next bend Of the river, and shortly
after return to their former station.
AS it was now the middle of the day.
the exploring party halted according
to custom, and kindled fires to pre-
pare their dinner.
About half an hour after they had
halted, large detachment from the
Spanish corps were seen riding down
the sand beach. enveloped in such a
cloud of dust that their numbers
could not be accurately estimated.
The soldiers belonging to the ex-
ploring party were sent to take pos
session of thick cane brake on the
immediate bank Of the river, at
short distance above the boats. to be
in readiness, should there be occa-
sion, to attack the advancing party
on their flank. A non commissioned
officer and six men were sent still
further up the river, and ordered to
be in readiness to assail the Spaniards
in the rear.
The advancing party of horse came
on at full speed, and neglecting the
first challenge of the two sentinels
stationed in advance of the boats.
When the sentinels cried "halt' the
second time, they cooked their pieces,
and were in the act of presenting
them to fire, when the Spanish
squadron halted, and displayed on the
beach about one hundred and fifty
yards distant. Their officers moved
slowly forward, and were met by
Captain Sparks, whom the Spanish
commandant politely saluted, and
parley ensued, which continued about
three-quarters of an hour. The

destitute of resources after the
contemplated rencontre with the Span
iards should have taken place. At
sunset, on the 2Sth Of July, as they
were about to encamp, they heard
several guns ahead of them, which
left no doubt that they had arrived
near the Spanish camp. On the en-
suing morning Captain Sparks, Mr..
Freeman, and favorite Indian
walked ahead of the boats, along the
sandbeach, with their guns in their
hands. The Indian soon discovered
some tracks, ran hastily up among
the bushes on the bank and then re-
turning. made signs that the Span
iards were there. The party was
now halted, the arms examined, and
put in readiness for immediate ac-
tion; then all went on board the
boats, and they continued their
ascent as il they had known nothing
of the Spanish troops. The advanced
guard which the Indian had dis
covered consisted of twenty-five men,
stationed mile and half below the
enoampment of the main body. On
seeing the boats they fed instantly.
and hid themselves in the woods,
leaving behind their clothes and pro-
visions
On turning the next bend they
commanded beautiful view Of the
river, extending about mile, with
steep banks on both sides, and level
sand beaches, occupying more than
half the bed of the river. On one
of these, at a distance of half mile,
they discovered sentinel, and soon

spot where this interruption took
place is two hundred and thirty miles

thirty-five miles above the mouth of
