In the course of this siege, they lost, in killed and wounded, about three hundred.

The treaty was opened on the eleventh day after the ground was broken by the besiegers, and the capitulation was signed on the thirteenth.

The whole army merited great approbation; but, from the nature of the service, the artillerists and engineers were enabled to distinguish themselves particularly.
Generals du Portail and Knox were each promoted to the rank of Major General; and Colonel Govion, and Captain Rochfontaine, of the corps of engineers, were each advanced a grade by brevet.

In addition to the officers belonging to those departments, Generals Lincoln, De Lafayette, and Steuben, were particularly mentioned by the Commander-in-chief, in his orders issued the day after the capitulation; and terms of peculiar warmth were applied to Governor Nelson, who continued in the field during the whole siege, at the head of the militia of Virginia; and also exerted himself, in a particular manner, to furnish the army with those supplies which the country afforded.

The highest acknowledgments were made to the Count de Rochambeau; and several other French officers were named with distinction.
