A New end important Contribution to Oar Revolutionary History, TBS BBIT1BH COMMANDEU’b ACCOUNT OF HIS NEGOTIATIONS YflTB. THB TBAITOB— I11B AUBAIQNMENT OF WASHING TON FOB HANOINO ANDBE. Tho following aocount of- the plot of Arnold to .surrender his command and several important forts to the British, and of the hanging of Andre, written by Sir Henry Clinton, the British Comman der, with whom Arnold waB negotiating, has recently been published, for tho first time: “About eighteen months before the present period, Mr. Arnold (a Major Gen eral in the American service) had found moans to intimate to me, that having found cause to be dissatisfied with many late proceedings of tho American Con gress, particularly their alliance with France, he was desirous of quitting them And joining the cause of Groat Britain, could he be certain of personal security, and indemnification for whatever loss of property be might thereby snstain. An overture of that sort coming from an offl- oor of Mr. Arnold’s ability and fame, oould not but attract my attention; and as I thought it possible that like another General Monk, he might have repeat*! of the part he had taken, and wished to make atonement for the injuries he had done his country by rendering her signal aud adequate benefit, I was, of course, liberal in making him such offers and promises as I judged most likely to encourage him in his present temper. A correspondence was after this opened under feigned names, in the course of which he, from time to time, transmitted to me most material intelli gence ; and with a view (as I supposed) of rendering ns still more essential ser vice, he obtained in July, 1780, tho com mand of all the enemy's forts in the Highlands, theu garrisoned by about 4,000 men. The local importance of the post has already been very fully de scribed. It is therefore scarcely necessa ry observe how that tho obtaining pos session of them at tho present critical pe riod would have been a most desirable circumstance; and that the advantages to be drawn from Mr. Arnold’s having the command of them, struck mo with full force the instant 1 heard of his ap pointment. But tho arrival of the French armament, the consequent expe dition to Rhode Island, and tho weakness of my own foroe, together with the then daily iuorease of Mr. Washington’s, obliged me to wait for some more favor able opportunity before I attempted to put that gentleman’s sincerity to the proof. “In the meantime, wishing to reduce to an absolute certainty whether the person I had ro long corresponded with was aotually Maj. Gen. Arnold, com manding at West Point, I acceded to a proposal he made me to permit some offioer in my confidence to have a per sonal conference with him, where every thing might be more explicitly settled than it was possible to do by letter, and as he inquired that my Adjutant- General, Maj. Andro (who bad chiefly conducted the correspondence with him under the signature of John An- de son), should meet him for this pur pose on neutral ground, I was induced to consent to his doing so from my great confidence in that officer’s pru dence and address. Some attempts to wards a meeting had boon accordingly made before Sir George Rodney’s ar rival. But though the plans bad been well laid, they were constantly frustrated »>y some untoward accident or other, one of whioh bad very nearly cost Mr. Arnold bis life. These disappoint ments made him of course cautions; and as I now became anxious to forward the execution of my project while I could under so good a mask ns tho expedition for the Chesapeake, whioh enabled me to make every requisite preparation without being suspeoted, I consented to another proposal from General Arnold for Major Andre to go to him by water from Dobb’s ferry, in-a boat which he would himself send for him under a flag of truoe. For I could have no reason to suspect that any bad consequence oould possibly result to Major Audre from Buoh a mode, as I had given it in charge to him, not change his drear or name on any account, or pos sess himself of writing by which the nature of his embassy might be traced, And I understood that after his busi- ness was finished he was to be Bent back in the same way. But unhappily none of these precautions were observed; on the contrary, General Arnold, for reasons which he judged important or mrhaps (which is the most probable) osing at the moment his presence of mind, thought proper to drop tbo design of sending Major Andre back by water, and prevailed upon him (or rather com pelled him, as would appear by that unfortunate officer’s letter to me,) to part with his uniform, and under a bor rowed disguise to take a circuitous route to New York through the posts of the enemy under the sanction of bis passport. Tho consequence was (as might be expected) that he was stopped at Tarrytown and searched, and certain papers being found about him concealed, he was (notwith standing his passport) carried prisoner before Mr. Washington, to whom he oandidly acknowledged his name and quality. Measures were of course imme diately taken upon this to seize Gen. Arnold; but that officer, being fortunate enough to receive timely notice of Major Andre’s fate, effected his escape to a King’s sloop lying off Tailor's point, and came tho next day to New York. “I was exceedingly shocked by this vory unexpected accident, which not only ruined a most important project, whioh lmd all the appearance of being in a hap py train of success, but iuvolved.in dan ger aud distress a confidential friend for whom I had (very deservedly) the warm est esteem. Not immediately knowing however, tho full extent of the misfortune, I did not then imagine tho enemy could have any motive for pushing matters to ex tremity, as tho bare detention of so valuabio an officer’s person might have given him a great power and advantage over me; and J was accordingly in hopes that an official demand from me for his immediate release, ns having been under the sanction of a flag of truce when he landed within his posts, might shorten his captivity or at least stop his proceeding with rigor against him. But the cruel and un fortunate oatastropho convinced me that I was much mistaken in my opinion of both his policy and humanity. For de livering himself up (as it should seem) to tho ranoour excited by the near accom plishment of a plan that might have ef fectually restored the King’s authority, and tumbled him from his present exalt ed situation, be burnt with a desire of w reaking his vengaanerf on the principal actors in it, and consequently regardless of tho acknowledged worth and abilities of the amiable young man who had thus fallen iuto his hands, and in opposition of every principal of polioy and call of humanity, ho, without remorse, put him to a most ignominious death, and this, at a moment whon one of his Generals was by his own Appointment in actual confer ence with oommissiouerB whom I had sent to treat with him for Major Andre’s reloase. “The manner in whioh Major Andre was drawn to the enemy’s shore (mani festly at the instance ana under the sanc tion of the General offloer who had tho command of the district), and his being avowedly compelled by that officer to change his dress and name, and retnrn under his passports by land, were circum stances which, as they muoh lessen the imputed criminality of bis offense, ought at least to have softened the severity of the council of war’s opinion respecting it, notwithstanding his imprudence of hav ing possessed himself of the papers which they found on him; whioh, though they led to a discovery of the nature of the business that drew him to a conference with Gen. Arnold, were not wanted (as they must have known) for my information. For they wore not ignorant that I had, myself, been over every part of the ground on whioh the forts stood, and had, of course, made myself perfeotly Ac quainted with everything necessary for facilitating an attack of thorn. Mr. Washington ought also to have remem bered that I had never, in one instance, punished the disaffected Colonists (with in my power) with death, but on the con trary had in several shown the most hu mane attention to his intercession even in favor of avowed spies. His aeting therefore in so ornel a manner in oppo sition to my earnest solicitations could net but excite in me the greatest sur prise ; especially as no advantages what ever could be possibly expected to his cause by putting the object of them to death. Nor could he be insensible (had he the smallest spark of honor in his own heart) that the example (though ever so terrible and ignominious) would never deter a British officer from treading in the same steps, whenever the service of his country would require his exposing himself to tho like danger in such a war. But the subject affects me too deeply to proceed—nor can my heart cease to bleed whenever I reflect on tho very unworthy fate of this most amiable and valuable young man, who was adorned with the rarest endowments of ednoation and na ture, and (had ho lived) could not but have attained to the highest honors of his profession.” ALABAMA.
