TOE WEI LIN,TON TRII.—IVe are informed by a
literary gentleicri to whom his Majesty lately comic-
scendjil to show some of his suriosities that the King has
'
at Windsor a royal chair, composed entirely out of the
trunk of the famous elm by which the Duke of Welling-
ton stood at the Battle of Waterloo. We may say of it
that it would not shame any monarch to be crowned in
such a seat. The Ithtory of the tree is curious. When
iris. Children, one of the Curators of the British Museum,
visited the plain of Waterloo, about seven years ago, he
found the tree in question marked for destruction by the
Proprietor of the soil, who told him that so many people
ame to visit it, that the produce of half an acre of land
was annually lost in consequenci-. A bargain was soon
struck, and lir. C. became the on tier of this precious piece
of timber, which yields in value only to the Shakespeare
mulberry tree. Mr. C. we understand, has supplied the
cabinets of several of his literary friends with choice slices
