The following extract IS from Ran
dall's Life of Jefferson -
Mr. Jefferson was generally rather a
favorite with the other sex, and not
without reason. His appearance was
engaging. His face. though angular
and far from beautiful, beamed with
intelligence. with bcnevolence, and
with the cheerful vivscity of happy,
hopeful spirit. His complexion was
ruddy and delicately fair; his reddish
chestnut hair, luxuriant and silken.-
dis full, deep set eyes, the prevailing
color of which was light hazel,
were peculiarly expressive. and mir
rored. as the clear lake mirrors the
cloud. the emotion which was passing
through his mind.
He stood six feet two and half
inches in height. and though very slim
at this period, his form was erect and
sinewy, and his movements displayed
elasticity and vigor Mr. jefferson S
temper was gentle. kindly and forgiv-
ing If it naturally had any thing Of
that warmth which is the usual con-
coinitant of affections and sympathies
so ardent, and j, no doubt had-it had
been subjugated by habitual control. -
Yet. under its even placidity. there
were not wanting those indications Of
calm -self-relisnce and courage which
all instinctively recognize and respect.
There is not ar instance on record
of his having been engaged in per-
sonal r,ncoun e. or his having suffered
a personal indigni;y. Possessing the
accomplishments. he avoided the vices
of the young Virginia gentry Of the
day, and class of habits, which, If
not vices themselves. were too often
made the prelude to them. He never
gsmbled. To avoid opportunities to
games which were generally accom-
panied with betting. he never learned
to distinguish one card from another;
he was moderate in the enjoyments OF
the table; to strong drinks he had an
aversion which rarely yielded to any
circumstances; his mouth vas unpollu-
ted By oaths OF tobacco.
Though he speaks Of enjoying 1.-The
victory of favorite horse" and the
death of the fox" he never put one
horse in training to run--never ran
but single race. and he very rarely
joined in the pleasant excitsment-he
knew it to be too pleasant for the as
piring student-of the chase. With
such qualities of mind and character.
with the favor Of powerful friends and
relatives, and even vice-royalty, to
urge him onward. Mr.. Jefferson was
not young man to be lightly regard
ed by the young or old of either sex.

&. And thus the highest judicial

Spect. Ana thus the highest Judicial
tribunal in our land. which ough, to te
the sure palladium Of our liberties. a:
one fell blow has demolished. so far as
II could, the foundation principle on
which they rest. Yet even this high
Court. in making the announcement;
so shocking to the friends Of Human
Rights--relies solely for its authority
upon the assumed fact, (since proved
to bs basel,ss 6ction. that this out
ragged portion Of the human family had
endured the oppression until some
two hundred years Of (robbery) J
"had sanctioned ani sanctifcd" the
iniquity. and all the nation had given
II the most unqualified and unques-
toned acquiescence. Still. becrazed
as that country was by its devotion TO
the interests of Slavery. it seems not
to have designed to overrun the foun-
dation of the 1hits mans liberty. II
only desired to submerge so much OF
the rock as furnished standing place
for the colored man. It seemed to
forget that that rock was q living prin-
ciple. which knew not distinction Of
races; and that when tn. tide of op-
preston. We. sleeping harmlessly at its
base. should once begin to rise, no
impoten. Canute might arrest the
progress Of its surging billows with
his hitherto shall We come. bu, no

Bold as was this extrs.judicial de-
cree in its assault upon 1.-The rights of
man." yet j, sought to conceal its
treason By the wicked pre,ext. that he
was only negro whose rights were
clovea down. And thus, sugaring
over the gall and bitterness of its true
character. il seeks to attain currency
and respectabiliiy in circl.s which
ignore the higher law. and where j; is
forgotten that God is no respectcr Of
persons.
But although politicians had held
up to ridicule the declaration of Hu.
man Rights as a mere flourish of
rhetoric" although the Supreme
Court had practically annulled it. by
denying their availability for the entire
race, yet thore remained still unex-
plored lower depth in the abyss of
treason to liberty. to which even the
weight Of the Supreme Court could
not sink. To penetrate that deep
abyss was a distinction reserved for
son Of the Church, wearer OF sacer-
dotal robes. professed preacher of
that Gospel which would give deliver
ance to the captives. and let all the
oppressed go free. The exigencies Of
Slavery could find or make such
man, and did find or make such
man, in the person Of Frederick A.
Ross. Of Alabama Some notice OF
his bold and INSCRIPTIONS denial Of the
rights of man" we reserve for q fu-
trre occasion.
