At a respectable meeting of the citizens of Ham ilton county, held in the Prubyterinn church in Chnttnn ioga, on Sntuidny the 28th ult., on motion, Win. Smith, Esrj. was called to the chnlr, and F. A. Fnrhnnt, appointed Secretary. Tire object of the meeting Iwing explained, on motion, tho Chair appointed the following gentlemen a committee to draft a preamble and reflations, viz. bln;. John Cowart, ■ — ———, and F. A. Parham. The committee retired to Kennedy’s Hotel, and after a short delay, returned and reported ihe following preamble and resolutions, which, after animated discussion, were adopted: Whereas, in the fulfilment of the grand enterprise set on foot in Macon, Ua., a f»w years tinco, uf opening up a thorough fare tn connect the Southern Atlantic Ocean, with the nnvigabln waters of the West, u Hail Road bus been located and is now being boilt to intersect the river at this point. And wheroHs, it is ardently desired and reasonably ex pected by the citizens uf Georgia, that the toad should be continued on intotho very heart of the Mississippi Volley—reachirg with its trunk, tho great futhurof waters,nnd traversing with itabram-H- es, an ares of country, unsurpassed in soil, climuto, mineral wealth, and extent of territory, by that of any other Rond in thp United Stutos. Audit i#bp-- lleved that such a arhome, if put in operation, will redound to the honor and highest interest of Ten nessee and Iter sister States on the North mid West. And whereas, it is expedient and highly important that we should be fully aroused to tho magnitude of the enterprise, anil while Georgia is magnani mously running her rond, even within our t> rrituri- nl borders, wo should, with n united voice and con centrated onergy posh forward the mighty work, to its final and trii.mplmnt completion—‘Therefore, Rrtolved, Tlmt wo view with singular »ni|*fac- lion, the rapid progress of tho W. «J-A. Rail Road, end cunsmtohit* tho citizens of Georgia on the favorable prospect ofeurly reaching the terminus of tho grent enterprise, Resolved, Thnt from what we liuvn scon and ho'ird, it is our candid beliefihai this place presents the most favorable ground on tho river for an inter secting point, in view of its extension to the Missis sippi—That immediately in the line from here to Nashville, tho physical features of the countiy nro unsurpassed for building a road,with one or two ex ceptions ofn comparatively trivial nature. Rrtolved, Tlmt a commit ten of five be appointed redraft a charter for a Roll Rond from this plnre to Nashville, and also u potition to obtain signatures all over the general section or country, praying, that honorable body to grant the ^Charter. Reto/vd, That our immediate representatives in the Legislature lie instructed to uso their influ ence to have the chartur granted, and tlmt in view of tho general good to tho Slate, wo implore the favorable consideration of our memorial by thu whole body. Rrtolved, That we look upon tho courso of the ChiefCivil Engineer of Georgia,Col. S.H. Lung, ns being ch iracterisllc of n di-interosted, honorable and scientific officer, and that wo look upon his efforts in tin* furtherance of the great YVosiern & A. Rail Road, to a proper terminus on the Ten nessee river, and in behalf of u continuous line of railway Into tho bosom the Mississippi valley, as manifesting an enlarged philumliropy, and expand ed viows of the best interests ofour common coun try; as highly conducive to the vrulfnie of Giorgio, ami every other modiutely in crested section of coun try. Resolved, That in view of the general good to the whole State, and tha immediate advantage to the counties named, that we invite the co-operation of the citizens nf Marion, Coffee, Franklin, Bledsoe, Wnrren, Rutherford, and Davidson; and tliut we request thnt they will hold meetings, express their viows, and petition tho Legislature fur u Charter. Resolved, That tho editors in Chattanooga,— Winchester, McMinnville, Murfreesborougb, Bnd Nashville, and the Federal Union of Milledgevilla, and other paper* elsewlioro, frlondly to the enter prise, bo respectfully and earnestly requested to publish the foregoing proceedings. In obedleneco to the third resolution, the Chair appointed B. R. Montgomery, Esq. R. Henderson, Esrj., ■— .James A. Whiteside, Esq. and F. A. l’arham, a committee to draft a petition nnd a charter, for the road to Nashville. Where upon, tho meeting adjourned tine die. WILLIAM SMITH, Cb’nt. F. A. Parham, Sec’ry. tumult areoffired In the meat friendly spirit* for w taka credit to ourselves in sustaining out banks whenever they hsvn been ••sailed, as part of that system uf credit which is interwuven with the public pro*|wriiy. In the first place, then, we think that whatever may bo th* hazards run by tins Batik of Charleston sod the Bank of tha State of 8outh Carolina, by increasing their circulation, there can be none to which tha othar banking institutions ofour rhy are subject, wbl :h can by possibility, plnre thalr Inte rests in jeopardy, with one exception, which we shall state hereafter, and which can be made a mat ter of friendly arrangement. The only objection which we have beard stated to the increase of their discounts and circulation is that the two spado-pay* in^banks will discot nt on the notes of Urn other hanks placed with them on dcno.it, and that the bal ances ngainst the non-spccia banks, if not paid in specie, will carry the same rare of interest as they receive on their circulation. Unoof these objection, destroys, in a degree, the uthur. If the two specie- paying hanks discount on the deposits made in tho notes of tho other banks, the balanco ngainst the latter will be in tlte same ratio diminished, and there is no possibility that more than one third In amount of tits notes issued by tho latter can, thro* deposit es, constitute a bulnncu against them. They Vill, if thoy hive to pay thu sumo rata oflntcrest on those balances, as they receive, derive a latter amount in interest than they pay, by thu sum which is kept in circulation and not deposited in tho two specie paying banks, and by tho amount deposited with the latter, and which ts again returned to the circulation in discounts. If the two specie-paying banks should derive a profit from the oirouluiiun of the non-specie banks, the non-specie paying banks would derive a touch larger profit from their circu lation, while the mercantile community would be rol'evcd These objections nro, therefore, of no force. . .There is, however, another argument employed by the non-specie paying banks which is uf weight. It is urged tlmt thu capitals of the two specie- paying banks being large, they possess tha power of iiu'iu-sing the non-specie paying banks whenever re sumption takes place, iftliese enlarge their circula tion hnynnd its present limit*, and in proportion to that enlargement. Tlte balances would probably be called fur Tn specie, inwhicheasethe nrm-speclepay ing banks will have been supplying the means of pro fit, through theircirculation, tu the other institutions, while they furnished them also tho moans of haras sing thorn, whenever resumption takes place. There ought to he some previous arrangement, be cause here there would be justly (bunded causes of apprehension. It aught to bo understood, through friendly concert and interchange of views, that these balances, whenever resumption take place, will not bo culled for suddenly inspecie, but interest only're- quired on them, at such a rate as will not be oner ous on the present non-specie paying banks. It is only by such concessions, in the spirit of harmony, that banking institutions, can fulfil their obligations to the public. We repeat that we utter these sug gestions with the most friendly feeling to all our bunking establishments: and wo are solely governed byannnxioty to see amicable arrangements take place of feelings of jealousy, that the community may sustain and respect those establishments with which their interests are so closely identified. Let the Directors then of all our bunking institutions come together, und by their common counsels and mutual concession*, curn the lasting confidence of, while they relieve, thu community. The Bunks at Winchester, Va. have suspended. Tim Huuerstown Bank hasulso suspended. Cincinnati Banks —-The news of tho oastern Bank suspensions notched Cinclnna'i nn the 14th and produced no small sensation. On tho tame day all tbe Banks in that city suspended, except the Commercial. The predlcamentin which the Banks in the State of Ohio are pluced by tnis event is thus referred to itqtbe Cincinnuti Gazette of llm I5lh in stunt: V OHIO BANKS—RUIN EITHER WAY. Tho suspension of specie payments, in thn Atlan tic cities, must bu followed byugenmnl suspension. Tho bnnks ihut continue to pay will bo druined of their coin, in a veryshuu lime, by tlmt process. And, in Ohio, suspension is attended wbh still innie serious consequences. By tha banking law of last session, February 16, 1839, pruvisiutt is made, that If tiny batik of the state, suspend specie payments, for a longer term thun thirty days, in any one yeot, the president judge of the court of C. P Circuit, in which the bunk is sitnutrd slinll issue a writ, for the soonest ration of suuh bunk, and, through the sheriff, deliver nil its effects, to one or more, of tho bank commissioners. The commissioner is required re proceed immediately to Collect thts debts due the bank, and dispose of its property, and apply the proceeds to the payment of its debts, for which pur poses special cum missioners tnuy bn appointed by the principal board. We believe the p.ovisions of this law are peremp tory. Tho bank commissioner must apply re the judge who must order the sequestration. It is thus that the Ohio banks are exposed to utter ruin either way. If they continue repay specie till thuir lust dollar is gone, then the sequestration must comu If they surrender at onco, thocommissio er must pny out th" specie to the first thut mukosjdumaud,so that all thu sjHicie in our banks is exposed todistribu'iun, in a very shoittime: and all their debtors are. liable to forced payments, withuut delay. Nothing cun snvo the banks and bank debtors but an ability to continue specie payments, by tlte banks. From this devastating ruin there seems to be no other es cape. None but one is practicable, a special call nf the Legislature, within the thirty days, to modify this law. The wide spread destruction of business nnd property, that the law must work, in Ohio, par ticularly, is sufficient to vindicate this cull, notwith standing the opinions emertulmd by the Governor and the ruling powers, on thu subject of bank*.— Imagination cannot conceive the waste than an Im mediate bringing to a forced market,the millions of property necessary to pay our bank debt must pro duce in the Siute! I Nothing like itwus ever heard of in the cu.'lecilun of debts. by a process which wra.t be very economical t Iftbeyfoll banking law they moat begin atwwt •act naw resource*! they must acrej capital; they must, lu fact, eel tip bank. In every point of view in which vtn can regard It, tin advice to the banks tu atoppeynrent, and the at. tempt to get up a clamor in favor of. each an let of dishoneaty, ere hollow, treacherous end profligate. Tbe step will bo fatal to thoae whoere weak enough to expeet to profit by It, We have reed somewhere uf a convict at the gallows, who, just at the rope was putting about his neck, was addressed by the devil in proper person with an oflbr of servic--. Tin* evil spirit, who did not feel quite sure of tlin man's •oul, whispered in bis ear that Ifbe-vtould give him • sign of hamsge, which be mentioned, lie would immediately deliver bltn.

American j UUhimt, The Review.—Tho review ofyesterduy was the most remarkable nanidr.for tho number of troop*, since the war.—'All the infantry forca of the city was yesterday out—amounting, as far as we could form an estimate, to be between 11 und 12,000 men. The day was uncommonly fine, and of course the throng of spectators was greatly Increased thnre- by ,, The line was formed on lh.» Sixth avonua, nnd rx- tmded nearly three miles. At about 11 o,clock tbe Governor left his quarters ut the City Hall, sur rounded by u numerous and brilliant stuff, including tho Adjutant General, the Cummlunry, Quarter Mnstor and Paymnstot Generals uf thostatc, his aida nnd the officers of the staffs of tho respective Mqjor Generals of the line. Ho was oscorted by • corps of cavalry, the Greys. On reaching the right nf the line ho was received by tho senior ufficre, Mqjor General Doughty, and as 1m redo leisurely down tho line, was saluted in succrssion by each corps .This over, he proceeded with hi • staff and es> cort to Washington Square, where marques for their reception had been pitched, and there awaited the marching salute. After a sufficient Iniorvid, and whon the head of the column was at hand, thu Gov ernor remounted, and took his station at nbuul the centre of this spacious park, w ith Ills staff formed in the reur, nnd the Mayor of the city on his right —and therefor two hours and mure, the time con sumed In the passing of the troops, sat uncovered in acknowledgment of the salutes paid to him. At about half past 3 o'clock the-review termini- ted, the regiments were marched tu their respective parade grounds and then dismissed, Altogether It wns a very animating display, and considering that the great mass of those out, were unonifornt.-d mil itia. the effect was very good. Some of the uni formed companies attached to the regiments were of very soldierly port nnd bearing—if we do n->t discriminate, it is really from the difficulty, as thoy rnssed, of sayingwhlch was most firm and roeular u its march, or steady and accurate in the posltii of its arms, &o. The ground In Washington Square wa« well kept by the cavalry escort and by the Union Uifl.-mcn, and tho whole parade, went off with great eclat, nnd, so fur as wo could learn, withuut any arch de> t.

At a late hour of the night we boarifod brr, and through the cour tesy of a gentleman passenger, we have received verba) information respecting the state of affairs, and a puperof the 11thJune, and through the attention of (tie ciiptuin full ship news, which is subjoined. The ship sailed on the 14fh June, and has there fore had n hundred and tweniy five duys nassugn. All the British merchants hud leftduring May. The opium which had been seized was destroyed. The Horatio left no other American ship. She spnke bark Francis of Boston off tho Cape of Good Hope in August; and the Exchange from Batavia bound to Cowes. Trade was entirely suspended al Cat> ton, and all things remained quiet after the sailing of the Panama. There was very little prospect of trade until tho imperial coirj : ..i*sioner should have left; and an indisposition appeared to exist on the part of the Hong merchants to tvnuw nr advance trade. Great ex.-rjemont existed on the part of the Chinese on account of tho suspension of commer cial intercourse. The opinion of the gontlearan from whom we derived tho above information, and who hus boon a resident in Canton for five or six years, is. thnt there is not on American or Euro pean there ut this lime. It was nevertheless sup posed that the trade in opium would be continued, in spite of tho efforts of the government. In the paper submitted to us (the Register,) the only articlu we find worthy of notice is the follow ing. the most of it being occupied by European news:— “ From the following edict our readers will learn thut C .|.i. Elliott has applied to H. E., theimper iul commissioner, for pci mission to tiie British mor- chunts to conduct their business at M -con. It is singular tlmt thisedict, which relates only to Bc3i tisli affuirs nnd British interests, should have been fuiwurd'-d by tho Hong merchants only to the American'merchants in Canton. Not u British merchant nor a British subject ha* received a copy. .Tills cavalier treatment of the British by the Hong merchants requires explanation und satis.action. ’ From the Charleton Patriot, 23d {net. THE CHARLESTON BANKS. Tha increasing pecuniary embarrassments of the city induce us tn address a faw suggn»ti»ns t*> tlwraa who administer tbe concerns ofour Banking Institu tions. It all irnpoi tsnt that the banks should move in harmony, for It i« only by co-operation that the community ran Im relieved from too present money pressor*. A friendly spirit betwren them end the UaaUlunentof jaatoue feeling la what thus* institu tion owe to tho public. 8ucu luggsitioni •» wr may From the N. Y. Eve. Post, 16th in*/. If ono of the drummers of a brokon merchant, who had faifod for twenty shillings in the pound, should go about tho town plotting to make other merchants in good credit foil ulso, end scattering mysterious hints to 'tb ir prejudice,. we suppose that ere long the parsons honored with his visits would begin to show him the door, One or two drummi-isofthu United State* Bank are hard at work trying to drag down the bonks of this city to the sama depth to which thoir patron has gravitated. Tbe Evening Star, in grateful re- col lection, doubtless, of that shameful transaction, tho gratuity of fifty-two thousand dollar*, keeps in sisting, from day to day, thnt our bnnks shall follow the Philadelphia example, and stop payment. It is well recollected that in tho spring of 1837, the failure of the banks was in a good measure owinj to the cry on the part of the whig nrese am other*, that the bunks must, and would suspend payment. The Star is now repeating the method witich then succeeded so well. Tbe design seams to be, by perpetually talking about the necessity of a suspurudon to bring about a ran upon tbe bauks and compel thorn to stop payment. The pretext is the benefit of the merchant-; the merchants, it is said, will, in case of a suspension of specie p-iyments, be enabled to borrow of the banks a* largely us thuy could wish. In other words, the blinks should cheat tho holders of their notes for the sake of accommodating their customers; they should co nmit a breach of fafci* which shall tax every poor laborer and hardworking woman, tu tho amount of a twentieth or tenth of tho money in their hands, for the sake of being able to lend more liberally to those who deal directly with the hanks. But they who rely on this will be disap pointed. If the banks stop payment, they must immediately put their transactions in such a train as will enable them ultimately to return to the pay ment of their notes. To do this they muxiconlract their accomm'*dutiun*; there is no alternative. If they take ihn uthur course, thnUifu profuse extension of banking facilities, tiny only will accumulate upon themselves an immewra load of liabilities; they will only transform their capital into piles of worthless note-; th-?y will only plungo into tbe same ruin which has ingulfed the banks of the /oulljweslern states and tbeir customers together.. This is upon tho supposition that such a course would not bn arrested by law. But the law would interfere; the people would interfere; t he people would not : ok quietly on und tea the whule system of buying and selling, of debt and credit, ell values and ciimut'-s of property thrown Into uuer con fu sion. The affairs of the banks would go into the hand* of receivers, and thoir chartet* would bo for* felted. That may be, answer the honest gentlemen who ask tha banks to client tbdr creditors, the bill holders; that may be, but the bank* could then fall back upon the nnw banking law and reorganize un der it. But what resource would the new banking law offer to the stockholders whose entire capital s taken out of ib<*ir band*; whose connexion with their former customers is abruptly dissolved; whose whole stock of notes and old ohligrtfoiis is in other bind* to collect, and whose affsiia arc wiwlin| up DIED, On Tuesday, the 23d inst. aged seven year* eight months nnd eighteen days, GEORGE MOORE, youngest sun of Capt.
