GENERAI. HORATIO GATES.
While America, in tie pofTtfllon of
FieeJom, Peace, and u: [hack ed Indue*
I try, ei : .ys the glorious achievements of
1 tier Heroes, they are defeending fucce3-
! lively to the grave. Within tKfefew
days, another of htr üblelt commanders
■ and iiK.lt faithful citizens, General
Gates, has followed Montgomery,
Greene, and Washington. The
inevitable certainty of this doom, dues
1 not the left awaken our regret ; but
when exalted worth b thus retiring for
j ever from our view, let public fc-rvic.r
and public happiness be ihejuft mea.
I fures of our gratitude. General Gates,
; more fortunate than many of his lilns
| trious colleagues, lived to fee the cause
of Liberty and Aratricat Independence
not only it. .. ipnaut but cor.foiidatrd ;
and with this fives*eft rccompcnfe of h.s
j toils and dangers, had the highcß prosr

(when dying, it was Ins arm opinion
that he could form no berter with lor

i which he lift it, might be perpetual.

that military txcchcnce, which waste,

was afterwards in the 54th regiment
with general Ifraddoak, and was Ihot
through the body at the defeat of that
unfortunate officer. After the peace
J between Great Britain and France he
