It is a kind of artificial or fictitious fire, which burns under water, and that, it is said, with greater violence than out of it. Its composition is supposed to be sulphur, naptha, pitch, gum and bitumen, and is only extinguishahle by vinegar, mixed wiih sand and urine, or by covering it with rawhides. Its motion or tendency is said to be contrary to that ot naturnl tire, always following the direction iu which it is thrown, whether downwards, sidewise or otliemiso.

Subsequently to the year 660, about which time it was first used ii was cn diverse occasions applied with signal advantage; and what is remarkable is, that the Greeks were so happy as to keep the se cret of the composition to themselves, though their gallies and artillery where sometimes loaned tj the Romans. Up to the year 960, no other na tion knew the secret. Even at the end of the 11th century, the Pasans, to whom every science and every art were familiar, suffered the effects, with out understanding the secret of the Greek tiro.

In the siege of llamietta, under St. Louis, the fire was thrown out of a kind of mortar, and sometimes shot with an odd kind of cross bow. In his “Histone de St. Louis, Joinville says that which was shot from the mortar come flying through the air like a winged long tail dragon, about the thickness of a hogshead, with the r port of thunder and velocity of lightning, and the d trkrie-s of night was dispelled hv its deadly iUmmua- Tl, e use of Greek fire continued until the middle ot the 14th century, when the scientific or casual com pound of nitre, sulphur and charcoal effected a new revolution iu the art of war and the history ot mankind.

Profane Swearing.—We desire without wishing to usurp clerical prerogatives, to call the attention of the army of the pres ent day,to an order issued by tlie “Father of his Country,” in regard to tL-c vulgar aud degrading vice ol profane swear ing. “Colonel Washington has observed that the men of his regiment arc very profane and reprobate. He takes this opportunity to inform them of his great displeasure at such practices, and assurcss them, that if they do not leave them oh’ they shall be severely punished. The ofiicers are desired, if they hear any man swear, or make use of an oath or execration, to or der the offender twenty-five lashes imme diately, without a court martial. For a second offence he shall he more severely punished.” One would infer from the above that the officers in Washington’s command were not expected to indulge in profane lan guage. Certainly no man should he an officer, who is habitually guilty of such a mean and senseless vice. No wonder that young men, pure as innocence itself when they enter the army, come home to astonish their parents by strange ut terances, when their superiors set tlie pernicious example. Officers should hear in mind that they are not only responsible for w'hat is generally meant by the efficien cy of their command, but they are also responsible to a very great extent, fertile moral condition of their men. The Federal Congress.—The Boston Journal (Abo lition) takes issue with the New York Herald, as to the Gasification of the political complexion of the next house. The latter figured out an anti Administration majority of three: the Journal concludes differently.— So far as chosen the members ar. thus classed: Ad ministration and war democrats, 81; opposition, 73 ; Kentucky delegation, 8. Two of the latter,at least, it is thought, will be found acting with the Abolitionists. There remains to he elected 13 members: 3 in Cali fornia, 1 in Delawarq, 3 in Maryland, 3 in Vermont and 3 in Western Virginia. Of these, says the Jour nal,there is every prohabi ity that the Administration will obtain the majority, or 8 to 7 opposition. If that should he the case the whole house would stand j62 Administration to 90 opposition, even giving the en tire Kentucky delegation to the latter. We believe that this is a very moderate and reliable calculation, under the present circumstances of the ease. It i- very likely that an administration candidate for stiea- ker, accounted decidedly radical, iike Hon Tliaddeus Stephens, for instance, might fail of an election. But we have no doubt that any good man fairly represent ing the Administration iu the houst—like Schuyler Colfax, for instance, or a dozen others that might lie named—would he and is hound to go into the sp- ake: s chair.
