the latter shamefully abandoned him, saying that he had sold them and Vicksburg! Through all these difficulties General Pemberton has fought his way like a hero. He has not allowed slander and detraction to make the slightest impression upon his mind. He has never wavered for a moment, and never done any act by which his loyalty could be called in question. He has made one of the stoutest and noblest defences of which there is any account in history. He has made Vicksburg as famous as Saragossa, and he will go down to posterity with Paradox. Those who were wide mouthed against him are already ashamed of themselves for having reviled a hero. Those who were a little less vehement have veered around, and begin to praise him. Those who were always convinced of his courage and loyalty, but were kept silent by his ill success, begin to hold up their heads, while those who always upheld him are ready to shout for joy. His case presents a solemn warning against giving way to a popular

Affairs at Vicksburg--Gen. Pemberton. The occupation of Milliken Bend by the troops of Gen. Kirby Smith has been followed by its legitimate consequences much sooner even, than we had apprehended. It has forced Grant threatened by the horrors o stay at home and criticise their operations. If thus much be predicated of Gen. Johnston, what shall be said of Gen. Pemberton?

Affairs at Vicksburg--Gen. Pemberton. The occupation of Milliken Bend by the troops of Gen. Kirby Smith has been followed by its legitimate consequences much sooner even, than we had apprehended. It has forced Grant threatened by the horrors of a famine in his camp into a desperate assault upon our lines, from which he has been repulsed with enormous loss. It appears, even, to have compelled him to look to his rear for the means of escape from the trap in which he has been caught. The wisdom of General Johnston's plans begins to appear, and the long forecast and wide-reaching sagacity, with which he has been preparing the impending catastrophe, are every day more and more and object of admiration. Compelled to form an army in the face of an enemy several times more numerous than himself, he has succeeded so far as to place himself almost on an equality with him. Knowing that procrastination was all important to him, while it was fatal to his enemy, he has contrived to put off
