II About twelve o'cl0ck, Thursday
night, asfire broke out ina small frame
building in stheSrcar Of ,No.3f Orange
I street. 0ccasioned by one Of the occu-
/ pants setting fire TO q straw bed
Y From the statement Of Captain Bren-
nan, p,of8 the Sixth Ward, it appears that
the apartment in. (which the fire origina-
/ ted, sWas,aboHt twenty feet, square, aud
ssWss pecupied--stsange as it may seem,
! bysoversthiftys men, women, and chill.
asdren;; nearly oil of whom were half
3 naked. ~ One of these, lodgcrs arose
bout midnight, and striking q match,
set; fire to a; straw bed upon which he
had been lying; after which he seized
I hissbundle end fled into the street.
Another lodger, who / happened to be
awake, saw the operations of the in.
zcendiary, but before he could arise
from his place, the man had escaped.
& He, however, aroused the others, who
had barely time to escape before the
bed WAS in a full blaze. Several pals
sof waterwere procured, and the flames
cxtinguished before much damage oc-
Cured to the apartment. Policeman
Riker, of,the Sixth Ward, CHANGED to
pass the building at the time, and OBJ.
SserYed a fash of light, and in q mo-
4 snent after, saw q man run out. Think
1: fpg something was wrong, he gave the
9alsrm raps, which soon brought as
& Ssistance to the spot.
SS The 8incendiary meantime had es.
S capped, but was found in about two
hours afterwards prowling about the
Five Points.
sOn being, apprehended he acknowl-
edged setting fire to the bed, assigned
no reason for doing SO. He gave his
name US John Crawlcy, and on being
taken before the Magistrate yesterday
morning was committed to prison for
examination.
Ca tain Brennan says tho apart
8 ment and its occupants presented a
most miserable scene. There was no.
Ching nSthe room save number Of
; straw beds, which lay side by on the
floor. The tenants were of the lowest
s class, the men and women being
bloated with liquor and almost dcsti-
SsSute Of clothing to protect them from
the cold. The. room was filthy, almost
beyond endurance, q fit place to cngcn-
der@a pestilence in warm weather.

soon see it disappear from this wes-

TAo Senate proceeded to the conSi lcratiOn
of Nr. BIdgcr's resolution that the Secretary

lu;cilI-eucer the tu.l debate and proceedings
Of the Senate for the late Legislative Session,
and pay the same compensation therefor as Is
allowed to tine Union and Globe unI pto-ratl
for what has UCcn reported and published N
Tie intellIgeuccr durng tIa present Congress.
Mr. BJrlud thought tIey ought not 10 pay
for what has been published II the No;.JuL.
lu,cllIgCncer, aud saw no rcasUH Tor printing
ia that paper. the remainder OF the Senate de-
bates. Tue lu,cAgencet iormerly published
officially the debates, but reAuqul,AeI l"c CON
tract when the Presidential election came ON,
because by publishing speeches Oh both sides,
It was somewhat neutral paper. The Editors
therefore selected speeches on the Wing side
Z u serve party purposes, and now ask tU Jc pas
diem, for which he was not wiling.
Mr.. Swim thought the gentcmln mlstoCk
the object of the resolution, ana explained II
was to provide paying for the current speeches
published - SAID the lnte.lIgencer distinctly re-
| InQuIshed the contract because Of Insufficient
compensation. He was willing to pay Tor what
the paper has done, nothing beyond,
Mr.. Mason complmcnled the lntcllTencer
but was opposed to Tie teso.uuon.
Alter further debate the consideration of the
resolution was postponed untl. next Dccc.dber
The senate ;Acu went into EXccuiWc Ses
sion
When the doors were opened,
Mr.. Gw,n offered a resolution for the Sccre-
tary oftAc Senate to deposit with the Secretary
ol the Navy, 800, aud with the Collector OF

resolution was modified by cntrusuns the Sec

On uOliOH OF Mr. Seward it was resolved,
That the President OF the United States be
