This letter, contributed to "The Public Advertiser," and dated March 24, 1768, is a reply to a letter signed "Anti van Teague," the author of which had defended the grant to Sir James Lowther.

"Junius" signs" Anti Stuart in reference to John Stuart, Earl of Bute, whose daughter Sir James Lowther had married. He then attacks the public character of the Duke of Grafton, the Prime Minister, and says he had not meddled with his private character, which he left for the Duke to earth in, whenever he is hard run, "according to the laudable example" of Lord North.- WADE.
