SATURDAY, June 16th, 1855.

Got off early this morning, passed ""Bellevue" at 8 O'clock, after stopping at St Mary's sometime to chip ice +c. etc. Bellevue consists of one house, two barns, - We have had occasional glimpses of the prairies, but today we come in full view of immense prairies stretching away as far as the eye can reach - "Boundless + beautiful" -

We find the water very low, but as our boat draws very little water (3 ft) we do not have much trouble - passed old "Council Bluffs", former site of U.S. Fort, at five O'clock -
