Upon examining the results of the work it is quit appareut that there i at present tut little wster on th bar, to cross whicfr, even with a light draft ateamei1, appears to m'n very hazardous; while with any sailing veMil, impracticable. 1 am informed that a steamer is expected to enter t!i Si&daw Hivbr about the end of Outiber; ahoulil it do so, it ii uot lik'uly that any otliet vessel will again do so uuVil next Spring. The atove fact would scarcely commend this river to confident t inn for U'Uyajje, aud yt ffin the dilliculty of approach to this, ami such niuiilar amull streams, it would seem that an eutraoc bony would be of no. doubted (id to any vessel about to enter.
