pronit of the Miami riter. -The night waa tery
( drtt,k and rainy, and we met with eoneiderab!e dif
llculiy in attending on , account of the rapidity ol
, the current and the ahoal and rocky bed of the
nver. About a mile alove the forks we came to
body of high aaw gras, this continued for about
a mile and a half, when we came in view of the
Eterglitdes, and the graae tratne.rmie ncanatvd.

we came to a amal) leland on iir h p, when yr
Course beeame more woa erly j ihua we continued
until distant about eight milee from the m. utli ol
the riter, when ('-apt. Datidwin becoming aepra
