'chieftain, even though Mr. Davis

heart of the South ever beat responsive to
Lee, and however historians may deal with
the character, or achievements ot the differ

drama of our civil war will always give a
Chief place to him who lias gone. Irre
proachable in his social relations;, ho only
erred where others sinned. The traditions
of tis native State were more powerful than

ING TO THE MEMOitT OF , GEN. ROBERT E.
LEE.-Yesterday fnorning, at 11:30 o'clock,
Saint James' church Tvas crowded by the cit
izens o Wilmington who assembled there
to listen to the solemn requiem s for the de
parted dead. Th services throughout were
tolemn ; and impressive, Dr. A. A.Watson,
conducting the same, assisted by Rev. Mr.
Patterson, Mr.JMorrell, and Mr. Purcell. Mrs.
M. A. Cushing presiding at the organ. The
joint choir consisted of Mrs. Col. Gaston
Meares, Miss Hart, jles3rs. Northrop, Brown,
Lord, DeRosset, Jewett, Nash and Metts.
The services wer begun j by reading the
order for the burial of the dead :
"From the Resurrection and the life."
" The j days of 011 r age are three : score

A. H. YanBokkelen called the house to
order. He said tbathis meeting was the
suggestion of the (chamber ot Commerce,
and he presumed that all . present were
aware of the object for which it was called.
He nominated HodIr. S. French for Presi
dent. The motion j was adopted, and Mr.
F. W. Kerchner andlDr. J. F. McRee were
requested to convey he Judge to the chair.
Judge French paid a feeling tribute to
he memory of Genii Lee, and said that it
was not surprising that so many faces were
bathed in i tears, and so many coat sleeves
clad in mourning; fr we have lost a great
man, a good man, a Christian. There is a
void that cannot lie filled. General Lee,
the chieftain, soldierand hero, is gone. He
is dead. A few daysago we were all in joy
and gladness. To-day we pine in tears.
The Judge concluded his remarks by an
nouncing that, the business for which they
had assembled was now in . order.

tone. He had not proceeded far 'ere he w&s

mourns, the loss of otae whom ' none knew

r Colonel Robert! Strange" said that lan
guage on his part wasjmadequatc to convey
or even express his feelings or the feelings
of those who were to-day mourners. The
nation feels the Joss of General Lee. j A
great and good man has gone, and a people
whom he loved "so well wear . the habili
ments of mourning. His character was as
pure as an angel's. His life was that of a
Christian. His example in life should be
emulated by the youth of the couuffy. j
After Col. Strange had concluded Major
Engiehard offered a resolution, providing
for a committee whose duty it shall be to.
make the necessary arrangements to have a
eulogy delivered m this citron January 19,

after all, but little modified by the influehr
ccs of Christianity. It is contended that
in every age the butcheries of Cannae
are doomed to , recur x in , the fresher

and Sedan. But no existing history affords
a parallel to the . .illustrious and coti

Lee. . These, three men were Christians as
well as soldiers and by the common senti
ment of mankind stand as unmatched and
peerless among the men of this . and the
past as Washington did in a preceding
generation. And they arc representatives
