New YORK April 20.
The Her0td'S Richmond correspondent re-
counts an interview he has had with Gener
al Lee. He called on him to obtain his
political views and lay them before the pub
lie. On informing General Lee of his ob-
ject, the latter said Il am a paroled prlS-
oner;" and added, have never been a pol
itician, and know but little Of political lead

was ready to make any sacrifice, or perform
any honorable act, that would tend to tie
restoration Of peace and tranquility to the
country. He said that, as believer III
State rights, he had considered his ale
glance due, primarily, to his native State
lie had opposed secession, but when his
State went out, he considered it his duty to
go with it. When he accepted command
under the rebel Government, he considered
that he was serving his State lie regard
ed his surrender, of military, not political,
gnifCance-that il was not surrender +
the doctrine of State rights. When the
South was wholly subdued only would the
doctrine OF STATE rights be surrendered. The

Some of the Results of and'gestEon.-
A feeling of oUer- ttgJ1eeSs after eating; troub-
led with a sinking sensation at the pit OF
the stomach between meals; depressed splr-
its; difficulty in calculating, or arranging
ideas; hatulence in the stomach aud bow
els; rising in the morning unrefreshed; after
performing small amount of labor feeling
languid, faint and dizzy; swim minof the
head and sudden dimness of sight after hav-
ing been intenty reading or writing.
To overcome all the above do not use
powerful cat hartic that will PROSTATE you
nor fiery stimulant that will give you re
lief for the moment and be followed up by
a collapse; nor violent astringent that first
irritates, and in the end, partially paralyzes
the digestive organs; but use the mild cor
dial, ''Red Jacket Bitters, which will gent
lv assist instead of attacking the functions
of nature.

known as the five per cent. fund was set
tied. So it was. The state vas notified
that the money was III the United States
Treasury; but by some hocus pocus, the
agents of the old Rock River Canal Compa
ny, WHO have been trying to absorb the
amount due the state, have managed to get
an order from the Secretary of the Interior

withhold the payment of the money to the

Rebel View of the Inaugural.

The following are the comments OF the
Richmond Examiner on President Lin ..
coins Inaugural ..,. .... ,.......
Another emperor-Abraham. the first
OF that name-issues his manifesto. His
Inaugural will be found in another col.
umn.
1t reads like the tail of some old SER
mon, and seems to have no particular
msanihig of any kind. At least il any
meaning larks in il we fail TO perceive it.
One statement will sound somewhat
strangely TO many, viz: that the reason
why the South went to war was rather
than let the nation survive. The whole
affair presents singular contrast to the
French Emperor's address to his Cham.
bers. The letter is at least the utterance
of rational and educated ruler to civ
ilized community. and the former is a
harangue eminently fit to be made by
Abraham Lincoln to the crazy mobs who
were paradlng on that day through every
street in the North. Ill
