a,
Sir.-I had the honor TO receive your Tx
cellency's letter concerning Lady AckIaDd.
The respect due to her lady>hlp's rank, the
tenderness due to her person and sex. were
alone sufficient recommendations TO entltle
her TO my protection. Considering my pre-
ceding conduct with respect TO those oil
your army whom the fortune OF war has
placed in my hands, am surprised your
Excellency should think that | could
consider the greatest attention to Lady
Ackland in the light of an obhga-
ton. The cruelties which mar the
retreat OF your army, burning the gentle
men and farmers houses as they passed
along, Is almost without precedent among
civilized nations. They should not endeavor
TO ruin those they could not conquer. This
conduct betrays more the yindIctiye malice
OF monk than the generosity OF soldier.
Your friend, Sir Francis -, by the in
formation OF DR.. Potts, the Encouragement
OF my hospital, languishes under very
dangerous wound. Every sort OF tender.
ness and attention is paid to him, as well as
all the wounded who have fallen in my
hands in my hospitals whom your necessi-
ties compel to leave to my mercy.
At the solicitations of Major Williams
am prevailed upon TO offer bin and Major
Eiborn in exchange for Colonel Ethan AL
len. Your Excellency's objection 10 my
last proposal for the exchange Of Colonel
Ethan Allen | must consider as triflng, as
l cannot but suppose that the generals Of
the royal armies as acting in equal concert
with the generals OF the armies OF the
United States. The bearer delivers a nun.
Der OF letters from The officers OF your army
taken prisoners in the action of the 10th
instant. / am your Excellency's humble
servant. H0RATI0 GATES.
