To his recruiting officers to this effect:

the only foundation for any order OF the American
army in relation to "FoREIdsERs," with when
Gen. Scott HAD NOTHING TO DO; but which, on the
contrary was MADE BY THE DEMOCRATIC
ADMINISTRATION.
If such falsehoods are to be uttered IN relation

LORD MAHON,s RETRACTIoN.

The last number of s'To- Day. u literary jour
nal published at Boston, contains the following ac-
count of Lord Mahon's retraction of his charge
against Mr.. Sparks for the manner in which he has
edited Washington's writings: :.
"The appearance in England ofBartlcts pamph-
let containing Mr.. Sparks's three letters to the
editor Of the New York Evening Post, Reply
to the Structures of Lord Mahon and others on the
mode of Editing the Writings of Washington has
called nth there Letter to jared Sparks, Esq,
being rejoinder to his Reply by Lord Mahon, a
copy of which we have before us. In this rejon-
der Lord Mahon explicitly withdraws the accusa-
sation against Mr.. Sparks of having made unauhor-
lied additions to the text of Washington's lett rs,
and, expressing his sorrow for having preferred it,
confesses that his belief in its truth affected the
general tone adopted towards Mr. Sparks in his
history" ..-.t4i
The following are Lord Mahon's words to Mr..
Sparks:
al am now most willing to withdraw my charge
against you of having made unauthorized adGi-
lions. l am sorrythat should have made it. will
even go further, and express my regret, that, be-
lievng as did that charge TO be well founded and
fully proved | adopted n tone towards you in one
or two passages of my history different from that
which should have used had / thought you who'll
ly free from such al imputation. For. having now,
so explicitly :ccaled Tint charge, need surely not
scruplc to say that, as it seems to me, the making
unauthorized additions without notice TO the orig
nal papers of great man is among the worst and
most wilful errors that an editor can possibly
commit, not all short, in fact, OF litersry for
gerry" -. .-t.t .t.L

punishment of any kind; of all others, he was the
most deserving ofdeath, and the united voice of the
American army called for his execution, though all
the rest should be pardoned But the laws of the
land. whose colors he had basely deserted, threw
around him the ngis ofits protection; and no argu-
ment threat or entreaty could induce Gen. Scott
