THE srRRENDRR OF IgE.

THE SURRENDER OF LgE.
Ex-P Postmaster General Tyner spent ten
minutes with his old cliief before noon.
As ne left he said: "I am very glad to
know that our commander is better this
morning. But it makes all who know
him. and especially all who were officially.
connected with him, very sad 70 feel that
after all his days are really so Few. To-
day is the twentieth anniversary Of the
sprrendero Of Lee. Itwould have been q
curious coincidence If the General died to-
day
The fact that It Is exactly twenty years
since Grant achieved his greatest victory
has led to o revival of talk about the inci-
dents of the surrender. The General him,
self has talked With his Yisitora about the
day. Une' Of them this morning asked him
whether he took General Lees sword
when Il was offered him.
"No,o % replied the General, VI did not.
Iremember that IL wasa handsome sword,
and thatit glistened in the sunlight like
SO much gold
After paIsing for \ moment as iftolet
hia mind wander back to the time Of which
he spoke, he continued: !,
General Lee and all his staff presented
q picture that i will never forget ] eau

Their uniforms, think, Wero brand new,
or else had been carefully polished for the

Iguired the visitor.
Oh, ! had on my every day working
clothes" was the prompt reply.
ASslyIRsARY OF ITlR DEATH STRUGGLE.
While one Of the physicians was talking
with him this morning, reference was
made, incidentally,to the fact that one
week ago to-day he was on the point Of
death, and only saved by timely injec-
tion Of brandy
aYou saved my life then, Doctor
General Grant SAID, "but what use was it?r
"We have been doing thebest we could"
was the physicians reply.
"Iappreciate it all ," continued the Gen.
eral, Though don't say much about 1t.
Iiwould trumpet you from one end OF the
world to the other if5you could cure me
entirely
As tho sick man, lying back amid his
pillows on his arM chair said this, he
looked his physician straight IN the eye.
There was q sudden CLEAN and brighten
ing up In his gaze as II he were trying to
read his doctors mind before he could
The physician hesitated but a few sec
onds, yet II told the tale. Of the hopeless,
battle that was being fought. Reading his
fate in his doctof'g nind, the General con.
tinped without waiting for answer.

Russia's perfdy and treachery, as recently
exposed, is the topic Of the hour; An ex=

Afghan outpests, which was demanded Of
the 81. Petersburg officials, has not yet ar
