ence to Commissioners. Finding that we were about to separate without coming to an agreement Bowen—who seemed very anxious about an agreement—proposed that he and others of the Reb Army, and Gen. A. J. Smith and some others of our Army who were present at the time, should consult and see if they could not agree upon terms which Pemberton and I would accept. I declined that and the terms were finally arranged between us through a correspondence which extended late into the night of the 3d of July, 1863. U. S. Grant. Letter no. Thirty-six. With this letter General Grant enclosed the reply to the Comte de Paris above given. He also refers to my account of the explosion of Burnside's Mine at Petersburg. While I was at Rome with General Grant I was laid up for a week or more with a lameness in a wounded leg. I had not been able to obtain a room in the same hotel with him, and he came to see me and sit with me daily until I recovered. During this period I wrote a letter to t

was on that day exhibited along our depleted ranks. I find it impossible to speak with certainty of our arrival on the field of Gettysburg, or of our position at the fatal hour of encounter. The more prominent incidents of the terrific scene are still pictured on my mind; but it is rather with the vividness of a strange, wild dream, in which much has faded from the waking memory, than as any past event of real life that I now contemplate them. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon of July 3d, 1863, our brigade moved to its position on the left of the army. There was one incessant roar of artillery and the ground was shaken, while to the northwest cumulous clouds of smoke rose above the unbroken thunder of six hundred guns. For a time the tremendous reverberations rendered it difficult for one at a distance to determine the direction of the battle, but knowing the position it was easy to divine that, as the din became less distinct, we were steadily forcing the enemy at every poi

It is a typical figure, and such a one as might have been seen on a thousand battle-fields during the war. The statue faces the South. On the disc of the monument appears the following inscription: Front-In memory of the men from all States of the South who fell in defence of Vicksburg during a siege of forty-seven days—May 18 to July 3, 1863—a defence unsurpassed in the annals of war for heroism, endurance of hardships and patriotic devotion. We care not whence they came, Dear in their lifeless clay, Whether unknown or known to fame, They died, and they wore the gray. Right— Here rest some few of those who, vainly brave, Died for the land they loved, but could not save. Left— Our dead are mourned forever!
