crisis-such was the department of our beloved
Washington. The friends Of General Jackson are
pleased to call him the second Washington. ask
the readers of the Gazette to peruse carefully the
trials Of the six Mtamen. and the death warrant

were sentenced to be dismissed, six unfo rtunate

men sentenced to have one half their heads shaved
and to be drummed out Of camp: of these. ten were
recommended to the mercy Of the General, and re-

ed to be carried into execution.
