GREAT WESTERN CANAL.

The commissioners for the Consideration of all matters relative to the inland navigation of the state, met at Albany, on the 20th instant, and, after a session of two days, adjourned to meet in this City on the first Monday in Oct. All the commissioners, except one, attended. And we are happy to learn, that this important subject has been placed in a train which promises a prosperous result. However divided we may be in other respects, in this question, there is and ought to be no party--and we trust, that all hands and all hearts and all heads will unite in promoting the success of a project which will produce more important benefits to the U. States than any which has ever been before contemplated.
