The House I rpftwle from its views refuses to agree to the deficiency clause inserted by the Senate, and the Senate refuses to accede to the clause to pay the interest on the public debt.

Stillson, tele graphs a blood-curdling stdry of two Mormon attempts to assassinate him. The first time was last Saturday eve umcr, when be was unsuccessfully I ned upon in bis buggy from ambush. . I The second attempt was yesterday, when a miscreant, who resembled the would-be assassin o the first occa sion, paid Stillson a domiciliary visit, and when the latter reached ont his hand to receive a paper purporting to be of interest to him, the Mormon wretch pulled out a knife, and, with an oath, lunged at the newspaper scribe, who, however, escaped with a scratch.

Th e Fire Yesterday . The alarm of fire yesterday, 'about 12 o'clock, was caused by the burning of a small house on the corner of Front and Mearess street, belonging to tbe estate of Larry Williams, deceased, and occupied by a Mrs. Kershaw, who lost all of her efleojP but twoxhairs and a table, and is in desti- tute circumstances. The origin of the fire is unknown. The house had been burning fori some time before the alarm was given, and was consequently destroyed ere the engines and hook and ladder truck could reach the scene of. the fire, they having been turned back by the information that their .services Would-be of no avail. - MORE THIEVES CAPTURED, Discovery of Various Articles of Sto len Property and Capture of a Noted Tli let-Mow Rail Game Aaont Ar rest of a Confederate, &e. Yesterday morning a colored man by the name of West, in the employ of ex-Mayor Canaday, was in tbe neighborhood of the market house, when be saw a colored wo man with a basket of dressed chickens, which she was endeavoring to sell. West was approaching the woman, thinking that perhaps these were the chickens stolen from Mr. Canaday's coop Friday night, alluded to elsewhere, when the woman, seeing West, and apparently divining his inten tions, started off hurriedly with tbe view of getting away. West thereupon called to H. Strode, who was near by, and gave him an inkling of the state of affairs. when Strode started after the woman.over took her, and earned her to Justice Gard ner's office. Upon being questioned she gave ber name as Lucy Nixon, and finally confessed, and made affidavit to tbe fact that tbe chickens were given to her by one Robert Ellerby to sell for him; that he had brought them to her house, together with a number of other articles which she pro ceeded to enumerate. A search warrant was thereupon issued and placed in the hands of Officer N. Carr, who proceeded to the bouse of Lucy Nixon, corner of Eleventh and Ann streets, where Ellerby was stopping. Here it becomes necessary to state that previous to the above facts transpiring Deputy Sheriff T. C. Miller, armed with a capias placed in his hands by Sheriff Man ning, for tbe arrest of Ellerby, on the charge of being implicated in the robbery of the store of Mr. T. H. Smith, in the early part of last year, had been directed to the same house, where, with the assis tance of J. A. Ashe, he had succeeded in capturing tbe individual. Ellerby, who was lounging in tbe front piazza, saw the officer approaching and attempted to make his escape through the back door, when he discovered Ashe ensconced in tbe bushes in his front yard, raised a stick and pointed it at him, when Ellerby, thinking it was a gun, made a halt. Officer Miller then took his prisoner in charge and marched him down to the county jail. When, therefore, Officer Carr reached the house of Lucy Nixon, Ellerby was already in the hands of the law ; but he proceeded to search the house and succeed ed in discovering a clock and dictionary, which were stolen some month since from St. James' Home; a pitch fork and pea digger, belonging to Mr. S. W. Nobles, the latter having the initials of bis name upon tbe handle, and Which were stolen the same night that his ben coop was robbed; two guns, which were no doubt the ones used in firing upon Mr. Oscar Grant some weeks since; a number of live chickens, and seven teen freshly severed chicken heads, no doubt belonging to those stolen from ex Mayor Canaday. Everything about tbe premises was covered with feathers from chickens recently slaughtered, and there was every indication that this house had long been tbe headquarters of a band of thieves, of which Ellerby was probably tbe ringleader. Richard Nixon, the husband of the woman alluded to, was arrested, and a warrant was also served on Ellerby, the two being required to give a justified bond in the sum of $500 each for their appear ance at the session of the Criminal Court commencing to-morrow, in default of which they were committed to jail, Ellerby being already held under the capias referred to. Officer Carr subsequently visited the Nix on premises in company with Mr. Taylor, of the National Cemetery, who recognized some of tbe chickens as among those stolen from him during the latter part of last week, and also identified a handsaw which was stolen from him at tne same time, and which is the property of tbe go vernment. In addition to tbe above, Off! cer Carr discovered a pair of scales and weights, which were subsequently identified as among the articles stolen a few weeks since from Mr. McEarchin, when his store was broken open. Ellerby has no doubt bad a band in the most of the robberies that have occurred in Wilmington for years past, and it is a matter for congratulation that he has at last been brought to an account. Lucy Nixon was released on her own recognizance to appear as a State's witness Reported Fire at Rocky Point. It was reported in this city yesterday that the kitchen on the premises of James B McPherosn, at Rocky Point, was destroyed bv fire on Friday night. There was stored in the building, which was used as a barn about 1,200 bushels of peas and 400 er 500 f bushels of corn. There was an insurance of $1,300 on the stock in companies repre sented by Messrs. Taylor & Giles, of this city. Another barn, containing a large amount of stock, and also tbe dwelling, but a short distance from the building, were reported destroyed, and must have made a narrow escape. Mr. McPhersou was in this city when he heard of hialosa. From E crypt. The many friends of Gen. R. E.

Thieves made a raid upon tbe premises of Mayor Canaday, corner of Market and Seventeenth streets.Friday night, and stole all of his poultry, consisting of seventeen fine Brahmas. It seems that they had been waiting for seven years for Mr. Canaday to get out of his positions of City Marshal and Mayor, in order to try their hand at depredating upon his property, and took advantage of the first opportunity that pre sented itself, stealing his chickens tbe first night after he had been relieved of the cares and responsibilities of office. A short time previously tbe residence of Mr. Thomas Monk, truck gardener, a little further up the road, was entered by a thief, who bored holes with an auger around the ock of the door and removed it; but the villain was probably frightened off, as he took only one old coat, belonging to Mr. Monk's son, and left a five dollar bill and a box of matches on the mantel-piece in the room from which the coat was taken, which more than paid for tbe garment. They next stole Mr. Taylor's poultry, at the National Cemetery, between the resi dence of Mr. Monk and Mayor Canaday, and now in regular course they have cleaned out the stock of the latter.

Obtaining money Under False Pre tenses. A colored man by tbe name of Joseph Pickett bought a horse of Mr. C. B. Futcb in March, 1875, for which he was to pay $80. He paidj$30 in cash, and gave Mr. Futcb a mortgage on the horse and a mule for the remaining $50, Pickett stating posi tively that there was no sort of incum brance upon the mule, for which he said he paid $150. In the meantime the horse died, and recently Mr. Futch called for a settlement, when one Peter Pickett set up a claim to one half of the mule in question, saying that he bad paid one half of the purchase money. The matter came up for a hearing before Justice Gardner, yester day, when the claim of Peter Pickett was sustained, and Joe Pickett was ordered to give bond in the sum of $200 for his ap pearance at the Criminal Ucurt, to answer to the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. Died In Savannah. Mr. John Gammell, a former resident of Wilmington, died in Savannah a few days since. The Morning Nem has the following f in reference to the funeral: "Tbe funeral ot this highly esteemed and greatly lamented citizen took place yester day afternoon at lour o'ciock irom St. John's Episcopal Church, and was very largely attended. The beautiful and im pressive services of tbe Episcopal Church were performed by nev, Bamuei .Benedict, assisted by Rev. Mr. H. Dunlop. The singing was deeply impressive and the oc casion one of unusual solemnity. The floral tributes laid upon the casket contain ing the mortal remains of one who had de parted from a sphere which he adorned and valued in every respect, and of which he was an honored and useful member, were numerous and beautiful. Tbe cortege was one of the largest ever witnessed at the obsequies of a private cit izen, and evinced tbe universal regret which was felt in tbe community at the loss of a valued member." j Reported Killed " There was a report on the streets yester day to the effect that Thos.
