The richest man in Louisiana. --A correspondent of the Boston Post, portraying the utter disruption of society in New Orleans, says: There are none of the leaders of fashion here.--The ladies who moulded society have moved into the Confederacy; their husbands and sons--"in the ranks of death you will find them."

A meeting of Louisiana planters, within the Federal lines, was held at the St. Charles Hotel, which continued two days, to consider chiefly the cultivation of the sugar plantations and regulation of negroes in perishes within the Federal lines. A committee was appointed to confer with Gen. Banks regarding various questions which arose; and that officer, having been formally invited, entered the hall, and, after being welcomed by the President of the meeting, responded with a short speech, and retired "amid enthusiastic applause." The results of the agreement entered into are substantially as follows: That a fixed compensation is to be paid the negroes for their labor; that the negroes are left to choose whether they will accept the terms offered; that the contract, if they accept it, binds them for only one year; and that the Government pladies itself to protect them a
