THE ARMY OF THE TENNESSEE

Council Bluffs Nonpareil.-Of all
the heroic armies Of the United States
that fought during the great civil war,
none stands out in history with a
clearer title to greatness than the
army Of the Tennessee. It was the
army of whose three weeks campaign
around Vicksburg John Fiske said, "To
find a parallel to the deeds of those
eighteen days, we must go back to the
first Italian campaign of Napoleon in
1876. And 1t was the army to which
Grant paid this tribute. "As an army
1T never sustained single defeat dur
Ing four years of war. Every forti-
fication which it assailed surrendered.
Every force arrayed against 1T was
either defeated, captured or destroyed.
No officer was ever assigned to the
command of that army who afterwards
had to be relieved from it or be re-
duced from it to another command.
Such history Is not accident
During the war there were three
great armies, the Army of the Poto-
mac, operating in the east about Wash
ington and in Virginia; the Army of
the Ohio afterwards of the Cumber-
land), operating west of the Alleghan-
les, and In the eastern part of the Ohio
valley; and the Army of the Tonnes
see. operating in the Mississippi val
ley, south of the Ohio. After conclud-
ing its campaign in the west, this last
named army went east and fought side
by side with the Army Of the Ohio in
the great Atlanta campaign and came
up in the rear of Richmond and by
withdrawing Lees support fastened
the fall of that city, and was finally
mustered out in Washington.
Among the commanders who led it to
victory were first and greatest of all,
Grant; then came Sherman, Rosecrans
Mcpherson, Howard and Logan-com-
manders who rank among the great
ones of the world. Among its corps
commanders were Rawlins, Smith,
