A fumily con nection and the nearest living representa tive of the great champion of American in dependence, General iLee has been tho Washington of the Confederate war; lika Washington, a man "whom envy dared not hate," but without even the'otie dark stain of doubt, if' not of dishonor, which tho death of Major Andre has left on the mem ory of his prototype. No more "selfeas man and stainless gentleman" ever lived: no soldier ever set a more admirable ex ample of the soldierly virtues of honor, cbivalric generosity, and manly simplicity; no great man ever retired into obscurity, after witnessing alike the ruin of his cuiso. and the destruction of his private fortune with more of Christian patience and un shaken fortitude. . .
