Gen. Lee on the Object Of the War.


Mr.. John Leyburn, of Baltimore, pub.
lishes in tho Century a highly interesting
account of an interview which he had
with Gen. r. E. Lee shortly after the
close of tho war. What was said on the
subject of slavery as the object of the
war is reported by Mr.. Leyburn as fol-
lowe: fh
"After dwelling with emphasis and
with feeling on this point, the General
then introduced another topic which
also moved him deeply, viz, the persist.
ent manner in which the leading North.
ern Journals, and the Northern people
generally, insisted that the object of the
war had been to secure the perpetuation
Of slavery. On this point he seemed not
only indignant, but hurt. He said 1t
was not true. He declared that. for
himself, he had never been an advocate
Of slavery; that he had oemancipated
most Of bis slaves years before the war,
aud had sent to LIBERIA those who were
willing 10 go; that tho latter were writ.
ing back most affectionate letters to him,
come Of which he received through the
lines during the war. He said, also, as
on evidence that the colored people did
not consider him hostile to their race,
that during his visit to Baltimore some
Of them who had known him when he
was stationed there had come up in tho
most afectionate, manner and put their
hands into the carriage window to shake
hands with him. They would hardly
have received him In His way, he
thought; had they looked upon him as
fresh from a war intended for their or.
preston and injury. One expression
must give in his own words

in o war to perpetuate slavery, l am

ness"
This is precisely what one would have
expected to hear from Gen. Lee, and it
accords, We fully believe, with the gene.
raj sentiment of the South. Grants
armies would have made short work, of
their opponents II they had encountered
only those Confederates who were fight.

In the city at lao p. M, and received

a young wife had Just settled in her

home at very late hour and much the

into the house his wife was very much

must lie down at once; and in q moment

the patients feet and hands. When the
doctor came and examined him, and
