. jr RESULTS OF THE COMltf aROJAT? OONVEN ;Tiok.-Tho National Commercial Con? vention, which-commenced its sessions f lili thia j city on Monday. Inst, adjourned ! i yesterday afternoon. Th? occasion ' has' ' boon one of great interest, socially and .j industrially. To suppose, however,.that ] tho former has been its chief character? istic would beta great mistake. Wo can? not conceive that leading representative' -' commercial mun, from all looalitie'j pf a1 great'country like this, eau meet-to* gotherand-interchange viows.npon oom mer?ialand other material interesta, with? out Buying and doing something of prac? tical importance. Such meu cannot pos .. sibly come together without collecting . facts and suggesting arguments of the greatest value to tho country, and wbioh no mere politicians could possibly pf o po.Ve. It would bo as idle to say that a convention of experts in any other pro? fession could 'ba held, .who would Bay dothing .which would enlighten the pub lie, in regard :t<3' that which- they' have i mud?--thejr, special study, j No 'one can reiul-?ho prQOoodih'gfl of the convoution ihicu.baS' jutit adjourned without being ?tistied..that it wus a practical, business J dy,-; aud .without hoing' struck with irpr?G?i-lat tbo range and Compretten von?flr'of it^ subjects, as well as ite uly Amerib^n,, spirit. Whatever con? tres the. needs df commerce and inter ii communication, tho" general material mditibp, thO amelioratioh of burdens, id tho removal, of obstacles from thc iterprise of tho people, have been ob ou sly familiar1 subjects of study tc any of the able men of this assembly, f hilo various strong epeoohes have beer ade during the. session,..little or nc me has been consumed iu debate. Th? aB?Uess has been well laid'out, and pro ?odfed ' with ' sy s t oma t i o al 1 y. Many important' subjects have'? beer J ted upon, with thoviuWofbringiuf. iem to the attention of Congress, th? tates, and the people. ' The jreport o io committee'on railroads, after an in )ros ti n g debate relative-to the a ppr o xi lati?os of local, and 'through freights1 as adopted!. : The committee expressed ie opini?n that a very decided dirai nu on of the disproportion between thi >oal and thro ugh freights- oould be ef ;oted without injury to the interests o lilroads, while it would greatly promoti ie general convenience. The report o ie committee'?IBO recommends a libera pirit between. States ? in - granting reoi rooal Vights Of way; the desirability o u air-Hno from Oinoinnnti to Chatta ooga, Und also .bf .a railroad ohain fron be Atlantiq tp tho Paoifio, lying entirel; louth of the Central j Paoiflo. With re 3renoe to narrow-gaOge railroads, th ommittee felt reluctant to express a dc ided opinion for or j against a systec dioso merits Or demerits do not as yo Bern, in their judgment, to he nacer ained by the only infallible test of prac tical uae. At th;e some time, the oommil tee consider that e?bugh is known of th working of nrtrVow-gauge railroads ii Wale?, Switzerland, and. other countries to justify the state^eiii that- their dimi nished cost pf construction and opera! ing, and increased facility of ovorcomin heavy gradea and accomplishing sharpe curves, offer to marty sections of ou oountry great inducements for con strut tion, especially for the convenience c local tratho and the bringing into rai road oonnootion section a of. the co on tr ? where the .physical geography rendel H wide gauge impracticable. A The Convention took important actio SalBO on the subject of interior lines < ?water communication, among which is Streut project which nearly concerns Ba Kitnore, a ship canal between the Ohes Bpeake and Delaware . Bays, in lengt Bhirty-two miles, ? including some tc Bailes of river, wbioh will reduce the di HLnae to European porta 183 miles. Bnemorial to Congress- requeatiug a BU Hey, and, if found valuable to the int Bests of the oountry, that the canal shi BJe constructed, waa recommended.

Bo regard to finances^ the Conver Bommorided nit. early return to B\ Kmeqts: ? gradual pay mont of pnblio debt; equal and fair levying and collection of taxation;, pronounced pro? hibitory duties not to the interest of the nation; advocated aniform tax on manu? factured tobacco, and reduct i ou of the present tax; abolition of the income tax; snob arrangement of regulations respect? ing the whiskey tax as to sorely oolleot it without embarrassment to thai industry. A resolution was adopted, also, asking the refunding of the cotton tax, as well as the'taxes paid on coal, iron, oil and other articles. The other ohief measures adopted were as follows: A report of tho ..Com? mittee on Navigation relative' to Ameri? can ship-building, protesting against local.rates on ships and cargoes as op? pressive in many ports, and asking Con? gress to pass a law applying to all ports equally and fairly; especially complain? ing of quarantine exactions at the port of New York; asking that rates of pilot? age should be equal and fixed, exoept.in oases of great danger; recommending the establishment of seamen's homes; approving of the views of Secretary Robeson in reference to the establish? ment of ship-yards for. building iron vessels. A report of the Committee on Foreign Commerce, recommending sub? sidizing American steamship linea to Central and South America and Mexico; also, declaring the present ouBtoms sys? tem no longer adapted to the require? ments of the nation's commerce, and ask the adoption of a tariff suited to its present condition. A report of the Committee on the Mineral and'Mining Interest, recommending complete geo? logical and mineralogical surveys of all the States and Territories of the Union, by Government authority, and asking the enactment of stringent legislation to prevent accidents to miners. A report on State inspections, recommending either the total abolition or proper amendment of all State inspection laws, whioh are declared inimical to tho pro? per pursuit pf trade. Also, recommend? ing the passage of State laws for the in? spection of stationary boilers on land, and referring the subject of general pilot laws to the next session of the convention, in order to allow the Vir? ginia delegation to more fully present their grievances. There was u resolution adopted also, from a special committee, asking Congress to pass a general amnesty law, as was done by the previous convention. How far some of 'the measures recommended may transcend political ideas heretofore favored by many, will be a subject of inquiry, but there cannot be a doubt that generally the body has been entirely national in its tone, in keeping with its title. One of the final measures adopted was the appointment of a special committee to memorialize Congress in regard to building new or purchasing - tho present telegraphic lines of the country-the propriety of which there is certainly much reason to' question. Considerable unfinished business was referred to a committee, whioh was appointed to-take charge of it, and report to tho next con? vention. It was a matter of regret that the North had so small a representation in the convention. What there wai of it was good, and our neighboring State of Pennsylvania was ably represented. We do not like to assume that the I North, feeling secure in its present com- ! meroial ascendency, and possessing such controlling influence as to secure its own demands, does not feel a very lively interest in measures for national commercial development. The conven' tion has shown, by its comprehensive, labora, and in its rising above all parties, an example which Congress might ad? vantageously imitate, and its renewed recommendation for general amnesty evinces a wise appreciation of . that! which is just in itself, and has also a I practical bearing upon tho welfare and 1 prosperity of the country.
