DESTRUCTr9II FLUE AT OIL CITY.
Prrrsauson, April 9.—About midnight on
Wednesday a fire broke out in Oil. City, on
Main street, below the Post Office, which -de
stroyed a block and a half of buildings.
Among the properties destroyed were Wind
liors's hardware, sheet-iron and tin shop; the
1%. Nicholas restaurant and part of the blocks
known as the Arcade and the Michigan. No
efforts were made to stop the progress of the
fire, except by pulling down buildings and oil
sheds; and putting wet blankets on the roofs.
The Post Office was saved by pulling down the
adjoining, building above or towards the
Petroleum House. The amount of damage and
Insurance is not ascertained.

W/O:MR(OTM April 9
House.—Mr. Colfax (Ind.) offered a resolu
tion proposing the expulsion •of Mr. Long
(Ohio) for the sentiments he uttered yesterday,
in favor of the recognition of the Southern
Confederacy.
Mr. Colfax said he had offered the resolution
not as the result of consultation, but on his
own responsibility. If these sentiments are to
go nnrebuked we could not complain of foreign
Governments recognizing the Confederacy.
If thus, from this hall, the • giving of aid and
comfort to the enemy is tmrebuked, you ought
not to ask of your sigdiers to peril their lives
for those who openlY-advocate their destruc
tion.
He had pondered upon his duty, and felt
that he had a double obligation on him to pre
sent this resolution ; one as the presiding offi
cer of the House to administer the duties of
the chair and the rules impartially, and the,
other as a representative from Indiana.
Mr. Cox (Ohio) replied, saying that Judge
Conway, Lincoln en-Representative Stanton
of Ohio; and others had heretofore declared
themselves in favor of revolution and for the
people to establish their separate independence
if they had the power to do so.
Remarks were called forth by interrogatories
from Messrs. Colfax, Garfield and Julian.
Mr. Cox continued his remarks, declaring
that the Democratic portion of the Ohio dele
gation were against the recognition of the
Southern Confederacy.
He would not destroy the Constitution for
any purpose, for without it there could> be no
Union and - therefore no well regulated
liberty.
We have, he said, to take the old States to
restore the "Union. That will be the issue next
Autumn. We never will yield the country to
Secession or abolitionism.
Mr. Kelley (Pa.) said Mr. Cox had defended
by indirection what he had not openly dared to
advocate. The gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Dix)
bad but sounded the key-note of the
leaders of the Democratic party, and
which rallied the Democrats here in opposi
tion to all the departments of the Government
in carrying .on the war. He referred to his
colleague (Mr. Stevens) whose views hid been
criticised by Mr. Cox, saying that he could not
be compared with Mr. Dix, who had yesterday
in effect declared "Heaven bless the traitors,
but curse my country,."
Mr. Dawson (Pa.) remembered that - Mr. Da
said yesterday that he spoke for himself, and
not for the Democratic party, and that ought to
be satisfactory.
Mr. Miller (Pa.) rose simply for the purpose
of entering his protest against the lectures on
patriotism from the Republican aide of the
House, and especially frdwm his colleague, Mr.
Kelley, who had uttered a deliberate falsehood
'on this floor concerning his (Mr. Miller's)
father.
Mr. Kelley replied, defending the remarks
he had previously made concerning his former
public position in Pennsylvania, and said that
his colleague, Mr. Miller, had brought into the,
House, on a late occasion, a vile spawn of
'scandal from Robert Tyler.
Mr. James C. Allen (Ill.) expressed his sur
prise that the Speaker should descend from his
chair and offer a resolution to expel the gentle
man from Ohio, for words uttered in debate.
It was without a parallel in the history of the
country. Although he (Mr. Allen) was against
secession, he thoaght the gentleman from
Ohio had a right to express his sentiments.

FROM THE ARMY OF THE porom&c.
[Correspondence of the N. Y. Kerala.]
READQIIARTL73B, LUNY Or TUX rOTOMM);
April B.—There is nothing of special interest
to report from the Army of the Potomac.
Gen. Sharidan has assumed Command of the
cavalry corps.
For the last two weeks the camps have been
well nigh submerged in mud, and the roads
almost impassable. A few days of the compa
ratively pleasant weather we are having now
will effect a wonderful change in their eondi
tion. The sun shone out brightly yesterday,
and a marked improvement in the roads is visi
ble already.
Engineer and pioneer parties are busily en
gaged repairing those bridges which have been
slightly injured in consequence of the recent
rains.
Officers in the several corps are - assidionsly
employed perfecting the many details
rendered necessary in the reorganization of th
army.
The enemy is evidently preparing to show a
stubborn resistance to the anticipated advance
of the Army of the Potomac. The main
bodies of the opposing armies are separated by
the Rapidan. The rebels are still constructing
defensive works on the south side of the
narrow stream. They are digging rifle pits in
front of the fords and at other points,as well as
throwing• tip more extensive works for field ar
tillery. They are also repairing the railroad
bridge across the Rapidan.
GENERAL BUTLER'S DErstyrultrr.
[Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald..-
FORTRESS MoNRoE, April 7, 1864.—Aguii
boat expedition to the Chickahominy was sent
up from Norfolk on Monday, the 4th instant,
by Brigadier-General Charles K. Graham, com
manding the naval brigade of this department.
The force consisted of the gunboats Samuel L.
Brewster, under Captain Arnold Harris; and
General Jessup, under Lieutenant Bladenheu
ser 3d Pennsylvania Artillery. The two gun
boats reached the month of the Chickabominy
at daybreak on Tuesday morning, and steamed
fifteen miles further, when Lieutenant Bladen
henser in command of fifty men, landed and
scoured the country- The two gunboats, in
the meantime, sailed around a huge bend,a dis
tance of twelve miles, when the skirmishing
party was again picked up.
Harassed by rebel cavalry on the flanks, the
officer in command of the troops on shore was
compelled to adopt the the greatest caution and
watch the movements of the rebels very strictly
to avoid being ambuscaded. Shots were ex
changed freely, but no damage was done to
either side. Our troops, however, eluded the
vigilance, of the enemy, and reached the gun
boats sofely. Not relishing the ugly appear
ance of the guns of 'the Brewster and Jesup,
the rebels wisely kept out of range„
The object of the expedition, which pene
trated to within about fifteen.miles of the re
bel capital, was for secret purposes of the ut
most importance, and was faithfully performed
throughout. Whatever it may been, the officers
concerned in it—namely, Captain Harris, Lieut.
Chambers and Lieut. Bladenhauser—deserve
great credit for their pronipt and fearless exe
cution of the General's orders. Some forty
negroes were brought back on the Brewster and
Jesup last evening, when the expedition re
turned, which were turned over to Captain Or
lando Brown, Assistant Quartermaster and Su
perintendent of Negro Affairs of the first dis
trict, by whom they have been distributed
throughout the government plantations. •

The Navy Department has already taken
measures to have two or three fast steamers
placed on the track of the rebel pirate Rappa
hannock. It is said that a traitor, by inten
tionally giving false information to the com
mander of the United States steamer Kearsarge,
prevented that . Teasel, or the Tuscarora. from
being able to intercept the pirate. The sailing
sloops of war St. Louis and Constellation are to
be relieved, and steamers sent in their places
in the Eastern hemisphere.

CROSS & JAIITIS'S CLASSICAL Sotann.—The
third in the series of classical soirees byMessrs.
Cross & Jarvis was given at the Foyer of the
Academy last evening, and attracted a crowded
and most appreciating audience.
Kalkbrenner's Grand Duo was siperbly per
formed by Messrs. Cross & Jarvis, followed by
a lovely Quartette of Mozart for piano and
string instruments:" De Beriot's Concerto for
Violin in E Minor was exquisitely rendered by
Carl Gaertner, and Beethoven's Trio, op. 97,
for piano, violin and violincello, concluded the
entertainment. The gem of the evening, how
ever, was Hummell's Concerto op. 89, for
piano with Quintette accompaniment. Mr.
Jarvis never appeared to better advantage than
in this piece. He seemed to be inspired alike
by the composition which he handled in so mas
terly a manner, and the superb instrument on
which he played. The Steck's grand piano
used on the occasion was a new instrument,and
one of the most superb quality we have ever
listened to. It deserves more than the passing
notice we can give it at this time.
We again congratulate both the artists and
the music-loving public on the success of these
admirable soirees, which may now be regarded
as an established institution amongst our annual
entertainments.
HEARING OF ALLEGED Munnzugns.—The
hearing of John Arnott, second mate, and five
men of the crew of the bark Garibaldi, who are
charged with the merder of John elsh, first
officer of the vessel, bad a hearing this after
noon before United State Commissioner
Aubrey H. Smith. The prisoners are mostly
Portuguese. The vessel was bound from New
Orleans to Matanzas and thence to Philadel
phia. The allegation is that when at the mouth
of the Mississippi, after leaving New Orleans,
the first mate was seized in ,the forecastle by
the crew, and, after his haAi s were tied, he
was stabbed through the eart and thrown
overboard.
Charles Gilpin, Esq., appeared for the
prated States. John . P. O'Neill, Esq., ap- .
peared for the defence. The hearing is in pro
gress when we go to press.
LARCENY or A WATCH.—A man had his
pocket picked of a watch, yesterday afternoon,
at a house in 'Market street, above Twelfth.
Charles Richardson was suspected of the theft
and was arrested. He then showed where the
watch had been hid in the stable attached to
the premises, and the timekeeper was re
covered. The defendant was committed by
Alderman Devlin.
ENLISTMENTS DURING THE WEEK.—The war
rants issued for the payment of the city bounty
to volunteers during the week ending to-day,
amounted to $78,250. This sum would indi
cate the enlistment of 313 men, who have been
credited to the city. The total of men
who have been paid the city bounty thus far
is about 14,030.

fcr diseases of the eye and ear has become familiar
as houiehold words, and all who are thus afflicted
shoUld lose no time in putting themselves under
his professional treatment. Prof. Isaacs liar ad
uate of one of the first European colleges, and en-
joyed a distinguished reputation in his native city,
Leyden. To those who may be doubtful as to his
ability we would say, call at his office, No. 511
Pine street, and examine certificates of extraor
dinary cures from some of our best citizens. Such
testimonials as these will at once remove all skep
ticism.

COURTS
Manner Covar—Judges Sharswood, Hare
and Stroud.—Mervine vs. Sailor et al.—This
case, which has been before reported on the
two occasion in which if was before the Court,
is an important one to the many ground-rent
landlords in this city. It arises in this way :
The plaintiff conveyed to the defendants a lot
of ground in 1639, reserving a yearly ground
rent of $570, lawful silver money of the United
States, each dollar weighing 17. pennyweights
and 6 grains at least. A year ago, when the
half-yearly payment became due, the defend
ants tendered the amount thereof, $285 in
Treasury Notes. The plaintiff refused to re
ceive it and brought snit. The defendants
pleaded this tender, and to this plea the plainr
tiff filed a replication, averring that the de
fendants did not tender in silver dollars,
each , dollar weighing seventeen penny
weights and six grains at least, bat in
promissory notes or paper money of the United
States of the nominal value of 40 per cent. less
exchangeable value. To this replication the
defendants Bled a special demurrer, stating as
cause that the promissory notes so tendered
were lawful money of the United States and a
legal tender in payment of all debts. The
calm was re-argued at the present term of
the Court by George M. Wharton, -Esq., for
plaintiff, and George W. Harkins for defen
dants. This morning Judge Hare delivered
the opinion of the Court rendering judgment
for the defendants in the demurrer, thus as
serting the law that the tender of United
States notes was sufficient. Judge Sharswood
delivered a dissenting opinion.
