WASHINGTON. June 6.-The specials are not
of great importance this morning.
The Herald says:
Those Interested in the House tax DILL as it
passed the Senate to-day, can form some idea of
the changes made in it by the remark of a Sena-
tor this evening, that the House will hardly be
able to recognize its own offspring. The House
will probably discuss and reject many of the
Senate amendments. This will consume much
time, Notwithstanding the desire manifested that
such a bill should speedily pass.
The TImes's dispatch says:
1t is now conceded that our loss in killed and
wounded at the battle of Fair Oaks was much
larger than at first stated. 1t will probably reach
I 900.
The correspondent of the Newark Advertiser
on board United States steamer Augusta, off
Charleston, South Carolina, SAYS:
| have barely time to forward a letter by the
prize Just captured off this place, which is on its
way northward. The news here is quite import
ant. Our g~unboats are within four miles of
Charleston, BY way of Shorie Inlet, and we all
expect soon to attack it.
The Tribune editorially says:
We learn through a private channel, in which
we cOnfde, that the Uuionists of Texas will soon
be heard from. We understand that their ar
engagements for restoring their State to the Union
have been quietly matured, and that they have,
ere this, thrown the old flag to the breeze, under
the lead or Gen. Sam. Houston. We cherish
strong hopes that the rebels of Texas will soon
turn up missing, and not "Old Sam" and Uncle
Sam" will have possession of the State. We
await further tidings with lively interest.
The Tribune's despatch says:
Col. George F.. Shipley, of Maine, who is at
present military commandant of New Orleans,
has, upon the recommendation of Gen. Butler.
been appointed Military Governor of Louisiana.
Capt. Schultz arrived to-day with the treaty
with Great Britain for the suppression of the slave
trade, signed by the Queen. Notifications nav
ing been exchanged. the treaty is now law.
1t appears that 40 prizes have been taken by
our cruisers. In consequence of the delay ofGov-
eminent officers in condemning the rebel vessels
and cargOes captured, it is impossible to state the
value of the prizes, hence no estimate can be
made of the enormous amount of prize money to
be distributed among the sailors in the naval ser
vice. Some idea may be formed. however, of
the total, by the single case of the Circassian,
which arrived ut New York a few days ago.
This vessel and cargo is valued at a million
and a halt dollars. The sailors who captured
her will probably receive 81 300 each. 1t is said
there are some fifteen vessels equally as valuable,
were trying to run the BLOCKADE.
1t is~said t~hatEnglish spectators in arms have
shipped about 10000 English rifles TO Nassau,
where they dispose of them to rebel agents who
reship them in the expectation OF running the
blockade This is the way the British have been
acting as %neutrals towards us in order to prevent
the horrors of civil war.

McCLELLAN's HEADQUARTERS, June S.-The

on the pickets of Gen. Sumner, who had advan-

that the Federals were driven out into the Chick
ahominy and swamps, and Mcclellan sent flags
of truce for permission to bury his dead. Both
statements RE false.
