with scarce ten thousand men, and at least nan OF
these had thrown away their arms. Want of food
and incessant fghting-tor General Sheridan gave
them no rest day or night, from the time they left
Petersbure-had worn out and demoralized the
men. and they struggled and deserted at every step
sheridan had gotten between him and Lynchburg
and thrown up .ntrenchments, and Stoneman, with
a fresh body Of cavalry, was also bearing down on
HIM from the direction ofLynchburg Gen. Grant,
with the Army Of the Potomac, was in his 'front.'
The capitu alton Of the remnant Of the Army OF
Northern Virginia took place at ten O'Clock Sun
day morning.
Some conception OF the losses Of Lees army
during the seven days Sighting and retTeating may
be formed when we state that between Petersburg
and Farmyine, Pickett, out of q division number
ing little over 1000, lost 4, 700.
We have stated that Lees ARM was demoralized.
This is true Of the officers as well as men. Gen.
Wise, during the last days Of the retreat told his
men ait was al over" and advised them to Ego
home and make crops
The cavalry seem no: 10 have been included in
the surrender, for .he reason perhaps, that they
had been 80 scattered as not 70 be within communica-
ting distance. F,ta. Lee and MuntoEd are said to
have started towards L7nohbarg previous to the

the Republican Party "falling back" to the rear
of the great army of progress. We had come
to regard some Of them as tall right" on the
great issues Of the day, and were therefore quite

oppression when northern republican editors can

ehould their standard be lowered and the great,

To breathe tho gale, to watch the wave,
And know-the wheel may rest !

What image charms, to lift thine eyes2

Invites thee 10 the skies.

There foamy-creBted pillows dash
Upon the BEACH Of sand,
And through the surf the bathers splash,
A very queer-dressed band.
Some slowly promenade, and gaze
At those amid the waves;
Some drive their prancing "bays" or "grays,'
Such as their fancy Graves.
Then when the stars shine forth serene,
lively crowd, and pert,
Upon the ballroom floor convene,
To dance, and laugh, and Art
There hOats each fayorite perfume,
Rich jewels dash and glow,
And finest tissues of the loom
Der steel expansions flow.
Each giddy, gay-robed damse tries
The rest in "style" to beat,
From waterfall" Of wond'rous size,
To slippers tight and neat.
The gentlemen are likewise dress'd
The smartest In their power;
But those are famed for looking best
Whose clothes come from the Tower.
