The assertion by telegraph that the reb-
els had fallen back upon Manassas, and
The ether assertion that they have chang
ed the direction Of their line, are to
be received with many grains Of allow
ance. The first is very doubtful and the
last is certainly untrue; and if the men
who r.ake and send out the dispatches
from Washington had spark Of sense,
they would not fail to sec it; because &C
counts which came with this last reported
change, assure us that the rebels are in
strong fcrce on the Potomac, both above
and below the city-a fact no. reconcilable
with the other part Of the story, aud not
easy to be explained if the retrograde
movement of their centre, upon Manassas,
has taken place. The abandonment Of Vi
crna and tie permission graciously &C
corded beTy Of our Generals to take theil
dinner there On Thursday, proves that the
rebels have fallen back, certainly, but moi
necessarily upon Manassas They may
be, and prooab1y are, in force at Fa1rfa,
and Cent1eyille; but We do not doubt thei
disposition to avail themselves Of the strong
entertainments and heavy batteries upo1
the old feId-a favor that the Young Ma
poleoD will be sure to refuse them, if bril-
liant tactics can draw them into an ope1
field or open their flank to his attack. 0
une thing we are assured will not fgh
tLem where the chances do not promis'
him a victory.

Patriotic Action OF the New York
Banks,

Ih11 Int N. l. 1il1luEs 1AtA-1
The Bank Managers hold a meeting to HOT
row, probably to consider the propriety Of at
once accepting their privilege Of taking the
third fifty millions Of the Government loan,
aud putting It st once to the credit Of the Gov
e,rment, thus adding that amount to their in
tesest-eazniEg investments. Mr.. Vail OF the
Bank Of Commerce Was at Washington yes
tercay, in consultation with the Secretary Of
the Treasury, and viii probably report tn1 re-
suit Of his mission to the meeting. The banks
have alsoFn contemplation to take the$l00 co., !
Geo Of seven per cent stock authorized BY the
loan act, sud a portion Of Afr. Wallis mission
is understood to be to obtain The option OF
taking this amount. If not, there is q party
Of capitalists in the street ready to take fifty
millions Mt once They are connected with
foreign capitaliste, and proposed eome months
Eince to Mr. Seer etnry Chase to place the whole
Of this loan in Europe Mr.. Chase declined,
prtteuirg, If possible, to raise the money at
heme. There is also q disposition among the
Bank Managtre-we think mistaken one
to stop the sale Of the 7.30 per cent notes at
par after a given date, and bets have been
made 1T the Union Club that these notes will
besr 5 per cent. premium in sixty days. We
think tnch course would check the enthusi-
as1n prevailing at present In regard to the Ma
tional Loan, and might react unfayorably upon
Other Government securities.

Matters are approaching, q crisis n ken,
lucky. Intelligence has been received at
Gen. Sher1Ean's heaGq0arters which warrants
the belief that Gen. Buckner has collected 8
much larger force at Bowling Green than has
been supposed, and that he medisa.es q
speedy movement up the railroad towards
Louisville,
Early yesterday forenoon, Gen. shsrr,la
te1egraphed urgent demands for re-enfur2s-
aud Adjutant General Thomas arrived !? this
city from Louisville and Lexington, 81 dis
patches were immediately sent to Pits
burg, indianapolis and Chicago, ordering eight
thousand troops to be forwarded during the
night to General Sherman, by special trains.
T1eee troops are doubtless now we'll on their
wsy, and the aFprehensions for tho safety Of
Louisville may therefore be dismissed. Eve
1ythfng, however, indicates action In that di-
1ection, and important ne#H may be expected
speedily from the central Kentucky column.
The falling back Of the rebels from their
| lines before Washington, the probability o1
their having detached troops for service In
| Kentucky, and the fact that louisville is the
| mCst accessible and most valuable Of the prizes
Kentucky offers, tend to confirm the expecta

The people Of Illinois, ut the next gene
ral election, are to vote upon law passed
al the last meeting Of the Legislature, au-
1lorizing, if they approve OF the measure,
the establishment Of the Union Bank Of
Illinois" In order that all our readers
may vote understandingly, We publish the
Law in full this morning. Let every voter
study it carefully and make up bis mind
as 10 its merits.
The law is modelled after the Indiana
Bank law, though ours, as one gentleman
expressed it, is "rather more favorable to
the bankers" Is to the Bank Of the State
of Indiana, it is understood to be now in
the hands of men ofintegrity and real cap
ital; hence the people give it their conf
dence. But The law, when passed, was
controlled by set Of mousing politicians
who procured its passage on purpose
10 sell out their franchise, and ins
aher own pockets They accomplished
their object, for the branches were sold Il
capitalists at from five to twenty-five
thousand dollars each. The political jug
E1ers really made "big thing" out Of it
As to the merits Of OUT own law We Ehal
not, certainly for the present, give al
opinion. If approved, its future histor,
viii depend entirely upon those init
whose hands it falls. II, like the Stat
Bank Of Indiana, men Of integrity and rca
capital take hold Of it and manage it as
pugh; to be managed, it will do for nlinoi
what the Indiana institution is doing fo
our sister State-furnish us with redeem
able home currency. But "Hoe worth th
