Shreveport is the capital of Caddo Parish, La., situated near the foot of Caddo Lake, in the northwestern part of the State.
It is finely located for business on the Red river, being surrounded by an exceedingly fertile planting region, about thirty miles below the "great raft." Since the war Shreveport has been an extensive depot for commissary and other stores for the Trans-Mississippi Confederate troops, and up to the time of the siege of Vicksburg, formed an important link in 63.
It was afterwards repaired, but was destroyed by us when driven back by the Federals.
We understand it has been repaired and used by them in transporting troops, &c. The rivers of Louisiana are navigable only during the spring freshets.
After that time but few of them are deep enough for steamers or transports of any size.
