The telegraph gare a brief account of the third day's proceedings of the Memphis Convention, but wo think that the impor? tance of the business transacted demands a fuller account. At the expiration of the morning hour, the Committee on the South ern Pacific Railroad made the following re? port, which was unanimously adopted amid great enthsiasm: Resolved, That in the opinion of this Convention the interests of the whole coun? try, especially those of the Southern States, could be served by a main trunk railroad lino from Sun Diego, Cnlifornin, through Junction River, Colorado, and along tho valley of the Gila, South of the river, to El Paso, on the Rio Grande, and thence to a convenient central point near tho thirty second parallel of latitude East of the Bra? zos River, Texas, from which feeder-roads should lead from St. Louis, Cairo, Memphis, Vicksburg, New Orloaus, and other points, all of which feeder-roads should have equal rights of connection with tho main trunk, while similar feeder-roads from San Fran? cisco, end other points on tho Pacific coast, with like equal rights of connection. Resolocd, That the President of this Con? vention bo requested to forward a copy of this resolution to the President of the United States and to tho vice-President and Speaker of tho House of Representatives, with a request that they present the same to the two houses ot* Congress. The committee, which was composed of representatives from seventeen States, in? cluding three members of Congress, give the following reasons for thc report: First. It is the shortest line connecting the Gulf of Mexico and the Valley of tho Mississipi with tho Pacific coast. Second. It is the line, of all those now unoccupied, of the most easy grades, and permitting of the cheapest construction. Third, lt passes through a less inhospitable and barren country, aud over moro fertile and hospita? ble land than nny other unoccupied routi proposed. Fourth. The linc is touched bj water transportation at three points, afford' iug tho greatest facilities for construction consequently hastening and cheapening such construction. Fifth. The line wil open to tho world the great mineral ro sources of Arizona and Sonora, aud rende: more valuable tho stock-raising districts o Texas, New Mexico and Northern Mexico and thus employ an unrivalled traffic Sixth. It would inevitably attract mimer ous feeders from Mexico, and thus not oui; stimulate enterprise there, but draw to ovi shipping ports n greater portion of the bul lion which now seeks Europe by hazardon conductas and smuggling vessels. Seveutlj It would open a new cotton-growing area i Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, on th lands of the cotton-growing belt now ?seles for the lack of facilities for transportation Eighth. Some of the roads which would b of tho feeders referred to have not cul been projected but are already in netiv course of construction, without waiting fe: Government subsidy or encouragemen Ninth, und last, but not least. The cot struction of this lino moro than all else b< side would encourage what we feel to be tl greatest necessity of tho hour-cmigratio and direct trade with Europe. Tho committee on direct trade with El rope reported in favor of the formation i steamship lines from Southern ports, whic should be encouraged by subscriptioi Tho said lines should bo patronized I planters and merchants of the South, ai approving tho scheme inaugurated betwe? Norfolk and Liverpool at the Norfolk Co vention. Dr. Linsey, of Alabama, presented a nj uority report setting forth tho claims Charleston, New Orleans, Savannah ai Mobile, which olicitod a long debate. -o-? SOUTHERN STATE INDEBTEDNESS AND TI CARI'ET-BAQ LEGISLATURES.-It is demo strablo as a problem in geometry that t credit of our diff?rent State govern mei: should keep paco with tho appreciation thc national credit. Wo do not find this bo tho caso, however, with tho bonds of o Southern States when compared either wi Northern securities or with Governme five-twonties. Tho reason is to bo found tho fact that they aro in tho hands of spec hating Legislatures, who have frittered aw tho little money in tho Stato treasuries, : stead of applying it to thc payment of tereBt. These carpet-baggers have little no interest in the welfare of tho peo] among whom they aro sojourning, furtl than to make tho most money possible ( of thom. If they can get possession of t stock of n railway they issue Stato bot for its aid or relief, and so heap up 1 State indebtedness. Tho past due iuter is left to caro for itself, or is paid by I pawn-brokerage of new bonds. The sect ties of our Southern States aro far bel their real value. Their oppressive, spe luting law-makers sit brooding upon tl: credit and warn away legitimate investme With the advantages which tho whole reg of the South possesses for becom wealthy, not only through its agriculti products of cotton, tobacco and sugar, through its immenso water power uud j nufacturiug facilities, it ought to rival Eastern Statos, and its credit bo as goo< that of Massachusetts. The South is present sufferer from tho corruption thoso who thus control its State govt ments. When these samo men come their turn to Congress and take part in law-making of tho whole country, wo s find them well-trained for tho uudcrtak of gigantic jobs and swindles similar to Pacific Railway and tho whiskey frauds.

Thc B -Roch Office is designed to give us the full benefits of an en? tirely HOME COMPANY, hy investing in the State all the finnis received in it. In fact, it is better than a new company, because tho PIEDMONT is a success already established, with ample capital aud assets. So far, Edgcfield heads the hit, FOUR 1IUN DRED persona having insured in this favorite Southern Companr in the last six months. Abbe? ville numbera little less than TWO HUNDRED. Will not the people of Columbia, and other sec? tions of the Stale, emulate thc example of these two Districts, by coming forward, without delay, and take out policies in this Company, r.nd secure to themselves tho benefits of tho BRANCH OF EH'E, bv having it located at Columbia? The Piedmont has declared a DIVIDEND OE FORTY PER CENT. The dividend could have safely been larger, but with the prudence and cau? tion which has over guided this Company, it has deemed it proper, being the first dividend, to bold a surplus beyond tho reserve fund. In short, tho Piedmont has no superior, and with a BRANCH OFFICE in our midst, there can surely bo no possible excuse to justify a Southern man to commence, or continue, to send bis money off for Life Insurance.
