FlTzHUGH LEES SPEECH.
The General Captured a Delegation
of Indiana Editors.

| Washington Letter In Buffalo News.
! few evenings ago a number of the
hotel habitues were sitting in the lobby
| of the New Willard swapping stories
when one of them told how the late
| General Fitz-Hugh Lee captured a large
| company of Hoosier editors.
1T was in June, $780, said the mar
rator, land the Republican Editorial as
ISOLATION of Indiana was making a tour
of Virginia. At that time it was the
custom of this association to make sum
mer excursions to some section or other
of the country. generally giving from two
to three weeks to their outing. On this
occasion We had passed through part of
Kentucky and had entered Virginia, in
tending to make several stops at various
places of interest. We had given a cou-
pie of days to White SULPHUR Springs and
several hours to Clifton Forge, at last ar
irving one afternoon at Natural Bridge.
In our party were about 100 men and
women and we had been having a most
delightful time.
AT Natural Bridge, after we had par
taken of dinner, the landlord came to me
and Informed me that General Lee was
then in the dining room, having just ar
rived. General Lee had only short time
before that finished his term as governor
of the state. l asked for an introduce
scented said to him that 1 was the presi-
dent of the association touring Virginia,
that the association was composed of In
diana republican editors and their wives
and that / felt sure they would be highly
pleased If he would address them. He
asked what ne could say. told him he
could talk about Virginia-that we were
there to learn all we could about the
grand Old Dominion that had given birth
to so many great men-or he could talk
on any topic that pleased him. l noticed

How would your people stand little

Il replied that 1t would suit them, that
number of them had served in the
Union army and would not object to hear
ing an ex-reb. He accepted the invita-
ton, and word was sent around to the
company to collect in the pavilion
The general branched off into a glorI-
iication of the deeds of the southern
soldiers. ! looked over the audience and
thought 1 saw a disposition to resent this
apparent glorficaton of the southern
soldiers and the southern cause but the
speaker was not interrupted Presently
the speaker began to talk about the cour-
age, endurance and heroism of the north
ern troops. In eloquent strains he pictur-
ed the awful struggle of those momentous
four years the carnage, the final despera-
ton of the south. the terrible destruc-
ton of property and then the end BY
this time his audience was enthusiastic.
Tears had been seen in more than one
eye as he depicted the suffering and death
of SO many brave soldiers and the desc
lation of so many homes. He then chang
ed his theme again and talked of pa
triotism and love of country and rever-
ence of the flag and told of the new 10y

the south in the result of the war clos
