WABHraaiON , March 6 The honse
of representatives left behind It a. cal-
eadaT of more than one hundred
pages. Sixty of those piges ai a de
voted to private bills , of which no
less than 900 fall , the bulk of them
being pension bills , with a good
aprinkHng of relief bills , aud a few
propositions to remove political disa
bilities. With the exception of the
bill ( reported t.dveuely ) reliev Ing-
General U. S. Grant , there is no bill
of any public importance on the cal
endar. The McGarraghen claim f 3-
oras.in a double character , one bill for
his relief being reported adversely and
another favorably : " - \
The public calendar , to which ; i re
ferred all measures dispcair j of
the money or lands of the govern
ment is the grave of over 160 bills of
more or leu public Interest. At the
head of the calendar atincs a mrute
which in its day wti the c usa of
much political wrangi > .ug , but which
is now almost entirely furaottati , that
regarding the removr1 of caucr i fvom
state to federal courts. Among other
bills of note on this ctlendarre the
following : To regulate immi .atl&a ,
to-apply the proceeds of the ; ; lci of
public lands to the education of the
people ; to authorize the colnrje
of * ilver dollars on the metric

library ; repealing dlaci'-nination dues
an tea aud coffee , the products of the
possessions of the Netherlands ; declar
ing the policy of the Uhitad States in
reference to an inter-ocaanic canal ;
In reference to the Venezuela award.
The first on the house calendar , the
repository of such public bills as uo
not part with the money or property
if the 'government , stands a bill which
for many days occupied the time of
the honse , that repotted on the 12th
) f June , .b79 , prohibiting political
wsoisments. Then come th i following
aills : For the relief of Fitz John Porter
ter ; to regulate inter-stat * con men j ;
to restrict Chinese immigration ; to
iward the Pacific railroad cinkii 3 fund
ict ; to abrogate the Clayton-Bulwcr
treaty ; to Incorporate the Mtit'ne

izing the establishment of a tola-
graphic system nnder the government

: able also proved to be the grave of

a. m. About three o'clock yesterday
morning there we 3 an expleaion in one
of the agitators in William Lelkin &
Coi'a Belmont oil worts , located at
Point Breeze. In five * minutes the
fire spread over .the works. Ahrms
were Bounded , which brought nearly
ell the fire department to the scene ,
bat owing to the scarcity of water , but
little headway was made in getting
the fire under control. The firemen ,
knowing it would be Impossible to ex
tinguish the flames , devoted them
selves to preventing its further spread
ing. Several small dwellings were de
stroyed. The oil burned all day yea-
terday , and will barn out by morniug ,
provided the wind does not change
and send the flames in dlfferant direc
tions. The loss will not be over 875-
C30 , but there Is a very small inaut-
auce on the works. As to its origin ,
all that could be learned was that It
sir-ted in an agitator , lu which vn
nrobably one hundred barrels of gno-
liv ! > , being agitated before undergoing
further refining procc is. The esU ; tor
where it ata tied was a wood one , and
therefore the flames had plenty of
material to work on when they started.
