STORY OF A As Related by G-en. ] of S Washing I have frequently noticed that when old soldiers and sailors meet for a talk about the civil war they sometimes forget the reverence due the divinity commonly spokeL of as the Goddess bf Truth. For my part, I have heard events that occurred under my own eyes described in such a way that I failed to recognize them. We do not yet know with certainty the facts of the battle of Waterloo, and as to Chancellorsville and Gettys burg, although I witnessed both, I sometimes think, in view of the abso lutely irreconcilable accounts we have of these two engagements, a Bishop Whatley might readily create historic doubts as to whether either was in fact fought. With the full knowledge of this tendency to error I will give you as accurately as I can an exact narrative of the circumstances attending the surrender of Gen. Lee's army at Ap pomattox, as they fell under my direct observation. I will exclude every thing not immediately connected with the great event, as I am convinced that it possessed sufficient interest in itself to render comment unnecessary, if not inappropriate. There is one very important matter I wish settled at the outset, however. It is this : Gen. Lee did not meet Gen. Grant in the McLean house on the morning of April 9, 1S65, for the purpose of then and there effecting a surrender of his army. On the con trary, it was simply for the purpose of hearing Grant's terms. As a mat ter of fact, if they had not suited Gen. Lee he would not have accepted them; but Grant's offer was so liberal, so magnanimous, and so chivalrous that it was accepted forthwith. It is well to add that had Gen. Grant's terms been less favorable than those he made, Gen. Lee would not have ac cepted them, no matter what the cir cumstances might have 'been. We had' become accustomed somewhat to deal with desperate circumstances. CROSSED SWORDS WITH PORTER. I wish to have another matter un derstood lbefo;:e beginning a consecu tive narrative of the surrender. This . is in regard to Gen. Horace Porter's statement, made repeatedly, orally and in writing, that Gen. Lee offered his sword to Grant. Lee never offered his sword to Grant, and the latter never refused it. I was with the great Southern chieftain from the time he greeted Grant in the McLean house until he rode away, and the only time the mention of a sword was made was when Grant apologized to Lee for his dress, explaining that it was not possible for him to get access ' to his baggage and at the same time keep the appointment. The terms of capitulation expressly excepted side .anns, and'in view of that fact it | would have been a most unusual pro- ! ?cedure for Gen. Lee to have offered ?is sword to Grant. These matters are unimportant in themselves, but it is well for the sake of history to have them cleared up. After the disaster of Sailor s Creek, in April, 1865, the army, reduced to two corps under the command of Gen. Longstreet and Gen. Gordon, moved through Farmville, where rations were "issued to some of the starving troops. . A close pursuit by the overwhelming army of Gen. Grrant made it necessary to remove the wagon trains before all thc men could be supplied, and the remnant of the great army of North ern Virginia, exhausted by fight and starvation, moved in the road to Ap pomattox Sourt House. GRANT WRITES TO LEE. On the afternoon of 7th of April, 1865, Gen. Grant wrote to Gen. Lee stating that the hopelessness of fur ther resistance was apparent, and ask ing a surrender of the army of North ern Virginia. When this letter was received there was some difference of opinion among the general officers as to the nature of thc reply to be made to Gen. Grant's letter, some thinking it was yet pos sible to save the remnant of the army. Finally, however. Gen. Lee decided ? to meet Grant, and I was directed to ! draw up a communication to that effect. ? This is the letter Gen. Lee signed : April, 7, 1SI>5.-General: I have' received your note of this date, j Though not entertaining the opinion you express of thc hopelessness of further resistance on thc part of thc army of Northern Virginia, T recipro cate your desire to avoid useless ci'- i fusion of blood, and. therefore, before j considering your proposition, ask the j terms you will offer on condition of j surrender. Very respectfully, your J obedient servant, R. K. LEE, General. It was not until thc next day that a reply was received to this letter. Grant stated that lie would insist upon but one condition; this was that the men and officers surrendered should be disqualified to take up arms against ? the Knited States until properly ex changed. PPOMATTOX. Robert E. Lee?s Chief .taff. 'ion Post. IIOPK NOT ABANDONED. Even after this correspondence Gen. Lee did not abandon hopes of success fully extricating himself from the dilemma. The army had been in straits almost as deplorable. The march was continued during April S, with little interruption from the enemy. In the evening wc halted near Appomattox Court House, Gen. Lee intending to march by way of Campbell Court House, through Pittsylvania County, toward Danville, with a view of opening communica tions with the army of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, then retreating before Gen. Sherman through North Caro lina. Gen. Lee's purpose was to unite with Johnston to attack Sherman, or call Johnston to his aid in resisting Grant, whichever might be found best. The,exhausted troops were halted for rest near Appomattox Court House, and the march was resumed at 1 a. m. I can convey a good idea of the con I dition of affairs by telling my own ex ! perience. A NIGHT IN THE WOODS. J When the army halted Gen. Lee j and staff turned out of the road into a dense wood to receh e some rest, j Lee had a conference with some of ? thc principal officers, at which it was I determined to force our way the next j morning with the troops of Gordon, supported by the cavalry under Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, the command of Long I street bringing up the rear. With my j comrades of the staff and staff officers j of Gens. Longstreet and Gordon I sought a little rest. We lay upon the grouud, with our saddles for pillows, our horses picket ed near by, eating the bark of trees for want of better provender, and our faces covered with the capes of our overcoats to keep out the night air. Soon after 1 a. m. I was aroused by tht sound of a column of infantry marching along the road. At first I thought they were the Federal sol diers. I raised my head and listened in tently. My doubts were quickly dis pelled. It was Hood's old Texas brigade, and I recognized the command by hearing one of them repeat the version of a passage of Scripture with which I was familiar-I mean with the Texas version: The race is not to them that's got The longest legs to ran, Nor the battle to that people That shoots thc biggest gun. Soon after we were all astir and our bivouac was at an end. We made our simple toilet, consisting mainly of 1 putting on our capes and saddling our horses. Somebody had a little corn meal and somebody else had a tin can, such as is used to hold water for shaving. A fire was kindled, and each man in his turn, according to rank and seniority, made a can of oat meal gruel and was allowed to keep the can until the gruel became cool enough to drink. Gen. Lee, who re posed, as we had done, not far from us, did not, as I remember, have even such refreshments as I have described. LAST, MEAL IN CONFEDERATE STATES. This was our last meal in the Con federacy. Our next was taken in the United States, and consisted mainly of a generous portion of that noble American animal, whose strained re lations with the Chancellor of the German Empire made it necessary at last for the President of the United States to send an Ohio man to the Court of Berlin. "Tantas componere lites." As soon as we all had our turn at the shaving can we rode toward Appo mattox Court House, when thc sound of guns announced that Gordon had already begun the attempt to open the way. He forced his way through the cav alry of the enemy only to encounter a force of infantry far superior to his own wearied and starving command. Tlc informed (?en. Lee that it was im possible to advance further, and it became evident that the end was at hand. Gen. Lee had written Grant, .-tating that he would meet him at 10 o'clock on thc morning of April !., on the old stage road to Richmond. Attended by myself and one orderly Lee pro ceeded down this road to meet Gen. Grant. OE AD LY I'ENSION MAKERS. As wc advanced through thc rear guard, composed of the remnant.- of Longstreet's corps, thc men cheered their chieftain as he passed. Their < confidence and enthusiasm were not one whitabatcd hy defeat, hunger and danger, lt was lucky for thc Sccrc- ' tary of thc Treasury that this rear ; guard (vas not permitted to try its hand at increasing thc pen-ion roll with v Inch he is now struggling. Those men made no fraudulent pen- i sioners. When they were done with I a man. he or Iii.- representatives had | an indisputable claim to a pension I under any kind of a pension law. i Gen. Lee, with an orderly in front i bearing a Hag of truce, bad proco but a short distance after pas through our rea:: guard, when he c upon the advancing enemy. I forward to meet a Federal officer, turned out to be Lieut. Col. Whit of Gen. Humphrey's staff, and delivered to me Gen. Grant's repl Gen. Lee's letter, declining to dis the terms of a general pacification took this letter to Gen. Lee, wh once dictated tc me a letter to Gr asking an interview for the purpos discussing terms of surrender. Whittier took this letter to Grant, Geo. Lee ther returned to the fr and with Gen. Longstreet procee to a small orchard, and there wa for Grant's reply. As he was in fatigued a rude couch was prep; under an apple tree, upon whicl reclined until the appearance c flag of truce, and Grant's affirma reply. WHERE THE MEETING WAS 11E L Col. Babcock, who brought thc ply, told Gen. Lee that he had b sent to make arrangements for meeting that Gen. Lee desired wit the Federal or Confederate lines. (?en. Lee directed me to accompi him with one orderly, and irumedi; ly mounting his horse rode with ( Babcock toward Appomattox Cc House. We passed through an infan force in front of the village, and G Lee directed me to find a suita place for the meeting. I rode ? ward and asked the first citizen I 1 to direct me to a house suitable the purpose. I -earned afterward tl the citizen was Mr. McLean, who 1 lived on the bat de field of Bull Ri but had removed to Appomattox Co House to get out of the way of 1 war. McLean conducted me to unoccupied and unfurnished house, a very bad state of repair. I told h that it was not .suitable, and he th offered his own house, to which conducted me. I found a room suitable for the pi pose in view and sent back the ordi ly who had accompanied me to din Gen. Lee and Col. Babcock to t house. They came in presently and Ci Babcock said that, as Gen. Grant w approaching on the road in front the house, it would only be necessa for him to leave an orderly to dire him to the place of meeting. Geo. Lee, Col. Babcock and mysc sat in the parlo:: for about half ; hour, when a large party of mounti men arrived, and in a few minut Gen. Grant came into the room, a companied by hi> staff and a numb of Federal officers of rank, amoi whom were Gen. Ord and Gen. Shei dan. Gen. Grant greeted Gen. Lee vei civilly, and they engaged in convers tion for a short time about their fo mer acquaintance during the Mexica war. Some other Federal officers too part in the conversation, which wa terminated by Gen. Lee saying to Ger Grant that he had come to discus the terms of the surfender of his arin j as indicated in hi;3 note of that mort ing, and he suggested to Gen. Grao to reduce his proposition to writing. Geo. Grant assented and Col. Pal ker. of his staff, moved a small tabl from the opposite side of the roor and placed it by Gen. Grant, who sa facing Gen. Lee. When Gen. Grant had written hi letter in pencil he took it to Gen Lee, who remained seated. Gen. Lei read the letter and called Gen. Grant': attention to the fact that he-re<|uirec the surrender of the cavalry as if the} were public horses. He told Gen Grant that the Confederate cavalry men owned their horses, and the} would need them for planting a sprint crop. Gen. Grant at once accepted the suggestion. DRAWING UP THE ARTICLES. The terms of the letter having been agreed to, Gen. Grant directed Col. Parker to make a copy of it in ink, and Gen. Lee directed mc to write its acceptance. Col. Parker took the table upon which Gen. < ! rant had been writing to the other side of thc room and I ac companied him, and after he had fin ished copying the letter I sat down at the same table and wrote Gen. Lee's acceptance. When Gen. Grant had signed the copy of his letter made by Col. Parker and Gen. Lee had signed the answer, Col. Parker handed to mc (icu. G rant's letter, and 1. hand( d to him Gen. Lee's reply, and the work was done. When Gen. Lee returned to his lines a large number of men gathered around him, to whom lie announced what had taken place and the causes that had rendered the surrender ne cessary. Great emotion was mani fested by officers and men alike, but Lee maintained admirably his self control. Although thc; surrender was ii fearful blow to him. he did not tri nee. LEE'S PURITY Ol-' LI PK. Ile was a noble, pure, good man. 1 never heard hiii! utter an oath, al Lhough at times there seemed to be provocation. I never saw him lose fi is temper, (ic was always the same: ic. cr irritated or luster ?d. liven in ;he rush, roar and rumble of battle he was ever cool and collected, and gave his orders in a ?juict tone of voice. Here is an ins'.ance of his self control: The morning of the battle of Chancellorsville he was anxiously waiting word from J. E. B. Stuart and Jackson, who had made a circuit in order to get in the rear of the enemy. We were sitting on our horses on the top of a hill, and I saw in the distance a galloping horseman. He was a courier from Gen. Stuart an nouncing his success, and stating that he would attack at once. As we rode along, I reading the dispatch aloud, a bomb passed screaming between the letter and my face, the fuse scorch rig my glove. Naturally I stopped read ing, but while the shell passed equal ly as close to Lee, he never winced. He'quietly said, "Go on, Colonel/' He deeply loved Jackson, and when ' the announcement of his wound was j made Lee was much distressed. Jack son's death was a fearful blow to him. He admired Jackson not only as a soldier and a statesman, but as a pure and noble Christian as well. , COL. CHARLES MARSHALL. - mm - m> - mm - Wonderful Things. If ants were large enough they would rule the earth. As it is' they predom inate the politics of their own sphere, and have many human characteristics. The longest time for which an ant sleeps is three and a half hours. On awakening they stretch their legs, yawn, and then carefully clean them selves by applying their legs to their mouths and rubbing them over their bodies, very much in the style of a cat washing her face: after which they brush their heads and bodies with thc natural comb which nature gives them. The most remarkable thing about this is that almost every necessity for which we are obliged in our case to employ more or less complicated mechanical contrivances is provided for by the physical structure of the ants. Ants clean themselves both before and after sleep, and also after eating. Frequently one ant will lick and brush another all over, limb by limb, the ant operated upon sprawling on her back, relaxing her muscles and aban doning herself to the enjoyment of the operation. They are great hunters, attacking snakes, lizards, rats, mice, centipedes and beetles. They even kill the great African python. It is said that if a python has killed an animal he dare not gorge himself with it till he has made a wide circuit and satisfied himself that there are no driver ants in the neigh borhood. If, however, he meets with any, he abandons his prey to them, and discretely retires. A certain species actually keep cows, in other words, plant lice. When the ants are hungry they actually milk the aphides by tapping them briskly on the sides of the abdomen with their antennae till the fluid exudes, when it is at once sucked up by the ants. They shut them up in cow houses and use them for days. Ants act as soldiers in a very real way, and it is no stretch of language to call them pitched battles between ants of the same species, and raids of one species upon the nests of another, sometimes to carry off the larv.-c and pup;c as food (a modified form of can nibalism,) and sometimes to supply their own nests with slaves. Certain ants are agriculturists, and allow ant-rice to grow up in a circle round their nests, while every other plant is carefully cut down as fast as it appears. They sow thc crop regu larly, tend it, and harvest it. When the seeds fall they are carried into thc nest, and the stubble is cleared away. When thc grain in thc nest gets damped by rain these ants carry it out in the open to dry.-Cincinnati Enquirer. mt m mm A Troubled Irishman. The man who does not care to work has no difficulty in finding an excuse for his indolence, although probably the man mentioned below was not open to that accusation. An old Irish laborer walked into the luxurious studio of William Keith, the artist, recently, and asked for money to obtain a meal. Ile explain ed that he had just been discharged from the county hospital, and was too weak to work. Mr. Keith gave him a quarter, and he departed. One of four young ladies, art students, who were present said: "Mr. Keith, can't we hire that old man and sketch him?" Keith ran out and caught him, and said: "If you can't work and want to make a dollar, come back to my rooms. The young ladies want to paint you." Thc Irishman hesitated, so Keith re marked: "It won't take long, and it's an easy way to make a dollar." "Oi know that," was thc reply: "but Gi was a-wundcrin' how Oi'd gil th' paint' off afterward.'' - "Listen to a man's words, and look al thc pllpil of ll is eye. ' ' I (' you have a loving heart, and a right spirit, your eye will show it : but you can not evidence in your eye a sincerity that is not in control of you. The best way of seem im; sincere is bv bc ing sincere. Slic was Sony. Thc man had been absent from New York for a number of years. During his absence many changes had taken place. Some of his friends had moved away and some had died. Though he had taken the New York papers pret ty regularly, he had not kept up with these friends of his as he should have done. Consequently now and then some one of them that he thought dead and buried and forgotten came up to him and shook him by the hand. Such shocks had the effect of giving him nervous prostration, or nearly and they were of such frequent occur rence that his health not only became undermined, but he ultimately arrived at the conclusion that all his friends were yet alive. One evening he called upon a wo man friend who was living at a hotel. Arrived at her rooms, he found her surrounded by a crowd of people, but he finally reached her and shook her by the hand. "You are just the same," he said, admiringly. "You haven't changed a particle," which was not at all true, for her hair had turned so white that she had the air of a marquise in some old picture. ""And your husband, too." he went on, "he is just the same as ever. I saw him just now down in the lobby, lie was smoking." The woman looked a trifle startled fora moment, then recovered her com posure with considerable effort. "1 am sorry to hear." she remarked, gravely, "that my husband is still smoking. He has been dead for twelve years."-New York Sun. - -- Atones for a Crime of Many Years Ago. A master mason in Deutschen. Ger many, named Jacobs, was delighted to receive a remittance recently from a man in New York. The sender was unknown to him, but the remittance amounted to l'?0,07S marks, equal to Sl?.OOO. The sender, Jacobs believes, must have signed an assumed name. He says the only explanation he can give for the strange transaction is that the money cams from a former part ner, who absconded 30 years ago. He says that in 18(39 his partner in business disappeared suddenly, taking with him 12,000 marks which belong to Jacobs. Every effort was made to find him or get a trace of his where abouts but all were unsuccessful, and after a while he resigned himself to his loss. About a year ago, he says, while on a business trip in North Germany, he was thrown in contact with a party of American tourists traveling in the same direction. Ile talked with them and they told him of many successful Germans who had settled in the United States. Ile remembered his absconding partner and wondered if he had migra ted to America. He told his newly made companions the story of his troubles and mentioned his former partner's name. The Americans said they, knew a millionaire of that name in Chicago. Mr. Jacobs thinks it possible that the Americans told thc Chicago millionaire of the interview when they returned and that the re mittance was the result. The money sent represents the amount of the original loss, plus compound interest. The name of the Chicago millionaire was not divulged by Jacobs.-New Vi,ri; Press. - William T. King, member of the lower house of the Delewaae Legisla ture, is the only single man in that body. A resolution has just been passed in moot session ordering him to marry within thirty days or furnish an oyster supper for the members. It looks as if he would pay the penalty rather than commit matrimony. The flag under which all women should march is the banner of pood health. A woman owes it to herself, her husband and children to enlist, under this flag. If she does not do so she will live a life of wretchedness herself, and unless her husband is an exception ally good man, he will be come indifferent to her, her home will be unhappy and her children will be puny and sickly. Ill-health in a womanly way may almost invari ably he traced to weak ness and disease of thet . feniinc organs that arc Uu>v^vf vestibule of human life. * Ku woman can enjoy good, general health who is dragged down by continual pain and local weakness. Troubles of tins descrip tion utterly unfit her for wifehood and motherhood. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription gives health, strength, elasticity and vigor tu the special organs concerned. It makes a woman strong and healthy in a womanly way. h gives the nerves a rest from pam and an opportunity to build up.
