Death of Mrs. Lee.

Mrs. Mary Gusts Lee, widow of General
Robert Il. Lee, died in Lexington, Va, on
Thursday of last week, aged Ga. Her
funeral took place on Saturday, her remains
being deposited beside those of her hus-
band, in the Memorial chapel.
The Alexandria (Va.) Gazette, abiding
to the recent death of Mrs. Gen. Lee, thus
touchingly refers to the cruel injustice of
which We regret to say our government has
been guilty of practicing towards the
venerable woman who has now passed
away:
For several years she had fondly
cherished the hope of ending her days at
Arlington, the parental mansion--her own
home and the home of her children.
There she was born, there she had been
married, and there her children were born.
Naturally all her affections clustered around
this, to her, hallowed spot, and as years
rolled on, she became more and more
anxious to return to the old homestead,
where lie buried the remains of devoted
father and mother, and where she had
hoped to have peacefully surrendered her
spirit to the God who gave it, surrounded
by all the recollections of happier days.
But in this she was doomed to disappoint-
ment, a disappointment that, added to her
recent heavy bereayements, finally broke
down a shattered constitution and death
ensued. She felt keenly the wrong i'm
posed upon her by the government, that
without the shadow of right or justice, but
merely by the strong arm of power,
withheld from her, her own and her child
rens', in violation of the very laws under
which the property was as first seized and
few there are in the land, We should think,
who will not regret that this injustice was
perpetrated, and who will not now be
willing that restitution shall be made to
the descendants of her whose soul has
passed to a happier home"
