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 boys still do.

Y u s. e in them the soul of the man, \V> :.t hiR .•ouf-c eiioe Qictated and Lis judgment decid'd, there his heart was.

Thai morning General L-e had itivided the r.-iununt o; 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- * S' oil the las', trenches .-ver dua by Lee’s veterans ) Tiiat night. G. net d L-e held a council of war wdu Longs reet, Goidon and Filz L^e, ut winch it, was determined ihaf Gordon should advance e..rly the next morning io “feel” the emmv in his trout—tlnir it there was nothing but c*v- »*lri lie ehouid press on, followed bi L ngetreet —but that if Grant's infant rv 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 render.
