We take pleasure in inserting the following, as we esteem it a privilege to do anything in our power to promote the noble object contemplated:
We may add that the original photograph from which this lithograph is made, was taken in Lexington by Miley, and is one of rare excellence. The shading of his hat somewhat obscures General Lee's features, but his form and manner of sitting his horse are perfect. The likeness of “Traveler” could scarcely be improved, and many veterans of the Army of Northern Virginia will give it a delighted recognition. We remember hearing General Lee say the day after the photograph was taken, “I do not care for a likeness of myself, but I am very much gratified to have so good a one of Traveler.” The lithograph makes a really beautiful picture, which we hope will adorn a very large number of our Southern schools and homes.
