LEV.sON Was for many years a well known character on the turf ; he died oil the Ist of February in an oh :cure lodging in the rules of the King's Bench. 'Those who hove only heard of the irregularities of the latter days of the late Major, might suppose that silence would be the best tribute that could be paid to his memory. This consideration, however, would dekat the principal end of biography—in struchion. Patrick Let-son, the subje& of this sketch, was born at Nenagh, in the county of Tip perary, in the year 1754. It cannot be said, that tcutune smiled deceitful on his birth, for the wealth of the flintily consisted only it a few cows and hones, and a f..rm, on which three geaeretione had subsided avid! peace and competence. Patrick's father had received an education beycnid that of an , bendman, who was obliged to till the ground with hie own hands; but as his sober sashes never strayed beyond the bounds of his own farm, he was at first determined that his son should tread in his own steps, and that he should not be Br oiled by an education beyond his humble views. iatrick, how ever, was scent distinguished by a quickness of perceptimt, and a promptitude tel express'ee, be yond his years; and in order that these qualities might be improved to a certain extent, he was sent to learn the Latin tongue under the instruction of a relation, who looked upon all science and Jinman excellence to he treasur:d up in that language, with which he was very well Acquainted, fiir he had mile it his study from his boyish days up to his gland thinaderic. Our young pupil made so ra pid a progress in his grammar, that his preceptor and father began to conceive the highest hopes of his talents; and as they wereeboth very pious, men, they thought such a star should shine only in the hemisphere of the church, to use the pedagogical expression. Patrick, it seems, was not so deeply enamoured with abstinence and prayer for he was already put upon this regimen; he thought that youth might indulge without criminality, in some • of those amusements which are peculiar to that season ; such as dewing, wrestling, riding, Ste. in each of which he eiccelled, nature having favoured him with a fine person, and a healthy constitution He had now nearly accompanied the prince of Roman historians through all his battles, sieges, &c. when a circumstance happened which in 4 a stop to his.chissicalcareer:—a recruiting party came to Nenagh, the 4 4 ear-piercing fife, and the spirit stirring drum" were not lost in such a buoyant mind, and Patrick protested that he would rather carry a musket as a private, than rule a score of parishes Keith the nod of a mitre. His grand uncle, a Catholic priest, was consulted on the occasion. The 'r ood old man, after some consideration, gave it as his opinion, that his nephew was destined by nature to wear a red coat instead of a black one ; and that examples were not wanting in his own family of those' that had 'risen to unenvied honors in the tented field. Patrick's views '.were liberally seconded by a Scottish nobleman. At the age of seventeen, he. came to London, as ignorant of the world as ii he had just dropeed into it. As he ' had spent, or rather waned, his time, (to use his own phrase) in the study of words, he- began to study things; for this purpose he was sene to Mr. Alexander s academy at Hempstead, where in a very short time he laid in a tolerable stock of ma thematical knowledge. He was now transplanted, through the munificence of his noble patron, to the celebrated academy of Angers, in France; where he bed the double advantage of .finiehing his military studies, and at the same time of learn ing the French language, which he spoke, ever after, with fluency. Whilst at this seminary he fought a duel with Sir W. M—; the courage • exerted by these two gentlemen on that occasion, has been always spoken of to the honour of both. He was scion after appointed a lieutenant in a to e indent of foot, - in which he conducted himself with the propriety of a man .who considers the words soldier and gentleman as synarynioni terms. The only act of indiscretion that ran be laid to his charge, if it can be called by that names will find a ready apology in the impetuosity 4 youthful blood, and the affection he bore to every man in the regiment, which was reciprocal. The Seta. jeant, a sober steady man, was wantonly attack ed By a blacksmith, who was the terror of the town. The Serjettnt defended himself as long as he was able with great spirit, but was obliged, after a herd contest, to yield to his athletic anta gonist. This intelligence reached Mr. Leeson's .. ears the next morning; without delay he set out in pursuit of the Thiene whom he found boasting of the triumph he ha d gained over the lobiter, as h e. called the serjeant. 'elm very expression kindled Lesson's intlignatoin into such a flame, that i.e aimed a blow at the fellow's temple, which I.e warded off, and returned-With such furceethat Lee ' son lay for some tiiinutes extended on the Mound. Leeson, however. renewed the. attaell; viehiry, for a considerable time, seemed to declare on the side of his antagonist ; but as soon as the scale turned in favour of the Lieatcoaut, lie followed 'one hlow after the other with such rapidity and success, that , the son of Vulcanonnk at last, and yielded up the palm, with a copious effusion of blood, the loss of seven or eight teeth., and oyes beat to a idly. In order to complied the triumph, Leeson placed him iu a wheel-barrow, and in this situation he was wheeled through all the town amidst the acclama tions of the populace. Soon after this, Mr. Leeson exchanged his lieutenancy for a cornetcy of dra goons. It may seem a little extraordinary, that a man who had .elcapeti those snares that arc strewed in the paths -of youth, should fall into them at a time when prudence begins to .assume her intineuee over the heart. The gaming-table now presentod itself in all its sedative charms. He could not ros sist them ; and an almost nainterrupted series of success led him. to Newmarket, where his evil ge nius (in the name of good luck) converted him in a short time into a professed gambler. At one time he had a compleet stud at Newmarket ; and his famous horse Buffer carried off all the capital plates fur three years and upwards. As Leeson was &man of acute discernment, he was soon initiated into all the mysteries of the turf. He was known to all the black-legs, and consulted by them un every ethical occasion. Having raised an indch pendent regiment, he was promoted to . a Majority,: He continued for some time to maintain the dignity of his owl, and even expressed a wish to resume • 0 that cotduct Which Ima endeared him for many ' years to the good and the brave; but the temptv tions which gambling held out Wer e too strong,to• be resisted, and a train of ill luck preyed upon hi spirits, soared his temper, and drove him to that last resource of an enfeebled mind—the brandy bottle. As he could not slii!ie in his wonted splen• dour, he sought the most obscure public-houses in , the purlieus of St. Giles's, where he used to pass whole nights in the company of his countrymen of the lowest, but industrious class, charmed with their songs and native humour. it is needless to point out the result of such a habit of life—Major Lee son, that was once the soul of whim and gaiety, sunk into a state of stupor and irritability. On some occasions, it is true, he emerged from this state ; but it was the emergence of a meteof that vanishes as it expands, and only left those that witnessed it to lament the fall of a man that once promised to be an ornament to a profession that was d....ar to him in :.is last moments. Having contrated a number of debts, he was constantly pursued by the terriers of the law, and alternately imprisoned by • his own fears, or confined 'in the King's Bench. About three years sine- he married a Miss Mullett, who shared all his it....,etions, and discharged all the duties of an affectionate wife. When sober, his manners were gentle and conciliating ; and his conversation on many occasions evinced considerable mental vigour. He was generous and steady in his friend ships, but the dupe of flattery, having experienced all those vicissitudes attendant on a life of dissipation. He was sensible of the immediate approach of his , ,dissolution, and talked of death its a friend that would relieve him of a load that was almost insup portable. He expired in the midst of a conveisa tion with a few friends, and waved a gentle adieu his hands, when lie ftmsnd that his tongue could not perform that office.—Obi:eary Monthly Mug. gUNIUS'S LETTERS. The impenetrable mystery that hangs over the Author of the celebrated Letters of Jt.4les is so favourable to the propagation of reports, that we may erped to he.rr that they have been ascribed, in succession, to every distinguished chara o der who tlonrished dnring the period of their publication. '1 he following article, however, which appeared in i late number of 16e Wirnington (Delaware) Mirror., is founded upon a stronger assertion than has ever before been made upon the subjed, for it proceeds upon a supposed acknowledgment of Junius him self! Of Me. Rodney, or of -the agree of credit that may reasonably be attached to his declaration, we know nothing ; but the subjea is so curious that we think our readers will not be averse from having their attention once more drawn to it. "" No pa-deal writings ever made more noise in the world, or were more celelgrated, than the letters signed Junius, and publithel in London now more than thirty years ago. And as the author conveyed these letters to the press in such a secret mnnner, as to conceal himself entirely from the knowledge of thepublic, and every other person, the public cu riosity has been excited from time to time to this— to know who he was. Frequent and various have been the conjectures respeCting him ; but all have accorded in:attrilniting those Letters to one person or another of the most eminent abilities. This, without doubt, does the author great honour. I have observed in some of your late papers, that they were attributed to the celebrated Mr. Dunning, by one writer, and to the late Earl of Chatham by another. But to satisfy the curiosity of the world, and to pre clude all future and uncertain •conjeftures, I can assure the public, that our celebrated Major-General Charles Lee, of the American Army, war the real author of lbw Letters. And although he had de :owed that the secret rested solely with himself, and . that he meant to carry into the grave with him, Jet I aiiirrn, and answer to the public, that he revealed it 10 me, .and perhaps to no other teasers is ilie world. .e La the fall of 177..3, nit long after General Lee had aTrieed in America, I had the pleesure of*, pending afternoon in h:s company, when there was no other person present—our esonv.msatlon chi: fly turned on politics, and was mutually free and . open—among other things the letters of Junius ,wcite mentioned, and General Lee asked me, who was eonjeatued to be the author of those letters ? I replied, our conjectures here generally followed those sterted in England ; but for myself, I con- ' eluded hum the spirit, style, patriotism, and ' political infinmation which they displayed, that LerclChathrtin wa, the author ; and yet that. there were some sen timents in them that indiokied .his not being the anthor.—General Lee immediately replied, with .; considerable animation, affirming, that to his certain knowledge, Lord Chatham WAS rot the author; neither did he know who the author was, any Dune. than I did—that there was not a man iu .the world, no not even Woodfall, the publisher, that knew' the author was ; that the secret rested solely arettli • himself, and for ewer would remain with him. Feelieg in some degree surprised at this in -expected declaration, after pausing a little, Ire;-; plied, No, General Lee, if you certainly know. what you have affirmed, it can no longer remain solely with him ; for certainly no one could know . what.vou have affirmed but the Author himselfl'— Recotiecting himself, lie replied, • I have unguard edly committed myself, and it would be but folly to deny to you that lam the Autbcr ; but I must request that yon will not reveal it during my life ; for it never was, nor never will be, revealed by me to :any ocher: lie then proceeded to mention sereral cir . otteetances to' verify his being the Author, and among them, his going over to the continent, and absecting himself from England. most of the time in which those Letters wertefirut published in Lon , don,. &c, Occ. r This lie thought necessary, lest by some .. acci l dem tlse Author should become !mown, or at West suepected, which Might have caused his he : been •in the power of the Court of 14414(tthi . . 66 .

Doubtless it is not France which can he thought desirous of renewing tlse war, since she has so much need of peace, to restora her nianufac tures, her colonies, her marine, to their ancient spier).- dour; comintm sense only is necessary to see ; but tie hisser whu fear the light refuie to soe it. at Whatever there may be in this war of words..
