| ***** |
| We are informed by travelers
that the railroad fare from Shreveport to Vicksburg is as follows {Vicksburg,
Shreveport & Texas RR}: |
| To Monroe, one hundred and ten miles,
eighteen dollars; Monroe to Tallula, by rail fifty five miles, eight
dollars; Tallula to Vicksburg, twenty-five miles by stage, seven to
nine dollars. The roads are said to be very good. Most of the travel
is soldiers on furlough. The prices look rather steep. |
