After the Asylum Baftis-A Bitter Pill for
the Naho8eItes.


Correspondence Of the Richmond Dspaich.J
APRIL ~. 1884.
/ understand That tde action OF DICK
Wise during the last session OF TIE BOard
was OF such n character that even many Oh
his own party are outspoken IN condemn
ing him. A resolution was before the
Board allowing Wise 30 remain IN charge
OF the asylum until May LIST, to which sew
eral members objected; Wise then entered
the Board room I'm a violent rage, offered
his resignation as superintendent. QDr.
MOncure had been elected the day befofe,)
and the resignation was laid on the table.
He then informed the Board that they bad
elected four Of his bitterest personal enc
mics to positions, did some swearing aud
left the room.
The election OF four Democrats from
this place TO positions in the asylum was
the bitterest pill the Mahoneites have had
to take for some time. The election OF
Armistead, Brooks, Mercer. and Barlow
was dose for them. These gentlemen are
leading Democrats, and that Is enough for
any Mahonelte. The MahOneifes bad
claimed that the Board had been so liked
that not a Democrat from Williamsburg
should have anything at the asylum, esIe-
cially the signers OF the charges against
Wise which were presented 10 the Legisia-
ture. Mr.. II. L. Casey, the chairman OF
the Mahoneite committee, informed the
writer this morning that he would IN lew
days tender his resignation as chairman, ana
that he was no longer "lseadluster.D

A Weeping willow with a Pedigree.

When Alexander Pope. the great didac-
tic poet, resided at buckingham, England.
he was sent drum OF figs by friend In
Smyrna. In this was found a small twig,
which the poet planted. and which had
grown into beautiful weeping-wilow be-
fore his death. After his death his estate
fell into the hands OF Lady Howe, who
had conceived such a violent dislike to the
deformed poet on account OF his hav-
ing called her prude that she
destroyed absolutely everything about
his villa. A young British officer
saved from the general ruin twig
from Pope's weeping-willow, and. at the
beginning OF the American revolution. in
1775, brought 1t TO this country, whittier he
had been ordered with his command. II
had been the young officers intention to
settle on plantation In the South. but
finding this impracticabIe, he gave the VIII
low slip to Gusts, the stepson OF George
Washington, who planted Il at Arlington.
The beauty Of the tree aud its illustrious
ancestry induced General Gates 10 ask for
slip from 1t, which he obtained and
planted on Rose Hill, now part of New
York city, where II stood until quite
recently. The tree at Arlington was the
nrst weeping willow In the United States.

ton with that ciIyg Yet such Is now the
case with us. We do not know who is 10
blame, but somebody certainly is; and the
wrong is such an outrage upon Is that il
should be rghted AT once.
