became him wonderfully well, never
made any reply, but in a cold, for
NAL manner, bowed. And General
Grant, in the endeavor to take avav
the great awkwardness of tho scene.
said:
u don't always wear a sword, be-
cause sword is a very inconvenient
thing" That was remarkable thing
Tor him to say, considering that he
was in the presence of one who was
ABOUT to surrender his sword. Lee
only bowed again. Another, trying
to relieve the awkwardness of the
occasion, inquired: "General Lee,
what became of that white horse Won
rode in Mexico9 He might not be
dead yet; he was not 30 oId9" Gen.
Lee bowed coldly, and replied: 81
lett him at the White House OH the
Pamunky River, and have not seen
him SINCE" There was one moment
when there was a whispered CONVEX
sation between Grant and Lee which
nobody in the room heard.

correspondence; these letters were all
signed i'll due form, by tho chief &C.

Finally, when the terms of the sur

the surrender made, Lee arose, cold
and proud, aud bowed to every per-
son in the room On our side. Ire
member each one of rs thought he
had been specially bowed to. And
then he went out and passed down
the little square in front of The house,
and bestrode that gray horse that
carried him all over Virginia; and
when lie had gone away, We learned
what that whispered conversation
had been about. General Grant
called his officers about and said:-

The INCIDENTS OF GENERAL LEES SURF
RENDER.

RENDER.
An interesting contribution to the
current discussion about the circums
starces of Gen. Lees surrender was
made by Gen. George Ii. Sharpe,
formerly of the Army of the Poto-
mac, in decoration day address at
Mount Kisco, New York. We give
tLo story as Gen. Sharpe related it:
II remember-as it was related to
NC ~ night II conversation, when
size name of Gen. Grant came up in
tine course Of conversation-tho WOE
derful scene that transpired in that
little place in Virginia, on the 9th of
April, 1865. 1t was late in the af.
tcrncon Wien it became known that
Gon. Lee had sent tor Gen. Grant 10
surrender to him. 1t was between
Two and threo o'clock when we met
in the little room in the house where
;he surrender of Lees army took
place. I know there is belicftha
the aurronder took place under an
apple tree, whore Grant and Lee
u1et and exchanged a few Words
The surrender took place in the left
hand room of that old fashioned
double house. The house had large
piazza which ran along the full length
of it. 1t was one of those ordinary
Virginia houses with passageway
running through the centre of it.
In that little room where the meet
III 9 took place, sat two young men
one q great grandson of Chief JUS
'iGo Marshal, Of the Supreme Court,
reducing to writing the terms Of the
surrender on behalf of Robert E.
Lee, the other, a man with dusky
countenance-a great nephew of the
celebrated chief Red Jacket-acting
under Gen. Grant. The two were
reducing to writing the terms OF the
surrender Of the army Of Northern
Virginia, to the army Of the Poto-
mac. Gathered around the room
where several officers, of whom I was
one.

"At some distance apart sat two
mon; one the most remarkable man
Of his day and generation. The larger
and older of the two was most strik-
ing in his appearance. His hair was
white as the driven snow. There
was not speck upon his coat; not a
spot upon those gauntlets that he
wore, which were as bright and fair
as a lady's glove. That was Robert
u. Lee. The other was Ulysses s..
Grant, whose appearance contrasted
strangely with that of Lee; his boots
were nearly covered with mud; one
button of his coat--that is, the but
tonhole was not whore it should have
been-it had clearly gone astray:
and he wore no sword; while Lee was
fully and taultIessly equipped. The
conversation was not rapid by any
means. Everybody felt the over
powering influence of the scene.-
Every one present felt they wero
witnessing the proceedings between
tho two chief actors in one Of the
most remarkable transactions of this
nineteenth century. The words that
passed between Grant and Lee were
few. General Grant, endeavoring to
apologize for not being fully equipp-
