    College ILttirarjj FROM THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT ' THROUGH £> VICKSBURG NATIONAL MILITARY PARK COMMISSION. RECORD OF THE ORGANIZATIONS ENGAGED IN THE CAMPAIGN, SIEGE, AND DEFENSE OF VICKSBURG. COMPILED FROM THE OFFICIAL RECORDS BY jomsr s. KOUNTZ, SECRETARY AND HISTORIAN OF THE COMMISSION. WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE. 1901. PREFACE. The Vicksburg campaign opened March 29, 1863, with General Grant's order for the advance of General Osterhaus' division from Millikens Bend, and closed July 4^, 1863, with the surrender of Pem- berton's army and the city of Vicksburg. Its course was determined by General Grant's plan of campaign. This plan contemplated the march of his active army from Millikens Bend, La. , to a point on the river below Vicksburg, the running of the batteries at Vicksburg by a sufficient number of gunboats and transports, and the transfer of his army to the Mississippi side. These points were successfully accomplished and, May 1, the first battle of the campaign was fought near Port Gibson. Up to this time General Grant had contemplated the probability of uniting the army of General Banks with his. He then decided not to await the arrival of Banks, but to make the cam paign with his own army. May 12, at Raymond, Logan's division of Grant's army, with Crocker's division in reserve, was engaged with Gregg's brigade of Pemberton's army. Gregg was largely outnum bered and, after a stout fight, fell back to Jackson. The same day the left of Grant's army, under McClernand, skirmished at Fourteen- mile Creek with the cavalry and mounted infantry of Pemberton's army, supported by Bowen's division and two brigades of Loring's division.

  • “Between Two Fires”: War and Reunion in Middle America, 1860-1899
    “Between Two Fires”: War and Reunion in Middle America, 1860-1899 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences 2013 By Matthew E. Stanley M.A., University of Louisville, 2007 B.A., University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, 2005 Committee Chair: Professor Christopher Phillips Abstract From its post-Revolutionary position as the First West to its current status as a political bellwether, the Ohio Valley has always been a liminal space in American history. This dissertation centers on the Civil War, Reconstruction, and sectional reconciliation in the Lower Middle West, with particular emphases on identity, memory, and race. Indeed, if the antebellum West acted as balance between North and South, then the Lower Middle West, a nominally free region dominated by conservative upland Southern political culture, represented a median with the median. The Lower Middle West—part of a vast border area stretching from southern Pennsylvania and northern Virginia along the Ohio River Valley and into Missouri and Kansas that I term ‘Middle America’—was a political and cultural middle space typified by white conservative Unionism. Wartime conservative Unionists—those whites who supported compromise measures, desired only the political restoration of the Union, and who persisted rather than embraced emancipation—are central to understanding the dissent (Copperhead) movement, the Northern white backlash against liberalizing war measures, the Northern rejection of Congressional Reconstruction, the national movement toward sectional reconciliation among whites, and the legacies of white supremacy in the Middle West (labor violence, exclusion laws, sundown towns, lynching, the second incarnation of the KKK).

  • The Buford Expedition to Kansas
    THE BUFORD EXPEDITION TO KANSAS BY the Kansas-Nebraska Act passed by Congress in I854, the Territories of Kansas and Nebraska were organized and thrown open to settlement with the proviso that all questions relating to slavery were to be decided by the people of each territory when it should be ready for admission into the Union as a state. The South conceded and the North was sure of the admission of Ne- braska as a free state. In the case of Kansas it was doubtful if the anti-slavery party would ever be strong enough to control the elec- tions, but the leaders at the North intended to make a fight to secure Kansas. Consequently there was great excitement in differ- ent sections of the country, especially at the North, where, almost before the bill became a law, Emigrant Aid Societies were formed whose object was to assist emigrants opposed to the institution of slavery to go to the territory and settle in order to be ready to vote at the proper time. In this movement of importing men the North had nearly two years the start, the South being confident that no exertion would be necessary in order to secure Kansas as a slave state. So there was very little pro-slavery emigration into this " debatable land " before late in I855 except from the neighboring state of Missouri. The first territorial elections were in favor of the Southern party, but the Emigrant Aid Societies in the Northern states kept pouring men and arms into the territory until late in I855 the outlook was gloomy for the pro-slavery cause.

  • The Confederate Surrender at Tiptonville and the Conclusion of the Island No. 10 Campaign
    The Confederate Surrender at Tiptonville and the Conclusion of the Island No. 10 Campaign Dieter C. Ullrich In the early morning hours of April 7, 1862, the skies above the headquarters of Brigadier General John Pope near New Madrid, Missouri flashed with lightning, rumbled with thunder, and rain poured down in sheers. Pope, unable to sleep, paced anxio usly inside a modest single-story clap board ho use thar served as the command center for the recently created Army of the Mississippi. Though the severity of the weather concerned him, he could wa it no lo nger and gave the final order to proceeJ at daylight with the bombardment of the Confederate batteries o n the Kentucky shore. Afte r the long-range artillery softened the rebel defenses, two ironclad gunboats would steam down river and shell what remained of the enemy batteries at close range. When the batteries were silenced four tran sports loaded with a division of infantry, a w mpany of sharpshooters, two companies of cavalry and a battery of light artillery wo uld cross the river, form a perimeter and dig in. Wirh a foothold o n Kentucky soil, Pope could land bis entire force and dislodge the enemy from Madrid Bend and Island No. 10.
