It will repay perusal: "The Bitnation" at Appomattox on the 9th of April, 1865, when General .Jjeg sent a nag of truoe to a?k an- interview, with General Grant, was simply this; There were only 7,600 jaded, famished Confederates with arrha in their heads, nearly surrounded by 80,000 Federal soldiers already iu position, with rein* foroements couaUntly arriving. Gordon fell back through the1'village and moved to meet an attack of Sheridan on the flank, while General Obamberlayne led the advance oorps of the Army of the Ja me* into the Court House. A battery of the Richmond Howitzers, whioh had been engaged at Big Bethel in 1861, sta? tioned in the yard of Mr. Peers, on the extreme North-east corner oftke village, fired the last gun of the day, and with? drew as the blue waves were enoiroling it. The Federal picket line was advanoed beyond the village, and that little band of heroic spirits seemed abont to be im? molated, when suddenly the white flag was displayed, and the firing ceased. There have been published so many sen? sational reports of the meeting between the two commanders, that I am glad to be able to refute them, by giving Gene? ral Lee's own aooonnt of what occurred, as he gave it to some friends at his house, in Lexington, bat a few days before his last illness. He said he had for dnty, that morning, not 8,000 men, and that when be learned from Gordon that there was a heavy infantry foree in his front, be decided to see General Grant and as? certain the terms npon wbioh he oould end the contest. But before going to meet him, he left orders with Longstreet and Gordon to hold their commands in readiness, determined, as .he was. to out his way through, or perish in the attempt, if suoh terms were not granted as he thought his army entitled to demand. He met General Grant bot ween the picket lines, in the open field, about 200 yards below Appooaattox Court House.' "You met ander aa apple tree, did you not, General?" asked., a gentleman.pre? sent. "No, air 1'* was .the reply; "we did not meet under an apple tree, and -I saw no tree near. It-waa in an open field, not far from the mala uoad." [This ex? plodes the "hiatotio apple tree,'' about whioh so moon has been said, A gentle? man who was Within a: few feet of the two Generals when tboy met, pointed out to me the ej^act spot. The apple tree whioh was o^t* to pieces, and even the roots of which wore dag up and car? ried off by relic-hunters, was fally a. quarter of a tniia from iho piaoo vl meet? ing, and the only., historio interest that oould be attached to it, was that General Lee rested under its shade a few minutes while waiting for tbe return of his flag of trace. The only tree any where near the place of meeting was a small locust thorn, whioh is still standing, about twenty yards from the spot. General Lee said that .when he met General Grant, they exchanged polite salutations, and he stated to him at onoe that he desired a conference in reference to the subject matter of their corres? pondence. "General Grant returned you your sword, did he not. General?" one of the company asked. The old hero, straightening himself up, replied, in most emphatic tones: "No, sir i he did not. He had no opportunity of doing so. I was determined that the side-arms of. officers' should be exempt by the terms of surrender, and of oourse I did not offer him mine. All that was said about swords was that General Grant apolo? gized: to me for hot wearing bis own sword, saying that it had gone off in his baggage, and be had been nnablo to get it in time." [This spoils a great deal of rhetoric about "Grant's magnanimity in returning Lee's" sword," and renders as absurdes it is false the attempt of North? ern artists to put the scene on canvas or into statuary. Even Grant's connivance At this so-called "historical Boene",will not safe it, when the world knows that K. E. Lee said that nothing of the tori occurred.] General Leo Btated in this conversation that he was . aooornpanled when he met Grant only by Colonel 'Charlos Marshall, of bis personal staff, Who webt with ono of General Grant's staff to find o suitable room in whioh to bold the conference; that they were first shown ton vacant house, and, declining to use that, wore conducted by Major MoOlean to his house, and shown' into his' parlor. General Grant was accom? panied by several of his staff officers, and several of his Generals, (among them Sheridan end OH.) eutered the room and participated in the slight gene? ral conversation that ooourred. The two Generals went aside and sat at a table to oonfer together, when General Lee opened the conversation by saying: "General, I deem it due to proper can? dor and frankness to say at tbe very be? ginning of this interview, that I am not willing even to disouss any terms of sur? render inconsistent with the honor of my army, which I am determined to main? tain to the last." Grant replied: "I have no idea of proposing dishonorable terms, General; but I would be glad if you would state what yon consider ho? norable terms," General Lee then briefly stated the terms upon whioh he would be willing to surrender. Grant exprossed himself as satisfied with them, and Lee requested that he would for? mally redaoe the propositions to writing. Grant at onoe did so with a oommon lead-ponoil, and handed the paper to Lee, who read it carefully and without oomment, exoept to say that most of the horses were the private proporty of the men riding them. General Grant re? plied that saoh horses would be exempt from surrender, and the papor was then handed to Colonel Badeau, (Grant's secretary,) and copies in ink made by him and Colonel Marshall. While this was being done, there were inquiries after the health of mutual acquaintances, but nothing bearing ou the surrender, except that General Lee said that he had on his hands some 2,000 or 3,000 prison? ers, for whom he had no .'utious. Sberi -f .J.?,1. j'. ? ;->.??-!-j dan atoice said: "I bavo rations for 25,000 men." Gen. Grant having signed his note, Goe. Lee oonferred with Col. Marsball, who wrote his brief note of acceptance Of the terms of surrender offered, Gen. BH striking oat the sentenoe, "I have tn&bbuor to reply to yonr communica tiov&and substituting, "I have received yourie^erpf this, date." This T?rminated . the interview, and Gen. Lree rode back to bis headquarters, which were^three quartors of a mile North-east of the Court House. I have thoa given the Bubst&noe, and for the most part the exaot language, of Gen. Lee's own aooountof the surrender. It will appear from this that great deal that has been said about "Grant's mag nanimitj," in proposing terms of sur? render, and Lee's "warm thanks for the liberal terms accorded," originated sim? ply in the imagination of the writers. The truth is, Grant proposed the only terms which Lee would have accepted, and he knew too well -the mettle oi that great captain and the heroio remnant of the army wbioh had so often defeated him, not to rejoice at any opportunity of covering himself with glory, by accept? ing almost any terms of surrender. I hftT? gathered a nambe? of inoidents of the surrender, which interested me and may be of interest to your readers. Soon after Gen. Lee left the> MoOlean House, owned by the same gentleman at whose house, near Bull Run, Beaure ga.d bad bis headquarters during the battle of July 18, 1861, Sheridan stalked in and said, rodely, "1 mean to have this chair"?taking np one of the ohairu in wbioh the Generals had signed the terms of capitulation, and exhibiting.at' the same time a 82 60 gold piece. Major MoCleau replied, "That chair is not for sale, General. If you choose to take it, you have the physical power to do ad." "I mean to have it,*' was the cart rejoin? der; and the "great barn-burner" gave another proof of his skill in petit larceny. The table and other chairs were in like manner carried off by Federal officers as souvemt?. A*^Bvh a* the flag of truoe was hoist ed on Gordon's lines, the offensive Gen. Cosier ("Mise'Fanny") came riding fu? riously in to Gen. Gordon, demanding in hie own name "unconditional sur? render." ' Gordon drew himself up to hie foil height, and with crushing digni? ty, replied; "I can have no negotiations with, yon, 8ir; and if the settlement of this matter rested between us, there could bo no negotiations but by the sword." As showing the spirit of the* men who participated in the brilliant action that morning/ it may be mentioned that many of them crowded around. the bearer of one of the flags of truce?a widely-known and loved chaplain, who, since the capture of his regiment at Spotsylvania Court House, had served with great gallantry on Gen. Gordon'a { staff?and eagerly asked if the enemy bad sent in to surrender their force on that road, thinking that in flanking ns, < Grant had pushed a part of his force too' fsr. They had no dream that they were 1 to be surrendered. Bat gradually the truth broke upon them, and great was their chagrin when these high-mettled victors in the last battle of the Army, of Northern Virginia learned that they mast ''yield to overwhelming numbers and resources"?that after all their marches, battles, victories, hardships and sufferings, the cause tbey loved better than life itself muat Bucoamb to brute force. After the flag of truce was raised a Federal scout was shot through mistake by his own men, when trying to stop the firing, and a New York Major, under the inflaenoe of liquor, met bis death by galloping up to a Confederate .battery and demanding its surrender. . ,\/ The women and children of App?mat tcz Court House had all left their homes during the battle of the morning, and apon their return had to pass through CaBtar's cavalry. "Miss Fanny" him? self, was very rude to thorn, and permit-, ted bis men to kiss them as they passed. Per contra, it affords me pleasure to say that many of the Federal officers and men were very courteous and considerate. The citizens of the village speak in especially high terms of General Cbauy berlayne, (since Governor of Maine,) who was delicately considerate of the feelings of the people, gentlemanly in his bearing and generous towards the vanquished. When the arms were being stocked, a gallant color-bearer, as ho delivered up the tattered remnant of his flag, burst into tears and said to the Federal sol? diers who received it: "Boys, this is not the first time you have seen that flag. I have borne it in the very .fore-front of the battle on many a victorious field, and I bad rather die thau surrender it now." "Brave fellow," said General Ohamberlayne, who heard the remark, "I admire your noble spirit, and only regret that I have not the authority to bid you keep your flag and carry it home as a precious heirloom." The oalm dignity of General Lee amid these trying scenes, the deep emo? tion with wbioh the men heard his noble farewell address! and orowded around to shake his hand?how they were thrilled by his simple words, "Men, we have fought through the war together. I have done my best for you. My heart is too full to say more." Gordon's noble farewell speech?the teuder parting of oomradeB who had beon bound bo closely together by common hardships, suffer? ings, dangers and victories, and now, by this sad blighting of oherished hopes, were all vividly recalled as I gazed on the very spots where they occurred, but are too familiar to be detailed now. I was amused to learn that the Federal soldiers and tourists not only oarriod off all of tho "historic apple tree," bat a whole apple orchard as well, and was re? minded of hearing of a gallant Rich? mond soldier, who sold to Northern visitors after his return home, wagon loads of tho "Appomaltbx applo tree," which ho regularly gathered from a Uenrioo orchard. -!?1 ? . I??' 1 T-2-i ? r i ?-!-: I noted with pleasure that 'the noble women of Appomattox have gathered the Con federate dead into a neatly-kept cemetery on the road to Appomattox Btation, not far from the grove in *vhioh Grant established biB headquarters. I cannot, close this sketch without quoting the language of that splendid soldier and unoonquerable patriot, Gene? ral J. A. Early, in his noble oration on General. L bo; ''Finally, from mere ex? haustion, less than 8,000 men, with arms in their hands,-of the noblest army that had ever fought In all the tide of time,' woro surrendered at Appomattox to an army of 150,000 men; the aword of st?? bert E.
