The first we arrived at was Crow-field, Mr Wm Middleton's seat where we spent a most agreeable week. The house stands a mile from, but insight of the road, and makes a very hansoume appearance; as you draw nearer new beauties discover themselves, first The fruitful Vine mantling up the wall loading with delicious Clusters; next a spacious bason in the midst of a large green presents itself as you enter the gate that leads to the house, which is neatly finished; the rooms well contrived and elegantly furnished. From the back door is a spacious walk a thousand feet long; each side of which nearest the house is a grass plat ennamiled in a Sepertine manner with flowers. Next to that on the right hand is what immediately struck my rural taste, a thicket of young tall live oaks where a variety of Airry Chorristers pour forth their melody; and my darling, The mockingbird, joined in The artless Concert and inchanted me with his harmony. Opposite on the left hand is a large square boleing green sunk a little below The level of the rest of the garden with a walk quite round composed of a double row of fine large flowering Laurel and Catulpas which form both shade and beauty. My letter will be of unreasonable length if I don't Passover The mounts, Wilderness, etc , and come to The bottom of this charming spott where is a large fishpond with a mount rising out of the middle - the top of which is level with the dwelling house and upon it is a roman temple. On each side of this are other large fish ponds properly disposed which form a fine prospect of water from the house. Beyond this are the smiling fields dressed in Vivid green. Here Ceres and Pomona joyn hand in hand to crown the hospitable board. Eliza Lucas Pinckney
