Further particulars in relation to the Keely motor, which hrt? been re ferred to by most of the leading news i papers of the country, have been given [ to the Times by Mr. Sergeant, of the I firm of Sergeant & Cutihjgw?rlh, oi .this city.

New tools .have,, ticcn.marie with which the parts' of a new engine arc being fashioned for. the use of the motive power. Metal has been made especially for its con strup'tUni. Anew scientific vocabulary has -been 'dabhioned to express the | pperal^us',. hitherto unknown in mechanics, and perfect success has attcuded''the experiments made thus far. Mr. Sergeant says : One year ago to?dayr-I u began an mvcstigationTinto the powers and properties of what is termed the Keely motor. I was at first an utter sceptic, knowing that the ^j^P^^^iltfc^^unnfd^f? it were UM!? ivMk J@tl.all^n?vicientific teachings, and that, nccordidg to all that was known on th^subject, the claims of Mr. Keely were arrantly absurd. But I had home curiosity on tb'o subject, and, being applied to by a number of persona, some of whom were pecuniarily interested in the dis covery, and all of whom desired a careful investigation* to ho* made, I examine it as au expert. They offered to pay my expenses wdiile 1 did this, but I preferred to pay them myself, aud.^did j so. Mr. Keely- claimed that, I |je> was'abh), "by the utilization of a power coming from the consumption of nir and water, to produce a press ure of thousands of pounds to the square inch, and do it immediately, almost instantaneously. I was incredulous, and tho burrqq made fine still mure so. . (I, said LoI?I r. Keely that in the introduction of all the grpnt invention's or discoveries of | which I bad ever beard, the discoverer bad bad great troubles to persuade peoplo to listen to him, and greater yet to persuade any one to invest money iu the novelty. But here this wag'reversed. People were investing money in something of which they know nothing except what be chose to say about it. That of itself looked suspicious to me, and the extravagant stories which be told convinced mcof the fallacy of believing him. lie was very jealous of his secret. He would not for a long time admit me to see what he was doing that I might investigate the matter.

We are now having a gauge made by-which we can weigh it up to 00,000 pound* One of the difliculties in our way has been that w e have not yet handled tbe thing at the great i pressures at which it can be used. It takes time to make all the experi ments needed, and, although we arc pursuing them as rapidly as possible; wp cannot uo everything in a day. We have used it up to 10,500 pounds pressure,. and are going on as fast as we can.- There is one hindrance. Wo do not know w hat we can cover with our letters patent. We cannot, of course,: cover a natural law by a pa tent, and what we can cover we must describe ?o fully that any person ex port in such intittcta can do the same thing from our description in order jtbat he. may know when and how ho infringes on our patents. This we have not yet boon able to do, because ;we have not yet used it at the heavy pressures nt which it can boused. We I know that it will produce ?

The engine wo.use is a regular yacht engine, with a pair of three by three cylinders, and capable of work ing under a pressure of from 500 to 1,000 pounds to the inch on t'uo pis'on, but the -engine we are constructing will be enjiablo Of working undor the tremendous pressure which we shall produce. It has been nsked how wc will har ness Blich tiemoiid ,us power. We will do it with gunmetal, and in such a way that it will bo safe. In making guns, such exactness is possible that they are ablo It tell how many times the gun can be lired before it will burst, and the bursting comes, not from the force of the explosion itself, but from the unequal strain produced by the bu ruing of powder. This element of I destruction we do not have to contend with, because our pressure is even, and with machinery made on tcien tific principles thero will be no danger or possibility of an explosion, hut even if there should bean oxplosion, which could onlj' come from some de fect in construction, there would bo no danger, excepting from some flying piece, which might do damage, of course'."'
