LEXINGTON, VA., October 13.-This
community was plunged iuto profound
sorrow upou tho announcement of the
death of General Leo. Tho various
ohuioh bells rung out their mournful
dirges. A general suspension of tho du?
ties of Washiugtou College, Virginia
Military Institute and the minor schools
followed, and they will not resume again
until after tho final interment of the
great chieftain. Every business house
in tho oommuuity was closed and crape
affixed to tho door. Even tho colored
harbors shut up their shops, and a gene?
ral expression of deep grief was visible
in every face. Washington College, the
College Chapel of tho Virgiuia Military
Instituto and the Episcopalian Church,
of which General Leo waa a communi?
cant, were draped in mouruiug a few
hours after his death.
General Leo had been nlmost entirely
uucouscious since Monday night last,
und expired very peacefully and quietly
at half-past niuo o'clock Wednesday
morning. Hu was first taken sick on
Wednesday cvouing, September 28th,
while just about to sit dowu to tea, when
he suddonly sank in his chair insensible.
He soon reacted, and in the course &f
the next ten days steadily improved,
until it was hoped that he was out of
danger; but on Monday evening last ho
became suddenly and rapidly worse, and
continued to sink until Wednesday
morning. During the early part of his
sickness ho slept much, nud spoko bul
very little, but was rational when awake,
and always recognized those who ap?
proached him. At times his mind seem?
ed for a little whilo to wander, and on
several occasions reverted to tho army.
Ho onco ordered his tent to bo struck,
and at another timo desired that Hill
should bo sent for. Ho suffered but
comparatively little pain during his
whole sickness, nud diod without a strug
glo. Ho will bo buried on Saturday,
October 15th, at 12 o'clock. Tho place
solected for his interment is a vault be?
neath tho College Chapel, which stands
in the midst of the College ground.
This was tho first building ho had erect?
ed after his removal to Lexington, hav?
ing declared that it was proper that, the
first thing tho collego did should, bo to
dedicate a house to tho service? of re
ligion. Hero ho will appropriately rest,
surrounded by tho monuments of his
later years, his remains sentinelled by
tho mountains of that Virgiuia upon
which ho has couferred such imperish?
able fame.
Tho corpse was removed to-day from
his residence to tho Chapel, where ?twill
lie in stato until mid-day on Saturday
next. To-day tho Faculty of .Washiug?
tou College, tho Faculty of Virginia
Military Instituto and students of Wash?
ington Collego hold meetings and passed
appropriate resolutions of condolence
and respect to the memory of the illus?
trions deceased, jvho asserted ?it the sur?
render of Appomattox Court House that
"Human virtue should bo equal to hu?
man calamity."
RICHMOND, October lil.-Richmond
pivsouts to day a scene of mourning
hardly witnessed in this generation.
Tho stores and public buildings aro all
closed; bells in all parts of the eily are
tolling; on many doors are pictures and
photographs of General Lee, draped in
crape, with evergreens. Citizens are
standing In groups on tho principa]
thoroughfares and talk in subdued tones
of the sad event. The feeling that he
ought tc bo buried here, nt the State's
expense, is universal, and tho Legisla?
ture, in making thi-: request of his
family, reiterated public opinion. The;
City Council meets th:, evening, at
the call ol' tho Mayor. Governor Walker
sent tho following message lo the Gene?
ral Assembly: "it is with unaffected
grief that I announce lo you thu painful
intelligence of thu death of General
Robert E. Lee, at Lexington, tm yes?
terday morning. Ho died as he bad
lived-a noble exemplar of the sublime
principles and teachings ol' roligiou.
He goes down tu the tomb amid the
lamentations of an iiU'eetionuto and
sorrowing people. Of exalted public
and private virtue in his lifo and career,
ho Ulled the full measure of our concep?
tion of a niau. A stricken family, a be?
reaved Stiile, au ufUieted people bow
with reverence and humility before this
visitation of Divine Providence, lt is
fitting that you, the representatives of
Uio people, should take such Appropriate
action as the melancholy event suggests,
and I believe yon would bat give ex?
pression to the universal desire of the
people, should you solicit the interment
of tho remains upon the grounds owned
by the Stnto in Hollywood Cemetery,
whero they may raise n monumental
shaft commemorative nliko of their
sincero and lasting affection for tho man,
and their profound appreciation of his
greatness and goodness."
After tho reading of the Governor's
message, a joint resolution was' unani?
mously passed, expressive of tho deep
sorrow of both Houses nt tho sad event,
aud requesting that the body bo turned
over to tho State for intermeut at Holly?
wood Cemetery, near tho city. A joint
committee, consisting of five members
of the House and three of tho Senate,
and their presiding officers, was appoint?
ed to go to Lexingtou and escort the re?
mains hero, if tho request was grouted.
The Legislturo then adjourned.
