A destructivé conflagration began yesterday evening at Ocean Well, Petroleum Center. Pa_ The flames spread rapidly to the oil tanks of the Ocean Oil Company, of Philadelphia. Five wells belonging to Breeden & Myers and Breeden & Tennent, lessees, were soon en- veloped in one huge mass of flame, with no earthly means of checking tne fearfal tide. The fire raged onward down the run, the figme communicating with everything combustible, and sweeping every object before it. it soon founda channel which carried the barning mass into Binnehoff’s run, catching in its ‘way three refineries, some thirty or more bnildings, and several wells in the progress of Grilling. in less than fifieen minutes from the breaking ont of the fire the flame was nearly one milein length. The loss is estimated at $150,000, Patterson & Dickey with the Ocean ‘Weill Company are the heaviest losers.

The following are the reasons assigned by Edward W. Green, the Malden murderer, in his petition to the Supreme Court of Massa- chusetts, asking fora writ of error: First. That the court had no power to enter judgment and award sentence ofgieath against the defendant upon plea without the intervention of a jury Second. That the plea of the defendant in legal effect is not such an admission of guilt as will support the sentence passed by the court. Third. lt nowhere appears on record that the crime for which the defendant has been sentenced was murder in the first degree The case is to be argued before the Supreme Court. The Flag newspaper of San Francisco, Cal., having charged the members of the State Senate with bribery in the passage of the special-cuntract vessel act, an investigating committee was appointed, and D.O.

THE ARREST OF A MAN SUPPOSED TO BE QUANTRELL.—It has already been stated that & man supposed to be (Luantrell, the notorious Kaneas guerrilla, has been arrested in New York, sent to Washington, and committed to prison. Itappears the prisoner was stoppiag at a private boarding-house in New York, under the name of Hamilton. He denied that he was Quanirell, but acknowledged that he bad served in the Confederate army durir’ the war. Letters and documents of an important character: are said to haye been found in nis possession. Soon after his arrest Senator Lane and Mrs, Lane,of Kansas, had an interview with him, but failed to identify him as QJuan- trell. The Tribune says: Mrs. Lane had seen and talked with Quan- trell when he burned down her residence, du- ring one of his raids in the summer of I%G4, but she was so nervous and excited at that ume, altbongh she gave a very accurate description of his appearance, when brought tace to tace with the prisoner she could not identify him. He was taken to Washington in irons. The prisoner, in his manner and personal appearance, bears @ most striking resemblance to the guerrilla leader. Heis a tall, well-made man, about 35 years of age, of a pure blonde comple xion, golden hair and beard, and bright laughing blue eye. His manners are refined and gentlemanly, and be speaks with a very pleasing address aud quiet persuasive elo. quence, and in this respect more than any other trait does be resembie the guerrilla Quantrell. Whether he is the rebel they take him for, ot merely the victim ofan accidental resemblance, time alone will discover.
