Mr. Miller: * No—m one of the books

' Do you t .ink there aie any grounds
or charging Mr. Hemphill with having

Mr. Miller: “I do not. Mr. Hemp

utiou that h vould be ureuited by such

■onstrue the law so as to allow such.
Ttiere are I think some over estimates of

not the man who mude the mea-uiement

I have just rrturned from an exceed

of the county, and other gentlemen ot
the village and neighborhood were very

Sheridan moved on Appomattox station,

believe that the act of Jones in placing
the bottle iu a tab of water and after

was done under the mental excitement
caused by a knowledge of the fatal mis

THE TRUE STORY OF APPOMATTOX COURT
HOUSE.
The Columbus Sun “has just
received a quauiitv of Black Printers*
Ink.” We should like to know the
difference between the inks used bj
black and white printers. Th * Sun
will find lew purchasers for the kind
it h.is on hand. Sambo has not
learned the ‘-art preservative” to any
great extent.
I will not go back to detail how Gen
Lee’s thin line was brokeu ou the 2d o
Apr’l, 1865, aud he thereby comp lied,
under every disadv .n’age, to evacuHte
Richmond and Petersburg and seek the
junction wun Johnson, which he had
determined ou aud actually be?ou to ac
complish six weeks before. N »r need I
tell of bis cruel disappoin m nt iu find
itg at Amelia Lourt Hon<6 tl at his posi
tive orders had been disregarded, and
the rations intended for las furnishing
army sent to Richmond to fie destroyed,
while the trains were loaded with con
signments to Sherman. I will not sketch
the events of the “running tight” from
Amelia Springs to Appomattox. Suffice
it to say that Oraut baa been enabled,
oy having the shorter route, by the delay
of Gen. Lee on account of the swollen
condition of the streams, and by the
necessary halt at Amelia Court House,
to throw this immense army ou the flank
of his an agonist, to cut off our line of
re reat io Danville, and to be in po
sition t j continually harrass our jaded,
starving troops. The broken down
mules aud horses were unable to drag the
Wagona (even lightly loaded) and the a'-
tillery along the miry roads. Sheridan’s
splendidly mounted and equipped cav
alry were able to make most advantageous
forays upon the trains, aud often Lee
waa obliged to bait and fight for hoars,
and fight eight or ten times his numbers
uuon the most disadvantageous ground,
until the jaded teams could pull the
trains out of the mud.
Iu all of these contests the Army of
Northern Virginia maintained its old
piestige; the men fought with heroic
courage, aud won some most brilliant
victories. Bat the constant march)Dg
and fighting without rations or si .ep
steadily and surely decim .ted the thin
rank of this noble baud. Meu who had
b-.en true to the’r colon from the eorlv
dais of the war fell out of ranks aud
were captured simply because it was be
yond their puw^r or pby ical endurance
to go any lurther; m.my who had bet n
hitherto good soldiers straggled; ti e de
voted and strong found great difficulty iu
preserving orgtnizanon and efficiency;
and as tb ■ retreat roll, d on by the light
f burning wagons and to the music of
horse artillery, mtnglec with the rattle
of small arms, the corps commanders
saw that the days of thut grand u d army
Were numbered.
Accordingly, on Thursday uighl (the
6th of April) they In Id a oonfetebce, at
which they commissioned Geu. W. N.
rendition (chief of artillery) to inform
Gen. Lee that iu their judgment the
time had come when negotiations should
oe oeened with Gen. Grant.
General Pendleton thus describes the
interview : “ G*^ ueral Lee was lying on
the ground. No other Leatd the con
versation between him aud injself. He
received my communication with tne
reply, Gracious heavens! I trust it has
not come yo that.’ Aud added, ‘Gene
ral, we have yet too many bold men to
think of laying dowu our rms. Tne en-
»my Jo not tight wit spmt, wuile oar

Liih hi my into two wu ga, under Gordon
and Longstriel—Gordon having tne ad
vance and Longstreet the rear. Upon
the re; uiseot the cavahy, Gordon’s corps
advanced through the village and spent
another night o! sleepless vigilance and
anxiety, while L 'Ugstr*-et, four miles iu
U e rear, had to entrench against tbe
Army ol the Potomac under Meade. (I
gaz-d the other day witn mournful luter-

bad gotten up iu too large force to be
driven. Lse should lialt and notify Gen
eral Lee, th.it u flag of truce be raised,
and the useless sacrifice ot life stopped.
Accord ii gly, on the morning of th-
memorable 9.L of April, Goidou aud
Fnz Lee st acked Bberidau’s splendid
cavalry, outnumbering them more than
two to oue and flushed witn full conti
deuee of victory and tbe tssurance that
it they needed support tue “Army of the
James” was close at hand. Yet, despite
these odds and the exhaustion ol thesi
tarnishing meu. they went iu.o that figut
with the heroic courage which ever char
actenzed that old corps, ami proved
themselves do* uuwo thy of Stonewall
Jackson, Ewell, Eirlv, Gordon, Rodee,
Rimseur, Pcgram, J. A. Walk«r, C. A.
Evai s, and other noble le; d rs whom
they had been wont to fo.low to victory.
Utterly unable to wi’inland tbe onset,
Snendau hastened in person to hurry up
the Aimy of the James, while Gordon
drove Ins •‘invincible tioopers” more
than a miU, and captured and brought
off two pieces of artillery and a large
number of prisoners.
Had only Sheridan barred the way, the
surrender had not occurred at Appomat
tox Court House; but Gordon only drove
back the cavalry to find biinsi-lf con-
frontid by the “Army of the James,” and
the road blocked by ten times his num
bers.
What immediately followed if best told
in the eloquent words ot Co’onel C. S.
Yenable in his speecn at tbe great Lee
Memorial meeting in Richmond, Novem
ber 3d, 1870:
“At three o’clock on the morning of
that fatal uay General Lee rode forward,
still noping that he might break through
the countless hordes cf the enemy which
hemmed ns in. Halting a short distance
in the rear of onr vanguard, he sent me
on to General Gordon to ask him if he
could break through the enemy. I found
General Gordon and General Fitz Lee
on their front line in the dim light of
tlu mrrning arranging an attack. Gor
don’s reply to tne message (I give ttoe
express.ve phrase of tbe gallant Georgian)
waa this: “Tell General Lee I have
fonght my corps to a frazzle, and I fear
1 can do nothing unless Lm heavily sop
ported by Longstreet a corps.*' When I
bore this message back to General Lee,
he add.* ‘Then there ia nothing left me
but to go and see General Grant, aLd I
would rather die a tuousand deaths.
Convulsed with passionate grief, many
were tbe wild worda which we anoke
we stood around him* Said one : “Oh.
General, wuat will history say >f tne »ur-
reud* r of the army in the field ?”
He replied : “i. s; I know tney will
say hard tbiugs of ns; they will not uu-
dei stand how we were overwhelmed by
numbers; but that i* not the qutstion
C"lonel; the question is, is it right to
surrender this army? If itis right, ‘ lieu
I will take all the responsibility.” Fel-
iow-soldiers, though he a'ooe was calm
in that hour of humiliation, the soul ot
our great Captain underwent the throes
of death for his grand old army surren
dered, and for h’s people, so soon to lie
at the mercy of the foe; and tne sorr >ws
of thii first death at Appomattox Court
House, with tbe fcfflictions wi ich tell
upon tbe devoted South, weight dupoD
his mighty beat t to its breaking, when
the welcome messenger cam- trom Goo
to tmnslate him to his home in Heaven ”
But this letter is long enough, anu I
must res rve for another GeLeial L^-’s
own account of his meeting with General
Grant, and ether incidents ol tne sur
