Basically, numbers. Grant outnumbered him two to one, and, his best corps commander, Longstreet, was wounded. Still, he managed to stave off Union victory time and time again, defeating Grant at the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, and Cold Harbor.
You are referring to Lee's surrender at Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia. The Union troops were cheering as Lee left. General Grant stopped them. He was very embarrassed. General Lee was riding off, as heartbroken as a man could be. General Grant told his men that the Southerners "are our countrymen again." This was not actually the end of the Civil War, but it was close enough!

No. Gettysburg was fought on July 1-3, 1863 and he didn't surrender until April 14, 1865. General Lee realized that he could not continue to fight not support his troops while they were in Pennsylvania, so he retreated back to Virginia. General Lee did not resign after the battle. Lee's army escaped and managed to return to Virginia.

President Lincoln advised Ulysses Grant to "hold on with a bull-dog grip, and chew and choke, as much as possible" during the Siege of Petersburg or as it's also known, the Richmond-Petersburg Campaign.The chief goal of what became a brutal and very protracted campaign was to cut off Confederate General Robert E. Lee's supply lines, which Grant's army finally succeeded in doing in March, 1865.The siege lasted approximately nine months and may be viewed as the final, fatal blow to the Confederate army. The war ended soon after, on April 9, 1865 when Lee surrendered to Grant at the Court House in Appomattox, VA.
