Washington Correspondence N. 7. Herald. 17th.1
L rercrt has beta cn7rent here tor some
Days part that an English srcnet Of wealth,
1,5 name sSir john Murray" bad joined the
United States Army. The Statement ID eatire
y erroneous. The gentleman alluded to Is no
otler tAap Mr. John Coppinger, Of New York,
End member Of your bar. His history is
briefly this: Captain Coppioger, Of the Brit
jEh Army, was his luther, but when q boy he
came to this couatry vita hls trotaer. When
The young gentleman grew up his mother en-
deaTored to get the son into the British ser
vice, bur failed. He then read law in the city
Of New York, AID was in due course admitted
to practice. Afr. CoppInger has never seen
cry military service IN this OF any country but
ss Arjutant Ct the N1n.h regiment New York
Militia, and he has no other fortune than what
he nsy have derived from his earnings st the
bar. As to his title 10 81 English baronetcy,
the favts sre these: His father, the Captain
Corpipger aforesaid, laid claim to some title
OF The sort, and i. nay be be had souae good
grounds for doing go; but he could never
mske thst appear before the tribunal which
decitaF or The EaIi..ity Of such cla: al mean
the English House OF Lords. Consequently
Captain Coppinger died, I believe gently.
unbaronetted, and therefore his aon could
not have Inherited any such title from him.
