ARLINGTON, Jan. 4th, 1858.
Nv attention has been called TO on article
from the Boston Traveller, dated Washington,
Dec. "a, published in the New York Times OF
the 3Oth under the caption of "The Slaves OF
Mr. Gusts
II is there charged that the emancipation OF
the slaves will be much retarded If not wholly
prevented by his heirs; that all attempts to gee
the will OF Mr. Gusts have proved abortve;
that il is whispered about Washington that foul
play is in progress, in regard to the negroes on
his plantations in Virginia: that they are no"
being sold South; that all OF them will be con
signrd to hopeless slavery unless something IS
done, and that nothing can be done unless the
will is produced, &c &c.
Asitis, also, stated that NJ. Washington, OF
Mount Vernon is the chief among the heirs
who have conspired to suppress the Will OF Mt
Gusts. and to delraud the negroes OF their
rights, think it proper to state that Mr.. WASH
ington is not one of the heirs, has no interest III
Nh GUSTS estate, and so far as my knowledge
extends. is ignorant OF the provisions OF las
will. Mr. Gusts left his property 10 ms daugh
ter and only child, and her children. His will
was submitted to the Alexandria County Court
for probate on the LIST day of It's session, Che 7t
of December,) after the arrival OF the executor
at Arlington and is there on record IN his OWL
hand whiting, open to inspection. There IS tic
desire on the part of the heirs 10 prevent the
execution of its provision, in reference to the
slaves, nor is there any truth, or the least foun
da,ion Tor the assertion, that they are being
sold south
What Mr.. Gusts is said to have stated to the
Washington correspondent OF the Boston Ira
weller, or 10 his assembled slaves. on his death
bed, is not known to any member OF MS family
But it is well known that during the brief days
of his last illness he was constantly attended by
his daughter, grand-daugh ters, and niece, ant
faithfully visited by his physician and pastor
So rapid was the progress OF MS disease, after
its symptoms became alarming, that there was
no assembling of his servants, and ne took leave
of but one who was present when ne o"o'
farewell TO his iaml'y' II. T. hEh' Exec l.

We havereceved several inquiries from cor
respondents in the interior, So TO the stock Of
breadstufTs in this market; and the question
is always an interesting one at this season.
We have no means of preparing an answer,
the correctness of which can be mathcmati-
cally demonstrated but we can give an ap-
Approximate result which may prove satisfao-
tory. The taking of stock" is always attcn
ded with difficulty, and where it it strongly
for the interest Of holders to underrate the
quantity in store, such census cannot be re-
ned upon, as many have found out by costly
experience. We prefer method Of calcua-
ton based upon figures within our reach

10 the above receipts we have included
only such as have arrived by the regular
channels OF conveyance, and Of course the
aggregate IS considerably within the exact
total, as a number Of small lots are daily adj
ded through variety OF channels, where no
account is taken. We have carefully com
piled the summary from our own record,
from which we print daily the names of the
receivers. The exports are taken from the
official records at the Custom House, and the
total is the exact aggregate stated in the Gov
eminent returns. The sales for Eastern and
local consumption are estimated. Most of
those dealers who have had the greatest cx-
perience in this trade, fix the weekly absOrp-
ton, when no interruption occurs, at thirty
to thirty-fve barrels per week Ii is prOba-
bic that the demand from some distant points
supplied from this market, has been unusual
" active during the last nine weeks; but as
flour has been steadily declining, we do not
think any allowance is required on this &c
count especially as we have made our
estimate independent Of the weekly pre-
ducton Of the local millcrs, many of whom
have been doing large, steady business
of wheat -four held here is nearly, if not
quite, nine hundred thousand barrels. This
will answer two questions. First, it is a
sufficient reply to the question so repeatedly
asked few weeks ago GLOW is the produce
to be mOVcd?" And secondly, it answers a
question more recently prorounded to us by
country correspondents, "Why is standard
superlne -four selling in New York at 81 -
per barrel" Family flour, it must be un-
dcrstood, is of better quality than the bulk
Of the shipments, and the best local cousumE-
ton is made up of double extra" brands,
which are worth from two to four dollars
above the price Of standard supcrGne.
The stock Of wheat here is not large, as
most of the receipts have been taken for
milling or export. We should estimate the
total at about four hundred thousand bushels.
The stock OF Indian corn is not large, but is
daily increasing: there is but little old here,
and rev is not taken freely for export, being
rather too damp, md Is therefore accumula,
