commanding officer of detachment Of Vo-
luntcers from the state Of Tennessee, ordered
by the President Of the United States, for the
protection of the lower country, and few
days before the troops started on tloir rcturn
70 tennessee he was summoned as gaIn-
since III the slit aforesaid, that his duty inIpc.
riousjy required his accompanying the vol
untcCrs to Tennessee, consequently he could
not appear at the time to which lie was
summoned, but he made Il statement on

sUntcd to the court, and did hope that state

81 assembled the winding road, which leads
from Charlottesville to Monticello. The path
leads to crcuitous ascent of about two miles
up the miniature mountain, to the farm and
grave of Jefferson. On entering the gate
which opens INFO the enclosure, numerous
paths dverge in various directions, winding
through beautiful groves TO the summit Of the
hill. From the peak on which the house
stands, grand and nearly unlimited view
opens To the thickly wooded hills and fertile
vallies, which stretch Out on either side. The
University, with is dome, portieoes, and col.
onade, looks like a lair city in the plain; Char
lottesvilie seems to he directly beneath. No
spo, can be imagined combining greater adj
vantages OF grandeur, healthfulness, and seeu-

two large columns support porlIco, which
extends from the wings, and into it tie front
door opens. The apartments are neatly fur
nished and embellishrd with statues. busts, por-
trails and natural curiosities. The grounds
and out-houses have been neglecled-Mr. JEFF.
