There sterns to have been an especial Provi dence looking out for us in providing a man equal to the emergency. Lieuten ant Colonel Bailey, acting Lgineer of tje Amolcenit l army corps, proposed a plan ot building a series of dams across the rocks at the falls, and raising the i n’l'ss ov J S Tr-'’ USh t0 . 1,,t thc -vessels I puss over. This proposition looked like I e<!Ti ne n,i a 'p V" 3 o ea £ ineers ridicui- I 1 ■. 1 bat c, ' l '' )n nl Bailey was so "an guine of success that I requested Gen eral Banks 10 have it done, and hern ' I | n ,. tbo work - Provisions f 1 " d Ur “ glJ WilS 3lmoSt OUt, un, the dam was promised to be finish 'd in ti n days, or the army would have im»' r,u h t' / r,0 " ,,tf «l about the tim., but had no doubt about theulti nmie success if lime would only permit i General Banks jilaced at the disposal of Colonel Bailey all the fo.ee he required consisting of some three thousand meii and two or three hundred wa<*ons All the neighboring steam mills "were tom dovn lor material, two or three regi ments of Maine men were set to work telung trees, and on the second day after my arrival in Alexandria from Grand J-.epre the work had fairly begun. Trees were failing with great rapidity; teamd i wpfe moving m all directions bringing' in brick and stone; quarries were open” l , ;' l '.. fla ‘boats were built to bring stone down from above; and every man seem-' < t to be working with a vigor I have seldom seen equalled, while? perhaps not owe ,n fifty believed in the success lul f ‘■Taking. These falls are about a mile in length, tilled with rug ged rocks, over which, at the present hle^'’ 1 7 ater ' ’ <se emed to be impossi ble to inako a cliaiinel. The work wa;s commenced by run ning out from the left bank of the river a tree dam, made of the bodies Mf very large trees brush, brick, and ston e y cross-tied with other heavy timber and strengthened in every way which inge nuuy could devise. This was run out about three hundred feet into the river ""f lal F. coa J bar E es were then filled with brick and sunk at the end of if from the right bank of the river cribs filled witb stone tjvere built out to meet he (larges. All of which was success fully accomplished, .. notwithstanding there was a current running of nin? miles an hour, which threatened to sweep eveiything before it. it will take too much time to enter into the details ot this truly wonderful work. Suffice I it to say that the dam had nearly reach ed completion in eight days’ working tune, and the water had risen sufficient ly on the upper fails to allow the Fort Hindman, Osage, and Xeosho to' ' r et down and be ready to pass the dam 'in another day it would have been high enough to enable all the other vessels to pass the upper falls-. Unfortunately on the morning of the 9th instant, lfie pres sure 01 water became so great that'it swept away two of the stone barges which swung in below the dam on one’ n^rnT” 8 tU ?

Pre vioiis to passing the vessels' over the falls, I had nearly all the guns, ammuni tion, provisions, Chain cables, anchors, and everything that could affect their draft, taken out of them. The com manders were indefatigable in there ex ertions to accomplish the object before them, and a happier set of men were never seen than, when their vessels were once more in fighting trim. If this ex pedition has not been so successful as be country hoped for, It has' exhibited the indomitable spirit of eastern and dition of the loss of two small light-draft gun , “ ats ’ the Signal and Covington.
