Effectively the Siege of Vicksburg, which surrendered on July 4th 1863.

This liberated the Mississippi and enabled Grant and Sherman to evacuate the Western region.

It did not quite end hostilities, as there were still forces in Louisiana (Red River campaign), but these were insignificant, and when Grant became General-in-Chief, he sent no fresh troops to the West.
