After
Grant's withdrawal from
Jackson to
Vicksburg the reinforcements received by
Johnston consisted of the brigades of
Rust and
Maxey from
Port Hudson;
Ector's and
McNair's brigades and the divisions of
Breckinridge and
W. H. Jackson from
Tennessee;
Evans's brigade from
Charleston; and the division of
Loring, from the force under
Pemberton.
[See p. 487.] On June 4th
Johnston's effectives numbered, according to his own report, 24,000.
[See also pp. 478, 479, 480.]--editors.
Incomplete reports of Confederate losses from May 1st to July 3d, inclusive, aggregate 1260 killed, 3572 wounded, and 4227 captured or missing = 9059.
Complete returns would doubtless swellthe numberto over 10,000.
According to the parole lists on file in the
War Departmnent the number surrendered on July 4th was 29,491.
Of course this included all the non-combatants.
Pemberton's greatest available force, including the troops confronting
Grant at
Raymond and
Jackson, probably numbered over 40,000.
General Grant estimated it at nearly 60,000.
General Pemberton says in his official report that when he moved within the defenses of
Vicksburg his effective aggregate did not exceed 28,000.
It was the steamer
Star of the West that was used in the unsuccessful effort to reenforce
Fort Sumter in January, 1861.
She was at New Orleans when
Louisiana seceded, and was seized by the
State authorities.
S. B. Morgan, of
Greenwood, Mississippi, wrote to the editors, January 12th, 1888, that the
Star of the West was sunk in the
Tallahatchie on March 13th, 1863, under the parapet of
Fort Pemberton, to prevent Union gun-boats, that had entered by way of
Yazoo Pass, from passing from the
Tallahatchie into the
Yazoo River.
