Stopped all exports of cotton at the beginning, to make the rest of the world feel the loss, and pressure them into granting official recognition to the Confederacy, in order for trade to resume.

Hastened the fall of Vicksburg by urging the garrison commander (Pemberton) to hold the town at any cost, when Pemberton's area commander Joe Johnston was telling him to abandon the place and save his army. Grant was able to exploit this confusion and besieged Pemberton until he surrendered.
