_A remarkable instance of premonition of impending death._

Your readers may rely on the authenticity of what follows, as I

assure them I copied it myself from the original letter in the well

known hand writing of John Ross, Esq. deceased, who was an eminent

attorney at law in this city, for many years before the American

revolution, and also a member of the legislature, as a number still

living can remember. The letter was addressed to his friend Dr.

Cadwalader Evans, of this city, but then settled for a few years in

the Island of Jamaica. The accident happened to John Kinsey, Jun. He

was the son of John Kinsey, Esq., one of the most eminent lawyers

of his time, also speaker of the Assembly and chief justice of the

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
