\ FRUITLESS DAY IN TIE HOUSE.
IMPORTANT THINGS ATTEVPTrD But NOTHING &C

CONlPLi>ITFp,
lBY rErFGEAPH TO TuE TRIBUSEI
W'SHISGro>, Feb. 3.-The House failed TO accom-
psh anything to-day although some very impor-
tant legislation WAS attempted.
Notwithstanding that there remain only twenty
four working days in this Congress, a number Of
new bills were introdu'.I. among them
being one appropriatiug SlUOO0OooO TO give
effect To the Arrears Of Pensions blil.
The same subjgct was brought before the
House on a motion to suspend the rule, and pass a
bill introduced by Mr.. Burchard. of Illinois. al hor-
iziug the issue OF per bond, to the amount Of
&4O,G0O,00O to pay The claimants under the act.
There was no debate allowed upon the bill,
and there was n very large majority of the
House for it, the vote standing l3O yeas to
II nays. 4 two-thirds vote was necessary. and
the bill failed. If any measure could be brought
before the House Ona report from committee so
that il could be passed by majority vote money TO
pay the arrears OF pensions could 0e provided but,
II Is doubtful whether 1t would be possible tor the
Ways and Means Committee, from which the bill
should come. to report such measure.
The Ways and Means Committee was not suc-
ccS.ful in Its attempt today to get special days
set for the consideration of the general business Of
the committee and for the Su.dT Tariff bill. The
Committee made joint proposition that day
should he set apart for the consideration OF U-
gr cral business, and another for the sugar
mll. Il was evidently expected that the desire ON
the part of member. TO secure the passage OF several
important hIll, ot q general character pending be-
fore the committee would induce two-thrds 10
vote for the sugar ass gnment also. In tins the
managers were mistaken, tht vote beng IoO ayes
to 9~ nays not the necessary twO-thlrls.
Had the question been divided undoubtedly the
committee could bdvc secured day Tor T. general
business but 1t H. evident tuat tWo-thrd, VIII not
agree 10 consider the surar taUf. There is a large
lobby on both II les ot thi1 question. One lobby
represent, tine refining interest and one the planting
interest Tire people who are the consumers ami
taxpayers Ctm 10 have no representative.

A AND CoNKLING.

"That is the ticket the New York
republicans will ask the national con-
vention to give the party next year."
tays the New York correspondent of
the Chicago Journal. With it we can
sweep the empire state by 10000 ma
jority, beyond peradventure, no matter
who may be in the field against them,
Gen. Grant is now almost as popular
among a large portion of democrats rs
among the republicans. Fully one-half
Of the democrats with whom l converse
assert that they will vote for him il he
is put in nomination in 1880. The
truth is, however, many of the demo-
Gratis themselves are becoming offend
ed at the course of the south, and think
that it is time to place a check upon
them.
As for Senator Conkling, he would
much prefer TO remain a senator to be-
ing placed in the 1gure-head position
OF vice president; but il 1t shall appear
that his nomination as vice president,
along with Gen. Grant, will increase
the republican majority in New York,
he will, his friends assert, take the
nomination. What a lively campaign
we should Ehave with such a ticket!
Senator Conkling is popular with the
New York democrats because he is a
positive man; when he fights them he
fights them with all his might, and who
does not like an open and a bold an
tagonist?
