How About Recruiting? I
Tbo surrender of Leu's army mggests
mo inquiry as to wnetner rooruiting is to
dc rontinucu in tno iMortnern states under
tho President's last call for troops. It is
quito uulikilv that there will bo any or-
ganized rebel army east of the Mississippi,
in Southwestern Louisiana and Texas.thero
may bo somo show of rebellion foroe, but,
at tho most, it cannot amount to very
much.
Tbo actual fighting over, and tho no
ccsity for strong garrisons nt strategic
or otllcr"'9e important points in tho bonth
n removed, anu ot courao the government
wi not need to keep in tho field an army
as laree as that which it has maintained
for three years past. Taking all tbcKo.done. Rebel armies are still in the field ;
considerations into view, it seems hordlv
neessary that thc admini.tration should
persist in ocmaiioing the 3uu,uuu soldiers
cauea for by the President's last proola-
mation, EtimatiDg tho number of men
now in activo sorvioo and fit Tor duty at
000,000, it is probable that by the olosa
0f tb0 year not more than 300,000 will re-
main, owing to the fact that the term of

Surrrender of Lee.
Wc give our readers in the present is
sue of our paper thc most glorious news
presented thorn for four yoars past. Gen
eral Lee and the Army of Northern Vir
ginia have surrendered to General Grant
aud tbo army under his command. This
great and bloodless victory Achieved on
dunday afternoon, ot Appomutox Court
House, about eighty miles west from (
tt cliuiond, and about forty mijes from!
Lynchburg, the point Leo's army had rcaoh-1
ed on its rttrei't towards Lynchburg. It.
will be seen from the correspondence pub-1
lishcil, that the surrender was demanded
by General Grant, and accepted by Gcu ;
erul Lee. Tbe conditions are liberal aud :
honorable, and wo havo no doubt will be'
-lorupuloualy obcr'ved by both sides. By !
ho terms of thisurromJer, the Army of
Northern Virginia is disbanded, and tbo!
men and officers, from Leo down to the '
lowest grade, aro sent to their homes, not
to take up arms again against the United
Slates until regularly exchanged, whioh,
of courso, will never be. It is virtually a
treaty of peace. General Grant, in his
note to General Lee, says "peaco is 'my
first deeire,'' and General Leo in accepting
tha proposals desires to know if they
"would tend to that end,'1 and says (t;ho
restoration of peace should be the eolo ob
ject of all." General Johnseu.Beauregard
Hardee, Uragg. Walker, Smith, Magrudcr,
Huckner, and other rebel Generals still in
toe uo.u w.in prcuy large armies, win no
doubt see the surrender of Uo in tho samo
