Kinanl, Newbcrrv. Samuel Dronthitt, Greenville C. il. Wm. Moore, Abbeville C. H. Julius Poppe, Anderson C. H. Dr. Daily, Special Agent of tim Post Office Department for Louisiana and Texas, arrived in this city yes? terday morning, direct from| New Orleans, through in four days and a half. He brings the most eneourag ing reports from that portion of the South, over which he bas traveled ex? tensively. When Dr. Daily went- to Texas* hist fall, there -was not a single postmaster in all that vast State. Now loyal postmasters, " ho i have taken the test oath, dot the State all over, and nearly all tho leading mail routes are iu operation, afford? ing mail facilities to the entire State. As to Louisiana, the Doctor speaks particularly encouragingly. He thinks it the best "reconstructed" State in all the South. The people ure in a good humor, accept the situation with a hearty good will, und the freedmen and all are hurd at work "reconstructing" plantations und the wrecked fortunes of that great "Suger Bowl" State. Dr. Daily affirms that Louisiana will very soon be "herself again." New Orleans he reports as clean, healthy, full of people, ?md alive with enterprise. [A ?tionctl Intelligencer.

This tree was planted in 1706, to commemorate the union between England and Scotland. . Richland District-In Equity. Agnes Law vs. John Adger, Executor, and others.-BUI for PartUion a>id Sale.
