CAST STEEL FOR-BOILERS.
a few years; . the manufacture of
steel has become one of the most important
in this city, the annual product now reach
ing nearly five millions;withimt including
the value ;added to' much of it by tieing
wrought into tools, agricultural implements
and other Useful forms. Besides the rapid
ly increasbig demand for, • the many pur.
poses for which it has already:been used, it
is constantly being applied to, new uses; and
while iron is supplanting other materials of
coristruction,. steel is entroaching on the
'domain of iron. Its greater strength has
always afforded hopes of .its proving fitter
than iron to resist heavy strains; but the
supposed difficulty of producing uniformity
of quality, long prevented its being trusted
by engineers. Latterly this difficulty has
been so completely overcome, that Our best
manufacturers are able to vary the quality
of their steel to: suit any purpose for which
it may be required, so that quite a vocabu
lary of terms is used to denote the
numerous varieties. One of - these, usu.
snally called "homogeneous metal,"
contains much less carbon than other
steel, and so occupies a i middle
-position between wrought iron and
cast steel, partaking of the qualities; ' of
both. This is so even. , in the .iprocess of
manufacture. It is melted with machmbre,
difficulty than steel;but with less than iron,
the fusibility of steel depending upon the
amount of carbon it contains. For this
- reason its production requires more skill
than higher grades of cast steel and is at
tended with greater expense . ; crucibles
which would last for several heats with the
one are often destroyed by a single charge
of the other. In maleability and ductility
homogeneous metal is equal to - iron It'
wffids,iiefirly \ as well; is, tougher, both hot
axul cold ; -has much lgreater tensile strength
than iron; and is free from' the brittleness of
highly cartionized — eteeL These qualities
render it so superior. to iron that it is now
substituted for many purposes for which the
higher grades of steel are . utterly unfit.
Its use 'in 'the.construction of boilers
should be especially interesting to the pub
lic, where it so Involves the security of
life.. For this 'purpose it might appear at
first sight' as if great strength were the most
necessary quality, and Such, indeed, was
the belief when it was first used for boilers.
Steel boiler plates were then required to
have a high tensile strength, and this was
obtained in the readiest manner by making
them hard; and invariably where this was
done, failures resulted, the plates often
cracking in punching, riveting or caulking,
and thus preventing a worse catastrophe.
Joan BROWN & CO., of the Atlas Works,
Sheffield, one of the most noted firms in
England, for a time signally failed in this
way, so that now their manager, Wzra t urd
lineoo, whose world-wide reputation as.=
engineer, gives great weight to his opinion,
states that no steel of more than'7s,ooo
pounds tensile strength should be used for
boilers, and in this opinion he is sustained
by the London Engineer and other high au
thorities. On the other hand, the British
Admiralty retain their original speci
fication requiring a minimum tensile
strength of 80,000 pounds in steel used for
armor plates and for steel vessels, and make
'no specific requirement of a certain degree
of ductility. The disastrous results of, this
adherence to exploded-notions
. have been
deprecated by English engineers,` but, as
yet, to .no purpose. Steel makers easily
fulfil the requirements of the Government
speciflottiod by furnishing a highly
,eszbon
ized, and therefore hard and brittle steel, ,
fur purposes where the 7 Ogoosite qualities
ire imperatively -necessary. . Vessels so
made would - quickly break to plefts upon
rocks, where those made of soft, ductile
and flexible plates might be battered out of
shape before rupturing the plates or starting
a serious leak.- Se, too, locomotives with
boilers made of such plates have plunged
over precipices or into each other r vrithout
explosion, because the material yielded to
the violent strains, 'stretching Nor bending, I
but never breaking.
Now for the rationale of all this. To
make it obvious to all, let MI take the in
stance of two steel springs, one tempered so
bard 'as to be brittle, the other soft and
elastic. The first is more rigid and will
support 'a much 'heavier weight than the
other. In this sense it le' stronger. Vary
the test by striking a heavy blew on each.
The strong, •rigid, highly tempered spring
snaps off, while 'the more mild tempered
yields to the blow and then, by its;elasticity,
returns uninjured to its former shape:
Again: bend both, and the stiff spring breaks
befcire - the other is at all. strairied. The
same difference obtains in . boilers, Nand is
aggravated by other causes. Among these
are the Unequal strains Produced by irregu
lruities of riveting. The soft, ductile steel
yields to these withoutbeing Unduly strained.
:The bard resists until it Is broken, or the
offending rivet is torn. array. Unequal ex-
prelusion and contraction also operate (de
structively upon the more rigid boiler, while
'-that of softer material is not endangerelL
Many mysterious explosions ' have
been •so caused. When -cold water

"boiler. it tends to the boitom, cooling that
Part while'the top is kept hot by the steam.
In a:boiler thirty leetlonq a - reduction of
one hundred degrees of heat at the bottom
will cause it to contract nearly one-fourth
of an inch in length; but the boiler heads

tion above, the bottom plates are distended,.
so as to ruptilie them if too hard, or to elon

farhigher coefficient may beprocured, it is
so at a more than proportionate lossof
gation,i. 6. toughness in the steel." And he
rightly' considers a moderate ultimate
of strength, with it large elongation, as that
which should be sought by the engineer em
ploying steel in his structures :
Commentinm on this the ifichanice
Journal says: "In this we ourselves quite
agree, although ht the same time :urging
upon the steel maker that his business is to
exalt the breaking- standardto the highest
'point he can, while keeping it combined
with a large, at least a suffiiently safe, co
efficient of elongation. We saw with some
surprise, speatmens of bolt I steel which had
been pullaasunder under strain ofthirty
two tons pki. square inch, and the ultimate
elongationOf which was o i l s much as one
sixth the unit, or two inches to the foot,
a degree of toughness winch we did not
previously believe procurable with Besse
mer, or, indeed,' any other steel of that
tensile strength."
Now we have recently seen several pieces
of Pittsburgh steel tested, whicn bore a much
higher strain,than this, and were elongated
three inches to the foot. These were made
by PARK, BROTHER & Co., of the Black Dia
mond Steel Works. Yesterday we noticed
the testing of a boiler made of that variety
of their steel calind "homogeneous metal,"
which bore more than 720 lbs, pressure, per
square inch, equivalent to 74,000 lbs, tensile
strain, without bursting; while the plates
stretched enough tiio increase the circumfer
ence nearly three inches. BY ,this trial the
qualities of steel recommended' for boilers,
by the best 'engineering authorities were
shown to have been combined in that which

THE lILLYORAILTY.
We understand that calls are in cireula

Mayor. We trust that no Republican will
be inveigled into signing such papers. The
plea is that we should take the Mayoralty
out of politics; but every one knows that
Mr. BLACSMORE is a party man—a SEY
MOUR man, in fact, and that every vote cast
for him will be claimed as a vote for SST;

Citizens' candidate,, was claimed throughout

their coarse howlings, made their throats

Mexico for the
real purpose of promoting 'a gigantic land

capitalists and high officers of this govern

of circumstantial tea imony on this point.
If they await the explicit avowal of this
seheme, from the parties concerned in it,
they will never bear It; no better evidence
is likely to be had than what we have al
ready—until it culminates in the armed oc
cupation of SonorO, Sinaloa, Chihuahua,
Durango and Lower California, and another
war with the protesting Mexicans. And
this is what is to be, styled "the acceptance
of a Protectorate" over that wretched coun
try. In reality, this land.grant spectilition
is perfectly well understood, notwithstand-'

from Washington, and it is equally ap

with the acquiescence of the. Mexican , peo

they may. As for the vulgar notions about
"manifest destiny," "the absorption of the

that sort of thing, we are glad to observe
that such discreditable talk 'is confined to

ADDRESS TO SOLDIERS AND CITI.
: "" • ZENS; ' .
From the second address, preparedly the
"Soldiers' and Sailors' Committee" a. Phil
adelphia, we make the annexed extracts!
_ .
' into PROLONGED THE WAR.
The reverses of our armies before Rich
mond in the slimmer of 1862 gave new ;life
to the Peace Democracy Who? in November
of that r, elected Mr. Seymour Governor
of New ork. The victory at Antietam
did not a ate their ardor, followed as it was
by the roclamation of the President on
the 22d September, announcing that on
.Ist of J nary, 1863, he would proclaim
freedom to all the slaves in
-the rebel States.
Of the views of . Mr. Seymour and his
friends in New Yoik, Lord Lyons, in an,
official dispatch to Earl Russell, dated
Washington, November 17, 1862; wrote as
follows:
"On my arrival at . e
-w. York, on the Bth
inst., I found the Co servative (Democrat
ic) leaders exulting tittle crowning &access
achieved by thb party lin that State. Sev
eral of the leaders or the Demodratic party
sought interviews with me, both before and
after the arrival of the Intelligence of Gen.
McClellan's dismissal. The subject upper
most in their minds, while they were speak
ingto me, was naturally THAT OF FOR
EIGN MEDIATION BETWEEN THE
NORTH AND THE SOUTH. Many of
them seemed to think this mediation must
come at last, but they appeared to be very
much afraid of its coming too soon. It was
evident that a premature proposal of for
eign intervention would afford the Radical
party 'a means Of reviving the violent war
spirit, and.Sor thus defeating. : the. peaceful,
plans of the. Conservative&
...1
"At the bottoml thought I perceived it -
desire to put an end to the war, even at the
risk 'of losing the Southern:. States alto
gether.; . but it was plain it was not thobght
prudent to avow this desire. Indeed, some
hints of ' it, dropped :before' the elections,
Were so illl received `that a strong declara
tion in' the contrary sense was deenied nee
`essaiy by the Democratic leaders,
"They tnantain that the object:of the mili
itary. operations should be to place the North
in a position to demand an armistice with
honor and effect. —The iinniiiiii itiould
(they held) be followed by a convention, in
which :such changes 'of the Constitutituf 1 ,
should be proposed as would give the South 1
`ample security on the subject of its slave
property. . ..-- • ~
• "The more sagacious members -of the'
party must,-however, look upon the'pro ,
posalef a convention merely as a last extier-
iment to teat the possibility of re-union.. l
They are no doubt well aware that themore
probable 'consequencesof such an armistice
would be the establishment-of Southern in
dependence.
"It is with reference to such an armistice
as they desire to attain that the leaders of
the Conservative party regard the question
of foreign:mediation.",
... If the Democratic leadertf had dated to
declare these' views, and this trafficking
with the 'representative of - Great Britain,
they would have been branded as traitors to
the Union. • '
After the issuing of President Lincoln's
first emancipation proclamation, Mr. Sey
mour publicly Said, - "that if the Union
could only be maintained- by abolishing
slavery, then thaillnion ought to .be given
On the 4th of May, 1863, Mr. Vallandig.
ham was arrested by General Burnskie for
"declaring disloyal sentiments and opinions
with the object Of weakening the power of
the Government in its efforts to suppress an ,
unlawful rehellion. He• was tried by a
court martial and convicted. arid sentenced
to be placed in close confinement in some
fortress of the United States during the
continuance of the war, which was changed
bylhe Preildent to sending him beyond our
military lilies. The national judiciary de
clined to interfere, and his cause- was taken
up by a Democratic convention at Albany
on the 16th May, by the Ohio Democratic
Convention on the 11th of June,by a Dem
ocratic meeting In the State House yard at
Philadelphia, and by the Democratic Guber
natorial Convention held at Harrisburg in
the month of June, at the moment the rebel
army was marching into Pennsylvania.
The President'sreplies to the Albany and
Ohio committees were conclusive and are
models of Executive Correspondence, cour
teods, dignified, and keeping strictly to the
point. How far Mr. Vallimdigham's pa
triotism justified the exertions of, his politi
cal friends, ,to return him from banishment
and to elect him Governorof Ohio, ananec
dote chrOnicled in "The Rebel War Clerk's
Diary" may illustrate': "June 22d, 1863.
To-day I saw the memorandum of Mr. Ould
of the conversation held with Mr. Vallan
dighara for file in the archives. lie (Mr.
Vol/aridighem) says if we can 'only hold out
this year, that the Peace party of the North
would sweep the Lincoln dyhasty out of ex
istence. He see Med to have thought that
our cause was sinking and feared we would
submit, which, of course, wouLD BE ROM
01:76 TO Ills PARTY. But he advises strongly
against any invasion of Pennsylvania, ;or
that would' unite :allparties at the Northv
and so strengthen Lincoln's hands that , he
would ,be able •to crush all opposition, and
trample upon the constitutional rights of
the 'people." s The President (Davis) en
dorsed on it his disagreement as to the inva
sion of Pennsylvania. "But," added Mr;
Davis, "Mr. Vallat.dighem Is for restoring
the - Union;; emitably, of course ; and If it
cannot be so done, then possibly he is in
favor of recognizing our Independence" -

THE DEMOCRATIC REBELLION.
The successive steps, by which the Demo
craticprogramme for another civil war is
to be executed, were significanlly foreshad
owed by Blair,when, in his Brciadb.ead let
ter, he declared that the existing Southern
State governments can only be overthrown
by the authority of the Executive - and the
army at his back. How this is to be accom
plished is more minutely set forth in the
annexed extract, from Harper's Weekly,
which shows precisely the inevitable results
of the election of the Democratic candidates:
"How a Democratic" success at • the elec
tion would occasion civil war is easily seen. :
General Blair does not hesitate to avow. it.
Congress must he wholly disregarded. The
Snpreme Court must not be invoked. The
President must usurp all power of the gov
ernment and act alone. 'He Must be a Cie
sar. 'Because,' ssys General Blair in his let
ter 'if the President elected by the Democracy
enforces, or permits others to 'enforce, these
Reconstruction acts, the radicals, by the.ac.
cession of twenty spurious senators and fifty
representatives, will control both branches
of Congress, and his adthinistration will
be as powerless as the present one of Mr.
Johnson.' Force is, therefore,_ the onlY al
ternatiVe. • I
"If Mr. Seymour be elected -after this
loud and reiterated deelaration•by his • party
that' his election will mean forcible over
throw of the present State governments in
the Southern States, the result evident.
He mould officially declare these govern
ments void. He would then be impeached'
and probably convicted; but the Democrat
ic party, victorious" at the polls, with the'
Whole rebel torce jubilant and ready,would
dispute the sentence and rise against its ex
ecution. Meanwhile in the,Southerti•States
