POPE'S WILLOW.

ARLINGTON, on THE BANKS OF THE POTOMAC.

Parkr GUSTS, ESQ.,, that there is on the estate
sume willow trees. the veritabe descendants from
Pupe's willow at Twickenha,u. The following
curious history Of the transpantation and natu.
ralizing of these trees we had from the urbane
and talented proprietor of Arlington.
"In 1775, when the American army formed
the league of Boston. British officer. who had
been made prisoner, received attentions and kind
nesses from John Parke Gusts, then aid-de.camp
To the American Commander in Chief, and father
Of the present proprietor Of Arlington. On the
prisoner being exchanged, and about to return to
Europe. he expressed his gratitude for the atten-
tons he had received during his captivity, and
begged to know If he could do MIR. G. any SER
vice in return. Mr.. &. simply requested that a
pound of tea might be sent out from England, Tor
his mother in.law-his own patriotic lips reject
ing all such beverage. This the officer faithful
| ~ promised to do, aud he kept his promise; and
recollectins that, among his little curosltes, ne
had brought out from nome, were some slips Of
Pope's willow. Theoretically sealed up in an oil
skin case, he offered them to his American
friend; they were thankfully accepted, brought
to Virginia in the baggage Of the aidde-camp.

II any thing we're wanting TO give attraction
to Arlington, in addition to the communicative
kindness Of its proprietor, aud the charms OF its
scenery and situation, it might be found in the
idea, that the parent tree OF those which give US

So we shut the doors and went on with our reso.
