Important to Correspondents.

There being considerable doubt in
the minds of our Southern people as to
whether or not letters sent outside Of
the Confederate States, viii reach the
place Of destination by placing the
U. S. stamps upon letters to be for
warded, besides prepaying for the
same at the rates established by our
government, We append the following
which appeared in the Louisville
Courier Of 10th instant
Postmaster Speed notified one ofou'
prominent merchants, Saturday, that
hereafter all letters to parties here
from any of the Confederate States
will be forwarded to the dead-lettel
office at Washington. This, we un
derstand, includes letters prepait
with L. S. stamps. We trust there
is some mistake in this but, If it i
true, the people Of Louisville and tn
public generally should have beer
notified.

TO the Ladies.

Will not the fair ladies Of our city
encourage US in the cause we are ad-
vocating, by favoring the Office Of the
Shreveport Daily News with the pre-
sentation of flag of our own Gov
ernment, to grace the front of our
building. How it would show to ad-
vantage, ladies'! Floating to the
breeze from the window of our sane
tum. Wouldn't we blow about 1t
though! Only think of the phee-
links of this parsonage, if such a
thing could be. Ladies, you would
not be the loser, and besides, only re-
fleet on the subject. There are three
newspaper establishments here, and
not one has floating in the air owe,
the building occupied, or elsewhere

shameful. We want something o
the kind, but really cannot get it To-
a very important reason, which w
shall keep secret: But as the youn;

why, why, I, l. shall try to take NJ

Our President to be AsSuss'ndfcd.-
A special correspondent Of the Rich

following:
While standing in Willard's Hotel
last night, a small party of men gath
cred near me, and engaged in earnest
conversation, l heard one of them say
to another: "Jetf. Davis, the rebel
leader. is soon to be cared for
have Just seen with my own eyes the
gentleman who has sworn to take his
life at any cost; and he will do it.
His plan is to get a letter Of introduc
ton from some leading Secessionist'
here to President Davis, then to visi
him at his rooms in your city, and asI
for private friendly interview; ant
then, under the guise of friendship, t
plunge a dagger to his heart, regard
less of the consequences. That ther
is a plan on foot here for the murde
of the Southern President, l have nc
the shadow of a doubt.

Governor Moore, we learn, has

of our State, to refuse permission to
volunteer companies to leave the
Estate to engage in hostilities in d,s'

1.-The drafts, but have been fully equip

Private Letter from Richmond.
We make the following extract
from q letter received from Mr.. Geo.
W. Markham:
Richmond, Va. June S, 1861.
Dear Uncle-We arrived here OH
last evening all right, in fine spirits
and gool healths. Richmond Is a
beautiful city, containing about sixty
thousand inhabitants. There are
twelve thousand volunteers here at
present, and about three thousand
arriving every day, though they send
them away as fast as they are wanted
at other places. l do not kho"
whether we will be permanently sta
toned here or not.
There has been but little fighting
done yet. A great many telegraph
dispatches ere false | know as we
are where they all start FROM though
there has been a few skirmishes.
think when they hear that the Grays
are here that they miH usahen, d's-

friends.
