DEAR SlV-l have iuH leen the Cent
ntl ii ;ht an inf. il which, writer very
I natural attributes the conduct Of cur Is
l35Glan Pea.f m1krr5 70 jcaloufy Of the addi-
rionally fame 70 be acquired BY our gallant
Eaton, If he were fuffer-d 70 20 on. Bur
the writer was indeed mGnformed reipec-
ting the part which commodore Barron took
~ this hairy buhnels The .tiame will reit
~tSntirtrT on Lear, who, from the moment
Of Eaton's arrival, conceived jealouiy and
formed a plan 10 defend his hopes TO rein
tate Hamet, at TriPoly and then, with the
aid Of hi5 troops, 70 bring frit Tunis, and
Alficrs 10 fuch terms as might be di6tated
by 1Hs PRESIDENT Of the United States
BTl the officers Join in blaming Lear, as
the prime mover of the mitchell; for II
Lear had confented, Eaton would have head
"a the 100 marines, and with 10 600 dol
lars, and the cooperation Of the fmall yci
flls at the different fortified ports along gthe
coat, on the march 70 TriPoly would
have fucceeded But this fmall afiltance
(aad it qUay az be a&ea) was THANKFULLY
Withheld under what pretext have yet
70 learn. But the caule will be ftated by
Eaton himlef, lhoud he ever arrive fafe.
"The facts Itranlmit are obtained from
our officers themielves; and they are com
municared from the beA motives -inqui.y
and ivitiue. After the battle Of Derne ma
nv deie.ters came in; bur more, after A
Gecond battle, in which the reigning Ba-
thaw's .Mameluke guards were totally de-
fcateG, bv EatOn's forces The news Of
thefe defeats excited a movement toward IN
furc6tion ID 1riPoly and the afrightcd
Bafhaw, having learnt from the Danilh Con-
ful, the aloufy which Lear had of Eaton,
Gent to infoTm Lear, that " he ihouid make
no more proportions but to the braUc Gen
eral Eaton, who, he doubted not, would be
rssre geaeyeu5 from a character he faid he
had Of him" On this Mr. Lear--from
lealoufy, as fome-of my infornantS fay,
and, as others to fecure the few Pre(ents
which are always made On fuch occaGons,
infead Of waiting further, offered the Sixty
Tb5ajGnd dollars ranfcm. AT which the
Bafhaw pounced with the raPidjty Of an
hungry hawk.
Il am ahured, Oar ExecaffUs Is ia ps1cE
Gss ef al tbsNs fats, and many more but
the part Mr.. Lear is luipe6ted of having
acted in procuring the original of certain
letters, and the copies Of the anfwer Of
Gen Wilmington, on the iubjc6t Of the
famous Aazzei letter, sc. will probably
fcreen him, at the J6n r. Of inquiry.
"The officers Prelent declare, they ne
yer were ia danger from The mere Jrecvln-
ten threats Of the Balhaw aud thar he
had even aked, if he could be permitted to
fy on board the American fqadron, if life
ihould De endangered BY the pending revo-
luton lin favor of his brotherl Of his own
guards IN TriPoly Nothing can be more
true, than THAT til, vile ufurper was ready
10 fubnit 70 a1y feymJ 705ateyer. The only
palliative which can hear, for the conduit
Of Lear, is that enc Of the Off GERS told
him he was frighteRed at the mock threats
Of the Bafhaw AID that this officer will
defend Lear But DR.. Cowdry, who was
permitted to act as phyician TO the B4Glaw
