We received it yesterday cnilosed in a letter from one of inir-vcry oldest Revolutionary Heroes, who still lingers on this side of the grave, and who numbers fi)iir score years ami more, with a request to re-insert it. The subject is worthy el" a re-publication ; but if it worn not, we could nut deny our venerable correspondent tlie fa vi i r : "These reflections occurred to ns, in ron.o iicncp of mooting the other day, w ith n per son iiiiiI probably the only surviving one, who took a part in throwing the ten overboard from the l!riti!-li ships in lkstou l.n-hotir undoubt edly oucoflho measures which precipitated the Revolution. His iinme is Joshua Wyeth, ti relative of the celebrated John Wyeth, of Cam bridge, whom every Harvard scholar, ol the times tif the veuerahle Wilhird iiml Tapper so well remembers, lie lives in this city, isturh-i-d of seventy-live years, appears to he in rohust health, and iineoinlnoiily cheerful, iilUionyh it believed Ins circiniit-tii rictus aio stiaiolitened. His simple narrative gave us vivid impression I of the feelings. hicli aetuateil his fellow towns- Inen on the (Kxasioil of bringing tea into Huston harbour. News of' the most interesting char-in-ter transpired everyday. Never was a peri od so full of rumors and reports, which had not yet acquired the horrible and b'oody in'erest to unlit them for the tea table. The patriots saw that the tiiir could not resist the sca-oning nt the fragrant beverage, with the discussion of these themes of universal interest, and it was determined that they thoiild not be led into Fiich irresistable temptation, nnd that it should be removed by throwing the tea overboard. It wis proposed that young men, not much known in town and not liable to be easily recognized, phonld lead the business. Our narrator be lieves that most of the perse lis selected for the occasion were apprentices and journeymen ; not a tew of them, as was the case with hiin n l!, living with the tory masters. lie had but n few bouts warning of what was intended to bo done. Thepait w hieh he took in tl.el.i--i-ness. is related us. follows, nn, I nearly in his own words : 1 j:ioore.i, ns a journeyman i,licl;smi'!i will. W.-tern & Cridely, blaeksmiths by trade, and !

We i i , . , ... ... . . were met together one evening, talking over the tyranny of the Ilrilish Government, such as tin- heavy duties, shutting up of the port of Huston, tin; murdering of .Mr. (irav's family, sending the people to England for trial, und tun.iry other acts of oppiession. Our indig nation w as increased by having heard of the ar rival of the tea ships nt this time. We b'tcci tiiatil'the tea was landed the people could tint w ithstand the temptation, and would certainly buy it. We came to a sudden determination to make sure work of it, by throw ing it ail over board. We first talked of tiring the ships, but we feared the lire would communicate to the town. We then proposed sinking them, but we dropped this project, through fear that we should alarm the town, bi tbri; we could gi t 1 through w ith it. We had observ.-d that Aery j few persons renamed on board the three ships, , en 1 1 1.1 .. , iti.il we Imally concluded that we could take possession of them, and discharge the tea into ', the harlx.ur without danger or opposition. The greate.-t objection U.oiir plan was, that it would take such a great length of lime to carry il tiinnijjli, and render us more lwhlo to detection. We a o rce.l, one and all tli.il we Would goon (it the risk .four lives. We proceeded to con trive the mode of hccompl.shing our business. One of the ships laid nt Hancock's w hari", and the other a few paces out in the stream, with the ir warps made tiist to the sumo wharf. A l.ii;- u;e of Itrilish celdiers was encamped 011 the 1 1 lumen, less thtiii a mile from Oie w harf.

Some of oi.r iiiuubc-r jumped into the bold, nnd passed the clie.il s tu the tackle. As they were hoisted on deck eome knocked them open with axes, and other raised them to the ruil.ng, and discharged their contents overboard. All that were not titedcd for diu- charging the tea from this ship, went on bonrd the others mid w..ried 'llujriXlnto the wharf, wheie the Mine ceremonies were repealed as nt the first hip. While we wqrc unlading, the people collected in great numbers mIkiuI the wharf, to see what was going on. They crowd ed uhotittis so ns to be much in our wuy.
