The Convention met pursuant to adjournment.— After Prayer by Mr. Speer the journal ol yesterday Considerable debate took place on tho question of refcring the Charters of the several Rail Road Compa nies to the Convention, to inquire what amendments, if •ny, were necessary, to induce the State to embark in a general sjrstem of Internal Improvements—in which Messrs Clayton, Griffin, Spalding, Bailey, Poe, H G Lunar, Cone. Prince, &c. 6ec. took part. The mo- tlon was finally laid on the tabic. The following Risolution offered by Mr Chappell was adopted: . Resolved, That the committee of 40 be instructed to inquire and report, whatmeans by legislation or other- w 'j C - :iro . best calculated to bring about a harmonious find efficient co-operation of the various sections and mterasts of the State in constructing nsystem of Rail c £poeciiog the commercial cities off Georgia with the Tennessee river* • - • . On motion of Mr. Cone, committee of 40 he inetructe,; > Mjiuaof Inter; ail taprov U exertions to this end. She was stimulated to the work not less by the peculiar advantages of her geographical position and features, than by the necessities of her in terior population, and her prescience of the mighty benefits her commerce would derive from making the valley of the Ohio accessible to her great emporium. The subsidence of the Allegany rouge of mountains into that vast extent of plain country which spreads out from the head of navigation, on the Hudson river, to the borders of Lake Erie, invited and facilitated the construction of her Grand Canal.- From the western termination of the canal her commerce wa. carried, by the navigation of the Lake, to the shores of the State of Oliio. The people „f Ohio, taking up the work in their own borders, soon executed a chain of canals, con necting the Ohio river with Lake Erie. So that by the joint result of the internal improvements of New York and Oliio, one great outlet, embarrassed however by much circuity, and numerous transhipments, has been opened from the great West to the Atlantic coast. Pennsylvania has vied actively with New N York iu works of internal improvement, for at tracting the commodities autl commerce of ihr West to her borders; and her communications are now complete through u succession of canals and Rail Roads- Virginia, Maryland and South Carolina, as well as Pennsylvania, have all distinctly entered the lists as competit ors for the same Western trade, upon which N. York has grow n so great: but all these States lack the felicity of position enjoyed by N. York The mountains tovxr up across ihtir jmth to the West. It is not until we teach Guorgia, that we meet with any thing analogous or comparable to the geographical facilities possess, d by N York for constructing artificial chaunels of conimct) c with the West. The dispersion and subsidenc e of the mountains iu the N. \V. angle of Georgia open a way through our territory for a Conner tion of the* Atlantic with the 'Mississippi waters strongly analagousjbutgreqtly superior for all pur poses of extensive trade with the West to that tvhirh N. York owes to the nou-appearance of the same mountain chain across the rout of her great canal. A canal of more than30l) miles in length connects with the Steamboat and sloop n» vigntion of the Hudson, not trith the steamboat navigation of the Ohio and all the Western rivers, but onlv with that" of Lake Erie, and from the Lake through several other channels, and after divers transhipments, nt length with the Ohio whilst a single trunk of rail road of from 110 to 130 miles in length, branching off into three prongs, varying from 100 to 150 or 160 miles in length, would connect our three main navigable streams with a point ou the Tennessee from which we have an assurance of continuous steamboat navigation throughout the whole length of the Ohio andMississippi. and all tbeir tributaries. Ill point of ideographical position aud circum stances then, the advantages of Georgia over N. York for formiug artificial channels of commerce ith the West, seem to be noitlier small or ques tionahle, whilst her nilvnutages in the same re gard over Pennsylvania, Virginia. Maryland aud ti. Carolina are great aud decisive to tho full ex tent t»f 'he difference of distance in her favor, aud to the extent also of the difference between the facilities of plains aud the obstacles of moun tains to the construction of Rail roads. Assu redly not oue of the Atlantic States to the east of Georgia would have dreamad of the gigantic enterprise of surmounting and perforatidg moun tain* at enormous expense with lines of rail road lending to the west, had nature vouchsafed to them so direct and easy ft pathway as that which she has thrown open to Georgia. Will the people and government of Georgia slight so benign and magnificeut at ovenuro-of nature in their favor ? Will they refnse to lend their own concurrence and co-operation to (.fleet n complete fulfilment of the gratd destiny which a partial Providence has put so clearly and easily within tbeir achievement? Are they content that the State* shall forever revolve as a secondary orb, although manifestly entitled by her position and capabilities te assert her claims to the highest aud most 'brilliant sphere ?

Another striking recommendation of the scheme of rail road connections with the Tennessee river, which the committee have sbe ched, is the facility with Ivhich it may, at any future day, be united by a branch with the Louisville^ Cincinnati: and Cliarleston Rail Road at Knoxville. A branch of only an hundred and twen ty or thirty miles in length wonld be necessary for this purpose, and the Legislature of Tennessee, in enact ing the charter of the Cincinnatti and Cliarleston rail road, reserved to itself the right of authorizing such a branch. In the event of this oonnecion with the Cincinnatti and Charleston Road, we should have two openings to the trade of the West—one through the channel of the Tennessee river into the Ohio and Mississippi—the other through that of Cincinnatti and Charleston road. And should this connection with the Cinciuijatti und Charleston road ucver take place, we shall. still have access to the trade of all East Tennessee and a part of North Carolina and Western Virginia, by means of the navigation of tho Tennessee. river and its tributaries, above Ross’ Landing. .. The Road when completed, with the three hraiu-bes. leading to Augusta, Macon and Co lumbus will be led and sustained hy the trans portation of all Western suplies introduced fur tho internal consumption of all Georgia, mii«I Florida—the so u|ber P side of South Carolina, aud tbe Eastern side of Alabama: also by the transportation of all Western commodities seek ing a Fojeign market through the seaports - of Geo gia, To which must be added tbc vast e- mouut of transportation, arising out of tbe iu- tcrual trade of the state—the productions of our noil. and the foreigu merchandize consutuad by our own people. The reveuueof the road wonld lie still further swelled hy the conveying of all foreign goods obtained from or through Georgia for the Western market*-—to which must t e likew ise added the important item of the steam of passengers that would lie continually flon tug along the line* of the road. Tlie commercial towns of Georgia would also become to a very large extent, the medium through which the foreign trade of the wesl would pass, and thus be euah’ed to take their stand as competitors with Njw Orleans, New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, for thegcuer al commerce ol tho west,’... With these great and numerous advantages-- almost equally diffused through every part of the State—profiting alike our agriculture and our commerce—with the certaiuity toe* that the a mount of I ravel and transportation would be suificeint to render the work a safe investment of capit il. the committee see every ground for believing that when the enterprise shall be thor oughly canvased and understood, it will unite the suffrages an' 1 he supported by the geueral co- op-ration ofthe people- ofthe whole State. /’the mode in which the public energies would 'most ad vant.igr-rntsly be directed the accomplish ment ofthe work has occupied the anxious atten tion of the committee. ■ And their opinion ou the best reflections they have been able to bestow, is that weighty reasons concur in making it expe dient that the single trunk of rail Rond, from the Tennessee river to the Cbatt ihoochy, which would he commou in its use to all the three branches aud equal in its benefit to all parts t?T tbe State, ought to he undertaken and construc ted entirely hy the Stalest-tbo public : expene/V The Money Market.—The New York Commercial of} were several failures ou Saturday, there have not been many more. of such heavy aud peculiar adversity. ‘We find the following favorable article in the nal of Commerce : We have reason to believe, that at least some of jthe causes of pressure are about to be removed. The Se cretary of the Treasury has expressed himself ready to arrange the distribution of the public revenue in . any mauner consistent with the law, which shall best sub serve tlie interests of trade, and promote stability in the monied market This disposition he has manifested from tlie beginning. No more drafts will be .issued at present, and some already issued and transmitted to distant places will be countermanded. It devolves on tlie Defiosite Banks here, to point out to tlie Secretary tbe manner by which, in their opinion, tlie objects of the law can be most conveniently accomplished.” The Money Market.—The N. York Express of Mon day says: “There is yet no relief in the money market, and we are sorry to add, that we see no immediate prospect of relief. Our friends abroad can hardly re alize tlie almost unprecedented state of affairs among us. Men who have millions of dollars in property are all but beggars in their money affairs. The South and the West, the West in particular, are calling upon us for our specie, not being able to procure it from tbe Western Banks, and we have not specie enough to do our owu business. Tbe distress and evils among us are not confined to the gamblers, speculators and stock jobbers alone. The whole business community with- . out exception, are suffering. The commercial embar rassment is universal, tbe pecuniary distress is great, and unless something is done, and done quickly, there are a multitude whose families will suffer, and" whose business will be crushed.” The Gazette says: “ We understand that tlie Banks in this city have received an assurance from the proper 3 uarter, that no more specie drafts will he made upon tern. This measure cannot fail to operate beneficial ly npon the mercantile interests, by relieving the mon ey market to a certain extent.” NEW YORK, Oct. 25. Late and Important from Spain.—We ate indebted to Capt. Townsend, of tlie ship Empress, jirrived yes terday morning from Malaga, which port he left on" the 26th tilt, for the following interesting - intelligence. A despatch was received at Malaga on-the 25t!i ult. from Madrid, announcing tlie complete defeiit of tlie Cariist Army, consisting of 14,090 men under the command of General Gomez, (by the Oueen’s General Aliax.) with tbe loss of several hundred killed and three thou sand prisoners. The engagement took place on the 21st September, but the name of the place is not given. We also learn from Capt. Townsend, that the above news was con firmed by an extra Courier from Madrid, who arrived a few hours before the Empress sailed. Great rejoic ings in Malaga on account of the victoiy.
