mortally wounded the other, and then escaped. Yes! abolish slavery set the blacks at liberty amongst us, give them the privilsa of voting whilst you disfranchise the poot white man because his poverty prevented hit being erlucitsd, tnd pan. der to theii ignorant pride by placing

them before the people as candidates for Congress, and if a tame submission on our part to amalgamation is refused, the seduction of our wires and daughters promises to be the inevitable result. Yet those who oppose the abolition of slavery without providing the means of colonization, are denounced as unfit for a place in society. Shame!

Who SnsfaillS ThPm! We hear that quite a number of the 24 who composed that People's Convention at the Court House in this place on the 8ih July 1854, now disapprove and condemn their own acts We are told that the 2d and 3d resolutions both allude to Congressmen alone. The first says 'every Northern man who supported,' &c, whilst the other says 'Northern men who voted,' kc. Is there any necessity of any further explanation titan the resolutions ihemsehes carry upon their face? Democrats, and others ' you who beliere in the doctrine of non interference with slavery, and -that of popular sovereignty in the Territories, ! whilst exercising the civil and prudent citizen's right, are you willing to tamely submit to 6uch contemptible stuff as the resolutions contain, and allow 24 persons to shoulder the responsibility upon 'THE CITIZENS of Marthall county?' Sit down and calmly mike up your verdicts. Below. we copy the resolutions alluded to for your future reference: Resolved, That every Northern man who supported the repeal of the Missouri Compromise in Congress, is unworthy in future, of any honorable position in society, and we here pledge ouelves that we will never abate our efforts to carry out the spirit of this resolution. Resolved, That all those Northern men who voted for the Kansas and Nebraska bill, have immortalized their names in the annals of infamy, aud that their names will forma cabinet of political putrifaction for the execration of future generations. Those of the 24 which did not carefully look into the tenure and purport of the resolutions, say they now disapprove them. They possess the liberality to allow their neighbors and friends to differ with them in political sentiment, and still breathe free air; whilst thot3 so bitterly denounced, loathe and dopise ! the fanatics, who palm off such stuff as j the real sentiment of 'At citizens of 1 Jlart-hall county.' J But suppose we waive the advantage afforded us by the ridiculous position in : which their resolutions have placed them, and admit for of the matter the sake of another view of the matter, tlut they were intended ' 7 .. . . .. f . .... 1. 1 only to denounce Congressmen. Is " ; public agent who does w hat he bellet es . to be right, more censurable than those who sustain him in his acts? There is no difference between the principal aud his agent n this case. If there is any. the principal is the most censurable. Therefore the odious sentiments of the contemptible resolutions bear upon all who favor the organization of Nebraska Territory upon the principles of Non intervention and popular sovreignty. Same few Whigs tell us that they do not think it bartering any part of thrir political creed to subscribe to such doc- j trines. If this is true, we never knew anything ibout the creed of that party. The citizens of Marshall county pledged to carry out the spirit of the resolution! Reader, are you willing to say that the name of the Hon. N. Eddy, j our Repre sentative in Congress, shall form any part of a 'cabinet of political putrifaction for the execration of future generations,' simply because he did what he thought j was right as your Representative in Con cress.' Admit that he was wronz it is the citizen's privilege to say so and op pose him in his wrong, but it is not the j duty nor is it the prhilrge of 21 people in the name of the citizens of Marshall county, to consign him and his good name to such a post of degredation aud infamy. Ägilalors. We have been told by persons who continue to agitate the public mi ml In Ulinn to Uum thai nft, l.-.l.i a a a iviunvii v tu' av o ly exist, that they should continue to agi tate, although a DISSOLUTION OF THE UNION should result fromW. Those persons must seek some other channel through which to promulgate such doctrines, besides the columns of our paper. We don't like all the laws that are at present in force, but whilst we have the right to labor for their amendment and al. teration, we don't claim the right to tear the Union from under the feet of those who do like them, thereby depriving them as well as ourselves of all power to make, change or amend the laws that are to control us. But, Mr. Agitator, for your gratification, here's a proposition: Let us resolve that the American Union is a humbug' that Columbus was a humbug' gc that Gen. Washington was the humbuged, and that wa'll all quit, and prodigal like, go back home to mamma. We didn't put the Union together, and if it is a spoiled job and a total failure, let the responsibility rest upon the heads of those old blockheads Tom Jefferson, Geo. Washington, and the rest of them. Come, let's go. Miss Fillmore, only daughter of Expresident Fillmore, died of cholera, at Aurora, N. Y. on the 36th July.

A summary of ili nets would doubtless be interesting to OUT reader, but as jet wo ore not in posession of them. Soino weeks sinco we expressed our fears in relation to the fate of the Homestead bill, since that time, tho bill which passed the House some month or two einco and of which wo gave the leading feature, met with sufficient Opposition in th.-- Senate to cripple its progress, and it was so altered and amended by that body, tlint its friends in the Ilou'e did'nt know it when it returnod to them for their concurrence. How it wns finnlly disposed of, wo are unable to say this week.

ProdofC Markets. Some of our readers grumble becauso wo do not give more full accounts of tho distant markets. When there is any material change in the prices we have endeavored to keep tliem advised, but there iä no earthly use in continuing tho tume fgvres (rem week to week, particular! v when we aro scarce of room for reading matter. But if we have baen too negligent in this particular heretofore, we will endeavor to make amends for the future, by giving more attention to that department of our paper, as we do not deem it at all unimportant. War News. Wo have heretofore continued quite full accounts of tho Eastern War. At times our items seemed rn'.her interesting mid erxh arrival waa looked to with exceeding anxiety until such a manifest sameness produced distrust, which, togcth er w ith the fact that all our reports senned so clearly to favor a partiality in favor of tho portics making them, induced us to believe that they wore scarcely ralinble All new move merits, however, will bo duly Lotcd, and our renders kept potted, w hen we receive anything worthy of their attention.

Dear Sir: A Mr. Peter Dunkle, of Logansport, has taken the contract fer a dailv mail (Sundavs excepted) from that pl8ce to Niles, Mich. His proposal was accepted yesterday by the Post Office Department, and soon, I doubt not, your uual mail facilities will be restored to you. Very Respectfully, NORMAN EDDY. Wm. J.

Mr. Burns: I would like to call on the Township Trustees of all the Townships of this county, through your paper, to know whether it would be. iho't expedient by them to have a T-ustee's Meeting at Plymouth, on the first Saturday in October, or at any other time by them suggested, for the purpose of consulting each other's views upon the subject of the Common Schools in the county, and request the School Examiner to bt. present, and some suitable person to j deliver an ad Jress. An answer from some ' of said trustees requested next week. DAiNIhL A IN DREW b, Trustee, Bourbon. Disorackfll Outrage. A disgrncoful outrnga occurred nt "Lake View House." last evening tho particulars of which we learn, wore ns follows: A party of Irishmen hnving boon nttending a funeral, proceeded afterwards to the above named houso and demanded something to drink. Boing somewhat intoxicated and noisy tho Proprietor who was sick sent word to tho harkeeper not to sell them any liquor, which was the signal tor a not, and an indiscriminate attack was mndo upon tho house, and gentlemen who happened to bo there at the time. Mr. Henry Butler of this city, was felled by a blow over the head with a club and his thumb nlmosl bitten olT. Mr. T. O. Wilson was likewiso severely hurt, and others ol the parly moro or 1cm injured. The house was also considerably damaged. Wo did not learn that any arrest had been made or the leaders in the outrage identified. Chicago Journal. A Clergyman of a country village de sired his cleikto give, notice that there would be no services in the afternoon as he was 'feoirg to officiate for another clergyman.' The clerk as soon as the sermon was ended rose up with all due soletr.nity, and called out - 'I am desired to give notice that there will be no service this afternoon, ns Mr. L. is going fishing with another clergyman.' Mr.L. of eursa corrected the awkward yet amusing blunder,

For the Banner. Mr. Editor: I see by your last paper, that two somebody's calling themselves Quia and 0. K.' -true to their inconsistency are out on me, with a repetition of the Nebraska, Whiskey and Slave question, and their foolish use of names. Instead of meeting my article as they pretend to do, they make me the subject to start on, and then go off at a tangont onto their 'one idea,' of Slavery, Whiskey and personal abuse combined, which

seems to De ine only thing tnat Iney pos-j sfss in the shape of ideas. Now look at the thing one moment ns it is. J round loult wiih the unwarran-i ditlerent on the Nebraska and liauor aues- ! lions from the Convention alluded to. and not anv one else. Am! I comnlainori tht ministHfS who vPir (Ar shmiM c.Our ! ihruisetves to b n.rt-os'to such ir,l names and unlimited exfommunirstinns i when they should be messengers ol IVace. (Let me remark here in parenthesis. that auis' tells a wilful falsehood, in his first paragraph, w hf n hesys that 'Christianity and christian ministers are unwarrantably attacked and abused by your correspondent, (meaning me) with' out exception.' No v he knows that is false, tor ho read my article, and he knows that it is exclusively confined to thos who passed such hard resolutions in that Convention, and does not name or allude even to any others.) 1 charged thrm with cowardice in being afraid to enforce liquor laws that do punish, and with styling a meeting of not over 30 people, as n 'meeting of the citizens of Marshall county.' and with being inconsistent in their actions in a former convention and in the last one. 1 did not say the Nebraska bill was fight or wrong, or that the Maine Law was expedient or the rvere, or find fault with ministers for dabbling in politics, or canvass Slavery or the Liquor question in any shape. I only charge 1 those ipAo wert in that Convention with inconsistency and hard mouthed expressions. I did not even call ha rd names; I only blamed ineir course. Quis' and 0. K lik : a boy in love. with a gal in both eves, can sce only the' one thini and strai'itway teai off after i it like a runaway horse. No matter what the subject is, utl they go onto the Nebraska hud liqi'or qiicstiuu iu ans'veihig m-, when I did not pretend 10 discuss it. They repeat their abuso of men who i!iffrr from them in opinion, and 'Quis' opens his biblical lore, au I calls ine an 'ass,1 (I'll wager a lemonade he's a minister,) while -U. K., in the ubtin lance of his wrath and Zt'al calls me a -booby,' and so they go. Did 'Witherspoon,' or the others you refer to, and especially the one who signed the Declaration of Independence, use such language as you do. my good sirs? And did they abuse everybody who tho'i Jeirrson's Declaration of Independence was not truth in every word, aud read them out of 'society? Keep cool good christians, be a little charitable, und don't kick so hard w hen you are not spurred. My lear Quis,' den't deny my number of cititns' at that meeting and intimate that 1 don't know and you do: i because you are encroaching again on the bounds of falsehood. ii o w you know that you was not there. you do not; and I am adtised when j speak and duut olten make a puhlic asser tion without being adv.sed. 1 will now tell you w hat you do not know ; but it is true. 'All told.' there was but 'J(3 there at the most, and three of them were Nebraska men. Much of the time there was only from 17 to 21, and at 110 time. j over 20, three of thtm against you aud one not a voter. Don't charge nie so hard with your own ' gins. 1 n ally believe that all men. miu isters included, should ai l in politics; but they should 0 act as to quiet fer ment, not create and increase it soothe by kind language, and not provoke abuse. Aud then it was rather contemptible in you, 'Ojiis,' to jump onto the grammar, when oi: felt called on to answer the matter. Rather a poor opinion you must have of the readers of the Banner, to think that the attack of one who could write nothing bul' incoherent stuff 'sheer balderdash,' and vulgar 'hotch potch.' (as you style my article) upon so great and august a thing as 'Christianity and her whole ministry,' without exception, needed the light of your wisdom to prevent their being milled. That's about as much of a coniidiiiu'ut as you pay them iu rega-rd to their ability to govern them selves. It won't do, 'Quis,' it is evident you thought it something more than this (notwithstanding you say not.) or you would not have noticed it, and made it a tex: to preach a Nebraska and Liquor ser moii on. Rather small, that, about the grammar,' und all that, wasn't it "Unis,' in as much ns the Lest ideas are not always grammatically expressed, nor rhetorical llourish always good sense? Rather more of the Jlesh 111 that spirit, than of the principles of your Divine Master. Now, my good sirs, take up my article which you huvc wasted so much ink aud paper on, ami prove that one statement is untrue. Or, quote youT 'bible1 not about ..' but rules that authorize; you to drive men from 'society' in a mass, and call them foul names. Assert aud prove that you did hoi do this, (I have shown the affirmative by your resolutions) or if you admit it, show that it is right and that you are good ministers in so doing, and following in the footsteps of your worthy predecessors. Don't go around my article and bark at it like a dog at a snake he is afraid of, but since you have condescended (?) to notice it, take it up and deny it, if you can and tell the truth, and disprove its statements. For your benefit, I repeat that you did do what is there alledged, and that it was wrong, and unworthy of you or your cause; and the fact that some poor fool (if any body ever did) called somebody 'itinerant vagabonds (you dare not say 1 did so) its a poor excuse for you to reenact that fool's part, by calling hard names back to him or some one else. I'm sorry for you, gentlemen (tuking it for granted that you mean to be under stood as upholding the resolutions and conduct of that Convention,) because professing to be ministen and christians

either your zeal and passion has fox the time-being run off with all your prudence and judgment, or because, your fighting propensities occupy the place that ought to be filled with a desire for peace, and prudence enough to dictate a peaceable course of conduct. AMEBICAN.

July 10, 1854, Some curious and important intelligence will go officially to Washington by the steamer Indiana, which leaves Havre on Sunday next for New York, This intelligence, relates to uew movements which Roesia is about to make, and to some important propositions which she desires brought to the attention of the American Government. These propositions are entirely neutpral, as regirds the present war. being questions that might be considered in lime of peace as well as now. A gentleman formerly resident in the United States, late Conseiller Do Cour of the Emperor of Russia, has loft his position near the person of the Grand Duke Constan tine, to go to Washington temporarily as a spcial messenger to the United Stales Government. The strong sympathy, amounting even to love, which the Court of Russia manifests towards the United States at this moment, opens the way for negotiations with that power on matters disconnected with the war which may never occur again. Kuss'a deaires American sympathy, she has need of Amricai money, and so strong a hatred has lately sprung up against England that Ehe will sacri ftce much of her personal interests to irritate tint power and to cripple her on American soil. There is without doubt, therefore, a proposition on its way to Washington, having in view the cessiou of important territory to the United States for a money consideration, as well as propositions for the prouioiion'and extension of com mercial relations between the two coun-' tries. Russia is making preparations for a ten year's war, on a scale of magnitude which must more or less cripple her finances, notwithstanding her extraordinary resources, and a money friend such as America will be almost indispensable to her. The crisis through which she will have to pass wilt compel her to make any sacrifice almost which may be demanded to secure such a friend, and if she can by cecdin territory secure sympathy and money, and at the same time thrust a thorn into the side of England, she will readily do it.
