The course of the mighty Mississippi has not changed significantly since the first six times the same question was asked (and answered) this week. It still empties into the Gulf of Mexico.
Euphrates River.

The Mississippi is a meandering river. Braided rivers are relatively shallow and slow moving except in times of flood. Unlike the Mississippi, they seldom are navigable by large boats.
well, the river is 10 times smaller and is tiny
With the capture of Vicksburg in July 1863, the Confederacy had no bases on the Mississippi River. The Union nay "controlled" the river in that sense. With that said, Confederates could at times plant torpedoes in the river and fire artillery from hidden areas. River cargo, however, was never even close to 1860 tonnage.
from east coast to the Mississippi river
President Lincoln's changed his commanding general several times.
The speed of the flow changes depending on season, rainfall, width, depth, gradient and where in the river you measure it. However the total outflow averages approximately 209,000 m3/s (7,381,000 cu ft/s).

The East River is a tidal strait, not a real river, which connects on both ends to the Atlantic Ocean. As such, East River's tidal currents change the direction usually four times a day, flowing north and then turning around and going south. There are days however when the directions will be changed only three times in a 24 hour period. The tide reversal times change with the position of the moon and the sun, so there are no fixed times for the direction changes.
Yes each held legitimate claims at different times.
