GENERAL LEE.
A gen-graph of General Lee, as lie ap
pears as President of the Washington Col
:)age, Lemlogien, Virginia, is drawn by Mr
Swinton: •
'Although it was no later than nine an
the motning, Gen Les had ttlready gone to
Ills office in the college, which is but a
stone's throw removed. 4'
"Here was a table piled up with papers
aid college catalogues and text books, but
no reminisomme of war waa visible, no
sword or spur, or Insignia. Whatever met
the eye was entirely academia and not in
the least military. And seated at the table
was a handsome looking gentleman, dressed
lu o a uniforM suit of pepper and salt color,
—a very portlxa l l i i-promeri'oa gentleman,
of some four- i ty,wilh a fine btons d
complexion, and a nobly modeled nose,com•
1 - act head, gray hair and beard of the same
color, closely oropped—who rose to shake
bands inn courtly, gramous manner. It was
the men who wielded the thunders of Chew
eolloreville and Chickalteminy—it was
President Lee. He is putting off the has
nese of war and its thoeghts, reminiscences
and plosions, and is denoting himself en
elusively to the interests of Washington
College.
"To this feet was due that, on the occa
sion of this, my first interview, I was only
able to see him for a few minutes. for he
was on the point of leaving to meet an ap
pointment with the CoMmon Council of the
town—a body before which he had to lay a
questioner great pith and moment, to wit: '
the grading of a new path way to the col
lege building. It la such abstruce and dif
ficult problems that now engage his &Men
lion, and if I learn aright, he finds it har
der to hold His own in those controversies
than he did in the deadly Imminent point
of battle."

come into our midst and endeavor stealthly
and often at the hour of midnight, to pois
on your minds and embitter year hearts
against the white race—your neighbors.
Any mut, white or black, who does this to
procure office, or through any other motive,
is a fiend 'lumina shape and deserves the
execration of mankind. If this is pereis
ted in what will be the result t "A con
flict of races, of course." From which
Clod delver us. See the riot which occur
red in New Orienns—white men got it up,
and when the danger became imminent
many of them lied, only .a few of their num
ber killed, but some fifty or silty unsus

encourakie Boob a state of affairs as • con

of danger arrives, could not be overtaken
by the fastest our in our city.

tioned some things he never before heard,
In that be has none the advantage of me,
for he has spoken of many things that he
did that I have not heard of before. He
boasts of what the Northern army did, but
I did not know he wu with them. 'lt is
only very recently that he invaded the
South. He reminds me of the bold front

of eseue, used 'thh pitchfork very freely,
killing the bear t the husband In the loft
crying out all the while, at the top of his
voice, "Lay on, Nanny ! Lay on, Nucl."
When assured that the bear ives galls dead,
he desoended from his safe retreat, walked
up to the side of his wife, and with the cis
of a gaintizook, exalt/Anted, "N•nay. ain't
we brave." The gedlleman *ea afford to
