RELEASED Stephen r. Smith, the news
paper correspondent, who was arrested at
Falmouth, KY, on suspicion Of being Sc

by Major King, at the Newport Barracks,
there being no charge against him.
BREAKING IN.-The Government teamsters
bereabouts have been engaged, for several
days past, in "breaking i'm horses, as it is
called, which interesting operation has af-
forded vast amount of amusement for the
look ers. on, and caused no little trouble to
the tesmsteTs. Some of the animals are eX-
ceedingly fractions. We noticed one yester
day, attached to a wagon, which obstinately
refused to "go," and upon being urged by
the application of whip, commenced kick
ing furiousy, and did not cease until the
forepart of the vehicle was almost entirely
demolished, and the driver had sought safety
in fight. Another horse, upon being hitched
| to a wagon, lay down, and all the efforts of
the driver, assisted by numerous bystanders,
proved uDavailing in inducing the animal TO
| get up. From personal observation we are
satisfied that the position of teamster in
the army is not pleasant one.

We take the following extracts from the
letter of Confederate soldier, of Louisiana,
in Virginia, to the New Orleans True Delta:
CAMP VINCENT NEAR NORFOLK. VA.)

We take the tolloWlng e1tracts from tne
letter of Confederate soldier, of Louisiana,
in Virginia, to the New Orleans True Delta:
CAMP VINCENT, NEAR NORFOLK, VA,
October l3, 1861,
Editors True Delta: DR.. Trott, Ensign of
First Regiment Louisiana Volunteers, hav-
ing obtained furlough to visit your city,
affords an opportunity to write, with an
assurance that it will reach you. l have
upon two previous occasions, in compliance
with premise, forwarded communications
from this camp, but have never heard from
them since. This is rather remarkable.
What could have become of them? Were
they suppressed? These are questions you
can answer as best you can. know our
people in New Orleans are glad to receive
tidings from their friends at the seat of war,
and are not very particular as to the style in
which these tidings are gathered up, pro-
vided truth, fair dealing and interest charac-
terize them. l am satisfied daring system
of espionage has been practiced upon some
of Us, who had been anxious to keep our
friends and the public posted in relation to
military transactions in this department of
the army of Virginia, which is disgraceful to
those in power; but TRUTH like murder, must
ultimately "out," and it is my determination
to keep you fully posted in future, not only
in matters of news, but all affairs concern
ing us.
1t is my candid opinion that the Lincoln
Government coverts the possession of New
Orleans above all other Southern ports, and
that the real object of the movement South
is to obtain foothold in your vicinity as q
basis of future operations. They know full
we'll that the possession of New Orleans by
them would have about the same effect upon
the Confederacy that the possession of New
York and intermediate points by us would
have upon the Northern Government. 1t
would, for the time, paralyze and cast a
gloomy shade around us, while, on the other
hand, il would embolden and inspire with
confidence our enemy. 1t is the policy of
our State, at whatever sacrifice to keep them
from our shore, and in order to do so-mdrk
my OoTd-vast preparations must be made,
and the greatest vigilance exercised. You
need well drilled and experienced soldiers
for this service, and as the first regiments
have been doing nothing and are likely to
be required to do nothing where we are at
present situated, would it not be wisdom in
Governor Moore to recall us in defense of
our own homes and the lives and property
of our immediate friends There are other
regiments who would willingly take ouI
place, who are now doing nothing. truly
hope this proposition will be considered and
acted upon.
