Every possible mark' of indulgeitte> and the atmost attention and politeness were- exercised towards him : so that the Mujor himself, deeply im pressed with the liberality nf their behavio,, declared that be flattered himself he had never bekn illiberal, but that if there were any remains of prejudice in hi* mind, his pres ent experience’ must obliterate them. The board did not examine a single witness, but foil ided their, report merely on liis own confes sion. In this, after a recital of a few facts, tliey declared that Major Andre ought to be considered us a spy front the enemy, anti that agree ably to the law of nations, he ought to suffer death. When his sentence was announ ced to him, he remarked, that since it w^as his lot to die, as there was a choice in the mode u Inch would make a material difference to his feelings, he would bii* iMappy if it were possible to bo hitlulgfed with a professiooal dolth. He made *t«cond application liy letter, in concise but persuasive terms’: it was thought, however, that tHlrBi- diligence, being incompatible with „Oie customs of war, could' not t^e 'granted : and it was 'therefore de termined in both cases, to ev»de an answer, to spare hinrtbe sensations which a certain knowedge of the destined mode would inBlct. When h« was led'out to the place !of execution, he bowed familiarly to all those with whom he had been .acquainted duringjiis confinement; a smile of complacency expressed the serene fortitude of his mind ) upon steingMbQ preparations at the fatal «pet, he asked, with aomc emotion, “ must I die in this man ner I'’ He was told it was unavoid able; <1 am reconciles to my fate,’ said he, 1 but not to the mode :* soon after, however, recollecting himself head^ed, “ it will be but a momentary: pang,\ and springing 'upon tlM cart, performed iHe'last oAces to Miqself, with a compo sure which excited the admiration, and melted the hearts of all the spectators. Being told the fatal moment was at hand, and asked if le h«4 aay 3 hlnjft«%ay, lie answer ed, « nothing but-, to-request that you wi|l witness to the world that 1 die like a brave man.” He died universally esteemed and regretted.

The permission ol the governor and of the proprie tors of the soil lias been asked and obtained, to remtfve tl ?8 bones. As to the British boats of a foreign ship of war to escort the rfleam boat, such a thing ne/er entered the head of any iwan but Rtr. Ver- planck. The idea that it will bo ingratitude in UY towards 1 th'e Sum- vor of the three soldiers who cap tured Andre to let hipbones go out of the country, is both novel and ingenius; Coming, as it does, frotn one who three years ago wttuld have been proud to be a pall-beai'er in the procession, and vrho-three years helice, would probably be prodH of the some offite, it bedomes'duUbly rediculous and affected. , Take the following extracts from Gordon’s History of the American war, page 131. In g'vtfy* the ac count of Maj. Andre's ((eaiii he says “ He died universally esteemed and regretted. The sympathy lie bad excited in the Amertckn army was perhaps unexampled,' under any similar circumstances.\ Gtneral Washington thus expressed him self in a private letter (Oct. 13}: *• Andre has met his'fate, end wim that fortitude; which was tA be ex pected from an accomplished man anJ a gallant ofiieerY' After such a jnst and- gendlxMM acknowledgment of liis personil merits, fronr those whom fortune made his enemies in war, we regrit that it <rtbuld be-deemed expedient, in any quarter, to »4ck now to u- waken KeHhgs of aebrinionlous re- semmenl towards the memory of this <* accomplished man and gallant officer.**'.
