Lee And Davis.

The following interesting extracts
are from an interview with Senator
Malone who was a Confederate off
Ger, on Jeff Davis book:
did Gen. Lee or any other promi-
nent man in the Oonfederacy agree
with Mr.. Davis in his plan of retreat
ing to the mountains and ~prolonging
the wal by a running fght?"
mot that | can recall. | know
Gen. Lee did not, and all appeared to
recognize the fact hal when Rich
mond fell the wal would be ended.
The statement that Gen. Lee never
contemplated a surrender is not true.
He not only thought of surrender, but
proposed it to Mr.. Davis. l had a
conference with Gen. Lee in his tent
at Appomattox Immediately after the
surrender. He said to me during that
interview that some time during the
winter he had urged upon Davis the
desirability, if not the necessity, of
making terms with Gen. Grant. He
detailed to me some of the talk be-
tween him and Davis, who had
said he would not listen to making
terms, but insisted that he should
fight to the last. General Lee said he
explained to Davisthe situation of the
two armies; that Grants forces were
greatly superior to his, was within
nine miles of it's base of supplies, and
fully equipped with transportation aud
fresh cavalry and artillery horses.
That even then it would be impossi-
BILE in the crippled condition Of his
transportation to retreat, and that in
the spring when Grant came down
upon him, a surrender would be in
evitable, His idea was that duty
called him to make terms without fur
Their ~bloodshed. Mr.. Davis refused,
and the result is history. Yes, Gen.
eral Lee wanted to end the war whom
he saw that further fighting was ,
useless sacrifice of life. That it was
not ended was not his fault, as his
statements to me in this memorable
interview show. | told him that his
officers would have sustained him.
and SO they would, for he had the con.
fdence and heart Of not only the Off
GERS and men, but Of the whole south
ern people, toR greater degree than
any man, and q thousandfold more

WASHINGTON, June 2l.-A scandal
Of the last social season has just crop
ped cut. At a big reception given
during that season by Walter r.
Davidge, a prominent lawyer of this
city, the secretary of French legation,
Lozzelle by name, and an attache Of
the Spanish legation, named Polo,
paid special attention to a young lady
from Kentucky, the daughter of an
ex-judge. When the guests went to
the supper room, tie two foreigners
piled the young lady with wine and
kept her at the table until the room
was deserted they kept drinking
wine with her until she was under its
influence. Their object was but one
single thing having her in this state,
they began taking liberties With
her person. This was done openly. A
number of people who dropped into
the supper room saw what was going
on. The libertines attempted to get
the young lady from the house with
them. A lady who knew her inter
fered, and took her home in her oar
riage. The occurrence was reported
to the French and Spanish ministry.
and both Lozzelle and Polo were re-
called by their governments. The
former has just managed to secure
restoration to his official position; his
return revives the scandal and makes
it public. He is ostracised by all de-
cent people. Immediately after the
affair the young lady involved went to
New York, and a short time ago mar
ried a rich man from Boston named
Copenhagen.
ANOTHER VERSION OF THE SCANDAL.
WASHINGTON, June 21.-Society is
agitated here over the development
eff a scandal involving one attache of
the French legation, n attache of
the Spanish legation, and a young lady
of high social tanding. One foreigner
is secretary Of the legation. These
young foreigners, according to the
story, attended a brilliant reception
party at a fashionable residence in the
west end of Washington during the
latter part Of the social season. They
paid special attention to the young
lady spoken Of, and managed to en-.
gage her at the supper table, and after
all the other guests had left the
supper room, they piled the
young lady with wine until
she was well under its influence and
then induced her to accompany them
upstairs to a private dressing room.

but have been cut entirely by the
club because Of their conduct. The
young lady's family found out the
secret and have taken her from the
city. There is great indignation here,
and both attaches of these legations
will, undoubtedly, have to leave. 1t
is probable that they will be promptly
dismissed from their positions. The
young lady's name is suppressed, be-.
cause of the standing of the family.

When the child was discovered on

How an Orphan Turned Out and
Turned Up.

ANAouNlAlo COEs NOuIlor-S OurnRl,l
About forty years ago, in the city of
Louisville, a lady was importuned to
take a small boy out of the orphan
asylum and give him a home with her.
The boy was the first child received
into the asylum after the opening of
the institution, and the idea of the
ladies in charge being that the asylum
was only a temporary home for chill
dren, busted them elves to procure
homes for them in respectable fami-
lies as fast as they were received. The
lady who took the little boy referred
to had a large family of her own.
Her husband was a mechanic, and
poor, aud it was with much reluc-
lance that she was persuaded to as
sumo this additional burden. She
finally, however, consented TO take
him, and the boy renamed with her
about two years, at the end of which
time he suddenly disappeared-spir-
tied away, it was supposed, by his
father, who was much given to drink.
No one knew where he had been taken,
and after diligent search all over the
country, aided by the newspapers, he
was given up as dead. Many were the
spe~culations INDUCED in by the people
Of Louisville, for the boy was known
and beloved by all. Forty years have
passed away since then, and the boy
had been long forgotten except by his
adopted mother.
Anew days ago a distinguished look
ing gentleman, about fifty years Of
age, called upon the old lady, who was
on a visit to her son in this city.
Without introducing himself he be-
gan to interrogate her about her fam
lily, and spoke of things which she
remembers when her eldest child was
a little girl. He then made himself
known, and proved beyond doubt his
identity. He stated that when he
left her house he went to New Or
leans, and from that city to New
York, where, in after years, he en-
gagged in selling books. When he had
become a man he wrote a history Of
the disasters on the Mississippi
river" and aftarward became one of
the great publishers in New. York
city. The maps published by him
soon after the late war and since have
made his name familiar sll over the
country. He was at one time reported
to be worth over a half million dol
lars, but a series of reverses have
greatly reduced his fortune. He is,
however, in comfortable circumstances
at present, and owns a beautiful home
near Washington. He is married,
and has ten children.
The subject of the above sketch is
none other than Floyd, the great map
publisher.
