The following is il Parton's Biography of
Thomas jefferson:
.'Mr. jefferson vas the most industrious
person | ever saw in my life. All the time
was with him / had full permission to visit his
room whenever | thought it necessary to see
him on business. knew how TO get into his
room at any time of day or night. l have
sometimes gone into his room when he was in
bed but aside from that, | never wen. into
it but twice, in the whole twenty years l was
with him, that did not find him employed
| never saw him sitting idle in his room but
twice. Once he was suffering with the tooth
ache; and once, in returning from his Bed
ford farm he had slept in q room where some
of the glass had been broken out of the win
dow, and the wind had blown upon him and
given him kind of neuralgia. At all other
times he was either reading, writing, talking,
working upon some model, or doing some
thing else. Mrs. Randolph was just like her
father in this respect. She was always
busy. II she wasn't reading or writing she
was always doing something. She used
to sit in Mr.. Jefferson's room grea, deal and
sew, or read, or talk, as he would be busy
about something else. As her daughters grew
up she taught them to be industrious like her
self. They used to take turns each day in
giving out to the servants and experimenting
the hOusekeeping."

MR.. HAYNES DEFEAT.

The Portland Advertiser has twice init
mated, and in its issue OF TUESDAY us
tinctlv charges that Mr.. Haynes was de-
feated for the legislature in this city by
tho efforts of the friends of Mr.. Hamlin
because of Mr.. Haynes personal hostility
to Mr.. Hamlin s reelection to the Senate.
As the independent press of which the Adj
yer is boosted type, are largely in the
habit of manufacturing their facts and
then stoutly repeating them as evidence OF
their truth, it may be too much to expect
any correction of this glazing mis,tate-
ment. But as matter of simple fact, the
defeat of Mr.. Haynes was in no wise con-
nected with the question of U. S. Senator !;
still less was it in any way brought
about by the presumed friends of Mr..
Hamlin. Indeed the gentleman who did
more than all others in the city to encour-
age and organize a bolt against Mr..
HAYNES is conspicuous and pronounced
friend of Gov. Perham for Senator. We
hazard little in saying that very large ma
ioritv of the republicans who voted for Mr..
Williams, are not presumed friends OF MIR.
Hamlin, while it is an undeniable fact that
of those cassed as Mr.. Hamlin's friends,
every one without exception voted for Mr..
Haynes.
Moreover we do not know that any one
has right to say anything in regard &c
Mr.. Haynes preferences for I. S. Senator
We certainly do not pretend to know, any
more than we know those of Mr.. North,
who was elected as regular republican
candidate on the same ticket. We pre-
sumo no gentleman living lad or has the
right to pledge either candidate on the
Senatorial question, and we do not believe
that single vote was given to Mr.. North
or withheld from Mr. Haynes on that
issue.
No one regretted Mr.. Haynes defea
more than we did. He is q young man o
talent, practical ability, large experience
in affairs, devoted to the interests of Au
gusta, and would we are sure, represen
our city in the Legislature most honorabl.
and efficiently. We trust moreover tina
the causes leading to his defeat, many o
them petty and personal. will prove tenn
porary and evanescent; so far as il
MS lies they certainly shall so prove, anC
as the first step thereto, we deem it high
" desirable that no malicious falsehoods
such as the Advertiser publishes, SHOULD
90 uncontradicted.
We do not expect the Advertiser to re-
tract its SANDER, but before repeating it
it should certainly be able to give the name

4 RIDE INTO TIE INTERIOR.
CoLEBRooK, N. H., Sept. Is, i

CoLEBRooK, N. H., Sept. 10, 1873.
To the Editor of the Journal:
Starting early Saturday morning from the
Lake House in Upton, Maine, we rode entire
ly across the State of New HAMPSHIRE, and
here we are, on the eastern shore of the Con-
necticut river, with a bridge at hand by
which, in a few minutes, we could enter Yer
mont You need not think our ride very as
tonishing as to its length, as New Hampshire
narrows up as it extends to the north, and at
| last ends in point. The emily townships we
crossed in this State were Cambridge, Enrol,
Maysfeld, Dixvile, and then Colebrook.
Probably the only cultivated land in the first
three lies on the road on which we Travelled.
We crossed the Androscoggin in Enrol, where
it is not a stream Of very great depth or
quantity Of lumber hoated from the Megallo-
way country down this stream to the mills be-
low during the spring freshets. A company
of land owners for this purpose maintain sew
eral dams on the Androscoggin, and operate
on the Megalloway timber lands every year.
Clear stream, coming out of Dixville Notch,
flows into the Androscoggin near the bridge
over which we passed. Along the banks OF
this stream the land is flat and fertile, par
taking of the character of what we call inter-
val land. Some of the farms look very we'll
and few of the farm houses ard buildings
are neat and in good taste. For some reason,
apples cannot be raised here; but rome
granates, here called Canada plums, are found
in great abundance, and ere much valued for
preserves and sauce. The road is singularly
ly level, smooth and hard for many miles.
until we draw nigh to the Notch and enter
the forest. Here we found almost the frs,
mud we have met with On our journey, bu,
much less Of il than in former years. For q
number of miles east Of the Notch, there i,
only an occasional clearing. IL is said there
is not an inhabitant on DiXvillc township
Once family lived near the eastern border
but they all died one after another, and af
forwards the house was burned. 1t was sat
sight to see the five grave stones of the Whit
temore family, their only memorial in this
solitary spot.
just outside of the Notch a path leads in
to the woods toward the south, where Il beau
tiful cascade comes tumbling down the side
of mountain. Passing on, we soon discern
the rocky walls Of the Notch. Soon after en-
tering it, we come to the path which leads to
the Flume, only few rods rods from the road.
The Plume is a channel for a stream of water
which comes from the mountain side, and APP

walls lifting themselves up on either hand
On the south side the cliff is for some distance
covered with large old trees, but on both sides
the lro~ning cregs appear from time to time
The road through the Notch makes frequent
curves, CONFORMING itself TO the shape of the
miles. In some places the cliffs are said to
be thousand feet in height. Near the mid
de OF the Notch, the sides are composed of
bare, broken, and often loose and apparently
crumbling stones, lying in all shapes away up
the steep acclvity. The top of the height
on each side is covered with trees The most
singular and striking feature is the frequent
projecting rocks, on the very summit of the
cliff, which sometimes on one side, and
sometimes on both, extend cut into the open
space. One OF these, called the Table Rock,
projects further and more boldly than the
rest, and is .ay0rite resort of the more dar-
ing Of those who climb the cliff Recently
steps have been cut for climbers, on the
southern side, where the height is the greatest
Some of cur party have tried the climbing

were obliged to hurry on. BY fine road
