New York, July 6.-The morning
papers contain the following specials
from Washington:
A general order has been issued by
direction of the President, that all de-
serters from the regular army who re-
join their regiments ut any military
post or recruiting rendezvous prior to
the 10Th of August, will be returned to
duty without punishment, on condition
that they will make up lost time, and
forfeit pay.
The Committee of Conference on the
tax bill have agreed upon the following,
among other provisions: While street
railways can increase their single fares
one cent, to cover the tax, proViso
requires that they shall sell tickets by
the package with only the exact tax
added to the regular rate.
The paper bill stands as fixed by the
Senate, viz: Printing paper of all de-
scriptions is free, and other paper is
taxed three per cent. nd valorem. The
tax OF one-tenth of one per cent on all
auction sales was agreed to.
The tax on ready-made clothing was
fixed at two per cent, tailors, milliners
and shOemakers to be exempt from tax,
and in the House bill, when their work,
exclusive of material, does not exceed
81 200 annually.
Cordage, rope and cable, made of
vegetable tibres, were put on the free
list.
General Sherman will be in New
York on the It'll, Philadelphia on the
9th, Boston on the 18th. On the 18th
he will be at Dartmouth college, where
his nephew graduates.
The Treasury Department is busily
engaged in preparing the final and Off
cial statement of the public debt for
the fiscal year ending June Both, 1866;
1t will not, therefore, publish the usual
informal monthly statement for July
LIST. From four to six weeks will proba-
bly, expire before the various accounts

cation.
The Washburne Investigation Com

Thomas G. Parker, Superintendent
of Indian Affairs at Carson city, Neva-
da, reports to commissioner Cody,
that the Indians in that superinten-
dency are all in good health, peaceable
and quiet on the TruCkee river reserva-
ton. A few acres of land have been
ploughed, and the Pahulahs have
planted potatoes and n variety of other
vegetables. They seem to be well
pleased with the idea, and work faith
fully. Agent Campbell, Mt Walker
river reservation, has also caused n
few acres of land to be ploughed and
sown. Superintendent arker believes
that these experiments will do much
to impress the Indians with the idea of
permanent, substantial and systematic
urminE,

New York, July 6.-The Herald's
foreign correspondence shows that the
monarchs and people were evidently
astonished at the bold and successful
movements of the Prussians in, Sax
ony. The result of the occupation OF
Dresden and Leipsic produced con-
siderable establishment among the citi-
zens of Vienna, but nothing like con-
steLnation or excitement. The utmost
and careful secrecy was maintained
relative to Austrian plan of campaign.
It was alleged in Paris that the Paris
ians detested the Prussians and the
policy of Prussia, while on the other
hand we are informed from Berlin that
the Emperor of France is in hearty ac-
cord with Bismark and King Frederick
William. 1t appears as if Napoleon
was simply confused. The Italian vol
unteers on the right bank of the Pc
are IN sight of Calaen and Italian sem
tinels are doing duty for Austria.
The Duke de Charles, Louis Phillips
grandson, rendered his services as an
officer to Victor Emanuel, but the offer
was declined by the Italian cabinet.

land Fire.
PORTLAND, ME-, July Give car
loads of provision came down from
Boston last night and is being distribu-
ted to the people. a fire company
of so men strong, from abroad, have
been working all night on the ruins.
Large amounts of supplies have came
in from various places. They were
greatly needed. Most of the provision
hardly anything left to be bought,
and our people were mostly living on
bread. The Atheneum library was to-
tally destroyed. The City BpiIding and
Custom House blazed up again this
morning and occasioned another alarm.
The city was in darkness last night,
owing to the gas being cut off. A rain
is falling now, but it is scarcely needed
as the flames were so fierce that all the
vegetation is burned off the ground
The First and Second National Banks
funds and securities are all saved.
There is no doubt in regard to any of the
others. Ira p. Harrington should be add
ed to the list of dealers who suffered.
The brass work establishment of L..
Crockett was not burned as reported.
The tremendous exertions to save
Winslow 81 Dolin's planning mill were
successful, which saved Commercial
street and the lower side of Free street.
The National Traders Bank papers and
money are all safe, also the papers ofthe
Ocean Insurance Company. Workmen
are busy clearing away the ruins, and
everybodyis at work getting into tenn
porary residences and places of bust
ness. Ourshade trees are mostly ruined.
Newspaper offices are issuing slips and
will probably go out of town to print
for the present, owing to the noble
charity of other towns and cities. No
one is suffering for food.

The Newly Opened Ports in Japan.

The London Pal Mall Gazette of January 6
,iYes the following interesting account of The
.wo japanese ports just opened to foreign trade:
THE FREE PORTS OF JAPAN.
'STle telegram from Gale announcing that the
Mikido OF Japan has given his sanction TO the
opeIing OF the ports OF Osacca, or Ohotaka, and
Hiago to foreign trade, Is important. These
plaes, which are only about dozen miles sepa
rat, afford the most impOr ant commercial posi-
tioa in the land of the Rising Sun, and admis-
So to them may be expected to result in very
considerable increase of our trade with that
cantry. Indeed, it is likely 10 be of more con-
sequence than all the other privileges which our
teaty conters.
"Sir Harry Parkes is a very energetic Minister
eservedly popular with the. British community
the far East, and his action IN the matter may
AVE mad some immediate effect; but the opening
Of these two ports-HiagO as port where
foreign ships might lie and foreigners reside,
Ohotaka as place where trade might be carried
on without the privilege of residence-was only
q question of time. In Lord Elgin's treaty with
Japan it was stipulated that British subjects
were to be admitted to them in 1858; but in 1862
the Taicoon and Japanese ambassadors TO Eng
land prevailed upon Earl Russell to postpone
the carrying out of this arrangement by grant
ing other privileges, such as an open port in the
island OF Tsusima, and by urgently representing
10 him that novel intercourse with strangers had
brought their country TO the verge of revolu'
tion, and that the Government wanted time to
deal with the disturbing influences thus intro
duced. 1t was understood, however, that the
original arrangement was to be carried out as
soon as the Japanese authorities could effect il
with safety; and if the kilograms can be trusted
this Is now done.
"Ohotaka is a very large town. covering semi
circle of nearly ten miles a. the eastern end o.
the Su.Wo NADIA OF inland sea OF Japan, and a
The mouth of the river Engawa, which runs
