CO A decision has been given by Judge
Clerke, of the Supreme Court of the State Of
New York, in the case of G.. W. Jones Of
Iowa, us. VIM. II. Seward. The action was
brought against the Secretary for alleged ille-
gal Imprisonment of the complainant, and
the defendant moved to have the case removed
to the United States Circuit Court in pursu-
ance Of the act of March 8, 1868, relating to
habeos corpus, &C, the fifth section Of which
provides that if any suit shall be commenced
against any officer, civil Or military, for any
arrest or other wrong done under color of
authority from the President, the defendant
in such suit may remove it to the Circuit
Court of the United States. The present
is such an action, and Mr.. Seward applied to
have it transferred, according to the terms of
the act. Judge Clerke, denied the defendants
motion, and retained the case under his own
jurisdiction. The act of Congress is very ex-
plicit, however, and doubtless the defendant
will find his remedy.

How Will YOU do 1t:

1.-The Courier believes the salvation of the
country depends upon putting Abraham Lin
coin out Of the Presidential chair and placing
a good Democrat in his place." The forego-
ing is taken from the prospectus of the
Weekly Couier for the Presidential cam
paign. For three years nearly the Southern
States have been fighting to put Mr.. Lincoln
out Of the Presidential chair, and placing a
good Democrat, like Dav 5, Breckenridge or
Slidel, in his place. They have labored
boldly and openly. The Courier has labor
ed for the same end in a cowardy, sneaking
manner, but driven by despair and very
madness he throws off his hypocritical garb,
ana talks like very rebel, as he is. This
is the platform upon which Mr. Thayer stands.
He does not tell us how he will do, but the
inference is clear and unmis.akable. With
the recent verdict Of the people, the northern
rebels will have about as good time in put
ting Mr.. Lincoln out as Geo. E. Pugh will
have in going to the border with so, 300 men.
Will Col.(?) Wallace lead them.

We learn from the Sigourncy Ne,es that
the Grand Jury at their recent session in that

exposition of the order precisely similar to

Quincy NeUs says that at the recent term of
the District Court in Keokuk county the cit
liens Of South English who were bound over
for killing Talley were discharged, no indict-
ments having been found. Not single
witness was to be found who could indentify
man that fired shot, excepting Talley
himself. The parties held to answer for con-
spiracy were also discharged, the evidence
against them not being deemed sufficient to
convict
HoM1cIDE.-Wm. Schofeld, Pound Master
of Lyons, shot John Toole, on the 14th inst,
causing his death the following night. Toole
was attempting to chastise Schofield with a
heavy cane or club, because the latter was in
the act of driving some hogs belonging to
Toole to the city pound. The coroner's jury
returned verdict that the act was not
felonious.

seems probable that the Ohio Senate will be
unanimously Union. Only one Copperhead
traitor has majority on the home vote, and
that is a small one, and likely to be drowned

~ Rebel papers say that JEFF. Davis had
reached Bragg's army, and was there for the
purpose of settling quarrels among tho Gen

rebels are by no means satisfied with the re-

after decided victory.

New YORK, July 1.-THE Herald's
dispatch says in regard to the " Peace
Proposition
"The President has not expressed his
opinion, but his recent speech would seem
to indicate that he is in favor Of making
good his promise of freeing the slaves
before cJnsenting to a peace"
ga number of leading Republicans, ="
says the correspondent, "have arranged a
programme, to be submitted to the Pres
ident tomorrow, under which they are
willing that peace should be restored.
1t embraces the following points, said to
have been suggested by Mr. Chase:
list That slavery shall cease in the
phOle United States after 1876; the mi
nors at that time to remain slaves until
2l years of age, and slaves over 40years
old to have the option of their freedom
or to remain with their masters.
Provision is made for the loyal slave
holders receiving compensation for their
manumitted negoes; but no compensa-
ton is allowed the rebel owners" "
"'2d. A convention shall be called
with view to revise the Constitution of
the United States, with view to the
striking out of the 35th provision, recog
nizing slavery as the basis of repre-
sentation, and providing for the emanci'
patton of the slaves in accordance with
the above programme.

The Secrets the Cabinet rereated.~

New YORK July ll.-Herald's Wash
ington dispatch gives the Presidents re-
ply to the Louisiana Planters who petit
toned for authority to Select Federal
and State officers under the existing
constitution.
The President does not favor it as a
respectable portion of the people of Lou
isana contemplate holding Convention
to appoint delegates to attend State
Constitutional Convention. Nor does be
see bow it could facilitate our military
operations IN Louisiana and might be
used to embarrass them.
He concluded by saying that the peo-
pie of Louisiana should not lack oppor-
tunity fair selection of Federal and
State officers.
The same correspondent says the ques-
ton of peace is almust considered in the
cabinet circles, and we are in the midst
of cabinet crisis, growing out of a
proposition of Mr.. Seward, for Presi-
dental proclamation offering an amnes
ty to the people of the South, suspend
ing the liabilities of the con6scation act
and offering full pardon in person and
property to the people of the South ex-

opinion.

says it was the intention ofDavis to of
fer plan of peace including restora
tion Of the Union on the terms embraced

Lees position and Intentions.

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY OF THE
PoToMAc, Friday, July 10.-A vigorous
artillery and cavalry fight took place this
morning over Antietam Creek prepara-
tory to the great expected conflict. The
cavalry and artillery of Buford aided by
Fitzpatrick on the left flank of the enemy
dislodged him last evening from the vii
lage of Benevola on the road from Boons-
boro' to Hagerstown driving him two
miles beyond Beaver Creek.
This morning sharp skirmishing con-
tinue with equal success until the enemy
rested on a strong position near Funks-
town.
The artillery then replied by fresh bat
teries. To detail positions and localities
of corps would be improper.
1t is thought the enemy will make
vigorous stand To cross a portion of
their forces would enable our army to
attack with ease their rear, and they will
probably resist, taking the chance of vic
tory or disorganization.
P M-The utmost activity now pre-
walls in the army of the Potomac
A deserter who came into our lines
last night reports that Lee has single
bridge across the Potomac near Will
Transport and has succeeded in getting
over ammunition and supplies but can
not move his army over with safety or
expedition He reports Lee fortified
with his cannon placed and ready to give
us battle whenever we shall attack.
He thinks Lee has about $4,000 effect.

They are still hopeful of conquering US
and think it was about an even thing al
Gettysburg, and Leeiwill fight his men to
the bitter end.
General Meade says to meet and to
conquer an army of f50,0 900 veteran troops
is most serious undertaking; the result
being determined not by human might
alone
Our cavalry drove considerable force
of their scouts from the front of Boons
boro again last night, through and be-
yond this neighborhood to their entrench
ments near Hagerstown.
At 10 clock this morning the enemy
held the right OF Hagerstown and our
forces the left.
At 2-20 very heavy and rapid cannona,
ding opened on the rebels and continued
about an hour, resulted in arriving them
