Tito Mysterious Muter, (Correspondence of the New York Times.] J'ltji.APRLFuu, June 10,--The mo' ohanical and scientific world lum boon greatly cxcitcil ol late by the discovery 01 a new motive power by a Mr. John W, j Ceo ley, ot this city. The lately-discovered motor is generated, i as the gentleman claims', from cold water and air, and evolves into a vapor mora powerful than steam, and considerably morn economical. It is proposed l?y this new invention to revolutionize the wojId, and turn machinery topsyturvy. Strain Will bo a thing of lLu past, and the wonderful power of this now croation will supply all the needs of man for the use to which steam is now applied, .Just what this vapor is, nud bow it is made, the discoverer refuses to make plain or divulge ids hidden secret until lie has letters patent taken out in all the countries of the globe which issue patent rights. This service alone will cost about $20,000 and will not be completed until throe or four months hence, Mr. Kceloy is very reticent on the subject of his discovery, and referred your correspondent to his attorney, Charles B. Collier, J'bap The latter gcttlcmcn said that a private view of the working of of the motor bad been made on the Iflih of November, I $71, before a number of capitalists, and that only three weceks since another exhibition had beam given before a number of gentlemen from New Knghiud Slates. These latter were so well pleased with the modus operandi, and believed so firmly in the ultimate supersedere of steam by the i/mi* i,a uxth I 11 n t t lio if /k/l a ot ! iiw ji'Mi v;i , uin mvjr iw?iuvu ?? nu? u company, purchased the patent right for ifie six New Knglund States, and paid $80,000 cash immediately lor I heir share in the invention, and are ready to forward $200,000 morn as soon as culled upon, They will organize a company with a capital of $0,000,-, 000, and be ready to manufacture the engines and necessary apparatus as soon as the proper patents are secured. iji8toky ov this MGCiQVKUY, Mr. Kecley alleges that the discovery of this powir was purely accidental. Up to within a short time he was a poor man, but, having a wonderful degree of natural mechanical skill, he devoted all his time for the past foutv teen years to ei: pi rim cuts with water with a view ol procuring a motive power from it. lie was engaged upon and idea of his own regarding the force of columns of water one tlaj', when he accidently discovered tlio vapor which he has harnessed. Ife studied the subject, ascertained how it was generated, learned its power, and thenceforth applied himself solely to the {perfection ot this idea, working night and day lor a number of years, until crowned with success. The apparatus by which this power is made is termed a "generator or "mullipllcator," and the vapor is then passed into a "i'cccj?ty," and from thence to the cyliudertjpgfe of the engine, where it drives tlx .J ^ons and sets the engine in nK/jf^jJ The "generator" in about threehigh, made of Augtrain gun ^ jg in one solid piece, and will ho&UrAut ten or twelve gallons of watejL ,]L. is four or five inches thick, and wtLrtf to stand the very heavy pregau.gp <of 20,000 to 30,000 pounds of vapor to the squar Inch, The inside is composed of a number of cylindrical chambers, connected by pipes, and furnished with cock* and valves. The "reservoir" is about six inches in diameter and forty inches v J?0?? and is connected with the "generator" by a pipe which is about one inch in circumference on the outside, with a bore of about one-eighth of aa tiw.li I Vinm.r.tnd ivil li luit li ('flrnnoni.

CLAIMS or T1IJC INVENTOR. Mr. Keeley claims that this apparatus will generate cold vapor from water by mechanical appliances, without the use of chemicals. The water used is common river, spring or well water, and docs not undergo any previous prearatiou, a rubber hose lroni an ordinary hydrant to the generator being used as a means of conveying the liquid. The peculiarity ot this vapor is that it can be used to the best advantage jat a pressure of from 20,000 to 30,000 pounds to the square inch. To the mechanical mind this seems impossible. Vet sneh is the claim ot Mr. Keeley, and it has been attested that such is the faet by gentlemen who are hel l to be mechanical experts of (he highest grade. Vet with all this immense pressure at his command, the inventor is enabled to control his engine, and run it with the same ease and facility as engines are now run by steam, lie has tried the %,inotorM upon an engi no of twenty-horse power, and it defied the elicits ot all the gentlemen present to stop the fly-wheel. The water used, alter it has passt d through the Mmultiplieate.r," has no perceptible smell or taste, and seems as pure as when it first entered, the* showing conclusively that no secret chemical process is employed to carry out the object designed. The parts ol the generator and mnltiplieatoi are all made of welded iron ol great t hit kucss and strength. The connecting pipes are also small and of great thickness, and are oxidized a.nd'planishcd so as to prevent the force of the vnuor escaping through the pores of the metal. Steam could not. turns throuirh the p.on necting pipes which are used on this apparatus, since the bore is only the dimension ot a knitting-needle. p A N<i Kit Of KXl'lvOgloy. ^Viti? this immense power at hand one would nat orally fear an explosi m most disastrous in its results. I hit SUCii it is claimed cannot be the case, since when the vapor (amies in contact with the atmosphere it ceases to expand, and instantly goes hack to its original stale?namely air and water; therefore, in this regard it is U ss dun- j gerous than either gunpowder or steam. The vapor is thinner than air, and will not cut the metal in escaping or passing through the throttle valve, [t cannot be exploded or caused to flame by the application of it to heat. A lighted candle haw been held at the mouth of .a conk, and the force of the air did not even extinguish the light, and did not have any offensive odor? in tact, none at all was perceptible. The rapidity with which this vapor can he generated is almost inappreciable. "In tivc seconds," said .Mr. lveeley, "I can'supply 2,000 pounds of vapor to the square inch, and enough to run a tram of ten cars from Philadelphia to New York and return." It seems almost instantaneous, so abort is the time consumed. The vapor has a damp, cold lceling. Tiicrc is not the least noUe perceptible in its generation. To apply this motor to any engine now in use. will first, renniro ? - - - - 'i ~ j sing of the boiler, as the receiver ami generator will take its place; *eooudly, the lire-box must be removed as a useless adornment; and, thirdly, in locomotives there will bo no iuo (or t.ho lender. The power will be supplied to the engine, and the tram will move oft'at any rate of speed which may be desired, provided all that has bc??n claimed lor the "motor" does not fail. With a Keeley "motor" attached to a steamer, the voyage o! the world can he made without coal, but as the action of salt"water in producing the vapor lias never been tested, it remains to be seen whether or not a vessel would not bo obliged to till up the space occupied by coal-bins with water-tanks. Just here the invention appears most wonderful. It is said that with about an ordinary tumbler of water a twenty-horse-power engine can run an hour and perlorm its lull service. "Seeing will bo believing" in this matter, and the sooner Mr. Kc< ley makes his first public exhibition ol the invention will the pnbiio at large and tho world in general come to re gard tho name et Keeley as they do that of Fulton or Watts. .Mr. Keeley says that the first public exhibition will bo upon tho Pennsylvania Kailroad, when he proposes to take a train from this city to New York and ro. 11 ~ M 'I... lurii. iio win uavu mo ^rnuiiiiur stationed at West l'hiladelphia till the "receiver" which accompanies the engine and take vapor enough to draw twenty earn to New York and back.

For si reel ears, as a motive power the invention, it is claimed,, will un- : doubtedly become popular. The cost of the apparatus will arange from ?500 to 2,500, according to mzo and finish desired. U is evident from the diameter of* i the gentlemen who are interested in the "Jvocloy .Motor C'ompany," aiul the amount of money they have advanced, i that they regard this invention a,? the j wonder <?I" the nineteenth century.

The malice that seeks' 1<> revive the iP'lariou^lv eoucoct'd and long since ex plod'-tl slanfler which connected my name with the assassination of l'resi dent Lincoln is quite in diameter with the man who so conducted his invasion ol the South as to render "Sherman s bummers tue synonym ol pillage, arson, cruelty to this In* 11>loss, ami murder ol lioncomhatanis, ami who closed his caieor ol arson with a falsa accusation against (Ion. Hampton in regard to the hunting of Columbia, South Carolina. Hut the question arises, W 1?y did Gen. Sherman, at lite dale of his reported conversation with Gen. J. 10. Johnston, suppose me capable of complicity in the assassination of President Lincoln? Gen. Sherman never was personally acquainted with me; ami Irom those who knew me, either in the United States army or in civil life, surely learned nothing to just 11 v such suspicion. In the conduct ol' the war between lite Stales, despite many base less accusations, we can proudly point to a record which shows a strict ad hereuce to the usages ol war between civilized nations. On what, then, did i ho suspicion ot Gen. Sherman rest? Was it not that, proceeding on the rule of judging others by oneself, he ascribed to inc. the murderous and malicious traits of his own nature? lie reports a conversation with I'resident Lincoln, from which is to be i inferred a desire to have authority for departing from tho eourso which, art a soldier, lie must have known was usual and proper towards prisoners of war. iJid ho hope to get instructions lor the slaughter of the Confederacy's ) 'resident and Cabinet < Dicers, as set forth in the orders of Col, I ahlgren, when he made his raid against Richmond? If the good-natured, characteristic reply of I'icBtdent Lincoln taught him that murder was not the approved measure, it seems to hare failed to inspire him with the generosity ami chanty which are ever found in noble minds, or with the chivalry which ever adorns the character ol the true soldier and gentleman. Among the at tides ol the surrender of tlen. J. K. Johnston there was one prohibiting military expeditions in the eonntry east ol the Chattahoochee River.

Again thanking you for your friend- J ly consideration, 1 am, very truly yours, Jkkpkkson Davis, The Public Kobburs* TVesh interest bus been awakened during the past week in Hie case of the j Ir luds upon the city by the Tweed gang. When Ingersoll was pardoned out ut prison hovci a I weeks hjiicc, the act was regarded by some as of questionable propriety and policy; but it I was hinted tlnit lie had consented to make a mil coulession ol the enormous liaud-s. This he has now done, lie bus lurnished additional information, b) which it appears that the Lhell of public money was carried on in the most systematic manner; Tweed receiving twenty live per cent, ot tiie plunder, which hu us?d in part lor brioerv; b a eeny, ten per cent; and t.'oinioiiy, Woodward, WaLson, and alier W alson's de.un \\ iiliam it.
