Gtn. Junot. —This officer war. !
originally a private in the rinks, j
and owes his present elevation to
a very singular cirrumstancc.—
During a battle on the tontiheiit,
Bonaparte had occasion 10 send
a di«p:uch to one of, his gtoerals,
and having rode up to the compa
ny in which Junot served, he as
ked if any man among them could
write? Junot instantly replied in
the affirmative; He was accor
dingly called out of the ranks to a
drum head, and Bonaparte dicta
ted his dispatch. While Junot
was wiiting, a cannon-ball struck
the ground near him, and covered
him with dust—•“ That will do,”
said the soldier, “ for l wanted
some sand for my letter.” “You
are a brave fellow,” observed Na
poleon, kk what is there I can do
tor you ?” “ Have,” replied Ju- |
not, these worsted epauletis
taken off my shoulders, and re
place them with silver.” It was
accordingly done, the soldier was ,
piomoied, afterwards made go- I
vernur of Paris, and elevated to I
his present tank. Junot is a brake

; To the. Citizens cf Avgujld.
ON Saturday last the Counci
had great debates on the necessity
ot a Patrol every night, to guard
our properly from (ire or robbery,
first it vas on the question to re
commend to the citizen* in general
to incorporate themselves and turn
out by rotation, to this l was in
favor, because I conceived it was
necessary that lx*
done lor the protection our pro-f
perty N* verthelessl insist upon it
ibat if the different companies were
to do the it duty, as it is stated in
the patrol law that then the City
would oc sufficiently guarded.—l
pi opose this, that if our companies
ui this city would only agree to
turn out ten men everv night—
there are Jive companies in the city,
& I am told, consisting in all, fully
300 diet! ; in that case, it would
Gil to the lot ol each man once a
, n, °nth—- 1 o ibis l hepy our good
cu izens in each company will agree.
; Ihe second debate was proposed
by a gentleman in Council, who
lias the honor to be a captain of
militia, 1 hat we should sign q pe
tition to our legislature, praying
them to pass an act similar to one
passed in 1765, for the town of
Savannah, in favor ol the city of
Augusta, in respect to patroT, which
the gentleman conceived, would
then empower all the captains oil
districts to command everv oneliv- I
ingm their district to do patrol du"
' ty. including Volunteer companies.
Although I do not think that the
act. puts it iri the power of the cap
tain 61 a district to command the
; volunteers ot their district, still 1
was against it, because the patrol i
law at present in force, includes all
the indicia and volunteer companies
