LEE AT APPOMATT0x.
One of the Most Notable Scenes In the
History of tho War-The
Parting of Comrades.

Men who saw the defeated general
when he came forth from the chamber
where he had signed the articles OF
capitulation say that he paused a mo-
ment as his eyes rested once more on
the Virginia hills, smote his hands to-
gether as though in some excess OF
inward agony, then mounted bis gray
horse, Traveller. and rode calmly away.
If that was the very Gethsemane
Of his trials, yet he must have had
then one moment Of supreme. If chas-
tened, Joy. AS he rode quietly down
the lane leading from the scene OF
capitulation he passed into view OF bis
men-of such as remained Of them.
The news of the surrender had got
abroad. and they were waiting. grief
stricken and detected, upon the hill
sides when they caught sight Of their
old commander on the gray horse.
Then occurred one OF the most notable
scenes In the history Of the war. In
an instant they were about him, bare
headed, with tear wet faces, thronging
him, kissing his hand, his boots, his
saddle; weeping, cheering him amid
their tears, shouting his name to the
very skies. He said: "Men, we have
fought through the war together.
have done my best for you. Ny heart
is too full to say more."-From "Rob-
ert e. Lee, the Southerner."

Old London ceekshens.

Medieval London, besides being =
"city of taverns," was famous for its
cookshops, such as the place on the
river bank described by Fitzstephen in
the thirteenth century: There every
day We may call for any dish Of meat,
roast, fried or sodden, fish both small
and great, venison and fowl, II friends
come upon a sudden wearied with
travel to q citizens house and they be
loath to wait for curious preparations
and dressings Of fresh meat let the
servant run to the water side, where
all things that can be desired are at
hand" This particular place Of public
cookery apparently did an indoor as
well as an outdoor trade, for Fttz-
stephen further described 1t as being
used both day and night by multi
tudes OF soldiers or other strangers
who refresh themselves to their con-
tent on roast goose, the fowl Of Afri-
ca and the rare gadwit Of IOnia." But
what were the two last mentioned
Viands?-LOndon Chronicle.

A Curious Structure.

On the road from Clifton downs TO
Avonmouth the traveller will pass, in
the Avon gorge, curious structure to
which a singular tradition is attached.
relates the London Tatler. The story
Is that a person named Cook about
century ago was told by a gypsy IN the
Leigh woods that his only son would
be killed by a serpent before he reach
ed the age OF twenty-ons. To avert
this he built high tower and shut his
son In the topmost room with the in
tention OF secluding him there until the
fatal age was passed. However, by &C
eident a viper was taken up in . fagot
to the room to light the fire. and it
crept from the fagot and bit the boy
90 that he died. Therefore the tower
was called Cooks Folly, and that is It's
name to this day, whatever is the true
