The ladies' gunboat. --The proposition of the ladies to collect funds for building a gunboat, has, we learn, assumed this shape, viz: That efforts shall be made to procure the names of two hundred persons who will give $1,000 each, which, with the other pledged funds, is deemed sufficient to finish the boat. The list was circulated yesterday for the first time, and we learn that Mr. Charles M. Wallace and Col. Blanton Duncan, put their names down for $1,000 each. Mrs. Judge Clopton and Mrs. Gen.
