LETTERS FROM REnEI,GENERAL LEE.

A correspondent Of the Times supplies copies
Of two letters from the Confederate General Lee
which arc dated as far back as 1861. One Of tho
letters is addressed TO General Scott and con-
tains General Lees resignation of his commission
after service Of quarter Of a century. The other
addressed to sister, enters more fully into the
feelings which dictated that step, and which ami
mated the Southern leaders at that time:-
ARLINGTON, Va, April 20, l8Gl.-General -
Since my interview with you on the 18th instant
have felt that ought not longer 70 retain my
commission in the army. /, therefore, tender my
resignation, which request you will recommend
for acceptance. Ii would have been presented at
once, but for the struggle II has cos. me TO sepa-
rate myself from q service TO which i have
devoted all the best years Of my life, and all the
ability possessed.
during the whole Of that time-mOre than a
quarter Of acentuTy-I have experienced nothing
but kindness from my superiors, and the most
cordial friendship from my comrades To no
one, General, have been so much indebted as
70 yourself for uniform kindness and considera-
tion, and il has always been my ardent desire to
merit your appreciation. ] shall carry TO the
grave The most grateful reeollectionS Of your
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1864-12-28

Kind consideration, and your name and fame will
alwaj be dear 10 me.
Save in defense Of my native State I never
desire again 60 draw my sword BE pleased 70
accept my most earnest wishes for the contlu-
ueuce OF your happintss end prosperity, and be-
lieve me most truly, ours, r. r. LHB.

and lasting regret. Now We are in state Of
war which will Wild 10 nothing. The whole
South Is In state Of revolution, into which Viz
ginia, after long struggle, has been drawn,
and though / recognize no necessity for this
saie OF things, and would have iorbome
and pleaded to the end Tor redress OF grievances,
real or supposed yet in my own person had to
meet the question, whether ! should take part
against my native State. With all my devotion 10
the Union, and the feeling OF loyalty and duty Of
an American Ct izcn, / have not been able tOmlke
up ny mind to raise my hand against my rela-
tives, my children my home. / have, therefore,
resigned my commission in the army, and, save
in de fenso Of my native State, with The sincere
hope that my poor service- may never be needed,

swOId.
Il know you will blame me, but you must
think as kindly Of me AS you can, and believe
that llhave endcavored to down ~ thought right.

me, / send you q copy Of my letter 70 General
Scott, which accompanied my lctteri1fresIgultiDn.

upon you every blessing, is the PRAYER Of your
devoted brother II. u, lBE.'

VIce.AdInirnI ROmRnOR,

The Russian navy has lost one of its most illus
trious veterans, Yice-Admiral RomanoG, who
died few weeks since. The Admiras service
dates from the year 1873 and last year he cele-
brated the fiftieth anniversary Of his entering
the navy. During the war with Turkey he conn
manded the rowboat hOtlla, and on the conclu-
sion Of hostities he resigned but almost as soon

went TO sea in command of the steam hotilla
stationed In the Gulf of FINLAND. Finding that
his sphere of action there was very limited, he
went TO Sebastopol, where he signalHed h nself
by his valor during the siege.
