Gen'l Beauregard's wife in New Orleans.

--The Huntsville (Ala.) Confederate learns that, under the Yankee decree of banishment from their homes in New Orleans, of those who will not take the oath of allegiance to the United State, the wife of Gen. Beauregard, with her mother and sister, were ordered to leave the city; but owing to her extreme illness, she and they were permitted to remain until her condition should be so far improved as to admit of her removal without sacrifice of life. The venerable father of Mrs. Beauregard, Mr. Desiondes, who has become blind through age, was detained, alone, upon his plantation, some forty miles above the city, none of his children being permitted to be with him, nor he to join them, unless he would take the oath of allegiance to Lincoln's infamous Government. His eldest son has been held in custody, as a hostage, by the Yankee authorities, ever since they got possession of that part of the State, being refused the right of exchange.
