We copy from Massachusetts, paper the fol-
lowing report of recent meeting of the Boston
Board of Trade ga meeting of the Boston Board
of Trade was called last week to consider what
action should be taken properly to notice, and do
honor to Mr.. GEORGE PEABODY, who is now on a
visit to this country. We are informed that the
President stated the object of the meeting and
awaited its action. No one suggested anything;
at length MIR. BOND moved an adjournment, and
a MIR. ATKINSON, in supporting the motion, de-
nounced MIR. PEABODY in no measured TERMS as
sympathizmg with rebellion, and as receiving the
news of Federal victories in joyless silence. The
Board evidently agreed with MIR. ATKINSON. ana
adjourned without any other action.

Important Movement,

A Washington corresrhndent cf The " New New
York Tribune" says:
"The question of the recognition of the
State Governments in the lately rcbelinus
States will shortly be brought to o practical
test. Measures have been taken by prominent
loyalsts in the South, and are now being per-
fected under the advice Of leading men in
Congress, to bring this question to an early
decision. The plan is as follows: Loyal men,
and they only, both black and white, in the
States ofeArkansas, North Carolina, Louisiana
and elsewhere have taken steps toward the for
nation Of new State Governments. These 10y
al men, without respect to color, will shortly
issue calls in their respective States for State
Conventbns, and elect delegates thereto the
Conventions so formed will frame State Con
stitutons embodyibg the principles of loyalty,
freedom and equal rights; win pledge them
selves to the payment of the National debt,
and the disfranchisoment of the rebels"
"This being done, they will then proceed
to elect Governors, State officers, Representa-
tives and Senators, the latter IF whom will at
once demand admission to Congress. The
question thus being thrust upon that body,
there is no doubt of the recognition of the
Governments SO formed, and the admission of
the loyal members so elected A number of
true aud loyal men Of the South have been
here for some days consulting and deciding
upon the best method to b. adopted, and hav,
ing determined upon the plan prcseated above,
have left for their homes to carry the same
into execution. The matter has been very
quiet up to this time, but as the movement iu
most of the States is now well under way, no,
harm can, and perhaps, much good may, be
done the Union cause by giving the facts to
the public at this time"
Referring to the above in its editorial col
umns, the" Tribune says:
cit is reported that new measure of re-
construction is about to be presented, coming
from the loyal men of the Southern States. -
The details of this plan are given in one of our
special dispatches from Washington. We
learn, on good authority, that the statement
may be relied upon"
