4. ). The Jaw business. p
In tho fall Of 1883, Gen. Grant
nedo his fret attempt to capture
vicksburg, by moving down from
Memphis, through northern Missis-
sippi, hoping to surprise, and cap
turo the place from the rear, with
the aid Of Sherman's diversion ii the
front on ChickssAw BAyow.
This brilliantly conceived expedi.
ton would have doubtless succeeded,
had il not been for the infamous sur,
render Of Holly Springs, his base Of
supplies, with all his reserve rations,
and munitions, BY Col. Murphy, Of
Wisconsin, without firing . gun;
who BY tho way was rewarded for
his cowardico and treachery by re-
ceiving at the hands of the Tennes-
see Scaiawag, a lucrative Office in the
Post Office Department at Washing
ton, where he now reigns ~ q bright
and shining light, and high ,cockalo-
nom generally, in the CopperheAd
Synagogue.
During this important campaign,
Gsn. Grant found himself incumber-
cd with a unusual number Of camp
followers, cotton thieves, whisky
smugglers, incipient suffers and
plundercrs of every grade, al classed
in army parlance - Jews" on the
same principle that our army was
generally called "Yank's," and for
the additional and better reason that
a majority Of this motley crowd Of
interruptions villains, were composed
Of tho very lowest order-ths scum
and degs Of our7argest cities of tho
Isrealie;sh ihith.
:. Thoy were constantly giving In.
formation to tho enemy, debauching
weak oficcrs, and N intolerable pui,
sance generally, as every man be.
longing 10 that historic army will
cheerfhlly testify. asstf'
Uudcr this state Of thing is It
strange that Gen. John A. Rawlins,
Grants .Adjutant General, should
have got worried beyond the point
Of endurance and issued his oelebra.
tod order No. Ill, Dec 18th 1862,
saying:
1 "The Jews, as . class, violating
every regulation Of trade establiehed
by tho Treasury Department, also
pdepartment orders, are hereby ex.
PEELED from the Department within
twcnty-four hours from the receipt
OF this order by post commanders"
