It would be folly to say that the success of Grant at Fort Doneison did not fire his enthusiasm. Nevertheless, it was not of the demonstrative kind. 'He was, indeed, so reticent and apparently stolid, that his soldiers acquired the habit of not tiying to anticipate what he would do, but held themselves in readiness to execute all his orders, without inquiry—so completely did he possess their confidence." This habit of silenoe became one of his striking characteristics, and as we look upon it now, it is not hard to conclude that it contributed very materially both to the wisdom and maturity of his plans and to the successful execution of them.

and understood better how to strike hard blows than to speak fine words. Whatever of the latter he had for the enemies of the Union he hushed up in his own breast, until after their col umns were finaly shattered to pieces at Appomattox, when, as we shall see, he exchanged the character of a seemingly pitiless and unrelenting warrior for that of an angel of mercy.

The movements considered neoessary by Grant, after the capture of Fort Donalson, involved holding possession of the valley of the the Tennessee river the occupancy of Memphis, Fort Pillow, Chatanooga, and Corinth. The practicability of the undertaking was somewhat difficult to those who looked only to the hazards and difficulties it involved. But Grant was not intimidated by these, and as it turned out, they only served to develope, on his part, new and higher qualities at each step. He took possession of Pittsburg Landing, on the Tennessee, and Bueu was ordered to move from Nashville to his support. And he thus had the opportunity of displaying his capacity for conducting the strategies of war—one of the severest tests of fitness for command. |, [A comparison between Albert •Sydney Johnson and Grant was here instituted and the battle of Shiloh described.]

I VICKSBUBG.'

The capture of Vicksburg was thus described: Grant then turned his attention to Vicksburg, which was pro* tectedon the river by powerful land batteries and elsewhere by earth works well constructed. He knew, beforehand, the difficulties he would have to encounter before that strongly fortified city could be taken, but he was not accustomed to hesitate because difficulties were in his way. This was one of his great characteristics, and the movement upon Vicksburg furnished a magnificent opportunity for its display.. It is entirely impracticable now to go into any detail of the incidents attending this movement, or attempt to unravel its numerous complications. Nor is it material, since everything that occurred showed the persistence and tenacity, the unyielding courage and unfaltering energy of Grant. There was GALLANT FIGHTING UPON BOTH SIDES.

The various movements extended over many months. Whether it was wise or not to make a joint attack by land and water at the same time, military oritios alone must decide. It is enough for us who do not understand such things to know that such an attack was planned and that it failed. Why it failed may never be settled satisfactorily to all concerned that survive, but it is historically true that it did not toad to

tack upon Fort Henry, which was so fierce and impetuous that it held out but a short time and was soon captured. But the commandant succeeded, before

the surrender, in withdrawing a portion of hie troops and sending them to Fort Doneison, only a few miles. This was the mqftt important of the two forts, because it guarded the way up to Nashville by the Cumberland river, and, consequently, the increase of its means of defence was of the utmost importance to the Confederates, as its capture was to Grant. The movement having, in a great measure, proved a success, the subsequent battle became a pivotol point in the war, as it was in the history and fortunes of Grant himself. The contest involved the possession of the Cumberland valley, wich was absolutely essential to successful military operations in that section. It is not to be wondered at, therefore, that the attack upon Fort Doneison was fiercely made and its defence desperate. It was in point of fact, a terrible and bloody conflict. Nothing like it had occurred in the west before. #. [Further details of these were given by the speaker but are omitted here for lack of space.] "This retrospect" said the Colonl,, "shows Grant as early as February 1862, displaying the qualities of a great commander. CALM, COOL, SAGACIOUS IN ALL THINGS untiring in the discharge of duty, and with a courage no danger could shake, he so acted in every emergency as to suggest, even at that time, his fitness for a larger and more important command. The oountry was just beginning to find him out—two years before it knew nothing of him. Least of' all, however, did the question of advancing his personal fortunes disturb his thoughts. He had not a single impulse of ambition pointing in that direction, but concentrated all his faculties upon the great work whiah he plainly saw marked out before him—of compelling the Confederates to abandon, not only the Cumberland but the Mississippi river also. The prospeot before him, although stimulating, was full of difficulties. The field of operations em braced such an extent and scope of oountry as no European anny ever marched, over.

Fbete and Porter commanded the naval flotilla, and upon them and their men h»eould rely whem ham fighting was t»be»d»ne. He made several new channels Car the river and steadily continued his approaches—quickly and surely advancing upon the ci4yr and reaching, nearer and nearer to it every day. Almost a year had elapse^ during which this cool, quiet, taciturn, but most resolute and determined man employed' every strategy known to military science, and yet Pbmfcerton continued to hold Vicksbctrg in spite of them. These events are el the kind which brought out and developed the extraordinary qualities©* Grant But not withstanding Us successes at Henry, Doneison and Shiloh, these qualities had not been sufficiently displayed while his army was before Vicksburg to remove all restlessness from the public mind. It became inflamed somewhat at what seemed to be inefficiency on the part of those conducting the

LONG PROTRACTED SIEGE.

"Hope deferred makes the heart sick," and the loyal people were iu that frame of mind. They had almost forgotten Grant's previous victories in their intense anxiety for a grander achievement at Vicksburg. Not only did the result of the war seem to be clouded with gloomy anticipations, but the fate of Grant as a military commander was suspended by a single thread. All this he realized keenly and intensely, and if his anxietv of mind were known no pen could describe it. But he faced the crisis like a hero. His oourage rose as the difficulties thickened around him. There was no undue hesitation, no unavoidable delay, no flinching. Every foreseen contingency was provided for, and every one not foreseen was guarded" agaihst. With his purpose firmly fixed, he pressed forward to the execution of his plans like a man who knew the end he aimed at and was sternly' resolved te reach it. The naval- forces were ordered to ran the batteries, and this was done through shot and shell and flames of fire. Sherman moved upon Pemberton's left wing with unsurpassed gallantry. Then followed some of those grand strategic movements

—'the importance of which military men alone can explain. These resulted in driving Pemberton into the city,an advantage which Grant was compelled to overcome. Joe Johnson was advancing with reinforcements, and no time could be safely lost. Any misstep would have been fatal. But Pemberton made the blunder of not uniting with Joe Johnson outside the city, and Grant, with the keen eye of an everwatchful soldier, immediately turned it to his advantage. He plunged upon him at Champion Hill, with the veterans of Logan, Hovey, and Crocker, and the whole day was spent in terrific fighting. Pemberton was driven from the hill, notwithstanding the advantage of position, and forced to move back to a place of safety. Grant pursued him. Sherman still pursued upon his left until he fell baok into the defences of the city. Here he made a tremendous effort to hold the bluffs on the north, but Sherman prevented him, and 'the city became completely invested. The Confederates were dismayed, but not yet sabdied. They successfully resisted one assault, but that one only led to an other—for Grant and his officers and the tried veterans who followed their lead, had made up their minds that the city should fall into their hands. They were all roused up to the intensest enthusiasm, and not a man faltered, or shirked, or shrank from the terrible and bloody work before them. There was

NO PLACE FOB A SINGLE COWARD, and there were no cowards there, if there had been. The second assanlt also failed—for there were brave men inside as well as without the invested lines. But the siege was continued without the delay of a moment. The ravines were penetrated—trenches were cut in all directions—mines were dug and batteries erected. The fire from both land and water was unceasing* The air. was filled with shot and shell, .flying every where, ploughing up the earth destroying houses, and scattering torn and mutilated bodies through the air. At last, the city, no longer able to hold out against such fierce assaults, was forced to surrender{ And the Union flag was unfurled upon its fortifications,1 amid the deafening shouts of the victors ou the nation's birthday, July 4,1863.

In no military campaign was there ever exhibited greater Courage, more powers of endurance, more patriotic enthusiasm, or a more resolute DETERMINATION TO WIN THE FINAL

than in that of Vioksburg. Every man, within the Union lines, did his duty— jrom the General in chief to the brave aud patient and self-Sacrificing private in the ranks. But, on all hands, it was conceded that Grant was the inspiring genius—that to him, his patience, coolness, determination, common sense, energy, courage and indomitable willwas the country indebted for this grand achievement, which brought the whole line of tiie Misssissippi river under the control of the Union army.
