Success is virtue and defeat crime. This
is the philosophy of life-at least the only
one the great masses Of mankind feel ready
to accept. Woe to the conquered ii is
no less q popular cry in the nineteenth con-
tury than when the barbarians first yelled
it as they swarmed with dripping swords
to the sack of Rome.
DAVIS ON LIS CAPTURE.
On leaving Richmond he went first to
Danville,@ because it was intended that Lee
should have moved in that direction, fall.
ing back to make a junction with John,
stons force in the direction of Roanoke
River. Grant, however, pressed forwaru
so rapidly, and swung SO far around, that
Zee was obliged to retreat in the direction
of Lynehburg with his main force while his
vanguard. which arrived at DanviHe, iusis'
ted on falling back and making tile rally
ing point at Charlotte in North Carolina.
In Danville Mr.. Davis learned of Lees
surrender. Immediately started for Colds.
boro', where he met and had consulta-
tion with General Johnston, thence going
on South. At Lexington he received a
dispatch from Johnston requesting that the
Secretary Of War General Breckinridge)
should repair to his headquarters near Raj
eigh-General Sherman having submited.a q
proposition for laying down arms which
was too comprehensive in itsscope for any
mere military commander to decide upon.
Bseckinr;dge ana Postmaster General Rea.
gan imme diately started for Johnston's
camp, where Sherman submitted the terms
Of surrender on which an armistice was de-.
clared-the same terms subsequently dis
approved by the authorities at Washing.

One of the features of tho proposition
submitted by General Sherman wss a de
claration of amnesty to all persons, both
civil and military. Notice being called
to tbs fact particularly, Sherman said: 81
mean just that" and gave as his reason
that it was the only. way to have perfec,
peace: He had previously offered to fur
a vessel to take away any such persons al

with vi .tever personal property they
might want to take with them, and to "a
