Sir: I think it well to communicate to you the decisions at which lrer Majesty’s Govern ment have arrived on certain questions which have arisen respecting the treatment of prizes captured by Federal or (Jonfeijerate cruisers, if brought into English waters: 1. If any prize captured by a ship of war of cither ot the belligerent powers tlntil he brought by the captors within her Majesty’s jurisdiction, notice shall be given bytireGov ernor to tlie captors immediately to depart and remove such prizes. 2. A vessel which shall hare been actually and bone fida converted into ami used as a pub lic vessel of war shall not he deemed lo be a prize within the meaning of these rules 3. If any prizes shall bs brought within her Majesty’s juridicti in through ra re stress of weather dr other extreme or unavoidable ne cessity, the Governor m iy allow for her re moval such time as he may consider to he ne- cessary. 4. If any prize shall not be removed ot Ihe time prescribed to the captors by the (Liv - crnoi, the Governor may detain such prize un til her uiajisly's pleasure shall bt made known. 5.

The Ttibune’s IVashington special says, it is now settled that ttio question of filling Mr. GieCo s place aud the dnJterea.e between the President and Secretary Chase about the new lax bill led to t..e lattei's resignation. Judge Leach, solicitor of auditor’s bureau, thiid aud itor at Kim,on, and. Harrington, assistant se cretary of the treasury, and Crittenden, the register have rosigned. The minority rtport on the treasury investi gation says there is no evidence that a dollar has been liaudulently issued. The committee Cud that ths superintendent of the note printing bureau has been a faithful officer. They say the evidence utterly fails to sustain the charge against F. P. Blair.

The comaaanicatioH of ex-Secretary of the treasury Hon. S. P. Chase, which he sent to the committee of ways aui means, on the 29th of June, says the aggregate revenue from all sources for the year closing with the Sfllh nit., will reach $242,900,000; the expense excluding two mouths' pay of the army duly Jst, is near $680,000,000. The amount in sxoess of tlie revenue is therefore $610,000,000 Taking the highest amount extimated, assuming tuiscellane ous receipts, which will reach $35,000,000, the whole amount of revenue for next year cannot be set down at more than $318,000,000. The expenditntes are likely to reach $850,000,000; and 450.000,000 is to be raised by loans. The loan bill provides for only $40,000,000, and that is lhe,iargest sum, yu the judgment of Mr. Chase, that can be reasonably attempt, td. There remains then, $82,000,000 to be provided for, aud all considerations of public interest seems to require imperatively that they he raised by an increase of revenue. He therefore, proposed to raise tho deficiency, be lieving that the chances proposed by him would produce in the difference between the rate on incomes by the old and new bill added to the tax of the current year $1,500,000 ; tax on leaf tobacco, iueteuie of tax on smoking tobacco, $(i,000,000 ; increase tax on malt liquors, $4,000,00J ; tax on dealer’s sales, $5,0 0,000 ; and the amount increased but brought from the uext currant yesjr, $2,- 000,000, making an aggregate qf an actual or virtual increase of $85,000,000.

One Fremont Explains his Position —The Boston Pioneer states that Mr. Heinzen and Wendell Phillips were recently invited by Fre mont to visit him at his summer residence, at Nabant, |Massaehusotts. The meeting was, of course, cf a political character, and Mr.Heinzen publishes the following report of it : We will prenjise tliai neither Mr. Phillips nor we left any question untouched from motives of false delicacy, but gave Gen. Fremont, ou the contrary, opportunity to declare himself on all those points against which the attacks of bis enemies hare ln-en directed. The itvu t of our few horns’ conveisation was, that we left the man tvt.d candidate, Fremont, fully satisfied, and that the confidence which \ye re posed in him formerly has been double strength ened. In regard lo tho overthrow of Hie rebellion, Gen. Fremont remarked that his position on this subject was too well known to require com ments front him. especially as lie bad declared himseil agreeing with that paragraph of the platfoi m which requires tlie overthrow of the rebellion by force of arm*, and without com promise. The unpunislii and and uneensured vio lations of law ou the put of Lincoln and his Cabinet had principally caused His anxiety for the republic, which was tints being, destroyed in its liinihunent-ul principles, while at the Same time morally undermined by an unparalleled corruption. Gen. Fremont said that a republic coil’d never gate by quell a war as this; but the dan ger would be vastly increased if stub arbitrary actions ou the part ot the government were not opposed at llje start. The arbitrary actions of Mr. Lincoln had brought tilings ro such a p iss that the question might be asked whether tlie republic could be bought for money ? The re election ot Lincoln ha 1 become altogether a money question* Hence Gen. Fremont con sidered it, above all, necessary to stir up the idea of law and order amongst the people, and thus mike them capable of saving the repub lic. His posi:tou on the slavery question was thus expressed: "Wo must not rest until slave ry is torn out by the roots.” As f*r negro 0 ;*, to them belong tho same rights which,- the whites enjoy. The word “white’A must be b.,nished from our statutes and insti litmus, ‘•Absolute < upulily of all men before . the law cqv«rs the whole ques tion.’’ 11l relation to the confiscation. question, Gen. Fremont stated, that he knew Southern conditions and Southern people ‘rum personal experience. With the paragraph of the Cleve land platform nobody could t-ilbct a reconatrurj tiou of the South. That paragraph says no thing of confiscating the lands of the rebel leaders, but speaks of rebel lands generally, and must be viewed as a measure of “revenge.’' Hence, its effect will be to incite all rebels to the utmost resistance and m rite them Brecon cible. Moreover, Gen. F. said he should be forced to entertain a very uufavtAabie opinion of the political insight of a party, which should al-loupt to reconstruct States out of a iamb an I moneyless population. lienee, die had opt widened it necessary to soften tho impression produced by this paragraph, and to.point out its possible effect, li confiscation wore to be ii.uifcd to the principal leaders ho should ugee to it. In respoct to th i position of tha Democratic party, Gen. Fremont said, that tue removal of Lmcoln’s Administration, which has placed us in a shameful position toward Europe, en dangered the republic by arbitrariness and corruption, and shown its total incapability to bring back the South into the Union even at lire greatest expense of lives and money, is of paramount necessity, upon which everything else depends. Fremont believes that the prolon gation of Lincoln’s lule will produce tlio sep aration of the South, which would be followed by a separation of the East and the West, re sulting finally in the destruction of the repub lic. Hence, iu view of ihe Immense impor tance which is to be attached to Lincoln’s re moval from Washington, and iri view of. the extraordinary power ho lias by virtue of his position, it becomes necessary to combine against him all elements of opposition, which may be applicable to the salvation of the re public,-aud of these elements the Democratic party furnishes the largest Contingent. In effecting this combination we must never think of denying our principles or giving up our platform. Let ng show tho Democrats the importance and necessity of a union at tire time of danger; and let us declare openly and lirmly our principles and objects, aud ex tend our band to them, if they share our E,e*nti mentri. We will remain true to oq, principles in every danger. "Il I could b»come presi dent,” said G -a, Fremont with an emphasis contrasting powerfully with his otherwise'so veily calm demeanor, “by giving up an iota oi my principles, especially in regard lo sla very, I should not do it—never, never l” H.was also suggested, that if the Democrats should join tire “Radical Democracy,’’.they might soon get control of Ihe party and change its ; rincqile.i. To this Fremont remarked : “If we are victorious, we have also the better por tion of the Republican party ou our side, anu a union of ail ihe liberal elements of the coun try will then make freedom the ruling policy ol our nation.” , The Florence National Democratic Commit tee have hold c.).—at Washington, and concurred m tho pu.-tponement of the Chicago Convention, by the Belmont Committee, air. .Florence, in H i paper, says that the commit tee was i- biu'd : th a spirit «f patriotism and devotion to the thee honored principles of the dviiioeiv-ti oi'.r'iy-. -ud deteimined to main tain its unity r.n<’ harmony; also that the meet ing w;"5 unaniK’otM in sentiment in favor of an armisti ; that should for a tiiue at least stop the boTi-bbi Cation of blood and waste of ire. ■ ich Pave chnricterized the last three yea;: '-«yon 1 any similar period in .histo ry, anonly ah tc.ined from passing resolutions inviting is Natl; : 1 Convention to form a phith-r" h- . ;ov ac; with these view;, nQ( ] nominate p-:«_ a re mUriates, by an apprehension °* over stepping their legitimate functions.
