What was the main idea in lees surrender to grant?

Lee had no choice but to surrender to Grant, as he had run out of manpower, and his men were barefoot and starving. Those two very different men could both feel that it was a historic moment, and a time for noble conduct. Lee faced up to his position manfully, and asked for terms. Grant told him that if his men handed in their weapons and took the oath of allegiance to the United States, they would be allowed to go home in peace, and there would no hangings, jailings or persecution.

Why do you think general grant allowed total war to be used to defeat lee but then offered to feed lees men after there surrender?

Grant was not acting out of personal cruelty when he applied such harsh measures in the field. He knew that attrition was the only way. After the surrender, he could afford to be generous, and he certainly was. No hangings or jailings, and a good meal for every Confederate soldier, probably their first in months.
