TIE JUDGE FLETcHER-At Brownsville, last Saturday, boat was launched for the southern trade, the cotton trade, to ply be- tween the waters of the Arkansas and New Orleans, to be called the Judge Fletcher- She is to be fine boat, to carry l,S00 bales of cotton, and will cost some $25.- GOO. She will have moderate sized cabin and her power consists of two engines with cylenders of twenty inches diameter and five fcet..stroke She has three boilers, each 26 feet in length and forty inches in diane ter. The length of the hull is 157 feet, width D feet beam, 8 feet floor, and 5 feet depth of hold.
 This fine boat is to be commanded by Capt. J. w. Smith, who has built her ex. pressly for the accommodation of the plan ters along the Arkansas, all heavy cotton growers, all staunch national democrats: and he gives us the positive assurance that the Judge Fletcher shall never carry bale of cotton or package of merchandise ex- cepting for the pure unadulterated demo- crats the Breckinridge school. He wants it expressly understood that she is demo- cratic ship, and according with request we say so.-Louisrille Courier.
