A pEBT TO BE PAID By TRE SOUTH.

A DEBT TO BE PAID BY TIE SOUTH.
Under this head, the New York Netcs ad-
ministers the following advice to the South
erners:
They will mar their record ii they permit
q sullen discomfort, an unmanly apathy, q
biooding misantbropy to unh. them for the
task of their couutry's recuperAtion. They
can now accomplish nothing with the sword;
but the plough, the anvil, the many instru-
ments OF progress and production are still at
their command, with which to rebuild their
broken fortunes. Their land is poverty
stricken, desolate, a vast charnel house,
where the bones OF their best and bravest al
scattered amid the ashes of homesteads in
the wide waste OF desola; cd fields. The sur
ytvors who are strong aud healthy are bnt
few, but the widows and orphans are many )
and they appeal TO the poor remnants oil
their country's vitality for homes and food
and raiment. The Southern women have
stood nObiy by the cause of their Kindred
They have endured beyond their just pro-
horizon of the sorr1ws and prlvaLiUns incl
deut TO the war; and they have endured with
ont n ,aurmur. When their husbands, sons
and blulhers went forth to battle against
fearful odds, and in most cases to untimely
death, they badc them GOu speed, ana turn
ing back to their Oesolate hearthstones,
stripped of their jeweis aud gathered up
their valuab!cs anu sent them To bly food ana

GEN. .uBERr L. LEE.

The New York Express publishes the fol-
loving letter, dated RicumOni, u inst.:
Several ne ASpapers that arrived here last
Saturday sIa.eu TINT General Lee had been
arrested 10 PURSUANCE VI orders from WASH
mgtvu, ana was 10 be tried III conjunction
vt,n Jefferson DAVIS upon charges vi trea.
son. ms statement was not generally
crediteo. but 10 assure themselves beyUnu
all doubt, many persons on thc ioiiowiUg
Sunday Repaired 10 ST. PauPS Episcopal
Cuurcns knowing that 1t Stiii in krchuond,
Gen. Lee would certainly be in ATTENDANCE
uoon The morning service. Usually very
prompt ia his attendance, some Apr, hensiOn
MAS t,.it hv his trends whcn il was dIScOve cd
that IL o'clock, the hour the service generally
BEGUN, had arrived, and HiS pew was vacant.
sui more anxiety MAS manifested when
few moments alter the services We're COM
nenced, and the pew remained unoccupied.
However, the people VINO were 81 concern.
ed about h,In, welc not long kept IN suspense,
TOR IN the early part Of tue exercises, While
tue congregation were yet standiug, he ar
rived, and, accompanied by his daughter,
proceeded TO ms seat. All eyes were turned
at olce 10 Sard the man Tor whom not only
tne entire South, buU thousands IN the NORTH,
FL An intense admiration but lie, seemingly
unconscious Of II, after reverently knee!lng,
arose and went uuCStcnta iOuSly through tie
remainder OF the services. he responded
aualbiy aad appropriately TO all the prayorS-
oven TO that Ivr the President OF the Unlted
States. In this his conduct was IN marked
contrast with that OF the majority OF the con-
grega,ion, who while this prayer was being
said, sat bOld upright, and 50 remained un.n
the response had been made.
After the sermon, To which all listened
with deyout attention, had been delivered,
and the b=nediction pronounced, Gen. Lee,
with the rest of the congregation, went
quietly out Ot church. On his way out, and
home (ae lives only a short distance from
the church, aud he walked that) he returned
in ciguined manner, and with pleasant
Sni tue cordial recOguitions he received ON
every hand.
In front Of the church, few of the many
strangers now scjvurniug in Richmond, Wele
assembled, and they expressed some aston
ishment at his appearance.
Our Richmond correspondent who sends
US the above, is a Southern admirer OF Gen.
Lee. There i. no such admiration felt at the
North, although most men respect the ablii-
ties aud the personal character OF the late
leader Of the Confederate armies. II is I'M
possible, however, not to forget that but for
SUCH a leader Richmond would have Deeu
surrendered a year Of least sooner than II
was.-IEDs. EXPRESS,
