USS ''Leslie'' (1861) was a steamer acquired by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Navy as a tugboat. ''Leslie'' was a screw tug borrowed from the Union Army by the Navy early in 1861 for duty at the Washington Navy Yard. == ''Leslie'' sails to Washington to warn of the CSS Virginia ==
On 9 March 1862, ''Leslie'' alerted Union naval forces defending Washington, D.C., of the threat from Confederate ironclad ''CSS Virginia''. However, while she steamed to the mouth of the Potomac River with word of ''Virginia’s'' brilliantly successful and ominous foray, plucky was fighting the dreaded Confederate ironclad to a standstill and neutralizing the threat to the Union capital.
