~ man should not omit noticing the va
riety and extent Of his correspondence.
Even in his old age thousands of letters
flowed from his pen in the space of year
embracing questions Of government Of
morals, Of religion, of education, Of philo-
sophy, Of agriculture, OF mathematics, and
Of mechanics. There was no subject, how
ever great or involved, but received light
from his luminous mind. Well might we
exclaim, chow noble in reason how in
finite in faculties! in apprehension how
like god!"
The great and illuStrious Of the earth,
princes and patriots, philosophers and
statesmen, poets and divines, felt bonored
with his friendship. How should We es-
innate the vigor of his wondrous brain,
when in his eighty-third year and few
days before his death, he was competent
to write his celebrated letter to General
Weightman, one celebrated passage of
which quote:
"The general spread of the light of Sci
ence has already laid open to every view,
! the palpable truth, that the mass Of man
kind has not been born with saddles on
their backs and favored few, booted and
spurred, ready TO ride them legitimately
by the grace Of God"
In tracing succinctly the career of this
great man, as lawyer, as member Of the
House Of BurgcsSes Of Virginia, as Mcni-
Der of the Continental Congress, as Chair
man of the committee that drafted the
Declaration Of Independence, as Governor
of Virginia, as Minister to France, as Sec.
rotary Of State under Washington, as
President Of the United States-iS it not
wonderful to find that he was pursued
WITH the most unrefenting maIevolence !
And We are still more astonished at this,
when we reflect that not alone was he thus
eminent and meritorious in public life, but
was also admirable and estimable in all
the relations Of private life: A man of
sterling integrity, lover of virtue and
justice, of Spartan simplicity in life and
manners, a loving husband, fond and af-
fectionate father, an attached friend, an
obliging neighbor-a man in whom there
was no guile.
Nevertheless Jefferson received an I'M
measured share of vituperation. The Press
lent its mighty aid in his abuse, in the
endeavor to blacken and sully his fair
fame. The Pulpit, in its influence great
in any time but doubly great in his, thun-
dered its denunciatons and hurled its
anathemas at the head of the "InttleLp
And fierce, proud, PROSTATE and con-
quered party, in life or death, never for.
gave him.
But absorbed in his own great pursuits
far removed from the passions and rival
ries of bis charlottesville pitied their ex-
hibitions of animoSity. No action of theirs
could rutfie his serene and princely spirit
And he died calmly and hopefully, free
from the agitatng superstitions that at
tend the exit from this world of the COM
mon lot of mortalS. R Ii.

The weekly mountain Democrat. [volume] (Placerville, El Dorado County, Calif.) 1861-1862, 1862-02-08

At no period in the history of public
journalism, in America. has there been
such marked wan; of independence as at
the present time. 1t has always been
admitted by the good and wise, that an
unfettered press is the true guardian of
I the peoples interests, and the check rein
of free government. In the good old
days Of Whiggery and Democracy, when
1 princple was the watchwOrd of battle,
the press was protected in its rights and
applaudcd in its freedom. Corrurtion in
high places shrank from its searching
gaze; and statesmen moulded their course
from its wise counsel. Measures and
means for the public welfare were freely
and fearles>ly discussed and provided, and
political wisdom disseminated to a willing
people. The secret plots of legislators
and government officials were dragged
forth to public gaze, disrobed of false ap.
pearances, and thwarted Of cOnsummation.
The President and his Cabinet even were
not lost sight Of, through the hope of gain
OF fear Of punishment. The press va,
free, and its voice was powerful The
press was potent, because it was free;
great, because it was independent; fear
less, because it was protected in its free,
dom. No kingly decree could suppress
its voice-nO threats Of imprisonment
deter its purpose 1t was the guardian
spirit of right-and the necessity of
pure, brave and honorable nation. And
in return for all this, it gave wealth, pros.
perty, enlightenment, valOr, glory TO its
country. But now, how changed! The
homcy words of truth that once awoke
a confiding people to vigilance, must be
changed to tremulouS, silver toned lies
or the stamp Of treason is laid upon its
fmouth. No differing of opinion now-no
right to think, and speak those thoughts
no right to question, to suggest, to dis.
sent-but to yield to power, bow to au-
thority, no matter how that power NAV
be abused, no matter how that authority
may err, either through bad Judgment or
dcSign authority is authority, and that
settles the case. Abuses Of the grOsscst
nature may be practised, and the journal
list that holds them up to condemnation
is anathamatized. Question the infalibl-
ity Of existing authority, and treason"
is Missed in your ear-doubt the expedi.
ency of a government measure, and your
loyalty" is doubted Dissent from folly,
and you are ORATOR" Such was not
the case when this country was gather
ing back bone and strength from the
roughShod counsel of free press, which
Scorned the tender pointed pens of the
servile sheets that now wink at wrongs
and mismanagements,
And crook the pregnant hinges Of the knee,
Where thrift may follow fawnng.'
