Starter Wiring

I just replaced my transmission and can't remember the exact wiring hook up to the starter. Can someone post an electrical schematic of the electrical hookup of the starter? I am asking because after I started the car, (I had to boost the battery with a charger), the battery would not charge and after I shut the engine off, nothing would power up when the ignition was turned back on. With a second battery hooked up with jumper cables, the ignition would light everything up, but the engine would barely turn over. It seems like I have a power circuit grounded somewhere. Many years ago, I had a similar problem with my corvette and it ended up being a wire I had grounded that should not have been.

Thanks for your reply. I did connect the main ground wire, but I believe there is a bracket that I connected with the transmission mounting bolt, and then bolted the grounding wire to the bracket. This is the area I am fuzzy on. I would like to see the schematics showing the grounds and where they are attached. There is another going from the firewall to the tranny that is a plug-type connection. Any schematics or pictures would be appreciated.

Problem Solved. I found some wiring schematics and verified all the hook ups. Thanks for everyone's help...
