Fortunately, a numerous and well-drilled cavalry, an essential thing in this region, was placed under his command. General Davidson, who had been guarding for some time the right bank of the Mississippi, commanded a division oluff, and already the ambulances were receiving more than one hundred a day. He wished to attempt turning the left flank of the enemy's position by ascending the course of Bayou Metoe in order to reach the Arkansas below Little Rock. To this end, Rice's division made, on the 3d, a vigorous demonstration opposite the burnt bridge behind which Marmaduke was waiting for the Federals.
