After these communications, and under the
circumstances in which l was placed, I ask you.
my fellow citizens, whether l had any reason to
believe il to be the expectation of the government
that l should have obtained the command of the
lakes But in this | was mistaken. 1t really ape
pears, that it was, because the President says, in
the message Il have quoted, "Our expectation OF
gaining the command of the lakes by the Invasion
OF Canada from Detroit having been disappointed,
measures were Instantly taken to provide on them
a naval force superior to that of the enemy"
The other object was, "to maintain co-operat-
ing relations with such forces az might be most
conveniently employed against other parts"
L opened a road of two hundred miles through 4
savage wilderness, invaded the enemy's country,
remained a month in the possession oil IL, waiting
for cooperating relations, until was informed l
should receive none-and until general Dearborn,
instead Of cooperating, agreed TO a cessation OF
hostilities, which afforded the enemy an oppor-
tunity of concentrating his whole force against
my little army.
BY the documents of the government, it thus
appears that these were the objects OF my expedi-
tion-and because | disappointed the expectations
of the administrator, in not obtaining the COM
mand OF the lakes, with the few Ohio militia !
commanded, and did not maintain cooperating
relations with other forces, when there were none
to cooperate with me, I have been condemned.
lido expect, my fellow citizens. when you be-
come acquainted with the true history of my cases
you win reverse the unjust sentence which has
been pronounced against ne. ! am now perfectly
supported by a consciousness Of having done my
duty in the most faithful manner. and my only de-
sire is, to convince you and postefity OF the purity
Of nv motives, and the correctness of my conduct.
Under this support, l am tranquil and happy
Had l pursued any other course, should want
the consciousness which l now feel, and in sin.

FROM H CONNECTICUT JOURNAL.
GENERAL HULL'S ADDRESS,
10 the People Of the
UNITED. STATES.

This address is prefxed to bis defence before the
court martial, that tried him at Albany, which
is now published-We can care little for the
fate of a man who has been an ardent supporter
of, and contributed so much to produce the pre-
sent order of things but as the character Of
his native State has been implicated with that
of the General, by some of the Southern de-
magogues, who have insuitingly reminded us
that "the traitors arnold and Hull, were ma
;ives of the tory state of Connecticut, " if the
General expects more justice from the judg-
mcnt of his fellow citizens, than the decision
of a court martial, he is fully entitled to the
opportunity of obtaining it.
Ills former friends have been his accusers, and
have caused him to drink deeply of the cup
Of infamy. He has, with the spirit of a
man, conscious of his own rectitude, "returned
the poisoned chalice to their own lips" Ev-
e.y man who would have a correct view of his
unfortunate and disastrous campaign, should
read his defence.
