The DIFFERENCE.-During the wal
and since its termination, the admirers OF
X. Z. Lee, in consideration of his per
sonal losses, and as evidence of their ap.
preciation of his distinguished services
i'll behalf of d cause they deemed the ho-
Hest for which man ever drew sword
have rendered to him valuable property
but he has on every occasion kindly
thankfully, but firmly declined to accept
anything so offered. Even when his fam
lily, driven from their inheritance, had
no home, he declined the offer of resi-
dence made by the city of Richmond, to
, whose defence he was devoting all the
powers OF his great intellect.
Recently, Gen. Hood, mutilated under
the flag OF the Contederacy, wrote to his
friends in Texas, whose call he had obey
ed in taking the field, respectfully, cour-
teously, but resolutely informing them
that he could not accept a substantial tes-
timonial to the gallantry and ability
with which he served the 'Lost Cause"
which they were getting up for him.
General Breckinridge, who abandoned
home, friends, party, and exalted posi-
ton, and gave his name, his influence,
add his sword to the South, now an exile
in a strange land, his brilliant career for
the time being closed, had steadily and
firmly declined all offers of assistance
from those for whom he sacrificed so
much.
On the other hand, General Grant has
been offered princely presents, in pro-
perty and money, by his friends and the
people Of the North, and has accepted
all.
And so with Gen. Sherman; whose let
ter accepting present of thirty thou
sand dollars from citizens of st: Louis,
we published yesterday.
We are not certain that the distinguish
ed gentlemen first named have not been
too sensitive, unduly independent. We
certainly would not have questioned the
propriety of their acceptance of the Of
ferings made them. At the same time,
we feel proud of that lofty pride, that
stubborn self-reliance, that unyie1ding
independence which prompted their ac-
ton, and honor them more in their pow
erty and glory than if surrounded by
all that wealth acquired in any way
could give.-Selma (4la.) Times.
