A convention has lately been j held tnjHdUbo rough, Ip that State, which was the Urgeal'whicb ever convened in the Slate on any 1 subject.

Alton wtwenty mile* shove Sl Imuis, | aad Chester it sixty mile* below, at tbe mouth of; the Kaabukia river, illinoistowo is opposite St Louis on the American bottom, frequently over flowed. The Hillsborough Address stales that Alton aod Chester at* the only two places on tho XtliflOla lido of tbe Mississippi, upon which great town* can be built. Whether this be4rue or not, it m obvious that Ahon, lllinoistown, and Chester, are tbe real rivals for the Mississippi crossing of the great Railroad Line- The Legislature is now in session, aod aome law will doubtless be passed on the subject The Louisville and Cincinnati people are in favor of the'great central road, across tbe State, atari i&g at Vineenncs. PtUshnrgh interests require that Terre Haute shall be the point of crossing the 'Wabash. Wo shall watch the proceedings with great interest.

Tho Koo. R. W.

Ho contended that' such rail road should bo a central and a jjalipnal one; lhat, in order to make It central, three lateral brunches should lie constructed from its eastern terminus—one to reach Memphis, another to rench Chicago, and another Ukjeftrh St. Louis He contended that ibeCoavdtmha should, by their aetjoo, express their preference for such a central road,a»d then leave to Congreu'the performance of their duty; and if they not make such a road, to hold them strictly, responsible at the bar of public opinion. If the! Convention resolved upon thia great project, ami presented totnodefi nito action, there was no danger tube apprehend ed from CoDgrcss; public men always loved tbe people too wdll not to relief tbnir 'will, and such a measure, he eoAlcnded, wou'd bn their will,and concilia)? all >«cirana of the Union.

The amendment being read, the question vaa put “shall it be adopted?" and it was carried by utmost an unanimous tote. (Much applaut-e succeeded.] ' The Honorable Charles Naylor was then call.-., upon to address the Convsntion.
