GRANT AND PETERsBU RG.
Where the Confederate Forces Lost q
Great Opportunity.

Where the Confederate Forces Lost
Great Opportunity.
Grant determined to cross the james
at Wilcox's Landing, ten miles below
City Point and entirely out of Lees
observation, and to move thence di-
Tectly upon Petersburg with his whole
army. He would thus pass in rear Of
Butler and attack the extreme right
flank Of the Confederate line, which
1t was certain would now be held by
only d small force. 1t involved the
performance of a feat in transporta
ton which had never been equaled
and might well be considered impossi-
BILE without days Of delay.
TWAS all accomplished without mis-
hap and in such an incredibly short
time that Lee refused for three days to
believe it. During these three days.
June Is, 16 and II, Grants whole army
was arriving at and attacking Peters
burg, which was defended at first only
by Beauregard with about $500 men.
Lee, with Longstreet's and Hills corps,
for the same three days lay idle In the
woods on the north side, only replac-;
ing some of Beauregard's troops taken
to Petersburg from In front Of Butler.
But for this Longstreet's corps might
have manned the intrenchments Of Re-:
tersburg when Grants troops first APP
peared before them, and it is not too
much to claim that his defeat would
have been not less bloody and disas-
trous than was the one at Cold Har-
Dor, for, while the intrenchments at
Cold Harbor were the poorest and
slightest In which we ever fought the
Petersburg lines had been built q year
before and were Of the best character
with some guns of position mounted
and all the forest In front cleared
away to give range to the artillery.
This, then, was really the nearest
approach to ia crisis" which occurred
during the war. Instead of success
elsewhere Grant here escaped sec
ond defeat more bloody and more over
wileIming than any preceding. Thus
the last and perhaps the best chances
OF Confederate success were not lost
