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.

How many times a day does the current in the East River reverse its course?

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.
