and begun to fight the battles of the
Rebellion over again, and has devoted
something less than forty columns to
an attempt to prove that Gen. Grants
Vicksburg campaign aoas a failure
throughout.
Had these able military chieftains
been where Grant was, they would
have learned that singing ink would
not scale parapets, silence batteries
nor destroy railroads. Viewing it
from the present, Gen. Grant doubt
less sees where he might have done
better in many details and movements
of the campaign. 1t is, however
much easier to criticise plan once
formed and carried out, than to study
it up. in the first place.
