THE FRIENDSHIP STEAM FIRE Eisioisn.
—The following detailed description of the
new Friendship steamer will be of interest
to our readers:
The boiler Is richly cased with silver and
princess metal, and contains two hundred
and sixty-five copper flues, Ou the rear ot
the boiler, in largo letters, is the word
"Friendship" and the figure "2," and on
the right hand side are the steam gunge
and the water gouge. The pump and cylin
der are vertical, supported by four iron
columns and frame. The cylinder is also
cased with silver and princess metal, and is
by 71 Inch stroke; the pump, 11 by 71
Inches. The tool box, in front of the air
chamber, is a ve,ify complete arrangement,
and adds to the beauty of the steamer. On
the top of the cylinder is a large signal
lantern, contahnog, in cut glass, the word
" Friendship " and the figure "2" on each
of the sides, and In front, the motto of the
company, " We aim to be useful," under
neath which there is a pair of clasped hands,
and in the rear, the year of the organization
of the company, " 1763.•"l'here are two
silver side lights on the boiler, which, when
' lit up, reflect light over the whole steamer.
The wheels'striped with gold, red and blue
are made of the best of hickory, and look
very strong and durable. flu the right
side of the steamer there lire twenty feet of
suction hose, so arranged that they can be
attached to a stream lit water in a few Sec
ends. Oil trial the other day at (lraefFs
Landing she raised steam and was at work
in six minutes from the time the match wits
applied. In a short time she worked up
to 140 pounds steam, and 220 pounds water
pressure, and was playing a steady stream
of 227 feet through 100 feet of hone, when
several rivets were forced out of the hose,
and she ceased playing. When wo consider
the fact that the machinery is yet very new
and the weather very cold, we think this
playing hard to beat. The Friendship is
one of the most active and efficient fire
companies in our city, and we are pleased
to learn that their new and beautiful
steamer gives entire satisfaction to the
company. It was built by Wm. It. Jef
fers, at Pawtucket, F.. 1., and arrived here
in charge of Joseph It. Gilbert of that city.
Weconslder it one of the finest pieces of
workmanship of the kind we have ever
seen, and have no doubt that it will prove
as efficient as it is beautiful.

SENATE.—The Senate met at 12 o'clock,
noon. - The President protern. Mr... Forger,
in the Chair.
Theehair laid before the Senate'n com
munication from the Secretary of theTreas
my transmitting the bill and report pre
pared by COmmiseloner Welles.
On motion of Mr. Fessenden the bill and
report were referred to the Finance iCom
mittee, and two thousand copies of the bill
were ordered to be printed.
Mr. Chandler, Mich., presented a protest
against and curtailment of the National
Currency. Referred to the Finance Coin
"[tittles..
Mr. Sumner, Massachusetts introduced
a resolution, directing the Judiciary Com
mittee Co inquire if legislation on the Con
stitutional Admendment is necessary; to
prevent the sale „,of persons into slavery
for a term of years, as punishment for
crime.
Mr. Sumner, in presenting the above,
called attention to the cases which had re
cently come under his observation. in
which colored persons had been sold by
order of the Criminal Courts in Maryland.
It seemed to him that Congress ought to
have the opinion of the Judiciary Commit
tee as to the right of States to inflict such
punishment at the time the Constitutional
Amendment was adopted. lie (Mr. Sum
ner) objected to the language used in it, in
which the words "except as a punishment
for crime" were inserted. He did not know
whether the Civil Rights bill covered the
subject. lie would like to have the opinion
of the Judiciary Committee.
Mr. Saulsbury said the advertisements
referred to by Mr. Sumner were copies of
what frequently appeared in Massachusetts
papers some time ago. The Legislature of
Maryland had not been in session since the
passage of the Civil Rights bill, and had
therefore had no opportunity to change the
laws of that Stale.
Mr. Johnson said he had no objection to
the reference of the resolution of Mr. Sum•
ner. The purpose he had proposed would
be accomplished, be thought, more speedily
by the courts. The Judge who ordered the
sale referred to had been arrested under the
civil rights bill, and the case would soon
be tried and probably carried to the Su
preme Court Ile believed that there was
710 State in the Union in which there was
more opposition to slavery on account of
color than Maryland.
Mr. Fessenden asked if the law under
which criminals were sold in Maryland ap
plied to white men also.
Mr. Cresswell, Md., said it did not.
Mr. Johnson said if there was a differ
ence in the punishment between whites and
blacks, it would be settled under the Civil
Rights bill.
Mr. Cresswell said the amendment abol
ishing slavery covered the whole case. The
words except as a punishment liar crime,
never meant to give the right to sell crimi
nals into slavery.
The proper enforcement of the amend
ment would abolish all such sulesof persons.
Ile would not agree with his colleague as
to the eradication of the spirit of slavery
from the State of Maryland. Perhaps Mr.
Johnson was right, that could be ascertain
ed when it was seen what the Legislature
Just convened would do to abolish the black
I laws, of which the Mlles referred to were but
the spirit.
M r. Sumllol . [ . ..slimed the floor and spoke
in favor of his 11,101111 ion, which was then
adopted.
Mr. Sherman, I Alio, presented the unano•
riot of Gen. Grant and other officers, asking
for en addition to their present pay, end
that retired officers be allowed the longevity
ration. Referred to the Military Committee.
air. Wilson, Mass., pre'sented the petition
or the officers ~r liar :11'111V Jul .111 l'11:+0 of
pay. Referred to the Military Committee.
Mr. Sherman piestatted n petition against
Increased duty on railroad iron. Referred

Mr, Cragin, N. 11., introduced u bill in
relation to ill • appointment of Register of
Wills and I{lWOrckr of Deeds for:the County
of Weshingtou, Distrint of Columbia, which
vests such appointments In the Supreme
Court a the District of Columbia end re
peals con Meting laws. He also introduced
a 1)111 vesting the appointment of U. S.
Marshall at' the' District in the MRICIO Court.

referred to by Mr. 811..1111W' were person
idly Interested ill leasing and hating to the
Government the houses ocoupied by the
army, lie hoped the resolution would be
adopted.
Mr. Trumbull, Illinois, thought the reso
lution, as It related to officers of the army,
ought to be referred to the Military Com
'
mittee or an it related to Indians, it ought
to go to the Committee on Indian Affairs
It more properly belonged to either of these
than to the Judiciary Committee. By com
mon consent the resolution was changed to
make the inquiry by the Military Com
mittee, and so adopted.
The Nebraska bill was taken up, and
made the special onler for Monday next.
The resolution to print the report of the
Commissioner of Agriculture In several
languages for the I Exposition was
adopted. The bill to repeol the amnesty
clause of the confiscation law was called up,
but laid over until to-morrow. The bill to
prevent and punish fraudulent representa
tions or inducing the emigration of negroes
and mulattoes from the country was called
up, but the Senate adjourned without Ink
ing action.

a quorum present, the Journal of the 22nd

The Speaker presented a communication
front the Secretary of the Treasury, trans
mitting the report front David A. Wells,
Special Commissioner of Revenue, with
the tariff bill prepared by him as a substi
tute for the custom laws now in force, stat
ing that the opinions and conclusions of
\Veils, with very slight exceptions, met
with Ins, the Secretary's, hearty approval,
and commending the report and bill to the
careful consideration of Congress. Referred
to the Committee on Ways and Means.
Mr. Stevens, Pa., from the Committee on
Aappropriati n, reported the Military
Academy Appropriation Bill. Referred to
the Committee on the Wholo State of the
Union, and made a special order for Mon
day next.
On motion of Mr. Washburne, Ill„ the
Secretary o, the Treasvry was directed to
communicate to the House the results of the
investigation made by his Department into
the cause of the loss of the steamer Evening
Star, and was also directed to institute an
inquiry into the causes of the loss of the
steamer Commodore in Long Island Sound,
and to report what legislation is necessary
fur the protection of the lives of passengers
on steam vessuis.
Mr. Wentworth, Illinois, asked leave to
offer the following resolution:
Redoloed, That the Committee upon the
J 'Mich* ry be Instructed to report what
measures, irony, can be taken to prevent
the Supreme Court from releasing and dis
charging, the asvashis of Mr. Lincoln and
the conNianitors tvhu released the rebel
prisoners at Camp Douglas, in Chicago,
under the color and pretense of the law of
and also to inquire Into the expediency
uf repealing the said law.

It'
Mr. Trumbull, 111., hoed that the bill
indicated by Mr. Edmunds would not be
taken up until the bill to repeal the Presi
dent's amnesty power was disposed of. Mr.
Edmunds' bill would take some time while
Mr. Trumbull's could soon be disposed of.
The bill submitted by Mr. Trumbull was
taken Up.
The pending question was upon Mr. Seals •
bury s amendment to repeal the entire con
flscation bill instead of the lath section of
it.
Mr. Johnson, Md., being entitled to the
floor, addressed the Senate in this manner :
If it is the opinion of the friends of this
measure that the section proposed to be re
pealed gave no additional power to the
President, and was consequently void,
ho shou ld not trouble the Senate
with any more remarks on the subject;
but he understood it to be claimed that
the section was operative,• and that it did
give to the President more power than he
had under the Constitution. He proposed
first, to examine the constitutional question,
and secondly, assuming the question to be
decided, as he supposed the friends of the
pending measuie were willing that it should
be decided, he would examine into the ex
pediency of adopting such a measure at the
present time. When the subject was before
the Senate prior to the recess he, Mr. John
son, asked Mr. Trumbull, the chairman of
the Judiciary Committee, if he proposed to
repeal the section on the ground that it gave
power to the President which he bad
not before, or whether be supposed
it was within the authority of Congress to
take from the President any power which
is conferred upon him in the premises by
the Constitution, to the latter question lie
of course answered in the negative. He told
us, and correctly that the power to pardon
rested in the President by the Constitution
and cannot by legislation be taken away
from him, and for thesaine reason I have no
doubt he would admit that it cannot be limit
ed or qualified. It is vested in him alone in '
his official capacity as President. The Senate
were not to be told that in the deliberations
of the convention by which the constitution
was formed, this particular clause was the
subject of some contrariety of opinion.—
Some of the members of the convention de
nied that the power to pardon existed at all
and most of them did think it should exist,
contrary to the opinion of Montesquiu and
other European writers, that the power
should not exist in a Republic because
there was no necessity for it.

that the original understanding was that

and moved the previous question.
Resolved, That for the purpose of securing

of the Republic during the late war, waged
by rebels and traitors against the life of the
nation, and of giving effect to the will of
the people, as expressed at the polls during
the recent elections by majorities number
ing in the aggregate more than 400,000 votes,
it is the imperative duty of the 39th Con
gress to take, without delay, such action
as will accomplish the following objects:
First, The impeachment of the officer
now exercising the functions
_pertaining to
the office of President of the United States
of America, and his removal from said
office on his conviction, in due form of law
of the high , crimes and misdemeanors of
which he Is manfestly and notoriously
guilty, and which renderit unsafe longer to
permit him to exercise the powers he has
unlawfully assumed ,• and, secondly, to
provide for the fitithtbil and efficient ad
ministraton of the Executive Department
of the Government within the limits pre
sented by law. Thirdly, To provide effec
tive means for immediately reconstructing
civil governments in those States lately in

storing them to their practical relations
with the Government on the basis of loyalty
and justice, and to that end.
Fourth. To secure by the direct interven
tion of Federal authority the right of fran
chise alike, without regard to color to all
classes of loyal citizens residing within those
sections of the republic which were lately
In rebellion. The resolution created great
excitement on the Republican side, and the
question of order being raised by Mr. Hill,
the Speaker decided that, as part of the
resolution referred to reconstruction, it
must go to the Committee on Reconstruc
tion.
Immediately afterward Mr. Kelee again
offered the resolution, omitting paragraph
3 and 4.

of the journal the Secretary of the Senate
delivered a message announcing the pas
sage of the District Negro Suffrage bill

at the Annual Meeting Of the Aterabilrs.___.On

occurred du ring will appear that a liinaitter Area

of them the loss was comparatively small and •
none of them Involving a heavy aelemet, yet,
the aggregate Mote up a considerable sum. ex,
ceedlng What was anticipated and provided !Or
by the rendering a tax : inevitable,
the commen cement of the ensuing year,
The first fire to which the attention or Ile Di
rectors was called during the present year. had
actually occurred at the close of the previous
year, but was unknown to the Directors at the
time ol making this report, It happened at
the Fut mice of chri titian el. Kauffman In West
Elemplield township, and Waft occas ioned by
an explosion by which are was communicated
to part of the building, but which was soon
suppressed, and but little logs sustained there.
by. Mr. Kauffman'm lon by the explosion was
very serious, but for that the Company Woe
not liable, and made no compensation. At a
meeting of the Directors, subsequent to the
above•mentiOned fire, they resolved to levy a
tax of fifty cents on the hundred dollars valu
ation; but befor the Secretary had completeu the
duplicates, another the occurred in tne Dwells
ing House or John N. ki.ububsiker, also Di
West Heinpfleld township, deattoying the
building entirely. 'rue Directors then, in an
ticipation of further losses during tee season,
directed the lax to be increased to one dollar
on every thousand d 'liars valuation. Several
=all tires occurred du ing the summer and
fall, but the Directors still hoped that the tax
levied would be adequate to compensate the
losses during tae your. In this expectation,
however, they have been diaappoin,ed, since
the first of October a Series ut fires have oo
eurred, occasioning more loss to tie Company,
than all the previous tires of the season. Three
Barns within a radius of three miles, Lave
been defile° ed by fire within the last throe
months, all of which were insured by the
Farmers' Mutual Inatitatleo LOMpauy, and the
worst feature in those distaste. s Is teat they
are all supposed to have been purposely set ou
Lire; at all events, the origin t f toe fires can
not be accounted for, upon any other suppo
sition. No. Mug has let transplo ed calculated
to Lead tp a discovery of the perpettutors of
these heartless and wicked . eta, and whether
they have b. en committed by some one !Innen
who Infests the neignuortitxxl or by severs/
acting in concert lu executing their nefarious
purposes, or by what 'motives of Impulses he
or they are actuated in thus making war upon
Lae community by destroying tbelr property,
Is at present an unsolved mystery and pi oba
bly will remain so.
It is sometimes suspected that buildings are
fired to conceal robberies previously effected.
but In the two last and largest ut the above
series of fires—lies,' and fly !fu's Durum-110
Me broke out lu broad day light, the one near
noon and thee tier in the afternoon, so that
uo opportunity was afforded Locum , away any
plunder without great Lazard el being de
tected.
In every case acted upon during the past
year, the Direct re have paid three units of
the actual ,ose rep,ateu by the appraisers, and
In ell except our, the retort of the al midgets
was equal tot e utueuw. eh the who
ngs destroyed hail been Maur ; the apprais
ers being satisfied that the actual loss was
greater than the valuation at which the build
ings had been entered.
in one indauce, tit ft of Valentine Becker's
Stable, the appraiser it considered the valuation
too high, and, after examining a number of
witnesses, and obtaining all tile information
they could, estimated the value of the build
ing at and the value of toe contents at
575 ; the build lug had been entered at Mee, and
tile contents at aka), thus showing that In oases
of over valuation Uy the owner, they would
protect the hawse La of ale company by a prop
er exercise a their Judgment. !fir. Decker was
convinced that he had made a mistake In en
tering his property tau high, and accepted
three-fourths of the amount, awarded by the
appraisers withou t further trouble. In older
to meet, the .bullies of the Company, as
promptly as pus •Ible, the Directors have in
trusted the Secretary to levy it Lux of one-tenth
of one per emit, or One dollar un every ono
