RANpALLs LIE OF JEyrEasoN --One Of the most
important additions to the Biographical literature Ct
our country is the Life CT Thomas Jefferson BY
Henry S. Randall, in three volumes. Thework has
everywhsrs received the unqualified appreciation Of
the pres. as the most Thorough and complete biOg~
raphy Of the author Of the Declaration Of Indepen-
dence that has ever been presented to the American
public This life Of jefferson, says The Phila~
/ d,lphia Press exhibits the public and private
/ character Of the illustrious subject with much
fairness as FITNESS. It is political well per-
sonal worl--not alone the biography of individ-
nal, however eminent and ;liusrious, but history
Of hs nation 70 which he belonged during the whole
period Of his public career. Ills earnest and inn
partial, and deserves to be regarded consulted ana
relied upon as authentic in lis various statements.
The inusnee quantity of material out Of which
Mr. Randall HIS constructed this Work-the noblest
monument over JeEerson--supplied authentic infor-
mation bat very few, who read the work ITSELF can
form an adequate idea Of the vast amount Of labor
requisite to bring order out Of that chaos Of Dfor
nation. Mr.. Randall has reduced,t the whole into a
lucid narrative, and judicously put the seal upon
his selfimposed and ably executed task, BY append
ing what American books rarely bave) general
analytic double column index Of fifty octave pages,
The result is a view Of Thomas
Jefferson the man, almost satisfactory as that Of
Johnson, given by Boswell or Of Scott, as drawn
with felieitous skill by Lockbart. The impression
which Mr. Randalrs /" labor Of love " has left upon
our mind is that, through him, we now have more
intimate acquaintance with Thomas Jefferson than
with any other of our great men of the Revolution
with the exception, perhaps, of Benjamin Frank
lin, whose autobiography (even with the defect and
misfortune of closing the narrative nineteen years
before the Declaration of Independence has made
the world familiar with him"
Our citizens viii have an opportunity of subscri-
