TELL OF ARNoLD'S TREASON
Entries in Orderly Book Kept at
Washington's Headquarters Make
Interesting Reading.

An orderly book from the headquar
ters of George Washington, kept be
tween the dates of September 26 and
November /, 1880, and containing the
first official entries of the treason OF
Benedict Arnold, in addition to the rec
ords of the trial of Major Andre as
British spy, has recently been OBJ
tained by the New Hampshire His
torfcal society.
The book, which was kept by Col
Alexander Scammell, adjutant general
of Washingtons army, after announc
ing the discovery of the plot, goes on
to congratulate the soldiers of the
Continental army that this is the firs
case of treason in the American forces,
though many were expected, due to
the partisan nature of the struggle,
The providential discovery of the
crime also is argued as proof that the
Liberties of America are the objects
of Divine protection"
Speaking of the findings of the board
of officers that tried Andre, the jour,
nal relates that the major was appre.
hended while on his way to New York
in disguised habit, and while in the
possession of papers containing intel
ligence for the enemy. The findings
close with the recommendation to Gen
eral Washington that Major Andre be
executed as a spy in accordance witt
the usages of waI. A later entry car
ries Washington's orders for the execu
tion as follows:
1.-THE commander in chief directs th'
execution of the above sentence in tn
usual way this afternoon at o'clock.
