LONDON, June l9.-rhe Paris correspon-
dent OF the Times, IN a letter revie wing the
present attitude OF the Eastern question,
concludes as fOllows:-Tne Gar yesterday,
in taking leave Of a lady who wished him a
good journey, replied with uudisg uised sat-
lsfaction: - hope 4 shall spend more tran
gull days at gauheim tnan those 1 have
passed at Ems Such a remark as this is
tantamo1nt TO a specific promise, aud 10
may be inferred that tue European powers
are determined 10 remain spectators OF what
passes between Turkey ana her subjects aud
yaSsals. This does not mean that Ine pacl-
hcatiCn OF Turkey is an accomplished fact
or that we are on the eve OF It's being ef-
fected. The Insurgents do not seem disposed
10 lay down their arms nor Montenegro aud
Serv1a 10 abandon their pretensiOl OF an
neXing the one Herzegovina and the other
Bosnia, with the consent OF Turkey herself,
but what is known 10 day appears 10 indi-
cate that none OF the European powers will
support the insurgents and their neighbors.
Though none will endeavor 10 thwart their
designs, aud when the insurgents aud the
Porte come face 10 face and Europe Is seen
10 remain spectator, this instruction will
perhaps finish as 10 began. That Is, without
anybody knowing the reason WY. At the
present moment every body, particularly the
six powers, are convinced that peace will
not be disturbed beyond the frontier of
Turkey.

DESTRUCTIVE EIsE AT HUDSON.
Four Hundred Thousand Dollars
lyamAEe.

HUDSON. y. ", June I9.-About l. O'Clock
last night a IRE broke out In the engine room
OF the propeller John Taylor, lying at the
dock Of the Athens and Schenectady rail-
road, opposite this city, and the names
rapidly extended 20 the other vessels at the
dock aud to the depot buildings which were
almost totally destroyed. The vessels
burned were the John Taylor, the barge
hercules, loaded with sugar, and the canal
boat Stephen Warren with a cargo OF mer-
cbandise. The vessel belonged 10 the line Of
John n Starin. The large depot, 600 long,
build at great expense by Daniel Drew, and
known as the white Elephant" was nearly
destroyed with lis contents, including
freights. One hundred freight cars standing
on the track aud loaded with -four, corn,
oats, and tobacco were totally consumed.
This freight was consigned 20 Messrs. David
BOWS, Siillwell a Co, Jessie HOyt, and
OILERS OF New York. The depot belonged TO
the New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad Company, all the books aud papers
OF the railroad company and OF Starin's line
were saved. The loss is about four hundred
thousand dollars. At present the detailed
losses and amount OF insurance cannot be
sscertained. The fire was purely accidental,
and would have been checked with small
loss but for the prevailing high wind. The
whole village was at one time in imminent
danger, but by the exertions OF the dremen
the flames were confined TO the dock vicinity.

which was read twice and referred back TO

iatlng exclusively to government business,
without the worse than useless trouble and
ranking" such matter,
Not having seen the text Of this proposed
law In any newspaper, take the liberty of
a sai you 10 publish 1t, in the earnest hope
consideration OF Congress. 1t is as follows:
"Be IL enacted, &c, That 1t shall be lawful to
transmit through the mail, free of postage,
any letters, packages or other matters re-
lating exclusively to the business of the
goVernn emit of the United States: Provided
Inat every such letter or package, to entitle
'oftcial business an endorsement showing
also the name of the department, and, III
IRON bureau or office, the names of the de-
partment and bureau or office, as the case
may be, whence transmitted. And IL any
person shall make use of any such officia
envelope to avoid the payment of postage on
matter In the NJ all, the person so OFFENDING
shall be deemed guilty OF q misdemeanor,
and subject to fine of three hundred dol

mating the department in which they are to

By the passage OF this simple act, greater

vides for the restoration OF the franking
