I left the blockading fleet oft Mobile on yes- terday noon. The health of the squadron was good, and all were on the qui vive for prizes. On Monday night Lieutenant Watson, of the flagship Hartford, and Mr. McKinley, the Ad- mirai’s private secretary, made a reconnous- sance of the entrance of Mobile Bay in asmall boat from the flagsbip. Under cover of the darkness they pulled quiteinto the harbor, and moved about among Buchanan’s fleet of three iron-clads, which lay close inside Mobile Point, with impunity. Much valuable information of the nature of the defences, the disposition of the Rebel iron-clads, and the bearing of their forts was obtained by this daring adventure. The boat returned to the fleet atits leisure, not having been discovered by the Rebels, though frequently in so clese proximity to them as to hear conversation among their officers and men on the decks of their vessels. The Monitor Manhattan has arrived, and is stationed within easy range ot the Rebel forts, watching the movements of their iron-clads. The Rebels seem pertectly indifferent to her presence, or else are averse to disclos! their weight of metal, as they have thus far re- frained from firing ashotather. She has also been satisfied with being let alone, and Rasnot troubled the enemy with her guns. From Califernia. San Fraxcisco, August 10—The .

Nashville Licenses ior ‘*General Business,” Among the provisions of the new Internal Tax law, in regard to “licenses,” is one which was notin the original bill or in the House amendments, but which was putin by the Sen- ate and adopted by the House. Thesectionsin regard to license specify variousemploy ments, trades and protessions for which license is re- quired. But thenew provision makes a whole- sale sweep by declaring that a license fee of ten dollars shall be required ‘of every person, firm or corporstion engaged in any business, trade or profession whatever, for which no other li- cense is required, whose gross annual receipts therefor exceed one thousond dollars.” ‘The application is so extensive that it would seem to take in all classes of persons. prosecuting business, and render ubneccessary all those Portions of the act which specify the parties Tequir'd to tame out license at the rate of ten dollars per annum. As the words appear above quoted they are extensive in their signification, but a decision or Commissioner Lewis, just published, ren. | ders ibem so general in their operations that they would seem to embrace the case of every person who makes more than one thousand dollars a year by his own labor or industry. In the first place, he decides that where a per- son licensed to follow a particular business, also follows another which yields him more than one thousand dollars a year from that source, he must take out An additional license It his combived profits are more than the sum named, but neither occupation produces one thousand dollars, no license is required.
