it
subject should
be
held above all sectional or party feeling,
and that ihe two conventions should
cordially unite in furtherance of the great, object in view. OU motion, the report was, for the present, laid upon the Speaker's table. Mr. Whitney was invited to take a seat as a guest. Mr. Larue, of Louisiana, offered a resolution in favor of a national road and an Isthmus road, which was referred to the Committee on Resolutions. Mr. Smith, of Texas, offered a resolution in favor of constructing a military road, commencing ori Red River, below the 33d or 34th degree of north latitude, and tlmt block-houses be constructed along the road.

IIliitoix Legislature.
It is difficult as yet to discover what will bo

tho Legislature at
Springfield. It is said a tolerable liberal spirit is manifested by tho House, but not so much in the Senate, according to
proceedings. The
Senate pass

to

concur in the resolution.
THE COLONISATION SOCIETY. The American Colonization Society has been applied to for a passage to Liberia, on tho next vessel, for sixty slaves, now residing near Murfreesboro, North Carolina, who enjoy, by the will of their late owner, the privilege of emigrating to Liberia, if tho Society can pay their expenses. It will require §3000 to do this, and the Secretary of tho Society has issued an earnest appeal for contributions to that amount. He desires

RUSSIA.—Telegraph from Washing ion has the rumor thai the Emperor of Russia had banished to Siberia Bodisco late Russian Minister at Washington, and husbaad of an American lady, for owning property in this country. Bodisco was entrapped to Russia, bis crime first having been discovered by a spy. His property is valued at about half a million—mostly in Government securities. ___________

Things about Town.
Anyone making a little circuit around, or through our Town, cannot fail to observe the improvements in all directions. We notice first those nearest our office; Mr. Harrington's large three story brick on the corner of National Road and Third streets, must necessarily attract attention. This is a noble building—three full stories in height, making three large stores on the first floor, fronting National Road Street,—the corner one of which we understand is already rented for $600 per annum.— The second and third stories of these buildings affording fine rooms for offices, &c.

consequence of M. Fulloux's discussion on the Italian question, American and Turkish difficulties have been postponed in the French Assembly.— The only allusion made in any of the French papers
to the difficulty between
the French and American Governments is in the following paragraph, copied from the Paris Presse: "Some explanation of the affair is necessary. The French Government demanded an indemnity for losses caused to Fronch subjects in the war with Mexico. This demand having met with some difficulty, the French government charged our Minister to announce to the American Government that the indemnities claimed would be kept out of the annuities not yet due, for which we were debt* ors to the United States. It appears that letters written by M.Poussinon the subject were couched in unsuitable language, which the French Government, maintaining the claim, expressed its disapprobation."
It is stated that the French Government intends to recall a portion of its army in the Italian States,and the Spaniards are to enter Rome. It i« reported that the Pope has taken alarm at the numerous assassinations in Rome, and believe there is an active plot for his assupination, should he return to the Holy City.

had
been put on board an American corvette and a French steamer destined, it is said, for Greece.
An eloquent letter from Ko.-suth to Lord Palmerston is published in the English journals.
The news from Wedden is somewhat singular. It appears Amillah had been sent to urge the refugees
to embrace
Mahornetanism, and he had been unsuccessful. Kossuth, Guionn, Zamorish and others swore that no person should induce them to apostacy, but Bern had no scruples.
