There was no ambulance cotm. no hospital flags and tents, and no hesrta of women sickened with fear. at the sound of artillery. It was the pageantry of war with none of its hor rors. All this means that on that day the equestrian statue of General Robert E . Lee. mcunted on a megniflcent gran ite pedestal, foity-two feet high, was unveiled here. The ceremonies took place amid such salvos of .artillery, such rerinc7 nf veterans and voiuuteeis such enthusiasm and parade, a have never been heard or seen in Richmond, and indeed rarely surpassed on a similar occasion anywhere.

His father had won a brilliant fame as a cavalry leader and the signal . honor of the warm friendship of ash- j ington.

The fifth day breaks, and lo! the Federal army has vanished, not a man of them save the dead, the wounded, and the prisoners remaining on tne Richmond aide of the Rappahannock.
