THE RED RIVER EXPEDITION, -
I mo, txxrtenwiewo , Ae th /ouiLlta,publi.
AIWAUtiIIA 1$ a town of some two or throe
the iahabitauts. - It is situated on the
west bank of the ricer, about 011 t, hundred mid
railo firm its nieuth. There are two
business streets ruuniag parallel with the
river, The thud Cue has many fine business
hen aea en it. There is ono hotel in running
erder, oiled the "leo House," where salt beef

d0 .4 4 ,,, t , v r tk , There is a first-rate Court
hektae here, which is now used as a prison.
TAW were three fine drug-stores in the town
at the Federal oveupation, all of which were
broken it: to and sacked by our soldiers. I
s4Aw a splendU drug-store sacked last Saturday,
ewl2,od CrulkAlank S Llynsou. The pro -
pziNAQ:::$ had Just got a very large stock of
amp trera Xesico, and the room and display
of battles and medicines would have done credit
to any-drug store in St. Louis. I passed by it
last ,c4turilay and found it full of soldiers, who
were carrying oil' everything they could get
their hands on. Bottles of ovary kind filled
with drup of unknown qualities (except to a
druggist.) were carried off. The large iron safe
was broken open and robbed of all its contents,
and nearly everything of value was carried off
or destroyed. Disapproving of such things, as
did, I called the attention of the Provost
Marshal to the fact, who at once sent a
squad of soldiers to the store and cleared it,
and placed a guard at the door. The other drag
snit dry goods and grocery stores, I am in
formed, were sacked in a similar manner. In a
conversation with Major-GeneralFranklin, yes
terday, he expressed the most emphatic con
demnation of such proceedings. He declared
that it would, if allowed, demoralize any army,
and thought subordinate officers should be held
responsible for the conduct of' the soldiers. The
rebels, when they left here, stripped the
country districts of nearly everything of value
that could be carried off. Where our army
passed, everything was seized that was left,
which was necessary to feed the army. Hence
the people .in the interior are in many
places in a most destitute and starving
condition. There will be untold suffering,both
among the white and black population, unless
some relief is afforded. Hundreds of people are
flocking in here taking the oath of allegiance
and . praying for protection and relief. Rev. Mr.
O'Quinn,an old Baptist minister,is here,bearing
a memorial from the citizens of the parish of
Avoyellos to Gen. Banks, praying protection
and the privilege of selling the cotton and sugar,
and the opening of trade. I asked Mr. O'Quinn
what article the people were in most need of.
His reply was: "Every thing in the catalogne."
He represents the people as in the most desti
tute and pitiable condition. The rebel citi
zens have now almost all left this part of the
State, and gone up North with the army, or
into Texas. The people remaining are Union
men, and are anxious to take the oath of alle
giance. The rebel conscript act has been en
forced here with iron rigor. Almost every
able-bodied man has been forced into the rebel
army, and the unpopularity of that act and its
enforcement,has turned the popular tide against
the Richmond Government, and caused the
people to look to and yearn after the old Go.
vernment and the old Union for security and
protection. There never was a measure so de
testable as is the rebel conscript act by the peo
ple here. Men liable to conscription_ have
fled before it, and have been pursued, hunted
and dealt with in a most cruel and despotic
n.anner.-
The citizens here are petitioning General
Banks to open this port to free trade, as New
Orleans is open. Lieutenant-Governor Wells,
who was recently elected to that office, resides
here,
and every day he visits General Banks,
withcommitteesiof planters urging him to open
trade. The people assert that unless they can
buy and sell here, they can raise no crops the
coming year. Some of them have a little
cotton which they saved from the rebel torch.
If, they can sell this, and can buy some sup
plies, mules and implement for their planta
tations, a crop can be raised; otherwise
nothing can be done. General Banks re
plies in general terms, that the rebel army must
be destroyed before anything else is done. He
is disposed to seal the port, and shift out the
whole region from the commerce of the rest of
the world. Not a dollar's worth of goods of
any kind for private use is permitted to be
brought here by citizens under any circum
stances. The barkeepers oa steamboats and sut
lers of regiments, are making a good thing out
of their respective franchises. While the
Mittie Stephens was in port last Saturday,eight
hours, its barkeeper took in over eight hundred
dollars for drinks, oranges, &c.
The place was captured by the navy. The
gunboats first arrived, and claim the country as
theirs. About four thousand bales of cotton,
belonging to private citizens, nearly all of them
Union men, have been seized by the gunboats
and sent to Cairo as naval prizes. The seizure
of this cotton has created great alarm among
the people, and thousands of bales have been
burned in consequence of this fact. About
one-half of the cotton in this parish, Rapides,
was burned by the rebels when they evacuated
the place. All along up the country, on the
line of their march, the torch has been applied
to the great staple, and thousands upon thou
sands of bales have been burned up. In con
sequence of this great fact, the great specula
tions which have been formed by speculators
when this place was captured will not be
realized:
The occupation of Alexandria, this time, is
• regarded as permanent. An immense army,
variously estimated at from forty to fifty thou
sand men, has been marching up the river
from this place for the past three or four days.
Major-General Franklin, commanding the 19th
Army Corps, and that part of the 13th attached
to this army, is the commander of the land
forces in the field. He is a model General.
Sunday night he was camped in this city.
During the night it poured down rain, in per
fect torrents. Next morning I went Gen.
Franklin's headquarters, and found him in the
midst of his men, encamped on the ground.
He always sleeps in his tent, rain or shine, and
will not allow his staff or men to occupy a house
or anything else but their tents. His men are
warmly attached to him, and under his able
and experienced generalship the army, under
his command, will be invincible. The intelli
gence is that the rebels are going to make a
stand at Shreveport. That is their stronghoid
in the Trans-Mississippi Department. But it is
useless for them to attempt to keep back the
irresistible column which General Franklin will
hurl against them. Yesterday fifteen or twenty
transports and a fleet of gun-boats passed over
the falls at this place and went up the river.
The Marine Hospital boat Woodford, in passing
the falls, struck a snag and sank to her boiler
deck. She is a total loss. There were two
hundred and fifty sick and wounded alt, board
her, all of whom were saved. No lives were
lost, so far as heard from, On Sundaythere
were about thirty transports and twelve or fif
teen gunboats here, but now most of them have
passed on up the river. Nachitoches will be
the next important place occupied. General
Ellett's Marine Brigade fleet which was here on
Sunday, has dropped down the river, but its
destination is not known.
The famous gunboat Lafayette, comnianded
by Captain James P. Foster, Lieutenant-Com
mander U. S. Navy, remains at this place.
Captain Foster is one of the ablest naval offi
cers in the service. He possesses a virtue
which is truly commendable in these times—he
is incorruptible; he can neither be bought,
bribed nor bluffed; he is the terror of sharpers
and smugglers; he has the firmness and de
cision of character of General Jackson, and the
covrage of Julius Caesar; is a man of very few
words and wonderful eccentricity. While at
BaYan Sark general Banks allowed some
eittaens to ship a lot of supplies to that place to
open a tracla atom Captain .Foster sent the
supplies back to New Orleans, at the same
time writing General Banks a note, in which
oeourred lids torso and emphatic sentence :
iilf yen are God Almighty at Now Orleans, .1
am Josus Christ at Bayou Sara." •
On the morning of the 20th ultimo, Colonel
in command of a brigade composed of the
ffild Missouri, (Merchants' Brigade, of St.
Lonis,) under Lieut. Col. Health, and the 35th
lowa, under Lieut. Col. Keiler, started on an
expedition back of this place, and kept up a
brisk march until 4 o'clock next morning.
Their march was through au incessant rain and
deep mud. They came upon a camp com
posed of the famous Louisiana Tigers,daptured
the pickets, surprised the whole command, and
by a bold daSh captured five hundred and sev
enty-five privates and thirty-six officers, to
gether with four pieces of.cannon, and all their
armS•and accoutrements. This is one of the
most successful and gallant exploits of any in
this department.

DIUERTICS
Irritate and drench the kidneys, and by constant

We present the Constitution Water to the public
with the conviction that it has no equal in relieving
the class of disease. for which it has been found so
eminently successful for curing, and we trust that
we shall be rewarded for our efforts in placing so
valuable a remedy in a form to meet the require

the Constitution Water.

ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense
of heaviness and dragging pains in the back and

in all cases, be cared by this medicine.
There is another class or symptoms arising from
IRRITATION OF THE WOMB, winch physi

much ignorance, and in nine cases out of ten the
doctor does rot really know whether the symptome

DANVILLE, Pa., June t,1662.
Dr. Wm. H. Gregg—Dear Sir: Fbruary.
1361, I was afflicted with sugar diabetes, and for
five months I passed more than two gallons of
water in twenty-four hours. I was obliged to get
up as often as ten or twelve times during the night,
and in five months I lost about fifty pounds in
weight. During the month of July, 16431, I pro
cured two bottles of Constitution Water, and in
two days after using it I experienced relief, and
after taking two bottles I was entirely cured; soon
after regaining my usual good health.
Yours truly, J. V. L. DEWITT.
BOSTON CORNERS, N. Y., Dec. 27, 1861.
Wm. H. Gregg & Co.—Guts--I freely give you
liberty to make use of the followiat Certificate of
the value of Constitution Water, which I can re
commend in the highest manner:
My wife was attacked with pain in the
shoulders, whole length of the back, and in her
limbs, with Palpitation of the heart and irritation
of the Bladder. I called a physician, who at
tended her three months, when he left her worse
than he had found her. I then employed one of
the best physicians I could find, who attended her
for about nine months, and while she was under
nis care she did not suffer quite as !much pain.
He dually gave her up and said, her case was in
curable. " For," said lie, "she has such
e combination of complaints, that medicine given for
o ne operates against some other of her Adios/ties."
About this time she commenced the use of the
CONSTITUTION WATER, and, tO Our utter astonish
ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de
sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly
ender its treatment, and now superintends entirely
her domestic affairs. She has not taken any of the
CONSTITUTION WATER for about four weeks, and
we are happy to say that it has produced a perma
nent cure. WM.M. VAN BENSOILOTEN.
WETEURRSPDILD, CoIIII., March ii, 1E43.
Dr. W. H. Gregg—Dear Sir—Rayiug seen your
advertisement of Constitution Water," recom
mended for inflammation of the Kidneys and Irri
tation of the Bladder, having suffered for the past
three years, and tried the skill of a number of phy
sicians with only temporary relief, I was induced
to try your medicine. I procured one bottle from
your agents at Hartford, Messrs. Lee,
Sisson do
Co., and when I had used half of it, to my sur
prise I found a great change in my health. I have
used two bottles of it, and am where I never ex
pected to be in my life, well, and in good spirits.
I cannot express my gratitude for it; I feel that it
is all and more than you recommend it to be. May
the blessing of God ever attend you in your labor ,
of love. Yours, truly, '
