Join the sSIIebelsp'-AnE Interesting
Letter from Gen. Fitzhugh Lee. . RI

.- From the Richmond Dispatch.
The following letter from Gen. Fi!z-
hugh Lee is a valuable contribution TO
the history of the recent war. 1t was
called out by us. lie has given US per-
mission to publish it
81 knew Gen. Thomas well. Was a
lieutenant of the cavalry regiment of
which he was the major before the war,
and stationed at the same port in Texas
with him. He was an excellent artillery
officer (served in that arm in Mexico an
Indifferent cavalry One-tOo heavy, too
slow. Had not that coup d'BH plus

o0Loy1, u CdolreSSe ~ an athlete, ct u
dgiLite a. atn centd1tre,' that Gen. Foy
talks about in the 'Peninsular War, but
which did not prevent him from being a
general officer of indisputable courage
and unqnestionablc merit.
seYou say he is charged with having,
at the beginning of the war, hesitatcd as
to which side he should enlist with, etc.
The New York Tribune, however, and
all other Northern cncOmiums that l have
read upon his name and fame, lay great
stress upon his being "a Virginian who
never fdltered in his allegiance to the
Union. Bnt they had better have left
that part of his record alone.
sit is fact that when war threatened
between the two sections of the best gov
eminent the world ever saw, Gen.
Thomas feelings were Southern to almost
the bellicose degree.
'1t is a fact that he told me in New
York city, in 1861, as was on my way
from West Point to Washington, TO re-
sign my commission as an officer of the
United States army, that he, too, intended
to resign, and would soon follow me.
at is a fact that about that time he
wrote a letter to John Letcher, then Gov
crnor of Virginia, and rendered his SER
vices to the State (Which letter the Gov
crnor may have now.)
"The State of his birth can hardly be
expected, under the circumstances, to
to erect monument to him, but it should
not defame him.
"He was an upright, kind-hCartcd
man, and fought well, though against us.
Let him rest i'll peace; ard let Virginia
keep her walls of wrath to forever pouI
out upon the heads of some few of her
citizens who would not fight upon either
side, but who stayed at home and made
money by being paid by the North as
spies, guides and informcrs, or who,
after having been true TO the South fol
while acted as if they werC
ashamed of their past record.

A BAD womaN,s INrLUENCE.

The New Albany Ledger mentions the
death of convict named Watts, form
erly of this State, in the Indiana penitcn-
tiary, and says: In that State he was
highly respected. He had been a mem
her of The Ohio State Senate, and filed
the offices of County Clerk and County
Auditor. He was for many years prom
inent, useful and influential member of the
Presbyterian Church. He married, after
arriving at middle age, young and beau
tiful, but very vain and eXtravagent wo-
man. She was not a fit companion for
such man, and she rapidly went ''to the
bad" dragging her husband along with
her. He fell into the habit of drinking,
and became common drunkard. lie
finally removed to Indiana, where he con-
tinued his incorporate habits and his wife
her pecadilloes. In one of his drunken
sprees be committed the crime that con-
signed him to the penitentiary for seven
years. Five years of his term had been
served when he died. From the pomeni
| of his entrance into the prison he was
| a changed man. He became religious,
and was fervent and faithful in the per
Torrance of his religious duties, and hi:
death is described as one of religious tri
umph. The woman who had been the
cause of his downfall and the ruin of hi
| reputation, deserted him from the momen
when the calamities of his crime fell upor
him. Such is one of the sad pictures o.
human life, and a mans degradation.

Another smnsh.Up on Erie railroad.

NEW York, Sept 90. d
A train OH the Eric Railroad that left
Rochester at four o'clock Tuesday after
noon, and due hero at two minutes past
seven o'clock this morning, ran into Lents
circus train bound eastward, standing on
the track at Turner's Station. Tho circus
train had heated journal and had re-
NAMED near the station ten minutes, al-
though it was known that the express
train, which was entitled to the track,
was coming up behind them and twenty
minutes late. On hearing the approach
of the express train tho engineer OF the
circus train, knowing tho collision incvi'
table, put on all possible steam and start"
cd of. The crush, however, came; the
express knocking two passengers cars Of
circus train into spIinters. Not one whole
seat was left. The cars were filled with
circus performers and employees, male
and female, all of whom escaped,
with only slight bruises, except Mr, Whit
beck, directoro of the circus, who wns in-
stantly killed. Whitbeck had but mo.
mcnt before stepped to the platform. Had
he remained inside tho cur he would pro-
bably have shared the safety Of tho Others.
All the other cars Of the circus train ex-
cent those containing the horses, were de.
molishod or thrown from the bank. Tho
band wagon was utterly destroyed. The
locomotive Of tho express train was driven
into the cars OF the circus train, and they
were set on fire. The damage TO the ex-
press train was slight, and no passengers
were injured, though the engineer and
fireman were badly hurt. LLL--L--.-L

NEW YORK CRY.
A French War Vessel After tho
~. Steamer Hermann,
New YoRK, Sept. %.

SNSsseeASA
@aii5q!ss 81 New York, Sept. 98.
The steamship Scotia oEs$the Cunnard
line which arrived yesterday from Liver
pool and Queenstown, brought news that
must cause much uneasincss TO NIL those
interested directly or indirectly in the
steamer Hermann OF tho Hamburg line,
which put to sea al, an early hour ycster'
day morning. About 8 o'clock in the
forenoon the Scotia sighted the Hermann
and signHllcd ler-the latter replying.
The German steamer was Mt this time
going at an extraordinary rate, having on
d full head OF steam. She was bearing
outward so rapidly as to attract the atten'
tion OF the Scotia's passengers. The cause
of her unusual speed was soon explained!
by the appearance Of q Frenchlwar vessel
also under full steam and in quick chase
Of the Hermann. The two vessels rs
sighted from the Scotia must have been
within view Of each other and both
seemed inclined 10 keep up the
race. The Hermann was q long, way
ahead Of the Frcnchman. The belief on
board tho Scotia was thNt should she be
able to maintain tho same distance be.
tween, herself and her pursurer until
nightfall, she could then escape in the
darkness. j. Immediately on the arrival OF
the Scotia Capt. Judkips reported the
matter to tho Custom House officers, who
boarded his steamer. The Hermann had
q very narrow escape from CnCounterlng
another enemy In the French gun.bOat
Bonvot, which crossed in over the bar only
five hours before she was sighted by the
Scotia. The Bonvet must have passed
tho German vessel without being aware
Of her presence. Had she encountered
tic Hermann in front and the other var
vessel In the rear, the Bremen line would
be minus steamer to-day. Until we re.
ceivc further intelligence, the graYest
apprehension must be entertained
for the safety Of the steamer. The gun
boat Douket Is commanded by an expe'
pericnccd officer, Lient. Flinguet, and has
