R. '-Lee. has heen struck dfwn hy paralysis, and is not expected to re- ! cover, will be received even at this crisis with universal interest, ami j will everywhere excite a sympathy and regret which testify to the deep impression made oil the world at large hy his character and achieve ments. Few are -the generals who 'have earned since history began a greater military reputation; etill ewer are the men of similar emi nence, civil or military, whose per sonal qualities would bear compar ison with -his. The bitterest ene mies of his country hardly dared to Lwhisper a word against the charac-f ter of her most distinguished gener al, while neutrals regarded him with an admiration for his deeds and a respect for, his lefty and unselfish nature which almost grew into ven eration, and his own countrymen learned to look up ta him with as much confidence and esteem as they ever felt for Washington, and with an affection which the cold demean or and austere temper f Washing ton could never aspire. The death of such a man, even at a moment so exciting as the present, when all thoughts are absorbed by a nearer and present conflict, would be felt as a misfortune by all who still retain any recollection of the interest with which they- watched the Virginia campaigns, and by thousands who have almost forgotten the names of Fredericksburg; and Chancellors viHe, the Wilderness and Spottsyl vania. By the South it would be rscognized'aa a national calamity as the Jess of a man not only inex pressibly dear to an unfortunate people by his intimate association with their fallen hopes and their proudest recollections, but still able to render services such as no other man could perform, and to give counsel whose value is enhanced tenfold bj tru- source from which it comes. We hove, even yet, that a life so honorable and so useful, so pure and nobl in itself, so valuable to a country that has much need of men like him, may be spared and prolonged for further enjoyment of domestic peace and comfort, for further service" to his country; we cannot bear to think that a career so singularly admirable and so sin gularly unfortunate should; close so sdon and so sadly. By the tens of thousands who will feel as we do when thty read the news that now lies before us may be measured the impressions, made upon the world by the life and the deeds of the great chief of the Army of Virginia. "Whatever differences of opinion may exist as to the merits of the generals against whom he had to contend, and especially of the an tasronist bv whom he was at last overcome, no one pretending to un derstand in the least either the gen eral principles of military science oj the particular conditions of the American war, doubts that Gen Lee gave highor proofs of military genius and soldiership than any ol his opponents. He was outnumber ed from first to last ; and all his vic tories were gained against greatly superior forces, and with troo(ps greatly deficient in every j necessary of war except courage and discip line. Never, perhaps, was so much achieved against odds so terrible. Trre-Sonthira floldiersatt4hit meo re parable Southern infantryto' which a late Northern writer renders due tribute of respect-were no doubt as splendid troops as! a general could desire ; but;the different fortunes of the East and West proves that the Virginia army owed something of its excellence to its chief. Always out numbered, always opposed to a foe abundantly supplied with food, transport, ammunition, clothing all that was wanting to his own men he was always able to make cour age and-skill supply the Ideficiency of strength and of supplies; and from the day when he assumed the com mand, after the battle of Seven Pines, wher , Gen. Joseph Johnston was disabled, to the morning of the final surrender at Appomattox Court House, he was almost invariably victorious in the field. At Gettys burg, only he was defeated in a pitch- 1"rr... ila d ROCKINGHAM.

But no success could avail him anything from the moment that Gen. Grait brought the inexhaustible population of the North and, employing Sherman to cut them off from the rest of the Confederacy, set himself' to work to wear them out by the simple pro cess of exchanging two lives for one. From that 'moment the fate of Rich mond and of the South ' was sealed. When ' Gen. Lee commenced the campaign of the Wilderness he had, we believe, about 50,000 men ;, his adversary had thrice that number at hand, and a still larger! force in re serve.. When the Army ol V irainia i - w marched out of Richmond it still numbered some 20,000 men ; after a retreat of six days in the faGe of an overwhelming enemy. witlTa crush ing artillery a retreat impeded by constant fighting and harassed by countless hordes of cavalrv- 8,000 were given up by the capitulation ot Appomattox Court House. Bril- iant as were Gen. Lee's earlier tri umphs, we believe that he gave high er proofs of genius in his last cam paign, and that hardly any of his victories Were so honorable to. him self and his army as that of his six days' retreat.

And well they may, for his character and his life afford a complete answer to the rsproaches commonly cast on mon ey-grumbling, mechanical America A country which has giyiu birth to men like him, and those who fol lowed him, may look the chivalry of Europe in the face without shame for the fatherland of Sidney and of Bayard never produced a nobler soldier, gentleman and Christian tnan Uen. .Robert Hi.

No! the incongru ity' is in ourselves, who live so far below the privileges, the joys, and the peace that are the rightful pos sessions of all who know the mean ing of real personal religion.

" It is pleasing to note that among the 800 to whom we have so fre quently referred, selected from all classes of society, one of the most interesting, and cheering facts ob served is Itbt only how frequently persons ajttain to the age of one hun dred, but that those who do so are consmonl y cheerful and happy, with out malady, enjoying the evening's shade of life and the tranquility that accompanies it; and that they, in most instances, pass away in perfect calm, without a struggle, realizing in a remarkable way the words of Dr. Elliotson : "TJjy thoughts and feeling3 shall not die, xsor leave thee when gray haire are nign, A melancholy slave ! : ; But an old age serene aoe? bright, And lovely as a LaplandTnight, Shall lead thee to thy grave."
