From Cantonement Gibson - Col. Arbuckle, Commandant at this post,
passed this place last week, on his way to Alabama, he having obtained
leave of absence during the greater part of the ensuing summer.
We are happy to learn from Col. A. that the troops at his post continue
to enjoy excellent health, and that the works of defense and barracks,
are in a rapid state of forwardness. Three sides of a square, which
serve for the double purpose of the breastworks of the garrison and
quarters for he men, constructed of hewn logs, are completed; and the
remaining side, to be used for the officers' quarters, together with the
necessary block-houses, were expected to be completed in all next month.
The Indians in that quarter remain perfectly quiet and peaceable toward
the United States, and almost daily intercourse takes place between the
Osages and the people at the Cantonment.
