The Appomattox Apple-Tree.

Washington Special
General Grant has written the following to
comrade in Philadelphia:
When reached Appomattox H., Lee had
been in McClean's house for some time All
there is of the apple tree story is this; When
received a note from Lee asking to meet me at
Appomattox. where he then was sent him a
note saying would be there as soon as possible
There was an old apple orchard on the hillside
opposite McClean's house, where the advance of
Lees army had halted when the white flag was
exhibited. A farm road ran diagonally up the
hill through the orchard In places where trees
were close to the wheel tracks on the upper side
Of the road the roots had been cut off by being
continually run over This left a low bank be-
tween the road and trees 50 cut When the off
Ger General 0, E. Babcockl who bore my reply
to General Lee, reached him, he was seated on
one of these entertainments, with his feet in the
road and his back against the tree. He was
then invited to pass through our lines to house
to await my arrival U. S. GRANT

Mean and Lying Allegation.

Albany Evening Journal.
The meanest and most contemplate allegation
of Governor Cleveland's friends is made by the
Springfield Mass. Republican and the Boston
Herald Dem when they charge that Repub
lican newspapers and Republican politi
clans are responsible for the publication Of the
Cleveland seduction and bastardy scandal We
need not deny the charge against Republican
newspapers further than to say that we have in
mind only one Republican paper that has pub
lished the terrible tales in full-viz.. the
Boston journal; but it had been pub
lished in the Cincinnati Enquirer Demo
cratic) in the Detroit Evening journal (inde-
pendent Democrat) in the Pittsburg Leader
independently in the New York journal (inde-
pendent Democracy, and many others. The
Buffalo Telegraph itself is an independent pa
per. Papers like the Springfield Republican
and the Boston Herald, which have tried to help
Governor Clevelapd's cause by arguing that
greater men than he, such as Webster, Hamil-
ton and Clay, were all guilty Of worse practices,
are really responsible for tho intensity Of the
feeling manifested by Conscientious men and
women against the Governor The people--the
Christian people-win not listen to such an ar
gument. 1t only makes the matter worse

A TALK WITH JOHN KELLY.
The Tammany Chief Thinks Butler Would
Poll a Great Many Votes.

Saratoga Special.
About o'clock this evening your CORE
spondent met John Kelly in his accustomed
place on the piazza at the Grand Union. The
newspaper man read to him the dispatch as pub
lished this morning. Mr.. Kelly listened attent-
lively, and then said:
Him, HIM. That's very interesting arti-
cle"
'Does that part wherein you are represented
as boiling Cleveland and supporting Butler voice
your sentiments correctlyW
III M Did say would not support Cleye-
landp
'sYou gave me to understand sou
"Ah, yes, yes. Well Butler would be very
strong man, wouldn't he?"
Your correspondent admitted he would have
great strength among the labor and anti monop.
oily elements
Eyes nsadded Kelly, 'ihe would show surpris-
ing strength; he would get many more votes
than most people imagine
Would he draw most largely from the Demo-
Gratis or from the Republicans / asked inno-
Gently.
Mr.. Kelly said: 'Tn New York city nine
tenths of the Germans vote the Republican
ticket There is a strong element among those
Germans belonging to labor organizations which
would vote for Butler. In this instance votes
would be drawn from the Republicans. On the
other hand, almost every Irishman, members of
the labor organizations of every nationality, and
6lOuSduuS VI OotIeT Clbll0uS WHO FOUS Gl6
Democratic ticket, would vote for Butler. OF
course, many more Democrats than Republicans
would be attracted to Butler
"Then that would weaken the Democratic
ticket
"I'm afraid 50, replied Mr. Kelly, looking alb
stractedly at far-off star
"And might lose you New York;"
That's what some people tell me- said Mr.
Kelly again surveying the heavens,
by the way / added. II met to day Mr.
Angel, who was for years United States minis
ter at leading points abroad, and he assured me
that, although q Democrat, he had no hope for
the success Of the national ticket this year He
felt that the party had committed its usual fatal
blunder.0
Mr.. Angel is one Of the shrewdest observers,
and best posted men in the party remarked Mr..
Kelly, in a positive manner.
AT this moment Senator Grady, and several
other leading Tammany lights, approached.
They had just arrived in Saratoga. Their CON
sultation lasted until near IL O'clock.
Grady was questioned Immediately after, but
he said; swat till tomorrow, my boy, and
can tell You some news
