state Of Affairs.

We have until very recently, been
led to believe, from dispatches re-
ceived, that the prospects of hard
fight, was slim, but now, we think
quite the contrary. OF course it is
a mere conjecture on our part, for
none can tell the result, or predict
with any certainty the steps to be
taken. Judging, however from the
intelligence which has srecently reach
ed our city, we make bold to assert
that Indications are, that we will
have bloody war. We are not in
favor of keeping the public in doubt
on any subject, much less one which
is of vital Importance to every one,
nor are we in favor of keeping any
community in state of excitement
1t is evident that out enemies in
tend, ifpossibie, to carry out their
threat of subjugation. The message
of Lincoln, is a composition, so got
ten up as to enable journals of the
Black Republican party, to make
choice selections Of the extracts sui
ted to their Internal purpose, seeming
to be prepared in all candor' but
abounding with hidden meaning
not to be misinterpreted by shrewd
observer.
With the prete1t of administering
the government, according to rules
laid down in the Constitution, and
party spirit having no bearing
in the premises, he reviews the pre-
sent state of the country, not as
candid and straight forward person.
but with all the winnings Of a syco-
phant, as he is. He proves to his
deluded followers, that the course
he adviees, as an impartial judge is
the correct and only one. This is
the policy, reiterates his conteder-
ates and with this view, they are
undoubtedly striving to effect what
they most anxiously wish-conquer-
ing the brave men of the South, rob
bing what they can, and firing pro-
perty, that they cannot make availa-
bic. Let us be on our guard and
prepare for the worse, but by all means
we should be calm and reflective, in
all our proceedings.

To prove this, and to set the editor

that of the twelve or thirteen hundred
voters of Caddo parish, of which
there is about eighty or ninety for
eign voters, fifty-seven of them are
now in the ranks Of our four compa-
nies sent from this parish; and l
think that everybody in this place
will testify that the foreign born citi-
zens of Shreveport have contributed
literally for the support of our gal
liant volunteers.
Is it not folly for the native born
citizens, to grit their teeth, and make
n difference between them and the for
eigners in the present crisis? We
are all fighting for the same cause aud
striving to gain the victory over our
northern enemies.
Some Of the leaders of the Senti-
nels have shown, only few days
ago, preference for the native to the
foreign born citizens, by calling a
meeting of the company and exclu-
ding nearly all the foreign members,
for various reasons Of their own,
which they are unwilling to explain
l say, therefore, if nativity and sec
tional religion is the only reason,
then, gentlemen. go ahead; the for

adopted country is concerned. 1t

WILLINGNESS.
There lives little maiden,
Not very far away,
Whose smiles to me are brighter
Than the sun that shines to-day;
Her eye is dark and piercing,
And her lips so sweetly red,
I'd kiss this little maiden
II were not not afraid.
Her hair is dark and wary
And her brow so bright and fair,
That beauty loves to linger
In all its pleasures there.
Her eye with mischief wrinkles,
And yet she is so good,
would hug this little maiden,
If only could
love this little maiden
So Joyous and so free,
And every time meet her,
My heart is full Of glee;
And would like to marry her
Id do so, if could
But I'm very much afraid,
I could Mt il would CARY.
