stantial country mansion, built OF brick,
and two stories high.
As i entered through a large porticO in
front into The spacious hall, which had so
often echoed TO the martial tread OF the old
warrior, felt as il l was in the presence Of
other days-days in which party spiiit and
party animosities were as rabid and bitter
as now, but which were free from the cor
ruptioDs and stencil OF the present age.
There are four rooms on the lower floor,
large and <pac Gus, and each opening into
its adjoining neighbor by folding doors.
The leIt-hand front room is now used as
parlor, or reception-r0Om. In II are many
OF the curiosiiies collected by the General
during his eventual career. 1t is hand
somely furnished and taslefully hung with
paintings, many OF them by master hands.
Among the pictures which more particu-
larry interested me were portraits OF the
General and his wife. "Aunt rachel. with
the coru-c0b pipe" rs Amos Kendall deri-
siyeIy called her. The latter painting was
by Earl. did not see the "corn-cob pipe"
in the picture, but did see the kind, genial,
honest face, indicative Of that nature and
character with which the older citizens OF
that section TO this day clothe the memory
OF Mrs. jackson. The picture was well
executed, and Is said to be fine likeness.
The features were sharp and well cut,
especially the nose; and the eyes indicated
a lauguid sorrow and resignation. The
drapery was rather fantastic-entirely diff
ferent iron, what might have been expected
In one OF her plain aud domestic tastes
somewhat OF the Madame de Pompadour
style. The picture was not at all pretty,
nor even distingue, but there was some
thing about Il inexplicable-so something
"Frenchified," as IL werc-wbich would
strike an observer instantly. Altogether
the tout ensemble was rather pleasing than
otherwise. Near it hung the portrait OF
The General, and no one who has ever
seen bis features could forget them.
A front US Imperial as Jove when
