--
SENATE.
Mr. Skerman called up tne following 'resolution:
Thal a qtiOrntri of the Senate hereafter consist of a
majority of the Senators present duly qualified.
Mr. Sherman said the House had- decided that a
majority of those chosen constituted a quorum, and
We should'pass a similar rule. It was never in
tended that this Government should be broken up,
either by open secession or for want of a quorum.
'We had yesterday an example of the evil effect of
the present rule, when at five o'ellick, just as an
importai. t bill was about to pass, the Senate found
atself without a quorum.
Mr. Foster opposed the resohition, as there would
be mere'difilculty in finding a quorum then than
now. The more the respoasitality was divided the
.less itWas felt.
Mr/DaVis considered this the most important
subject ever presented to' the Senate, and he hoped,
in order to - allow it to be fully discussed, that it
would be made the special order forja-morrow.at.
Mr. Anthony introduced 'a bill to expedite and
regulate. the.printing of public documents, 'which
Was referred to ttie Committee on .Printing.- It re
quires the =accompanying slocuments of Depart- .
went reports to - go to the Joint Committee on Print
ing to be edited, and Portions selected'desirable for
popular distrikution, and issued with reports from
the Presioent'S Message in one volume. It also
provides' for the sale of extra documentisat cost
The'joint resolution to - pay the State of Wiscon- -
sin five per,ceift. of,the land sales within her bor. -
tiers came up. ' - • - '
Mr.:Fessenden addressed the Senate in oppose-'
Q tiort thereto until the close of the morning hour.
' The: Senate then resumed the consideration of
the bill appropriating twenty-five million dollars .
for the-pay of one hundred day volunteers.
Mr.
- _Hale, it ...deference -to the feelings of'ails
friends' the Chairmen Of the Committees, of Finance
and of Military Affairs, who, with him,. seemed to
consider the measure unwisey'yet necessary
present emergency, would wiive his objecrtions,
and, perhaps, vote for the bill.
The billaiva.s then passed.

HOUSE OZREPREGENTATIVES.
Mr. Stevens (Pa.) reported ffom the Committee
on 'Ways and Means the Senate amendments to the.'
Navy a ppropriation illizand the House concurred
in those appropria,ing seven minions two hun
dred thousand for - the completion of sixteen screw
steam :loops, four millions for the purchase and
repair of vessels for the Wesiern r- waters, and three
millions for the purchase and charter of : vessels for
blockading purposes.
The Senate struck out the appropriation of a
hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars for as
purchase of the land adjoining the Charlestown
navy yard,-^and.on this amendment, ate Committee
on W ayannii. Means recommended a non-concur
rence.
11Ir. Holman (Ind.) moved,the, reduction of the
appropriation to sixty thousand dollars, showing
that tnis was the value - of - the property last
autumn.
Dlr. Stevensekplalned - the circumstances -under!
which this suttee. came before the:Uordmittee on
Ways and Dleans. The approulation..was recom
mencied by'allthe coinniaiaciants-whe had been at
the yard: by Admiral Smith, Maar of the finnan
of Yards suds. Docks, . and by . Secretary Welles,'
who all cYrisider the, pnrct ase necessary for the
government uses.
Mr. Rice (Mass.) showed that the enlargement
of the Charlestown navy yard had become net‘s.
nary by the large incrAve of the navy.
The debate was continued-those who. 'op,possd
the app.: opriation regarding it as a apeculation..' '
The Souse concurr3d in the Sanate' samendment
—yeas 56, nays 38; and also concurred in the
senate amendment, providing that no money ap
nropi iated for the Naval Academy shall be applied
!or the support of any minehipman viho shall not
hereafter be appointed in strict conformity with the
law.
The Souse considered Senate amendment, pro
Tiding that the Naval Academy shall he returned
and re-eetablished at Annapolis , before the com
mencement of the next academic Tear. ' • --
Mr. i ixon ) said' that on the breaking out
of the rebellion the Academy was removed to New
port by the Secretary of the Nary. The same an.
thorny which ,_removed it can restore it. .Thil
academ c year 'will comMence September 1865 1
and.if occasion Should occur for its removal before
that time,' it would, doubtless, be done Besides,
the Naval Academy proper . 4 at Annapolis was oc
cupied by the 'War Department, which, had,
declined to surrender it. -
Mr. Stk VenS (Pa.) _ said that Nevrpirt it a large
and fashionable place ;local; with all its vices, IS
10 fit place fora younk man. It was always
better to have seminaries of learning in small
villageF, where there ate few templations to vice.
Annapolis's a &Mall village, and just - abont the
right size. By r,tuming to-Annapolis the govern
ment will save seventy-five or a hundred
theusand dollars.
The Senate amendment was-concurred in. , -
The rue resumed_the considerat en of the bill
2,, , , , naranteeing a republican government to States
aubV,tried or overthrown by the rebellion.
Mr. 2erham (Me. ) prefaced his remarks by say.
ing that all our efforts should be directed to the
auppres,ion of the rebelhon. _ He. repelled the
slander that_this id exclusively, an abolition war,
and that it was a haihsh crnsade. lusters:l , orthe
party in po - xer being responsible for the war, it
was that psrty which had control of the Govern
ment for sixty years. The Democratic party had
clothed itsel: with everlasting disgrace by concur-
Tin g with President Bdchanan's declaration, and
-acting upon it, that no power to coerce - States has
been delegated to Congress or to any department
Of the Feckral Government.,....
.
_ -
There never Was amore disgraceful record than
that made by the, leaders ofttlie Democratic party
during tho last four years. The rebellion was in
augurated under a Democratic Administration,
- with Ls patronage aryl. conseni3 stimulated and
-encouraged - 43y the pronatserofthe aid of Northern
Democrats, and now kept alive in the hope that
the Berne party - come to its assistance. The
course of 'Demodrit% here was doing more for the
rebellion. than our defeats on the battle=field.
While theyleld President - Lincoln to a strict ac
count; and charged hint -with violations .of the
+Constitution; they have no complaints to utter
against the rebels who. set Constitution at de
fiance. They want to render him powerless to
punish traitors. In conclusion; N.r. Perham sild
slavery must cease with the - last struggles of the
rebellion.

. • .
.1 4 1 fr. Iternan • (N. Y.) examined the provisions of
the bill under consideration, and opposed it be
cause. according Wills judgmeirt, it'was in "viola
tion and subversive- of the great 'fundamental prin.
ciples on which the General and State Govern-
- - - - •
ments stand. The people could, according , to the
b , ll, enjoy civil and domestic institutions only on
the three conditions named,lhus trampling under
foot all the powers of the States. ' The Federal
Goveri meat has no right to interfere with the
- peep ein changing their constitution and making
their laws. We_ camTdo nothing more than to
guarantee a republican Government in accord
ance with the Constitution. - Tlebelieved the effect
-of the bill would be to crush out the loyal men in
those States, and stimulate them to resistance. It
was an inversion of the powers of the people 'of a
State which are inherent, and of which they can
not lawfully be deprived.
Gentlemen should not, while seeking to preserve
the government, be influenced by feeling and pre
judices. The question is not how much the,South
have sinned but what is vriseandbestfor a happy
and peaceful Union for both North Ind South, for
histoly tells as if-we :disregard:the Constitution,
which is the,great bond. which-holds the Union to
gether, we will not only' trample, upon tturrights
-of States, but destroy ourown,libertles. -We win'
not save and restore the people of the land under
the government by trampling on the guarantees of
Constitution. Drive out, the usurpers, and the
people will take care of their own States. —
The name of Samuel J. Randall, of Perinaylva
nia., - was erroneously printed in 'favor of, instead
of against, the bill equalizing the pay or colored
troops and placing them cm - the'samefooting.With
white soldiers.
Leonard layers (Pa.) asked and. obtained +leave
to record his vote in favor of the same measure.

examined this bill and-tbe 'speech of theohairman

a - unciated by the gentleman from Maryland,

Or the country, ' the - States ' remin. He pro
ceeded to notice, Mr. Schenck' s.former-remarks,
Who lfati'charged that•he had recommended'the se! ,
_cession of New York. To this he replied that he
• did, on the first clay of January, IE-Gl, in advance
1 CtT any secession by any State, in a special message
to the Common Oouncil, resorimend that, if the
repeated wrongs and outrages of he State Legis
lature should be repeated.orktbe nit ,that it shOuld
become a free-city; not, however,') dependent - of
k
the 'Federal Government , Another charge was,
that, he had:As:lade tto speech at the great Haien
meeting, in April. lilt, and there declared him
self, to be a War Democrat, and the gentleman
added he spoke by his - side-on the platform, and
-said, you may call it an honor; or a dishonor, if
you will. His participation, however, was "con
fined •
ned to an advocacy' or money and troops' to de
fend the capital. He went no further tits. this.
Of course, he was...for maintaining the Linton in
tact. He was so now Whilst the member frees.
Ohio and his colaborera in' - the Cause of forcible
'negro' emancipation were avowed disunionists.
if, said Mr. Wood, that gentleman spoke by my
side, he spoke at the side ot.one who never fled in
- gloriously from the field of battle, or ignominiously
from the enemy. rife stood by a man who never
vilified and tracluhed the sainted Jackson And
_cologizeci the Teff'Peys who fined Jackson for in
terposing between patriots and traitors. He stood
by a man who _never, clothed with a little brief
Military authority, performed the acts of a depot
and inter'ered with the rights of two sovereign
States. As - -to.. General Settsnek's resignation of
his chi:amiss - ion-he (Mr. • Wood) pledged 'hinaself
,tha t it he could hot prove; were an opportunity
afforded, that there was a verbal understanding
- with the Secretary of Wen that he (Schenekyncald.
resume his comnsission st pleasure, he (Mr. Wood)
;would resign his seat. a . ,
Jld
r. Wood then . replied to the other charges . _
of
Mr. Schenck ' and especially to that implicating
him with the s e w York-rlots. - The party in power,
he said, had raisect.armies under false pretences,
and had committed at e greatest outrages'against the
'Union and constitutional liberty ever perpetrated
by depotism. -

)-c. - . ' . •
Mr. Kelly (Pa. ), after making an allusion to Mr.
Wood, saidhat,Hobert Toombsin telegraphing to
the.theii'Mayar of New Rork, spokerof arms, and
not merchandise, This is .a record which - stands
against theientleirian' a assertion. The gentleman
left New York with riot and sedition boiling, that
the Rends might their work. ' '• . .
He that advdcated,the bill, although it Was not
exactly whirt•he desiAci. The p-ogle of the South
have not only abolished State Governments, but
have established others; and we know the teat of
their confederacy is at Richmond. As to the ter
ritory, It belongs to the Union for all tirrie r nni. if
he could he would drive the traitors to the Gull
beyond. He would do this withyoy. The - Su
preme Court:of the 'United States has declared
that these revolted States had the same rights only
'as alien enermes—enemies invading the land = and
that thgy are Lot only traitors but public eneMies.
These Slates are overthroWn, and it Is the duty of
Copp.; Es to provide governments for them when
conquest is made, and it is our duty to make con
est by all means irnOwn to modern warfare.and
within the limits of the nation:' ,

THE LATE - RICE'LOSION - ... AT CORNELIUS it
BAKER'S FACTORY-CONTINUATION OF
THE CORONER'S INQUEST.
Coroner e Taylor.. resumed the -*investigation
of the late explosion. at Cornelius &Biker's
factory yesterday afternoon.- The following is
the substance of the etidence.ellcited:
Mr. Donaldson, the engineer. was 'recalled..
The exhibited a drawing showing thii parts
of the .boiler. The witness west into a lengthy
explanation as to the position of the two boilers;
he never attempted, to fill both boilers at once, as,
e would - fill beforeehe other. .A great variety
of questions were aiked -in order to test his caps
city as an engineer and to - eiscertain,--`if -possible,-
welch boiler 'exploded first. He had-observed.
scales in the bottom of one of the boilers which he
had ereleavered to scrape off:
Win. Miller, sworn-Was employed as Watch
! Man at Cornelius & Baker'e factory; Denaldson
came there on, the morning of the exploeion e about
live minutes after o' clock; did not. notice time
Donaldson was intoxicated; know nothing about
the fires on morning ofexploslori; never knew the
engineer, to be-Intoxicated except on one occirelon
about two yeses sgo; this., was _the only time;
noticed nothing peculiar abittithim on the morning
of explosion; witnese thought he would have
noticed it had the engineer been Intoxicated.
Jno. Dross was at the factory on: San.day,-the
morning before the explosion; ant In elle habit of , I
going there to see thai matters are all right; Dori
aldson was perfectly soberat that time; never saw
him intoxicated.
Geo. W. 'Allen, sworn-Was at the factory' on
the morning of explosion; saw Donaldson and. be
VOA perfectly - sober as - far as witness knew he was
•
attentive to his business.
Wm. Livingston, sworn:. Am foreman in elie
soldering room; _noticed nothing unusual about
the engineer.' e • -
James Geent, boek.keeper at the establishment
was examined in x*gerdeto the engineer... Always
found him at his pest and attentive.
Samuel Loper, sworn-Donaldson . .has been em
ploy din tee factory seven years, during, whieli,
lime he has oply lostforithours; the pressure g Inge'
in the office - wee examined particularly each day,
James Bueklaywae examined as to the ability - of -
Donaldson as an engineer --.Am eatisfled he wait a
temperate and sober man.
Joseph Pollock,' engineer, testified in regard to
Doneldson's ability.
Algernon S. Roberts, sworn-Have examined
parts of the exploded boiler; The whole surface Of
the iran, was in good condition except the scales In
a pm t of the boiler; the mud drum appeared to be
in pretty geed condition; the whole head of the
mudecirernattracteriany attention front being very
bads] corroded; he 'broke off' a piece which did not
appear to be more than' the one. eighth of an inch
thick; when he saw this he was satisfied there we,
cause for accident in that part of the bollereibe
rivets-near this thin piece of iron were badly chan
neled; the thin p trt of the boiler was imbedebedin
the'b - rick work, and on this account may hove es
cape& notice. Mud drums are apteto corrode when
in contact with the brickwork.
W. B. Levan, sworn-.,-He also, in company with
Mr. Roberts, examined portions of the boiler; all
was in good condition except that part correspond
ing with the mud-drum; he did not think the
thickness of the boiler was strong enough to resist
ethe.nressnre of the steam need atthe time - of the ex
plosion; my impressiones that the mud. drtun gave
way.
Professor Wm. Morris, M. P., who entertains
the theory that it is tbe force of electricitY that
causes-'
steam-boilers to explode, was introduced
by the - leoroner, who said that, as Coroner, he de
sired all the DOI that could be thrown upon this
subject. The venerable professor stated that wleen
called upon by Coroner Taylor to appear, he
'thought it would be better to state his views briefly
in writing. The Professor then read the following
pager:•
Conner-Being here at your request, I will,
with 'your permission, present a few thoughts on
the subject of this judicial inquiry, And e phall
subinit nay conolusione with the-greater` eanfi , •
deuce by season of the scientific reptitatieneotthe
..intelligent jury now assembled.
It is usual to ascribe steam-boller explosions to
'the expansive power of steam, and byethis assump
tion the inquiries made are generally' governed. 1
But the cause assigned-as It is commenly thought
of- ie not equal to all the effects produced. The
inlet um requisite for steam power is supplied by a
%sound and well-constructed boiler,having US proper
appliances- well" adjusted and secured. Bat f
Interim become detective, or the steam pressure be
raised to an unreasonable height, tiro iron cylinder
'may indeed burst or be rent asunder by the expane
sive power of the steana,es, commonly appre ionded.
But this possibility, does not,and cannot, enable us-'
to account, bar the - great amount ofirratity over
come.and the23i6isctilepawer displaYcd,in the case •
of steam-bailer - explosions and their attendant .
facts. The real`and effective cause of those disase•'
trous events must be Otherwise sought and found.
A thcironghl scientific attention must be, given to ,
the true and', acknowleged doctrine - of ' - !force.' ,
The natural distinction subeietiug between inert
matter and active power must be considered, not
in the abstract merely; but in relation to' the sub
ject, of explesiorurand their results. .
Force cannot be generated or in any way origi
elated; ' for, everywhere,. and in everything it
exists, either in an active or in a latent state. It
• can only' be excited, evolved,, and applied,
Neither can it be destroyed, but is readily conver e
tible. and ete mutations are -many and diverse.
Force Is. essentially • one, though its constitneet
:principles are. three,and its efrective manifesta
tions are many. Ard. these 'effective manifesta,
liens are indicated by the, familiar. words light,
heat, electricity, magnetism,- gravitation, momen
tum, elasticity, chemical 'aillrety, and nmscular
I assign plectnicity as the effective cause of steam
boiler explosions.' .But - while so doing I bear id
mind that in assigning any one thing as the'cause
of another, it is necessary that the assigned cause
should be ehown to exist, and to be• equal to the
iffectaseribed.- - But if it be shown Mat free sled
tritity toan enormous amount is present in ,every
steam boiler when...fired np,' no reasonable man
'will be found tbclonbt of its being equal to the ex
plosive and projeotile power, and 'effects that are •

natural state of water and electric equilibrium sub
sists. But it must also be Oonsidered that if an in
tense excitement, and a denlinant accession of the
- radiative; principle of electricitY
- ocCanoned
within the boiler; the effect is what is called steam,
and steam-power, and that the application of fire
to the boiltaroccasions the eitaitemeneand the acces
sion not within view. ' -
Fire, though material, is more than matter, for it
consists of matter in combination with active force.
The principle of fire, under the name of caloric,
is known to be a constituent in the urlar light; and
it is ttrus known-to be - a Constituent - principle - of
electricity, seeing that light anti electricity-are
essentjallyone and the same. 3 -
Fu - e, as viewed in relation to the subject:of pre
sent inquiry, is radiant- heat, _When jfire is ap
plied to the boiler, -and. the motions or vibrations.
thereby occcasioned, are. commurrcate.d "from
particle to particle of the water within, the 'heat
is said to be conducted. -But-when teeparticles of
- water, being greatly excited, have transmitted
their vibrations to the air in theesteam chamber,
-the heat within .the- boiler has become radiant
,h( at, and this radiant heat is active. and energetic
`electricity. By the radiant heat thus . transmitted
from the fnreace; the natural electricity of- the
water is greatly excitedeand its radiative principle,
which is distinguished by intensity, Is also greatly
augriateted, and tee effect of this is, stem and
steam-power; . or, to - spealt'inore accurately,
steem-power consists in the mutual mauls foil of
minute molecules of water in the state of elastic
vttpor, as surcharged with- radisitlye eleCtieditY,
which is the real force evolved.- ,` • -
And it :bottle be considered that, previous to
any accession of electricity, as transmitted from
the furnace, the amount contained In the water is
enormous,
.-
and is very readily excited and set free
This has
been noticed - by, Sir Ws. - Snow Harris, in
his description of the "Hydro-electric-Machine,"
and Professor Faraday has made known that the
amount of electricity contained in...tene - grdin'' of
Water Is equal to that, or a "rery powerful flash of
.17'54.117in, " g nd. by the, continuous process of
evolving steam ? power, this enormous amount of
electricity, together with the greseaccession Vans
mated from the futnace, is in agitate ot the most
.intense exciters ent,- and its constituents are, In
'great parr, divorced and set free. .For it. is held
to be fundamentally true that "the props.-
, gallon of hear, at least in . a metal, is al
' ways attended Wlth the liberation - of electric
for, e; and again, "whatever. disturbs any one
paiticle of matter, whether solid or fluid, the
turbieg force especially if it - -be -- :tteatr libe
rates eclive electricity. And the disturbance of
s eiii tides within. the, steam. boiler,e when. ttfired
up. " must of necessity be inconceivably great.
The effective cause of sham-boiler explosions
ha.s now been disclosed. But, while the cause is
electric force, the occasionsfof explosion are many,
and are variously induced; For instance: a. -de
ficie.-cy of water In the boiler may be an occasion;
and especially so, if the •renewed supply - be
btu - tight in contact with an'incandescent, metallic
- surface, fur decomposition, in part, would mast
likely ensue;-and,
.even when the boiler, is pro
pen) supplied, tee water may come in contact
with an incandescent surface, by reastan of the
formation and subsequent disiuptioli of the. calca
reous deposit,'technicedly called t '
Again; The application of an excessive degree
of radiant heat may be the occasion of over-ex
cited renditions. For the electric constituents di
vorced and liberated by 'tae process of evolving
*teem power have each a natural tendency to re
unite with its opposite; and, by virtue of this
law, the radiated electricity accumulated in the
steam chamber presses laterally and upward to
wards its - opposite in the atmosphere, and,, conse
quently, if there to an - excessive degree - ot
ra
erant:heat transmitted front the furnace, - an
explosion will certai
.ly ensue. Bat further:
'While there is an acecumillation of radiative
electricity in the upper rawly of the boiler,
there is, also, a gteat accumulation of the , mag
netic principle in the lower part, where it is the
effective cause of the foirnatica _of . ca' careous

Importance arises: What meads of safety will meet
