Good Understanding With Other Foreign Governments. • RELEASE OF ymasoms FROM FORT LAFAYETTE. The Case of Colonel Corcoran. I=l The Rebel Privateers to be Regarded as Prisoners of War THE TAX BILL. Expected Annual Revenue of One Hundred and Fifty Millions of Dollars. ==l A NATIONAL BANKING LAW PROJECT. General Lane and General Hunter. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 Notwithstanding the alarms and croakings of some of the. foreign journals and letter writers about the stone blockades, and other sinister reports, the despatches received at the State Department, are regarded as conclusive of a complete restoration of the entiente cordiale between ,the United States and Great. Britain, and one of the best possible understanding of the governments of France, Italy and . other Continental States. Yesterday Secretary Sew ard and Lord Lyons. exchanged congratula lions on the adjustment of the Trent affair, in a spirit similar to that which, in the same case, animated Earl Russell and Minister Adams. The Secretary of State on Friday directed the release, from Fort Lafayette, of all the persons taken from on , bowl of, rebel armed:vessels, which order has been undoubtedly 'executed. It is true, as hag been stated, that General Wool, under instructions, asked General Huger whether,if Smite, the pirate, were delivered to him at. Norfolk, Celoriel Corcoran woald. be restored to liberty and sent north. The answer, in the negative, was on the ground of a differ ence in rank auto the two persons. - -Toe re-union at Secretary Seward's residence on Friday embraced the largest. attendance of members of the- diplomatic corps and their families that has been witnessed at any similar assemblage for a year past.` ' Washington society is cheerfully waiting only. for Congress to establish a financial system for the government, and for sunshine to dry up the roads for military purposes. Hon. Allred Ely, member of Congress from New York, and late prisoner at Richmond, had an interview with the President and Secretary Seward yesterday, •and it. :has been determined to place the rebel privateers, now in New York and Philadelphia, upon a footing of pri soners of war. An order has been issued re moving them to military prisons, with a view to their exchange for citizens of the United States incarcetatedin the South. This important Mid 'humane Militia on the part of government, may result in the return of Cols. Corcoran, Lee, Coggewell, Woodruff, - Wilcox, Hodges, and the other officers now held as hostages for these privateers. A general exchange of all the ptisoners will it is believed, speedily follow. The interview of Mr. Ely in conjunction with several of hie associatemembeis of the Housreef Representa tives, was not only interesting but is described as affecting. " • Lieut. Edward Connelly -of :the 69th New -York regiment and a prisoner .of war, - has. -ar rived from Columbia, South Caroline and was present at the interview with the President and Secretary of State. He repot ts that the health, of Col Corcoran and the other prisoners there was geed., It is understood that the tax bill is now being perfected in its details by the Committee on Ways lend' Means. It proposes a moderate rate of taxation :upon most of the articles of necessity and- consumption; with higher rates on distilled liquors and other ,articles of luxury; on legaciea and 'probates; on pas sengers by railroadd • and other conveyance; on newspapers and telegraphic messages.— From these sourpes taken. in connection with the tariff on the imports, it is confidently ex pected. after the most careful iniestigation, that the , government will derive an annual revenue,ot. at least one: lumdred and fifty mil lion dollars. This. tax ;bill giye the United States bouds a sure specie paying security. The have also considered the gab ject of a National banking law, -which will re quire,the deposits of United States stock as security, for the bank notes that are circulated as currency. . • ; The President in' conversation yesterday with Representative Conway,- of Kamm, stated that he appointed James H. Lane Brigadier General with the exprms understanding that he was to serve under General Hunter, and tbat General lane had frequently declared his 'willingness to -do so; that he,thePreeident, had, and has now, the, trongest desire to:,oblige Gen. Lane, and consequently he appointed a large , staff to suit and gratify him ; that while he hoped and expected an expedition somewhat to his liking. would be sent forward under him, he expected it to be dope by. an amicable ar rangement with Gen. Hunter. ,He never in tended and does not 'now intend that it should be independent of Genetal Run ter; `or` in any way whetever offensive or dishonoring to him that Gen. Lane Must re ceive his orders, from Gen. Huuter, , and the President will be glad if Gen. Hunter, acting within the range of his orders, and his sane pf duty to the public, can give such orders as will be satisfactory to Gen.

A bountiful suffer was partaken of, and the dancing and music continued until a very late hour. In consequence of the foggy and stormy weather, no flag of truce was sent to Craney island to day. The Colonel of the Espennel Z inaves denies positively the etatemente of the commander of the Erricson, that the captain of the John Trucks was sent forward by that officer, and that he, the colonel, took command of the vessel. • The John Trucks•and the Erriceon are expected to leave for Annapolis to-morrow morning. Contrabands who • have recently come on board the Young Rover, Rtatioued off York river report that about fifteen hundred ti oops are al Gloucester Point, and six or seven thou sand at Yorktown. An attack is constantly exppoted from Gen eral Wool, in the rear of Yorktown. The Constitution is to-day taking coal. Col.

NOVEL MODE OF CARRYING THE Merl.—The rebels, in the lower counties of Maryland, are so closely watched by the Union troops, that they find it difficult to communicate with their friends in Virginia. Their last dodge is the most novel which has yet been put into ope ration: A large kite is made, covered with silk, so as to render it impervious to water. The tail is formed by folding letters or newspapers to gether, and tying them with a loop knot— each letter, or perhaps two letters together, forming a big. When the tail is as heavy as the kite can conveniently bear up under, a cord long enough to reach about two-thirds of the way across the river is attached, and the kite raised in the air. After the kite has exhausted the string, or has reached a suffi cient height, the cord is cat, and the concern, gradually descending, is borne by the breezi to the Virginia shore, where the b )bs are taken off by those in waiting, and new ones for their sympathizing friends in Maryland tied on in their stead. With the first favorable wind, back cornea the kite to the Maryland shore; and vice versa. . . Although mishaps- sometimes occur to the mails by a sudden change of the wind wafting it into the river, as a general thing the dodge is successful. By this means, large numbers of letters and northern newspapers find their way into Vissinia. • WEL/01 NAPOLEON, (at that time First Colisal,) heard of the death of Washington, he said: "The great light of - the world • has gone out."
