A Cull Cabinet meeting of nearly four hours in length ‘was hold to-day, The return of Secretary Seward and j@ttorney General Speed and the restored health of the Prosident induced the consideration, it is said, of a large umber of prosaing affairs. INTERNAL REVENUB RECEIPTS. From tho 1st of July up to noon to-day the receipts of ‘tho Bureau of Internal Revenue amounted to thirty-two imiliions of dollars, Tbe increase bas been heavy for ‘eeveral days past from the income tax and will continue to bo for some‘weeks to come. Ncw questions are ®onstantly arising for decision, in which parties , @laim theirs to be peculiar cases not contemplated yy the framers of the law, and not to be governed any fixed rulers. Many of them rest on slender foundations, but an occasional one really presents mew features, Since taxation has become enormous an immense amount of ingenuity is constantly displayed in attempts to evade our laws regulating custome, even those dating as far back as 1798. INTRENAL REVENUE DECISIONS. ‘The Commissioner of Internal Revenue makes the fol- lowing decisions public to-day :— Monthly returns of insurance companies need not in- clude premium notes. A builder's or contractor's license covers hig business if he makes no article subject to duty as a manufacture; ‘but if he makes such icles to an amount exceeding one thousand dollars annuaily, he must also Dave a Acens? as a manufacturer. In such a case the amount of business covered by the manufacturer's license nay be deducted from the gross amount of contracts. aauty licensed commercial broker@may negotiate a sale of liquors from one dealer to another without addi- tional licenso; but if at any time the liquors shall be in his custody or under his contraiahe will require a license a liquor dealer on account’of such negotiations of le8. Under the statutes of Kentucky a lien is retained upon Jand conveyed for the payment of purchase sum, if in any way the amount remaining unpaid appears in the dood. If notes for such unpaid sums are also given tho ‘notes are liable to stamp duty. PERSONAL. Major General Seth Williams, Inspector General on the staff of General Grant, returned yesterday from an official yisit tot. Louis. Brigadior General Dent will also re- tarn this week. General Grant and family are expected to return to this city promptly on the 20th inst. Attornoy General Speed is at his post again, something ‘fresher for his enjoyment at Cape May. 4 Mr. S. Yorke Atlee, of the Treasury Department, starts ~on Thursday to visit and inspect all the marine hospitals Ja the United States, beginning at Boston. RAILROAD LINE TO RICHMOND. ‘The Orange and Alexandria Railroad yesterday per- * fected its line to Richmond by obtaining possession of tho Washington and Alexandria Railroad, THE NAVAJOE INDIAN TRIBF. Secretary Harlan and Judge Cooloy, Commissioner of ~@he Indian Bureau, roturned. this morning from their | -@onference with the Society of Friends in Philadelphia ‘relative to certain propositions emanating from the latter 4davolving a change in tho condition of the Navajoe Indian tribe of New Mexico. Tho interview in question took place yesterday afternoon at the Continental Hotel, ‘and was satisfactory. The Navajoes are asemi-civilized ‘tribe, numbering about twelve thousand, and probably have made more original progress in the primary arts :@han any other tribe now extant. The Society of Friends Propose to send out a large number of agents among the (Navajoes, and establish industrial schools in their midst] with a viow of ultimately bringing them entirely within the palo of civilization. Though this undertaking will be Midd at the expense of the society, it is still pro- [poaod to place tho work under government auspices, and ‘an agent of the latter, resident at the point where the .wehools are founded, will exercise a controlling super. vision over the conduct of the educational system. “Though tho plans thus prosented are not cntirely setuled upon, it ts believed that the action of the friends who mot to-day in Philadelphia will finally dispose of the «matter, Thore is no doubt that the government will saccopt the proffer thus made, and will speedily close with the. Propositions that ‘are to be formally presented do tho Intorior Department some time during the present ‘week. . PROMOTION. Brovet Brigadior Genera! George P.

Counting the Cost of the Forlificatione—Growing Discon- tent—Corruption and Mismanagement in the Excise De- partment—Unsatirfactory End of the Police Investiga- tion—Government Inquiry Called for, dc. A growing feeling of discontent is exhibited through- out the country with relation to the Fortification bill, which, it is” believed, the ministry will submit to Parlia- ment during the coming session. The people do not seem willing that millions should be laid out in erecting fortifications to defend a few of our largest cities while those fortifications would yot prevent the surroypding country frop ‘Sefng overrun, and would not even pro- servo communication betweon Upper Canada and Quebec. Tn case of war between the United States and England it is admitted that your Sreope would overrun the country, notwithstanding these fortifications, and that any damage tho British fleet might do to your scaport cities would be but poor compensation to Canadians for the destruction of their property.

Our internal affairs are not in the most prosperous state, It is asserted that frauds of great magnitude are being committed against the inland revenue, and that the officers whose care it is to prevent these frauds are cither incompetent to check them, or are snubbed and their remonstrances and reports disregarded at head- warters.

Genorat Duly was cxeceding wrath, of course, made known his loss to the police and inserted an advertisoment in the Herat, offering one hundred dollars reward for the covery ot his black horse, “fifteen hands high, long black mano and tail, with one white hind foot and a white spor upon the back.” Ho also added & apecific clause for the particular benefit of “the colored man, Hurdy, aged twenty-nine, drossed in a gray sack, blue military pants, black felt hat, with a wide brim,” &c., &c., who was sus: pected of having converted the before mentioned quad- ruped to lis own individual uses. The public stables were visited. The police detect.ves were put upon tho scent, It was suggested by one astute individual that the an mat might have buen stolen and the negro garroted or kidnapped, carried to Africa, | would in t-me be taken to some slaveholding country and thore dixpored of to the wicked white man supposed tobe engaged inthe traffic in human flesh. But all were wrong. On Monday evening officer Young discov. cred the m ssing man and horse at # private stable in the Twonty sixth precinct. It seems that the negro bad been faithful all the while, iy bad taken the an! wo the wrong livery keeper.

There were several visitors present who listened with much attention to the proceedings, and Professor Tilln eeretary of the American Insti- tute, occupied the chair. The questions discussed by the gentlemen present wore of interest without being of special importance. Owing to the fuct that but little publicity has hitherto beem | given to the doings of the Club, comparatively fow attoud its meetings, and, as a consequence, these few can cite none but instances of porsonal experience, without being able (o solve any one grand problem.

Mr. Doty, of Wisconsin, exhibited to the club an in- vention of his own for pruning off high trees without the use of a ladder. Dr. Trimble, of New Jersey, produced seversl of the worms now destroying tho apple, pear and quits crop’ of the country.

Mr. Solon Robinson read a letter from a farmer ig Pooria, Ill., relative to the discust of the grapevines. Tho writer declared that sulphur had: no effect whatever.
