Recollections of campaign against Grant in North Mississippi in 1862-63. By General Dabney H. Maury. [The following paper was written for the Society in the early part of 1872, and published in the Southern Magazine. Its republication has been frequently called for, and we take pleasure in complying with this demand and putty other attack besides that I have above described was made on the bluffs between Vicksburg and Haines's Bluff by General Sherman's army in the winter of 1862 and 1863, we, who were defending those bluffs, were not aware of it.

Any of the Wee Nees who were in Fort Wagner with me in 1863 know that had Anderson used shell as effectively as did Dahlgren and Gilmore, our batteries on Morris Island, and some of them on James Island and Sullivan's Island, would have been almost untenable. About ten o'clock on the morning of the 12th, the fleet hove in sight. We felt sure that our turn to take a hand in the fray had come. The Wee Nees were anxious for a fight, and were disappointed when the vessels anchored beyond the reach of our guns. I do not think that any of the guns o
