s that Governor Pickens had written to the War Department, demanding the immediate removal of General Pemberton. He had also telegraphed to General Beauregard, requesting him to come again to fight our batteries. His despatch ended thus: We must now defend Charleston. Please come, as the President is willing—at least for the present. Answer. And, as has been already shown, General Beauregard, believing that such a transfer would take him permanently from Department No. 2 and his army at Tupelo, declined to accept Governor Pickens's proposal. Governor Pickens's despatch, here alluded to, and General Beauregard's answer, were given in the Appendix to the preceding chapter. In writing upon this phase of the war we are met by two serious obstacles: first, the necessity of condensing into a few chapters a narrative of events which of itself would furnish material for a separate work; second, the loss of most of General Beauregard's official papers, from September, 1862, to April
avannah River, and your right flank from Barnwell Court-house towards Augusta. At least, the larger portion of his cavalry must be south of that river to watch the movements and check the progress of any force moving towards Augusta or the interior of Georgia, until the rest of the cavalry and other forces could be sent to give battle to the enemy. Please keep General Cobb and myself advised of your movements and those of the enemy, in order that we may give you in time any assistance in our power. Hoping that you may be successful in holding Charleston, and repelling any advance of the enemy, I remain, respectfully, your obt. servt., G. T. Beauregard, General. These dispositions being taken, General Beauregard left Charleston on the 2d of January, 1865, and on the 8th reached Montgomery, on his way to Tupelo, Miss. He carried with him sad forebodings of inevitable calamity to the Confederacy—the consequence of General Hood's disastrous campaign into Middle Tennessee
in. It will be assembled in a few days in the vicinity of Tupelo, to be supplied with shoes and clothing, and to obtain forowing telegram shows how reluctant he was to do so: Tupelo, Jan. 11th, 1865. To General Beauregard: I am very anxid on the 16th of January, the day following his arrival at Tupelo, he held a long and important conference with General Hoodg, not only his sick and wounded, but all his stores, from Tupelo; which, he thought, would require at least four days. Ohich he had been clothed. Two days after his arrival at Tupelo the following telegram was received by him: Richmond, Jan. 15th, 1865. General G. T. Beautregard, Tupelo, Miss.: By telegraph yesterday General Hood requested to be relievedwith the troops going to Georgia. On his departure from Tupelo he left with General Taylor the following special field orct: Headquarters, Military division of the West, Tupelo, Miss., Jan.—, 1865. 1st. General J. B. Hood is relieved, a
e disappointment to General Beauregard—was due to the exhaustion of the men, numbers of whom had dropped out of the ranks on the march, never afterwards reporting for duty; and to the fact that the Georgia State troops, or reserves, amounting to about fifteen hundred effectives, were not allowed to pass beyond the boundaries of their State, and were, therefore, not available for any operations in the two Carolinas. Cheatham's and Stewart's corps had also been delayed on their march from Tupelo, Miss.; and Lee's corps, under Major-General C. L. Stevenson, was still destitute of its means of transportation and of its artillery. On the 3d General Hill was required to return one of the brigades of Lee's corps which he then had with him at Green's Cut Station, and the following order was thereupon issued to Major-General Stevenson: Augusta, Feb. 3d, 1865. General,—General Beauregard desires that you will forthwith move with your corps by rail to Branchville, and assume comma
f shoes and clothing. I am assembling army at Tupelo for these purposes. It is important that you will be assembled in a few days in vicinity of Tupelo to be supplied with shoes, clothing, and forag B. Hood, Genl.
