THE FREsHEr The Buffalo Commercial
of Monday, says that the damage by the fresh
ct, will fall short of what many at first suppos-
ed Under the circumstances, it is impossible
to form correct estimate of the loss, but we
feel confident that it is much exaggerated, and
will not exceed s25 1000. The two steamers
that suffered the most are fourth class boats,
and of very little value--hence the erroneous
estimates.

ben Rowley, of Wrenthan, made his second

CONGRESSIONAL.

The Senate was occupied to-day in the eonsidera
zion Of the House amendments to the bill supple
mentary TO an act providing for the organization o
the volunteer force. At Two o'clock the doors wer'
closed, and the Senate durAg the remainder of the
session was occupied in the consideration Of sxecu
tive business.
In the House, report was made by MIR. HARRISON
from the joint committee Of conference on the disa
greeng votes of the two houses in relation to The
bill making alterations in the pay department OF the
army. The committee had agreed upon comPro'
mise which the House accepted The bill, there
fore, needs only the signature of the President to
become law.
Mr., Mckay then succeeded in bringing up, In
Committee ofthe Whole on the state OF the Union
the bill making appropriations for the naval service
The discussions were mainly on matters OF detail
and are condensed into very small compass to re-
Geve, far as may be, the pressure of matter upor
our columns The committee made considerable,
progress
A joint resolution was introduced by Mr.. Me
Kay to refund expenses incurred by States and in
diyiduas under a call for militia and volunteers
made by Generals Gaines and Taylor The reso
luton, Of which copy will be found in another
place, was passed.

THE MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.
Washington, iO-nigh,, 10 o'clock.

Washington, to-nighi, 10 o'clock.
We have been attempting for several days TO
make an experiment upon the telegraph to illustrate
lis success by the rapidly Of its communications
from Washington to New York, and back again
from New York to Washington, in the course of an
hour. We wished TO address a message TO cor
respondent in New York, (notng the time here and
requesting him to send US quarter Of column OF
news for the same eUsnings "Unon," he noting and
informing us Of the time Of sending the news from
New York. We hope we shall be more fortunate
in the course of the week in carrying these details
through-thus showing the triumph Of science in al
most annihilatng space and time.
Meantime, we lay before our readers the follow
ing memorandum of news we have received from
the city ofNew York tonight:
"Per company telegraph to Baltimore, and from
there, through United States telegraph, TO Washing
ton, at 81 o'clock, p. m.

10 do so. When shs 90 asks Us, it will be time enough
To entertain her proposition and 10 consider 0AHi guar
antsss she gives US that she asks In good Jaiih'
Meantime, to "stop and negotiate" would be, on our
part, at once foolish and cruel-foolsh, because
such course would now come 10 nothingi and cru
81, because il would delude Mexico into the notion
that she could preyarcate US out Of our just claims
to peace upon honorable conditions, and so in the
end would prolong and aggravate the war.
We are happy to perceive that the "EVenlng
POST in publishing the Objectionable article upon
which we have commented, has taken care TO VIndl'
cate the administration from the charge of having IN
any way needlessly exposed Gen. Taylor and his
army 10 defeat or disaster. The administration en-
powered that officer to call to himself such aid as he
might need Giving him this authority 1t relied upon
his udgment in the premises and the event has shown
how noby that reliance has been yindcated. In the
care of the "Post" guard this point properly and
Justly, we trust we may recognize disposition TO
give to this necessary war measure Of our govern
ment a firm and cordial support. And we cannot
but take occasion again to express with entire re-
speet that journal, hope that it will not again
put into the hands Of the "lntelligencer" a weapon
with which tn strike covert blow at the present
administration, and at the democratic party.
Meantime we undertake to say, that this Mexican
war will be prosecuted with the umos, vgor I'LL It's
righteous objects are secured. We shall not "stop
and negotiate" ill we are we'll assured that we shall
not negotiate in vain.

PERCUSSION LOCKS IN THE ACTIONS OF THE

PERCUSSION LOCKS IN THE ACTIONS OF THE
EIGHTH AND NINTH on MAY
Without disparagemsnt TO the other corps OF our
gallant little army who were engaged ana
achieved the glorious victories Of the 9th and 9th Of
May, over superior force of the Mexcans, it must
be admitted thai great credit is due to the artillery
for their daring ntrepidty, the great skill dexterty
and GOODNESS with which they maneuyred the guns,
and the celebrity and precision with which they fired
General La Vega in speaking ofthe battle, express
ed his admiration and great establishment at the
skill OF this branch Of our service. IL seems that
the important inventions of the percussion lock and
wafer primer for cannon have not been introduced
into the Mexican service, but that the old plan is
still adhered TO. These inventions have been used
in our army and navy for number OF years, and In
the recent victories Of the 9Th and 9th Of May gave
our artillery great and decided advantage over the
enemy.
Itappears from the report Of Lieutenant Colonel
Talcot, of the ordnance bureau, made in answer to
call of the Military Committee Of the Senate OF
the United States, at the first session Of the 26Ih
Congress, that Joshua Shaw is the inventor, and
that, having been adopted and used in the army and
navy for many years-notwithstanding his patents
the faith OF the government has been pledged to
| remunerate Mr.. Shaw for the same.
While conducting experiments to test the utility
Of these inventions, under officers selected by the
War Department, a cap exploded in Mr. sha~'s
hand and injured it very seriously. A bill passed
the Senate at the last session for the relief Of Mr.
Shaw, but was not reached in the House. Two
committees Of the House Of Representatives have
reported in favor Of the claim. It does to US
from an examination Of the reports, that no impair
dal man read them without coming to the con-
clusion that the claim is just and meritorious, and
one that ought TO be allowed by Congress- We
therefore, hope that Congress will take up the case
of Mr.. Shaw, who is now old and poor, and NEE
out TO him that justice which has been so long de
laysd TO an honest and meatorious citizen,
