The DIFFERENCE.-The river news re-
porter of the Times is responsible for the
following:
AS an item of interest to those parties
who take an interest in the shipments of
freight from the West to Shreveport in
preference to any shipped from this port,
they will no doubt be startled, as well as
our Red river buyers on learning that the
rates of freight from st. Louis to Shreve-
port and Jefferson are nearly two-thirds
more than those from New Orleans. For
example, We learn that Messrs. Bateman
Brothers, of Jefferson, Texas, who came
down to this city on the present trip of the
Charles Ii. Durffee, say that previous to
their departure from Jefferson they re-
ceived a lot of bacon in casks at the rate of
81 20 per hundred pounds, and the rate on
the same from this port is but S. per cask
Thus it will be seen that the rate of freight
from New Orleans is in favor of the con
sumer to the amount of fraction over So
per cask, and not only on bacon does the
consumer derive benefit, but on the ship
ment of all other goods in proportion
Therefore. We think when Red river buyers
find this difference in the rates, We can not
see why they should go elsewhere to pay
more,

These purchases make them among the

in this region. They have three hundred
acres secured at West Pithole, on which
they are operating with their usual energy.
In addition, they have property here and

ably seconded by Mr.. ]. D. Forrest, q tor.
