GEN ROBERT Il. LEE.-The last number
Of the Edinburgh Review contains an article
on the life of the late Gen Robert Il. Lee,
which will excite much attention in Great
Britain and will be read with deep interest
in this country. 1t embodes brief but ex-
ceIlent account Of the military career of Gen.
Lee, and a noble tribute to his character as
man and christian. It concludes with the
following 1.-THE day will come when the
evil passions Of the great civil strife will sleep
in oblivion and North and South will do JUS
tce to each others motives and forget each
others wrongs. Then history will speak
with clear voice Of the deeds done on either
side, and the citizens Of the whole Union do
justice to the memory Of the dead aud place
above all others the name of the great chief
mighty, in battle terrible, in adversely, as ia
prosperity, hero indeed, with the simple
devotion TO duty ani the rare purity of the
ideal Christian knight. he joined all
the kingy qualities of leader Of men. 1t
is a wondsous future indeed that lies before
Americaj but in her annals Of years to come.
as in those of the past, there will be found
few names that can rival in unsullied lustre
that Of the heroic defender Of his native [Vir-
ginia, Robert Edward Lee
Inquiries having been made as to the In
volatility Of the postal cards, it is we'll to
state for the reformation of the public gener-
ally, that the postofice Department regards
them in this respect precisely as sealed let
ters No poatoffice official has any mors
right to inspect what is written on postal
card than he would have to open sealed let
ter and acquaint himself with its contents -
After they are delivered if left at public
places, such as hotels, boarding houses and
stores, there Is OF course no way Of preventing
dlshonofable persons from peepng at then,
if 50 disposed. unless put directly in tia
hands Of the party Tor whom intended.

played by Mr.. Frazier, the architect, and by
Messrs. Lewis johnson A Co., In setting on their
magnificent new building bJ laying at It's base
the smooth and handsome pavement OF the Artl-
ticial Stone Company Of this city. The laying Of
this pavement must surely, however, have been
an afterthought on the part OF these gentlemen,
for they would hardly have allowed the laying
along the Avenue front the rough, Jagged and
unsightly pavement which we see there, placing
along street the handsome block Of Schillin-
ger stone. at Is never too late to mend"
however.
