" This war has furnished numerous illustrations

attacks and stand in all the prids OF invincbihy
Richmond, Charleston, Vicksburg, Port Hudson, and
Chattanooga the keys Of the great situation hold our
armies still at bay in spite of the plans materials and
time we have made and employed. Some of these must
be attacked for obvious reasons but must the attacks
be made where the enemy is prepared for Along
the coast line cannot fad unprotected points where
by may penetrate the interior? Cannot Charleston
be turned? Cannot the Mississippi be opened by q
movement far in rear of Vcksburg? These very
general questions but may be suggestive. The rebels
now-how long it may be We know not-acting on
the defensive. They stand in our 'front.' brstlng with
cannon We should, by proper strategy force them to
come oct from their hiding places and either fight an
open field, or go to digging in place. Their Glib
raltars are thus far too strong for us.
" In Heavens name, let try some other pan than
direct attacks under most unavorabIe circumstances,
such as lost Burnside the battle of fredericksburg and
Sherman that of Vicksburg. Cut their lines of com.
munlcation; stop their supplies; and when isolation
and starvation take tha fell, their GbraItars will be
evacuated fer u.s."
