through a noszle one loch and a quarter in
diameter. The amount of steam carried was
' one hundred pounds.
The new hose recently ordered for the use
of the city were subjeuted to test. They stood
d l
an air pressure of e e hundred and sixty
pounds, and burst at a , moue of one hun
dred end edgily poem .
The nide! the new apparatin was entirely
satisfactory to ail cone mad, and the citizens
may well feel proud I this valuable addi
tion to their Are department.
The Gm. Grant is a first class engine, and
similar in all respects to the Hope, excepting
in a few minor points, where improvements
had. been suggested and adopted. She cost
$3,600. weigha about eight thousand pounds,
made I most beautiful and substantial sped-
Men of workmanship. She is similar , to the
Vigilant, of this city.
r -- .The apparatus is now stored in tie Fourth
ward engine house, corner of Anderson and
• Laceek streets, where she can be inspects d
by thine desirLeg to examine her. Councils
should take immediate steps for procuring a
permanent location, providing hones, and
putting herin readiness for service.
Mr. Wilk P. Kennedy has temporary charge
of the Gen. Grant, as he is a pre-v.lOll engi
neer, with considerable experience in the
management of steam fire engines, the Corn%
retied will no doubt secure his services per
manently.

Mr. Marsh has boon known hitherto In the
literary world es an accomplished philological
writer—one whose especial field of labor was
that diversified and most Interesting one
wherein our own language, like a myriad
rooted, myriad-branching tree of knowledge
and life, has grown and flourished through
many changes and many ages—even if we
truce It no further buck than that memorable
first season of fruitimaring, when Chancer's
genius, racy and rich with joie= of native
flavour, ripened. Traversing tide wide field
as an explorer and critic, Mr. Marsh has re
corded the results of his learned inquiries in
two goodly volumes, which lave given him •
most honorable place in oar literature. ,, But
here ise have another volume—e goodly one
too -companion in she and appearance with
its predecessors, yet taking us far away from
them—taking us into • subject, however, of
the greatest and most general kind of inter
est, and of a very high degree of practical
Also. As he states it himself, the
object of the work is : to indicate the charac
ter and, approximately, the extent of the
changes produced by human action in the
phyeical condition of the globe we ;to
point out the dangers of imprudenceinhabit and the
necessity of caution In all operations which,
on a large soils, interfere with the spontane
ous arrangements of the organic or inorganic
world; to suggest the possibility and
importance of the restoration of &stub
ed harmonies,. and the material im
provement of waste and exhausted regions ;
and, Incidentally, to Illustrate the doctrine
that man is a power of a higher order that:
any of the other forms of animal life which
ore nourished bysnicerre. In the introdnoto
ry chapter of the work he states the general
effects and prospective consequences of hu
man action upon the earth's surface and the
life which peoples It. In the subsequent
cheptors he traces the history of man's in
dustry as exerted upon animal and vegeta
ble life, upon the woods, upon the waters, and
upon the lands. The concluding chapter
considers the probable and possible geo
graphical revolutions yet to be effected by the
art of man. The thoroughness with which
Mr. Marsh has prepared himself to write this
work, will appear from the feat that thelib
llogrephleal list of works consulted for Ii
considerably caned" two hundred volumes.
No inch work on this important and Boost
interesting - department of physical geography
has, we venture to assert, come within the
reach of the general reader, or, we may add,
even of the scientific reader, for • long time.

Having in the 'first and second volumes
given the best waned yet written in the Eng
lish language of the splendid career of Julius
Caesar, Mr. Merivaie has for the theme of his
third volume the rapid succession of stirring
events which followed Caesar's death. With a
molt graphic pen he traces the history of the
conspirators to their fall, and that of theother
great leaders, a. Antonin, and Cicero, whose
mate also overtook them in thellerce struggle
which crushed the opposing factions, and
made way for the elevation of Octavio' to the
supreme power. The early portion of that
brilliant period of Homan history, known to
iamb in all the centuries since as "the Au

which well maintains the high standard of

characteristic of the volatnes already pub-

As the above title intiMates,the author's ob
ject in this volume Is to trace the terriblejudr
moots which have come on the nation to their
legitimate and jut same, and to view, in its
religion, aspect, the sanguinary strife through
which we are now passing. Speaking of It as
bo krrows it, from thirty-twuyears residence
in the South, he describes Slavery as "the most
matured eystem of iniquity and oppression,
that devil, ar wicked men over yet devised."
Throughout the twenty chapters which com
pose his book, he bears his testimony against
the great crime with equal emphasis of ex
prcetion—hla past esperience, his present
contoiotuiness, a wall ea hie ceructence, no
doubt justifying every word of it.

LADIES' NATIONAL COVENANT OZDANIZATION
The Ladies' Hatband Covenant Ornsuiza-
Goa here promises to be a grand affair. Its
organisation seems thorough and comprehen
sive, and efforts will be made to extend its
pledge to bay no Imported goods, save In case
of absolute necessity, till the end of the war
to every locality in the land. If It can be
made stall general, It wpi be almost as ef
fective in putting down gold as a victory on
the Rapidan would be. Such Western women
as Mrs. Senator Lane, Mrs. S. A. Douglas,
Mrs, General Loan, Mrs. Representative
Spaulding and Clay Smith,lirs. /adze
and others are concerned in Ito organization.
The address to the country is understood to
have' been written by Mrs. Ann S. 'Stevens,
the authoress, who Is one of the prominent
leaders to the movement. The following Is
the language of thepledge : "For three years
or far the war, we pledge ourselves to each
other and the country, to purchase no import
ed article of apparel."

In the Senate Mr. Anthony Introduced a

ScILTIL—Mr. Lone, of Menses, introduced
a bill instructing the Military Committee
to inquire into the expediency of reporting a
bill to pay for property taken during the war,
including 'tore property, which wee objected
te and laid over.
The resOlUtion of Mr. Sherman was then
taken no. It is as
That a quorum of the Senate consist of •
mejority of the Senators duly qualified or
chosen; that if a majority of the Prestdential
eleatore duly appointed end qualified vote for

Lives, and the votes of a majority of the States

the United States.
Mr. Davis opposed the resolution at consid
erable length.
The resolution concerning a quorum In the
Senate was passed—yeas, 26; nay., 11.
The report of the Coulereeco Committee on
ilbeblll to establish& Bureau of Military Jus
ties was not agreed to, by a vote of SO to 17.
Mr. Hale, from the Committee on Naval

tion instructing it a Committee en Military

Mr. Wilion oljected and the subject was
laid over.
The resolution of Mr. Sherman came up es
the special order that a quorum of the Senate

Mr. Davis said he did not believe that •
less number than a majority of the whole
number of the Senators representing the
States constitutes a quorum under,the provi
sions of the Constitution. It wan not, In his
opinion, competent for Congress to pass any
measure of legislation without such a quo

Mr. Johnson said there were four Muses in
the Constitution bearing upon this question,
Which removed any doubt that It meant to

and whether the said Garnett had not held a

mended him for the position he now holds in
the Tummy Department.
Mr. Foster suggested that rho resolution be
referred to the Committee now Invoitigating
the affairs of the Treasury Department.
Mr. Farnsworth laid he brotaghtno charg
ed against the 'Treasury Department. He
had no feeling on the subject, but thought
the Inquiry was: proper, as this Osman bed

Mr. Spaulding, of Ohio, hoped the rondo,
[ion would be acted on directly.
Mr. Stevens moved that the resolution be
laid over until to morrow. 'Objectlou being
then made, the resolution was laid over.
, Mr. Farnsworth said he would cement that
the roaolution should bo referred to the Be

Mr. Spaulding objected.

Mr. Voorhees obtained unanimous consent
to make • statement.
Mr. Voorhees said that two gentlemen of
his State had- been cruelly wronged ant
outraged, and he expressed the hope that the
lots of . the case would afford • lesson of
decency and justice for the future. The gen
tleman from Ohio, Mr. Garfield, had chosen
his (Vootheme)dlitrict for JIM assault on two
of his - pummel and political friends who are
thus made the victims of party malice. Atthe
time the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Garfield)
brought forward what be claimed true cordon'
of letters from Judge Roklas and' John G.
Davis, .addresied to General Breckenridge;
recommending a young man named Rankin
f rapoettinalntherebelarmy, Mr. Voorhees
denounced the letters as levities. The
gentlemen from Ohio, Mr.' Garfield, said be
would produce the letters but did not. , Mr.
Voorhees called upon him (Mr. Oar

did not meet the bold and defiant , promise
of Mr. :Garfield, who should either have

Mr. Toothees,in otokoinsion, said that he had
proied beyond the posaibility of doubt that
Rankin forged the letters and had left twit-
names of the forgery. This whole matter was
without a parallel for atrocity. Judge Eckel,
had no hope for tho restoration of the liberty
or peace of the country while the Republican
party remained in power, and in this he
(Mr. Voorhees) was that gentleman's true re-
presentative. kir. Davis formerly represented
the Terre Haute diatriot, and was no stronger
here. All who had served with him would
boar willing testimony to his high Integrity
and patriotic , bearing.
Mr. Garfield, of Ohio, maid he had not heard
that /edge Eckel, denied the genuineness of
the !attire attributed to him until this morn-
rots In presenting the copies of letters, he
(Ur. Garfield) did not pretocd that it trail
uch evidence as woe atinilesable in a mart of
mike. The lettere wore put Into the heads
. .
of the chief of police in Nashville, and the
person doing to eertifled under oath 04 to
their geaulneneal. They were rretented to
the General In-Chief and himself (Garfield.)
Indians rakers were consultrd open the lob-
Jett, and they came to the C01:10131A011 almost
unanimously that the letters vac generic,
Ete (OuSald) bad submitted accordingly
traced copies which were read to this noose.
The answer made by General Voorhees was
printed paper published in Indiana, which
llu all the evidenoe on which the Rouse was
. .
to believe that the letters were forged In that
State. It was not reasonable to believe that
be would attempt to present forged paper' to
ace who knew the signature. This was strong
moral eridence, and he would not hare dared
to go with these letters unless he knew the
character of the men who were emerge to the
war and Its continuance. He (Hatfield) had
not, in producing the copies of the lettere,
contemplated a deliberate attack. He only
wished to mty that throughout the Army of
the Cumberland these two gentlethen were
believed to be In sympathy and correspond
ence with the South. General aosecrans ex-
pressed his full belief in the genuineness of
the letters. The evidence coning through the
newspaper press was not conclusive to
his mind that the letters referred to wore gen-
nine. Re wanted the original affidavits, and
if convinced that they were forgeries, no
pride of opinion would exolude a retraction.
fir. Voorhees said he thought the gentlemen
would be prompt to retreat his statement, es
pecially after their recent private convene•
tlon. If the gentleman was not convinced
that the letter;swere forgeries, he was the only
exception. Be called upon Mr. Robinson, who
meld that the hand-writing exhibited by the
copy, wu not that of Mr. Darts.
Mr. Voorhees then called upon Judge Mel-
man to speak as to the 'tending of Judge
Rakeis, but Judge Holman had few momenta
pi Delano left the hall. He would now bid
tarewell for a time to the subject. He had
been greatly disappointed at the course which
the gentleman from 011lio bad pursued. lie
apprehended that the Llonso, the country and
the press DOW believed these letters were
palpable forgeries. Hereafter whenever the
gentleman or any ono else holds up this bold,
criminal cad detestable forgery as genuine
ho would regard him as wearing the brand of
forgery and slander himself.
The House resumed the consideration yf
the bill guaranteeing a Republican goverh.
ment to the rebellious States.
Mr. Cox. of Ohio, commenced his epeeeh by
raying 'llly heart's desire end prayer to God
sun for peso. in thb distressed land. While
urgicg individual or Increased exertions

wounds and check the ravages of war by all
rational method. used among civilized na
tions. To those who can entertain bat one
idea at a time, this position has seemed ineon-
ststent, but to those who have read history It
will appear that to check the strife and restore
bail:cony in civil or internal conflict, negotia
tion and friendlliess , are indispensable.
We bad mournfully, though mints:My,
both by versa and voles, uphold that the
sword wai even a worse alternative to
eternal separation,
and prolonged strife should
be our,fate. The miseries which this war has
entailed bas not been the work of the North-
ern Democrats; and If disunion comes
through the open &ion of 7imus—if the re
cognition of Southern Independence comes
through war or Its disasters, the Democrats
are not responsible for the odium, and .with

nesty Proclamation was isstied, but we see no
signs of the return of Southern citisene

ded the rebellion is now more formidable.
Unlike the sets of grace granted by kings to
their recreant subjects, then is no general
taking of the oath, no genuine movement
toward the restoration of the seceded States,
but a fierce spirit of resistance, produced by
the unwise and exasperating policy of the
Executive. There is ono chief defect in the
President's plan and in the struoture bum up.
on his proclamation of emancipation. the
same defect Is observable in the bill of the
gentleman from Maryland, Mr. Davis. That,
too, is hued] on the one-tenth system policy

Mr. g o . opposing it, denied, first, that

They shill abolish slavery. Then the other
steps are to be taken, and the new Republican
