Eg Romantic TRIr.-The ferry boat
Lewis Barnes, with the opening Of the
Missouri river, drifted from her moorings
at Fort Randall, and commenced the peri.
lous descent Of the rapid Missouri without
captain, pilot, or steam. 1t was like the
fabled passage between Scyla aud Chary'
bids. Nothing daunted the gallant little
steamer braved the perils of running ice
floating trees, impossible bars, and the
treacherous current. The first day she
made point about ten miles below the
Fort slightly damaged. From this she
struck out boldly, and on the second day
Of her voyage was run by some ice upon a
huge sasd bar, minus one rudder and II
portion Of wheel. Here she awaited the
breaking Of the blockade caused by an
ice gorge below. When the river was
agaiL clear she resumed the trip, and
arrived safely few days since at St.
Helena, where she put in for Sigh, repairs.
She there awaited the arrival Of Captain
Howard and crew, who found her in good
condition, and in every respect substan.
tial and seawor,hy. Her Injuries are very
slight, although the journey which is
about 100 miles was perilous and difficult
in the extreme. She belongs to the ferry
here, and is expected down this evening.
