McIntosh shall be sent to Charlestown at once; makes conditions for the exchange or release on parole of Dr. Hailing, Ensign McPherson, Capt. Knowles, Major Lowe, Capts. Osborne and Harrison; sailors may be exchanged only for sailors; the soldier left with Capt. Campbell shall be sent with the first flag.
