FROM ANNAr SEWARD'S LETTERS
Written between the years 1784, and 1807, in 6 Vols.
WASHINGTOX : ;
No, dear Matfaine, 1 was not, as you sup
pose, favoured with a letter from General
Washington, expressly; addressed to myself;
bnt, few years after peace was signed be
tween this country and America, an officer
introduced himself, commissioned from Gen.
Washington to call upon me, and to, assure
f i i i r . i. . :
me, irom vue uenerai uinueii uiamu w
comstance of his life had been bo mortifying
as to be censured in the Monody on Andre,
as the pitiless aullior of his ignominious fale;
that he had laboured to save him, that he re

ject, which he haa sent by ins omcer lor my

Washington allowed hi aid-de-camp to re
turn to England after peace was established,
and American independence acknowledged ;
and hecdm missioned him to see me, and
request rny attention to the papers he sent for
my perusal : copies of his letters to A., and
his answers, in his own hand, were amongst
them. Cooqern, esteem, and pity, were a
vowed in thosevof the general, and waim en
treaties that he wonld urge General Clinton
to resign Arnold in exchange for himself, as
me oniy means to avert a sacrince wntcn tne
laws of war demanded. Mr. Andre's' letter
breathed a spirit of gratitude to Gen. Wash
ington Tor the interest he took in his preser
vation, but firmly declined the application to
Gen. Clinton. The other papers wer mm
utes of the court-martial, from which it ap
peared, that Gen. Washington 'had laboured
to avert the sentence . against Andrer and to
soften - the circumstances of disguised dress
and of those fatal ' drawings of 'the enemies
outworks and sittfalionwhich placed hint in
the character of a spy rather than that of a
negotiator. The General' next fruitless "en
deavor was to have.: obtained the grant o.
poor Andre's petition, to die aless disgrace

the Amencau armies, counted but as one of
the court-martial. General Washington did
me the honor to charge his aid-de-camp to as-
snre me, max no circumstance in his Hie had

sacrifice, of Andre's life, and next to that
deplorable: event, the censure passed upon

for which he; loved the author t also to - ex
