It is n well know fact, that any amount of fundsth.it may he required, cm bo obtained nn the credit of the Stale, nt an interest of from three to live per cent, on c-rtilicates j payable Irom twenty to filly years alter dale; it is therefore perfect y ill tho power ol the Legislature to adopt such measures, as will bring into the State, an amount amply suffi cwnt to complete all the woiks undertaken by incorporated companies, or the Slate, at an mleroot, little, it nny, over h ilfthc legal r.iu.

Ii appear*, from the game document.that the works above named, and many others, which have long since b 1 e i completed and in successful oper ation, have not limited or nut afied tbc eider pr'ze of that great State. ’l'fio G wonier lignin remarks: “tho future expend lore on public works already authorized by Ihu Legis lature, including the enlargement ol (he Kne ('anal, wilt amount to more than ff;.n'J,OOt),- 001), besides the three mil ion for which tho S ate hi* loaned its credit, to the ,New York and Krio Rnl Road Comp on.

In I’eun sylvam.t it has been found practicable to transport anthracite coal, which Is almost us heavy as gra nite, on Hud Honda. One of the great objects ol the contemplated Hail Hoad from Mow Vmk to L ike J3ne, is to hung produce to market when iho canals and rivers are closed by ice. One ton of coal, worth on on average*, five dollars, is its heavy us five hales of cotton, worth two hundred and fifty dollars. Two barrels of Ro n worth twelve dollars, arc equal in weight, lo one bale ol cotton, wort 1 Aliy dollars ; nud if a Con ol Ilnur, worth sixty dollars, will bear transportation on a Rad Kofril, it will not be deemed extravagant to suppose that the Mime weight of cotton, worth two bundled and Aliy dollars, can ho transposed in the sumo way. And if the products ol the north, lo*s valuable m proportion to their weight limn those of Iho 80111 h, can ho conveyed Irom Ihfc Northern lakes on Kail Hondo to New oik, It will ho admitted that (ho products of the valley of the Mississippi limy he convoyed to the coast ol Georgia hy similar means. Hotel lam ng these views, the committee do not hesitate to say, that in their opinion, it is expedi ent torihe Mule to lend its aid to companies in corporated for the purpose of constructing works of Internal Improvement, ar.d to raise turn’s on the credit of the State to improve the navigation of oui rivers—to complete the Blute* work now in progress, and such others na may hcrcaltcr he commenced by I ie Mtute—and to elVeci those ob jeetfl, they respectfully lecommond to the General Assembly the passage of the bill herewith submit ted.

Wo have die Monlreal papers of Thursday,but they contain no intelligence at all comparable in inlcrcm with tlio following from Uoilinglon. C'orresjionitcnce of the N. T.jj Com. Advertiser. Fuse Piuiss Orrnis, ) Burlington, Nov, 2(>. 5 CANADA—ENGAGEM ENT BETWEEN THE LOYALISTS AND PATRIOTS—IO KILLED AND WOUNDED! By the steam boat Franklin, which arrived at 9 o’clock this morning, vve learn that an engage ment has token place hatween 200 of the Brit ish regulars and Iho U medians at St Daniil--, hi which the latter were successful. The loyalists lost 16, killed ami wounded, and two brass pie ces. Caylain Malcom is reported as inui tally wounded. The patriot loss was not known. It appears dial the patriots have made a stand at St Charles, about 20 miles below Monlreal, and are repairing an old French fort. Their number is staled ot two thousand or more, well armed and furnished, and that they have eight brass pieces. On Wednesday a detachment ol eight hundred regulars and three hundred volun teers left Monlreal, with the intention of breaking up this pod. They landed on Thursday, and had taken up their line of march for St Charles. The advance guard,twiidstiug of 200 regulars, had proceeded as far as St Dennis, when they were attacked by tlio Canadian populace, and after a severe engagement driven back, with the loss above staled. On I liursday night a steam host arrived at Montreal,.bringing tnc bodies ol the slain, when a new detachment consisting of ih* entire regular force of iho city, was immediately despatched down the river. The next boat will undoubtedly bring os further ami more decisive particulars. All seems to depend on UitPßtsull of this expuh thin, as the entire regular force of iho govern ment is engaged in it.—The patriots have a foundaiy of 81. Charles, and are casting their own cannon. Report says that the patriot force of St. Charles is under the command of two French officers of distinct! n, tiaiued under Bonaparte, Os this, however, xvo have no aulhcivie "dot mat ion. from the Montreal Gsse Ie of Thursday tv nitfg. it is currently reported and ueluueam town, that Papmcau. Wollred, Neilsun, Brown, and same oilier leaders, are now ai At. Ch.ule,-,where, with a large body of armed Itabituns, they are said to be fortifying themselves from tlio majesty of Iho law and the Queen’s troops. In conse quence of these reports, a detachment of three c mipanies ot the 2 Lilt, under Lieut. Col. Hughes, and one company ol the 32d, under Capt. .Math ham, a detachment of artillery, under Lieut. Newcomen, with two field pieces, and about twelve ol the Montreal cavalry, under Cornet Sweeny,—all under the command of Hon. Col onel Gore, were embarked yesterday afternoon lor Sotel, where they will be disembarked, it the steamboil calm, t proceed up the Richelieu, and pioceed by laud lo St. Charles. A combined movement, ou the same point, wo believe, will be made at the saute time by tire troops stationed at Chamblv, which consist ol four companies of the Royal, under Liuuicnaiil Colour 1 Wetnciall, ami two companies ot die tlditi regiment; so that we should hope a good account will have been given by this time of the patriots, by her majesty’s troops. As to the other patriots, wo litul that the res- i rued pit-oneis, Dcuiaray and D'Aviguon, arc at ' Highgate, in tlic stale of V ennont, and thar O’- Callaghau hud been scon at Whitehall. We have received a le.tcr tiom the county of L’Aca rlic, staling that Dr. Cole, Lucten Gagnon, E. E. Itodicr, M. I*. I’., with nine or len o-.Ue patriots, had passed over to the I’need State- on Satur day night. They were seen to leave Point a la ) Mule, lor the ot.ier side, about 9 o'clock, and go- j mg over to one Roy’s, who resides there, and lo I purchase arms in the United Slates. Previous to their departure, Gagnon, accompanied by j twelve or fifteen armed men, made a lour through 1 81. Galantine, ordering every man out to attack the troops at Bs. Johns, under the most nguious \ psius and penalties, it they refused to do so. Thus thieaiencd;juauy of them, assembled at Point a la Mule; but aioie than one hall of I - (Mrlsh absolutely refused to obey the outers oil (dogma, an I iemsmed at home.

I heir liberation subsequently gave occasion to " series ! of disturbances, no Sunday, the 19th instant. (] I It appears that after vespets, a number of | ersoiis „ assembled before the houses of the released pri- <- tiuners, to congratulate them on their deliverance. f They were addressed by Messrs. Chasseur and i; Morin; and soon after a scuffle began between ■ parlies of the royali-ts and the disaffected,in which i sundry heads were brekett, and various other rl ; breaches of the peace were committed, ihe windows of Mr. Monin’s house were broken, and |, , also those of Messrs. Chasseur ond Legate. j‘ A meeting of the magistrates was held on Mo: - y j day, at which various measures were adopted for p j securing the peace of the city. The military - 1 j guards were also strengthened. c 1 i* S. Biticc the above was in type, wc havo t» received the Montreal Courier ol Friday. It confirms the report of Wednesday relative ie ~ the old French fort at St. Charles, the occupa- h tion of Mr. Dcborlzeh’s bouse, and the match of t I the troops from Montreal- Up to a late hour on Thursday night, the ‘ Courier says’no intelligence had arrived Irom the [ expedition. The Montreal morning papers go i to press, generally, at 9 or 10 o’clock in the eve . ning before (he publication ; the steamboat with p | the wounded and slain, may lliercfore have reach- led Montreal on Thursday night, as staled in the r Uoilinglon papers, after the Courier was printed, t I The editors of the Courier promised lo issue ‘ i an extra, as soon as intelligence should arrive. \ SECOND POSTSCRIPT.

The Bank Convention ot present holding its , session in New Yoik, lias under consideration a measure w hich involves most vitally the interests of the whole trading community. In their deli berations upon this all important subject, it is hoped the members will consider well and exam ine maturely Inf .re they decide. It would seem ’ to us that the question is not solely whether the Banks can resume payments in specie, but wheth er the trading cnnimunily can undergo the pres sure consequent on such a step. A Bank has only to reduce its circulation in order to bn able to redeem its notes in coin, and however true it may he, dial by so doing iho institution fails to 1 gain, the reduction is not fatal lo its concerns.— • The diminution of circulation carries with it an abridgement of the discount line, and it is in this respect, that the business community is affected. : If discounts be diminished under existing circutn t stances, when so heavy an amount of old indebt , ness is impending, how arc obligations to be met, lo say nothing of new engagements. The Banks ; may he compared lo so many mills—lt is easy enough lo graduate the quantity lo he ground,but it a certain quantity lie not ground the people will starve lor want of food. Binco the above paragraph wav written, wo , have received the following, contained in the N. York Journal of Commerce, second edition of Mrcdnesday; from which it would appear that at ’ the present time no period will ho designated by the Convention for the resumption of specie pay -1 incuts. The Lonvx.vtio*.-—lt is now pretty well as certained that the Convention will not fix on any ■ time lor the resumption of specie payments. They will vary likely adjourn lo a luture day, say March. Wo doubt very mutdi whether the N. York Banks will feel at liberty to postpone their 1 action lo a distant day. 1 Connecticut is ready, and those who are ready will probably resume. It is understood that Mr. - Biddle is one of tnc chief, if not quite the chief obstacles in the way of fixing a definite period for the resumption. Opinion here is, dial N. Y’ork has it in her power to resume, with perfect secu rity, whether other cities do to or not. Speaking of the second day’s proceedings of the Convention, the Express says— A committee was appointed who exnniiiiedlhe credentials of the delegates. The uieclin- did hut little business; hut there was a good deal of 1 discussion. It is evident that there are about fif ty persons capable of taking patt iu the debates, so that it is certain that lime will be a good deal of ’ discussion. Mr. Gallatin, who is a teal lloot < member in all delibera ive budies in which he takes part, occupied the time of the convention in speaking at length. Tueconvention settled one very impoilant ques tion, and that was lhal each Stale should have but one vote. By this determination the delegates of each Stale will have to caucus together before vo- ! ling. A committee was then appointed composed ‘ of one in ana her from each Stale, to dia't n’report to be submitted to-day at 11 o’clock, pointing out what particular bu i less will be proper to engage the attention of the convention. Mr. Gallatmis ot.e of this committee, representing New York. 1 A proposition was submitted to admit report- f ors, but no question was taken in relation lo it. 1 the room in which the convention is held, is alto- c gelher too small, and a much larger one will prob ably have to bo provided. In an article ou the subject of the resumption of specie payments, the Journal of Commerce .ays— > AII pertioa, we (rust, will be glad to seo the Banks resume specie payments. To bung about this most desirable event, under circumstances the most casj .‘" r lliC wl l° le country, and at the best time, is the grand object of this meeting. '*’!>« movement came with great propriety from the I New York Banks originally, for they are the insti tutions which muslespecially act the generous part in tho resumption. The liquidated balances now due lo New York from tho East and immediate Buulh ate very great. From the East nis estimated at $ 3,000,000 C Ftom Philadelphia 3,00u!t)0« „ From Baltimore 1,500,000 ' $7,500,000 inhere aro also considerable balances duo from the iar South and West, From these points, how - ever, immense products are pouting in upon us, which must rapidly adjust their differences; and as fur the Yankees, they are sure to come down upon their feet, however many limes they may he whirled over. A very considerable portion of their apparent debt had its origin in paper taken f for their manufactures, but which now lies here protested. h We nope eventually a good portion of it will f lie available. The great wealth of Philadelphia, with all the resources and tho credit of the great monster to boot, and the vigorous resources of Baltimore, will not fail in duo time to hting all | 11,m 6» r ‘Sht. It is evident lhal in all those dircc ; HOMS some curtailment of home facilities will bo ‘J necessary, and in the mean lime it will bo neces- , * a, y llut Hie New York Banks should be liberal ( in their treatment of balances. n xregjTx Ala.
