, on the rolls, 120,000 men. All is lost! No head
can be made by any other general or army--if indeed any other army
remains. If Mr. Davis had been present, he never would have consented to
it; and I doubt if he will ever forgive Gen. Lee.

APRIL 11TH.--Cloudy and misty. It is reported that Gen. Johnston has
surrendered his army in North Carolina, following the example of Gen.
Lee. But no salutes have been fired in honor of the event. The President
(Davis) is supposed to be flying toward the Mississippi River, but this
is merely conjectural. Undoubtedly the war is at an end, and the
Confederate States Government will be immediately extinct--its members
fugitives. From the tone of leading Northern papers, we have reason to
believe President Lincoln will call Congress together, and proclaim an
amnesty, etc.

Judge Campbell said to Mr. Hart (clerk in the Confederate States War
Department) yesterday that there would be no arrests, and no oath would
be required. Yet ex-Captain Warner was arrested yesterday, charged with
ill treating Federal prisoners, with registering a false name, and as a
dangerous character. I know the contrary of all this; for he has been
persecuted by the Confederate States authorities for a year, and forced
to resign his commission.

My application to Gen. Shepley for permission to remove my family to the
Eastern Shore, where they have relatives and friends, and may find
subsistence, still hangs fire. Every day I am told to call the _next_
day, as it has not been acted upon.

APRIL 12TH.--Warm and cloudy. Gen. Weitzel publishes an order to-day,
requiring all ministers who have prayed for the President of the
Confederate States to pray hereafter for the President of the United
States. He will not allow them to omit the prayer.

In answer to my application for permission to take my family to the
Eastern Shore of Virginia, where among their relations and friends
shelter and food may be had, Brevet Brig.-Gen. Ludlow indorsed:
"Disallowed--as none but loyal people, who have taken the oath, are
permitted to reside on the Eastern Shore of Virginia." This paper I left
at Judge Campbell's residence (he was out) for his inspection, being
contrary in spirit to the terms he is represented to have said would be
imposed on us.

At 1-1/2 P.M. Another 100 guns were fired in Capitol Square, in honor, I
suppose, of the surrender of JOHNSTON'S army. I must go and see.

Captain Warner is still in prison, and no on
