THE WAR.
GIVE GLORY TO THE LORD!!!
The rebel army of Northern Virginia is no
more. Its brilliant but treason-stained leader
is, by his parole, incapacitated from taking any
further part in the rebellion, until properly ex
changed, which we suppose means until the
rebels have in their hands for exchange a Union
lieutenant-gtneral.
On the 9th inst. General ,Lee, without fight
ing, surrendered to General Grant the entire
army of Northern Virginia, which, as our read
ers well know, composed the main strength of
the rebellion. This surrender may be regarded
as the virtual extinction of the pretended Con
federate Government. We give the substance
of the negotiations attending the surrender.
April 7, General Grant wrote to General Lee
as follows :—" General : the result of the last
week must convince you of the hopelessness of
further resistance on the part of the Army of
Northern Virginia in this struggle. I feel that
it is so, and regard it as my duty to shift from
myself the responsibility of any further effusion
of blood by asking of you the surrender of that
portion of the C. S. Army known as the Army
of Northern Virginia." On the same day
General Lee replied :—" Gederal : I have re
ceived your note of this date. Though not en
tirely of the opinion you express of the hope
lessness of further resistance on the part of the
Army of Northern Virginia, I reciprocate your
desire to avoid useless effusion of blood, and,
therefore, before considering your proposition,
ask the terms you will offer on condition of its
surrender."
April 8, Grant replied to the above that
there was but one condition on which he would
insist s viz.: That the men surrendered should
be disqualified for taking up arms against the
Government of the United States until properly
exchanged. He added :—" I will meet you, or
designate officers to meet any officers you may
name, for the same purpose, at any point agree
able to you, for the purpose of arranging defi
nitely the terms upon which the surrender of
the Army of Northern Virginia will be re
ceived." Lee replied on the same day :—" I
did not intend to propose the surrender of the
Army of Northern Virginia, but to ask the
terms of your propositions. To be frank, Ido
not think the emergency has arisen to call for
the surrender of this army; but as the restora
tion of peace should be the sole object of all, I
desire to know whether your proposals would
tend to that end. I cannot, therefore, meet:
you with a view to surrender the Army of
Northern Virginia; but as far as your proposi
tions may affect the Confederate States forces
under my command, and tend to the restoration
of peace, I should be pleased to meet you at
ten (10) A. M. to-morrow on the old stage road
to Richmond, between the picket lines of the
two armies."
April 9, Grant replied to Lee's note of yes
terday :—" As I have no authority to treat on
the'subject of peace, the meeting proposed for
ten A. M. to-day could lead to no 'good. I will
state, however,General, that I am equally anx
ious for peace with yourself, and the whole
North entertain the same feeling. The terms
upon which peace can be had are well under
stood. By the South laying down their arms
they will hasten that most desirable event, save
thousands of human lives and hundreds of mil
lions of property not yet destroyed. Sincerely
hoping that all our difficulties may be settled
without the loss of another life, I subscribe my
self," &c. This forced from the rebel loader.a.
reply in which he did propose to surrender his
army. " I now," he wrote, "request an inter
view, in accordance with the offer contained in
your letter of yesterday, for that purpose."
Grant's fuller detail of the conditions of the
surrender next follow. They are dated at Ap
pomattox C. H. April 9, 1865, and are as fol
lows :—" Rolls of all the officers and men to be
made in duplicate, one copy to be given to an
officer designated by me, the other to be re
- tained by such officer or officers as you may
designate, the officers to give their individual
paroles not to take arms against the Govern
ment of the United States until properly ex
changed, and each company or regimental com
mander to sign a like parole for the men of
their commands. The arms, artillery, and
public property to be parked .Iml6 stacked and
turned over to the officers appointed by me to
receive them. This will not embrace the side
arms of the officers nor their private horses or
baggage. This done, each officer and man will
be allowed to return to their homes, not to be
disturbed by United States authority so long as
they observe their parole and the laws in force
where they may reside." The following note
from Lee brought the correspondence to a sat
isfactorz close :-
44 HEAD-QUARTERS ARMY N. VIRGINIA,
9th April, 1865.
"Lieut.-Gen. U. S. Grant,.Conmanding U.
B. Army :
" General : I have received your letter of
this date, containing the terms of surrender of
the Army of Northern Virginia, as proposed by
you. As they are substantially the same as
those expressed by you in your letter of the Bth
instant, they are accepted. I will - proceed to
designate the proper officers to carry the stipu
lations into effect. •
" Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
R. E. LEE."
On the afternoon of the day the surrender
was formally made, and many a poor rebel sol
dier undoubtedly felt himself better out of the
scrape than he expected.
MISCELLANEOUS.
ACCIDENT TO SECRETARY SEWARD. - The
Secretary of State received a severe injury,
on the afternoon of the sth inst., by jumping
"from a carriage while the horses were running
away. When taken from the ground he was
insensible, but soon recovered his consciousness.
Surgeons were immediately in attendance, and
on examination his right arm was found brazen
a little below the shoulder, and his jaw frac
tured. His son and two ladies of the family
were in the same carriage, bat escaped unin
jured. The Secretary, we are happy to add, is
recovering.
THE ENTRANCE INTO PETERSBURGII. - The
Mayor of the town met the troops as they en
tered, and handed to the officers commanding
the following communication, offering the sur
render of the city:
"To Lieutenant- General Grant, commanding
the armies of the United States, or the
Major-General commanding the forces in
front of Petersburg :
" GENERAL: The city of Petersburg having
been evacuated by the Confederate troops, we,
a committee authorized by the Common Coun
cil, do hereby surrender the city to the United
States forces, with a request for the protection
of the persons and property of its inhabitants.
61 We are, respectf'y, your obedient servants,
W. W. TOWNS, Mayor.
D'ARCY PAUL,
_CHARLES T. COLLIER.
PETERSBURG, April 3, 1865.
''Protection was
promised orithe part of the
troops, and certainly there is no instance on
record where an army, after lying so long in
front of. a place of so much importance, and
losing so many men in the effort to capture it,
entered a city with less disorder, and doing less
damage to private property than in this case.
The citizens did not show themselves during
the forepart of the day, but after discovering
that our soldiers were orderly and well behaved,
with no disposition to disturb or annoy anyone,
they made their appearance at the doors and win
dows of their residences, and later in the day
evek entering familiarly into conversation,
many expressing their joy quietly that the
"Confeds" had gone, and hoping that the war
would soon be over.
RICHMOND—THE ENTRY AND OCCUPATION.—
The colored troops, headed by General Draper,
of Massachusetts, were the first to enter Rich
mond. The city was formally surrendered by
the Mayor, Joseph Mayo, who merely pleaded
for protection to life and property. All the
principal buildings had been fired by the rebel
authorities before leaving. Several banks, and
the Enquirer and Dispatch printing offices were
burned. General Weitzel took Jeff. Davis'
house for his head-quarters. General Shepley
was appointed Military Governor. Governor
Pierrepont is to transfer the State Government
of Virginia to Richmond from Alexandria
immediately.
CARRYING OUT THE REBEL PLAN.—Secretary
Stanton, the moment Richmond fell, sent Gen
eral Silas Casey there to commence the military
organization of the colored men for the defence
of the city and the manning of the forth. If
additional authority is needed for this proceed
ing, a very good law can be found in the " Con.-
federate' statute books, which provides for the
enrolment of these same people.
Secretary Stanton did another very odd
thing. Shortly after the Union prisoners were
let loose from the foul dens of Libby—the rebel
Bastile and Black Hole—he turned into that
hospitable retreat as many of the " Confed
erate" prisoners as were out April
,house
hunting.—.E'ress.
Exrr OF JEFF. DA.YIS.—The correspondent
of The Tribune describes it in this wise :—At
1.14 o'clock Sunday morning, while seated in
his pew at church, listening to the Rev. Dr.
Hoge, Jeff. Davis was handed a dispatch from
General Lee. Thereupon he instantly arose,
and walked hurriedly down the aisle, beneath
the questionings of all the eyes in the house.
The dispatch was to the effect that Richmond
must be evacuated during the coming night.
And so his ex-Excellency, the late President of
the late Confederacy went forth from the
sanctuary to pack up his "portable property"
in hasty preparation for a journey on the Sab
bath day. Like a thief in the night, he stole
away with trepidation and fear, and with an
agonizing sense of the shortness of time. As
the preacher closed the services, the colored
sexton handed him a note from his ex-Excel
lency. The face of the preacher waxed sickly
with despair, while that of the sexton glowed
with joy too.great for ,concealment. The cha
grin of the one was quite as marked as the
grin of the 'other. The former begged his con
gregation to tarry, and told them in sad utter
ances that he did not expect to minister to
them any more. His farewell over, he too
proceeded furiously to the packing of " portable
property"—he also intended to journey on the
Sabbath. This Dr. Hoge, it will be remem
bered, visited England two years ago, ostensibly
to procure a supply- of Bigles, but really an
emissary of the rebellion. He was largely
feted by the British adherents of the South, and
doubtless did much harm. Since his return he
has been in the habit of making camp speeches,
full of hot unction, and- perorated with pre
sumptuous appeals to the God of Battles.
NORTH CAROLINA
FROM SHERMAN'S ARMY.—Newbern advices
to March 24 . say that this army is still at'rest
at Goldsboro, and that thousands of those who
have recovered from sickness are rejoining it.
The enemy is quiet, though much demoralized,,
and desertion is the order of the day. Citizens
all along our line, and from a great distance in
the interior, are continually coming in of their
own accord to take the oath of allegiance, and
appear to be greatly disappointed if they can
not be accommodated. 'They come faster than
convenience allows. Great distress exists
among them for want of clothing and other
necessaries. The people of Goldsboro gave
our troops a most cordial welcome upon their
entrance, and greatly rejoiced over their arri
val. The same feeling exists throughout the
State. If the people of North Carolina are
kindly treated, and their generosity and confi
dence in us is appreciated, and their present
urgent neeessities_relieved, the State will at,
once return to the Union.
From Newbern, April 1, we learn that a de
tachment from General Reilly's command wns
sent out on a reconnoissance yesterday beyond
Little river. They found the enemy's cavalry
in considerable force, but drove them back
some three miles, r6turning without any loss.
The rebel forces are north of Tar river.
LATEST-TUESDAY.
April 5, Sheridan made another attack upon
the dying army of Lee (which surrendered on
the 9th), and captured a thousand prisoners,
six guns, and a mile of wagon train, together
with the drivers. „Five of the guns were new,
and of the Armstrong pattern, said to have been
a present from the English Government to the
Confederacy. They are a beautiful specimen
of manufacture. This occurred between Ame
lia C. H. and Jetersville.
The fragments of the rebel Va. legislature are
considering a proposition from Mr. Lincoln—
said to be very liberal—for the formal return of
the State to the Union.—A.mong the speeches
made in Washington in the rejoicings over Lee's
surrender, was a very brief one by the Presi
dent, in which he called for the tune " Dixie"
from the band, sayitig " I had heard
that our adversaries over the way had attempted
to appropriate it. I insisted.,yesterday we had
fairly captured it. [Cheers and laughter.] I
presented the question to the Attorney- General,
and he gave his opinion that it is our lawful
prize. [Laughter and cheers]. I ask the
band to give us a good turn upon it."
GEN. BUTLER'S speech was very sensible.
He recommended that all the leaders shall be
disfianchised and disqualified for holding any
position under the Government, but the masses,
including the negroes, should have the right of
citizenship. The address was loudly applaud
ed.—Gen. Steele had moved north from Pen
sacola, toward Mobile, and had captured March
25, the rebel General Clinton, mortally
wounded, two railway trains at Evergreen, and
tore up the track at Evergreen and Pollard, on
the Montgomery road.—The railroad running
from Petersburg to Burkesville is being rapidly
repaired. Supplies will be forwarded to
Grant's Army over this road.—Jeff. Davis
was in Danville on April 3. All the St. Al
bans' raiders except one, were finally dis
charged, April 10, at Toronto.
Oue hundred thousand stand of small arms,
one hundred pieces of improved light artillery,
five hundred wagons and teams with a large
amount of ammunition, were obtained by Gen.
Grant by the capitulation of Lee. The impres
sion is, that Lee had not over 2:5,000 men left
of his grand army when he surrendered.
ITEMS
The Secretary of State has, by proclamation,
offered a reward of one thousand dollars each
for the capture of raiders entering the country
from foreign territory and committing capital
felonies ; also a reward of five hundred dollars
for the like capture of any of their abettors, the
reward to be paid on conviction of the of
fenders.—Fortress Monroe dispatches say of
a large arrival of pilgrims from the South at
that place :—"' The condition of these refugees
is of the most distressing nature—many of them
being encumbered with numerous children,
barefooted and ragged, and the greater number
totally devoid of even a change of clothing.
They were taken charge of by the provost mar
shal, and will be sent north in a few days."
LABORATORY OF JAS. R. CHILTON & Co., NEW YORK,
'March 11, :861.—we have recently made a careful
analysis of the SAIIBURO PORT WINE, prepared by
Mr. Alfred Speer, and do not hesitate in pronouncing
it pure; it contains all properties of the Samburg or
Port grape and therefore, for medicinal uses it is su
perior to other wines.
Its principal effect upon the system are mildly stim
ulating, diuretic, sudorific and tonic. It will prove
beneficial in Affections of the Kidneys, and Chronic
diseases, with general debility of the ionstitutiop.
Physicians may safely recommend it to their patients,
in place of the many doubtful mixtures too often sold
as pure wines. _ _

U. S. 7-30 LOAN.
By authority of the Secretary of the Treasury, the
the undersigned has assumed the General Subscription
Agency for the sale of 'United ''States Treasury Notes,
bearing seven and three-tenths per cent. interest, per
annum, known as the
SEVEN-THIRTY LOAN.
These Notes are issued under date of August 15th, 1564,
and are payable three years from that time, in cur
rency, or are convertible at the option of the holder
into
11. S. 5-20 Six per cent.
GOLD-BEARING BONDS.
These bonds are now worth a premium of nine per
cent., including gold interest from Nov., which makes
the actual profit on the 7-30 loan, at current rates, in
cluding interest, ' about ten per cent. per annum, be
sides its exemption from State and. munwipaPaxation,
which adds from one to three per cent. more, according .
to the rate levied on other property. The interest 'is
payable semi-annually by coupons:attached to each
note, which may be cut off and sold to any bank or
banker
The interest amounts to
One cent per day on a 856 note.
Two cents " 8100. "
Ten " LL Ct $5OO it
20 to. tt itBlooo AL
$1 Li ti 05000 "
Notes of all the denominations named will be
promptly furnished on receipt of subscriptions. This.
THE ONLY LOAN IN MARKET
now offered by the Government, and it is confidently
expected that its superior advantages will make it the
GREAT 'POPULAU LOAN OF THE PEOPLE.
Less than $50,000,000 remain unsold, which will pro
bably be disposed of within the next 14 days, when
the notes will undoubtedly command a premium, as
has uniformly been the case on closing the subscrip
tions to other Loans. After the exhaustion of this
first issue the sale will continue upon a new issue in
which the privilege of convertibility will not occur at
so early a date as in this now on the market.
In order that citizens of every town and sections of
the'dountry may be afforded facilities for taking the
loan, the National Banks, State Banks, and Private
Bankers throughout the country have generally
agreed to receive subscriptions at par. Subscribers
will select their own agents, in whom they have con
fidence, and who only are to be resposible for the de
livery of the notes for which they receive orders.
