ISV BESSIE B. I lave you ever stood on tho banks of tho Po tomac ? Not tho Potomac as you see it at Wash ington, or at that Mecca of tho American patriot, Mt. Vernon; but tho Potomac before its junction witli the Shenandoah ? If yon have, I need not tell you of tho picturesque scenery through which it flows; and if you have not, it will be in vain for pen of mine to attempt an adequate j description of its beauties. The gentle undula : tions of hill and dale, dotted here and there with the commodious, often elegant dwellings of the j planters, surrounded by the white cottages of their servants, here nestling in the bosom of some little valley, there perched upon the green slope of a hill, and peeping out from among em bowering trees: the smiling river, gliding'along in tranquil beauty, and the outlines of the Alle ghanics, looking blue and dim in the distance; all conspire to form a scene of loveliness, which the most skillful artist would find himself una ble to transfer to canvass. Sixty years ago, the dwellings in this locality were not as numerous as they now are, and you might often ride many miles without seeing a human habitation. In one of the Eastern coun ties of Virginia, near the junction of the North and South branelTS? of the Potomac, lived at that period two gentlemen, considerably advanced in lite, whom we shall call respectively Col. Lee, and Major Laurens- They had both served un der Washington, the army of the Revolution, i and could both boast that they had shed their blood in defence of their country. They had both been deprived by death of their chosen companions, and as their plantations joined, it is no wonder that they were united by tho-etrong est bonds of friendship, or that scarcely a day passed without their meeting, and spending a portion of it in each other’s society. There was this dilference, however, that while Major Laurens was childless, Col. Lee had an in- I funt daughter, who had come to him with tho parting breath ol his beloved wife, and to whom lie had given her mother's name—Alice. She was a sweet little creature, with dove-like eyes, and sunny curls, and it was no wonder that
