HOW A PRODUCT OV THE GAR

TO THIS COUXTRY.
(HISTORY OF THE OLD TREE AT AB
INGDON, VIRGINIA.
Yon have seen and admired the
weeping; willow tree, (lie salix
babylonica; upon which he cap
tive Hebrews hui their harps
when they sat down 03- the river
Babylon and wept, when they re
membered Zion. Tt is a native of
the Garden of Eden, and not of
America, and I will tell you 1kw
it immigrated to this country.
More than a hundred and fifty
years ago a merchant lost his for
tune. He went to Smyrna, a sea
side city in Asia Minor, to recover
it. Alexander Pope, one of the
gteatest poets of England, was the
merchants warm friend and sympa
thized with him in his misfortunes.
Soon after the merchant arrived in
Snvyrna he sent to Pope, as :i pres
ent, a box of dried figs. At that
time the poet had built a beautiful
villa at Twickenham, on the bank
of the river Thames, and was
adorning it with trees, shrubbery
and flowering plants. On opening
the box of figs. Pope discovered in
it a small twig of the tree. It was
a stranrrer to him, as it came from
the east.
Kc rinnictl the Twig
In the ground near the river, close
by his villa. The spot accidentry
chosen for the plant happened to
be a favorable one to its growth,
for the twig was from the weeping
willow tree, probably from the
bank of one of the livers of Baby
lon, which flourishes best along
the border of water courses. This
little twig grew vigorously, and in
a few 3'ears it became a large tree
spieading wide its branches and
drooping, graceful sprays, and
winning the inspiration of the
poets friends as well as strangers.
It became the ancestor of all the
weeping willows in England.
There was a rebellion in the English-American
colonies in 1775.
British troops were sent to Boston
to put down the insurrection.
Their leaders expected to end it
in a few weeks of their arrival.
Some young officers brought fish
ing tackle with them to enable
them to enjoy sport after the brief
war. Others came to settle on
the confiscated lands of the lebels.
Among the latter was a young
officer on the staff of Gen. Howe.
He brought with him, wrapped in
oil silk, a twig from
Pojicn Weeping Willow
At Twickenham, which he in
tended to plant on some stream
watering his American estate.
Washington commanded an army
before Boston which kept the
British imprisoned in that city a
long time against their will. On
his staff was his stepson, John
Park Oustis, who frequently went
to the British headquarters under
cover of a flag, with dispatches to
Gen. Howe. He became ac
quainted with the 3'ouug officer
who had the willow twig, and they
became friends. Instead of crush
ing the rebellion in six weeks, the
British army at Boston, at the end
of an imprisonment of nine months,
was glad to fly by sea for life and
liberty to Halifax, hong before
thejflight the British subaltern, sat
isfied that he should never have
an estate in America to adorn,
gave his carefully-preserved wil
low twig to young Custis, who
planted it at Abingdon, his estate
in Virginia, where ,
It Crew and Flourishi'il.
And became a parent of all the
weeping willows in the United
States. Some time after the war
Gen. Horatio Gates, of the revolu
tion, settled on Rose Hill farm, on
New York island, and at the en
trance to a lane that led from a
country road to his country house
he planted a twig from the vigor
ous willow at Abingdon, which he
had brought with him. That road
is now Third avenue and the lane
is Twenty-second street. Gates
mansion, built of wood, and two
stories in hight, stood near the cor
ner of Twenty-seventh street and
Second avenue, where I saw it
consumed by fire in lSlu. The
tree which grew from the twig
planted at the entrance to Gates
lane remained until compara
tively a few years ago. It sdooil
on the north-east corner of Third
avenue and Twenly-second street.
It was a direct descendant, in the
third generation, of Popes willow,
planted at Twickenham m limit
1722.

Provlacetowu, Maw., letter.
Capt. Charles Sparks, who, with
his Ijoris crew, was previously re
ported lost from the whaling
schooner Edward Lee, has arri ed
here and makes the following state
ment: Both of the boats left the
vessel at 12:30 i m., May 1-lth, a
school of sperm whales being in
sight. The mate went on and

from the vessel he gave it up at
four o'clock and started to return
to the ve.Nsel. At live o clock lie

But not seeing cither the vessel or
its light, at eight o'clock that eren

moniins:. At daylight the captain
and live men with him in a whale
boat, found nothing in sight.
The conviction then forced itself
upon them that they were lost in
mid-ocean, fully one thousand
miles from land. They had no
clothing but shirts and pantaloons.
not a coat or jacket, and every one
of the six persons were barefoot.
When they left their vessel the
breaker was full of water, but
every drop was drauk before giv
ing up the chase for whales. On
the sixth day they saw a school of
small sperm whales, and suc
ceeded in capturing one, from
which they cut about fifteen
pounds of flesh, which was eaten
raw, lasting two days, when they
again suffered from the pangs of
hunger. Bain showers could be
seen passing each side of the boat,
but very little fell on them. In
the whole elven days he judged
that that two gallons of water was
caught in the boat, but being mixed
with salt water, did not quench
their thirst. Sometimes a mist in
the night would wet their shirts,
which were greedily sucked. One

the captain of their situation, but
leceived no invitation to come on
board. They begged of the cap
tain to give them food and water.
The captain made no reply, but
in about ten minutes the cook
brought each man a small drop of
water a.nd one hard-tack. Capt.
Sparks asked for accommodation
forjhimaelf and crew but was sternly
refused, and told to go on board of
another vessel that had hove in
sight. l he second vessel was
about two miles awajT and proved

particular mention of kind treat

Sons of the Albany Beer!
Respectfully Dedicated to and Soul by
CILVS. GRATTKE, - - - - ASTORIA.
Good evening kind friends, just listen to me.
And when you hae beard me, I'm sure
you'll agree,
I will give you a story, and sing it out clear
And the name of my song Is the ALBANY
BEER.
You can And it all round In this city of gold.
And the way that they make It has never
been told.
That's a secret they keep and hold very" dear.
For the whole country is drinking that
ALBANY BEER.
The brewer-. Is large and tlie machinery is
fine,
And every order Is sent to yon right up to
time.
Tliey get all kinds of orders from far and
from near.
And everv one's healthy that drinks AL
BANY BEER.
For every thing there looks so clean and so
neat,
And their beer Is so sparkling, it cannot be
beat.
If vou are feeling bad or the blues do appear,
Y'ou can drive them away by drinking AL
BANY BEER.
I have an old father, who's now eighty-three.
And this is the advice he gave unto me.
He spoke to me kindly with a, voice bright
and clear :
"If vou want to bo healthy, drink ALBANY
BEER."
Since then I have done so, and I'm hearty
and sound.
At the round age of flftyT can always be
found
At my dally labor before the sun does appear
And each day and night I drink ALBANY
BEER.
Also, on draught, THE CELEBRATED
BOCK BEER.
