Death from Burning. A most diutressing accident occurred at the residence ofS. Wilmcr Oannell, Esq., near Torresdale, resulting ln the death of one of his servants from burning. This woman (the coolt), ln endeavoring to light a lamp, ln some way exposed her dreas to the flames. No one being ln the room at the time of tbe accident, the llames had made considera ble headway beforo she could give the alarm. The lady of the house, rushing down stairs, instantly deluged her with water, but the assistance came too late. Fulling over, the woman expired ln a few moments. As the lamp was found upright on the table, with all Its contents, tbe accident could not have occurred from any explosion. This Is a direct warning to the many who exnose themselves so heedlessly to accident from fire. To Housekeepers and Others.

Representatives ct national bsuks, mote r articularly large banks, who would suffer most by the passage of tho bill, are now hcre trying to insure its defeat, and they arc likely to succeed. Tbo Friends of (Jeneral Grant ro prcHtly disappointed at the refusal ot the fknate to agree to the repeal of the Civil Tenure act. Grant himself, it would seem, is less auDoyed ubout it than Hny other person, lie is said to have remarked to a member of the House who called upon him to day, that, ho preferred to bo free and unfettered iu hli ac tion; but if the Son ate rnfuscd to repeal the wet in question it should not trouble him. Tho only thing was that tbe So Data would have to shoulder tho responsibility. diplomatic Itelation. It is now apparent that the present Confer ence Committee on the diplomatic appropriation bill will fail to agree; they have hud several mccliugs, ulways with the eatne result, Batter insisting upon his proposition to consolidate the Central and South American Missions, and Senator Sumner on the part of the Senate re luoing to yifld that point. It is thought a new committee will be ordered. Warehousing Ooodn. - The Ways and weans uomoiittes has had a bill to prohibit the warehousing of goods mann lactured in the United Stales under cousidcra tion for the rast two days. No conclublou has yet been reached, but Indications are that the bill will be agreed upon by the Committee aud reported to the Hou6C. It is the bill iut rod seed in the Senate last year by Senator Morrill of Vermont, but it has been considerably mollQcd "by the Ways and Means Committee. F0KTIETH COUKESS-TIlIRD SESSION llonso of KeprcNcntud ves. Mr. Cook, of Illinois, from the Committee ou Kleetions, niaoe a report iu the case or J. 11 Casement, claiming to be elected a delegate from Hie Territory of Wyoming. Tno report concinoes witu me iuiuiwiui; reoiuuoii; Ilesoived, Tnut J. If. Casement Is not entitled to a scat ln this House as a delegate from the Terriu rv of Wvomlna. Laid on the table, and ordered to be printed. The Bpcuker laid before the llouso tue Presi dent's veto of the Copper Tariff bill. Tbe veto meRfcage was read, aud the question being, shall the bill pas, the President's objec tions to the oouirary notwithstanding? Mr. Schenck, of Ohio, said he did not proposu to take np tbe time of tbe House at this late day ol the session ln a fresh discussion of this bill. He would yield his hour to gentlemen on both sides of tbe llouso who were especially Interested ln this measure and resume the door In time to call the previous question. Ho yielded ten minutes tl rut to Mr. Blair, of Michigan, who spoke of (be willingness of tbe President to oblige his friends in Baltimore by vetoing the bill, The BUliuor?.cs in town had invited him tosiooat their city on his way to Tennessee. While he would be receiving hospitalities la the Monumental City, the hurdy miners on the banks of Lake Superior would, if the bill should (all to pass over his veto, be suD'orlag from his obstinate actions. He then proceeded to review the message of the President, arguing that there was nothing in the provisions of the bill which make It a tax upon the Industry of any part of the country. Mr. Biooke(N. Y.lhad Aft eon minntes yielded blm by Mr. Hcheuck, and sild that when a unfon had a bad cause to defend he frequently went oil' to side ltsues. Tbe gentleman from Michigan, Mr. Blair, had abused the author of ttie veto Instead of answering Us arguments. He tMr. BrookB) was as much interested In the copper business as the gentleman from Michi gan, yet he could not Inflict any injury upon. tle whole country for t he sake of his own con stituents. Copper stocks bad gone up in New York fiom 5 to 10 per cent, since tbe bill bad p&yged tbe House, aud but for the prospect of a veto they would have gone uplO.percent. more. It was to the interest of the moneyed men that the bill should pass over the veto. The bill Itself was an Iniquitous measure; It struck at some of the most Important interests of the conntrv. and he hoped It would not pass. Mr. Pike appealed to his side of tbe House, the Republican, to vote upon the merits of the measure Itself, and not upon Andrew Johnuou rrom riBliklll. FiflrtKir.L, N. Y., Feb. 23.
