GEN. GRANTS GENERAL ORDER.
The following is copy of a general or
der just received by the Fort Donelson
forces:
HEADoUAnTERs DIsTnIcr WEST Tenn.
Fort Donclson, Feb. II, 1862.
The General commanding takes great
plea urc in congrainlating the troops oil
this command for the triumph over rebel
18th and 18th inst.
For four successive nights, without shell
ter, during the most inclement weather
known in this latitude. they faced an enc
my in large force. in position chosen by
themselves. Though strongly fortified by
nature, oil the additional safeguards sug-
gested by science were added. Without
a murmur this was borne. Prepared at all
times to receive the attack. and with con-
tinuous skirmishing by day, resulted ulti-
mately in forcing the enery to surrender
without conditions.
The viciory achieved is not only great
in the effect it will have in breaking down
rebellion. bnt has secured the greatest
number OF prisoners of war ever taken in
any battle on this continent.
Font Donelson will hereafter be ma, ke!
in capitals on the maps OF our united
country, and the men who fought the bat
tie will live in the memory OF grateful
