Caddo Like, In the northwestern part Of the
State. It's finely located for business cn
the Red river, being surrounded by an ex

miles below the "great raft" Since the War
Shreveport bas been an extensive depot for
commissary and other stores for the Trans
Mississippi Confederate troops, and up to
the lme of the siege of Vicks burg, formed
an important link in the "chain OF supplies
for our Western army. There is military
prison there, which has at timee contained a
large run.ber of Yankee prisoners. 1t is
two hundred and thirty miles from the mouth
Of the river.
Alexandria, one hundred and fifty miles
from The mouth, is, We believe, the highest
point on Red river ever visited by the enemy
before the present expedition.
