Dr. Tvng of Philu. de!phia,( w hile on a journey South and West) to iits congregation, and published in the Episcopal Recorder. CkurlotlsvUk, 1ra. May 27, 1940. . Dour Brethren,?The continuance of an easterly storm has k"pt mo here, since tl.o contention adjourned. I parted with ail my brethren on Monday, separating to their various parishes an J homes. Ii was a melancholy and painful d-?y. The streets of this village, which huJ been so thronged with company, appeared pccul urdy empty ? i i ,k.. u n.j.i <11 hJ UeSOI.ite, U<I<J IJIW IHIUjCO "a-? been pouring oui their guests every clay us we passed i>y, seemed to be-uJI suut up in mourning, aftei the early hours of Monday had gone. I believe there has been no other clergy mm of our church than myseh in the town s nee the unbounded hospitality which been exercised, and the universal life which the presence of se veral hundred strangers had given to a small village, made the succeed ng stillness uppear, from the Strong contrast, yet more sil-nt. A !l whom i met were complaining- of the lonely l" l. ing. But the,meeting nas been undoubted, ly greatly blessed, and 'God has brought homo to himself, by its moans many wanderers, who are now pursuing u new and the only happy pa;h. O rnav he 4<eep tliein his power to a final salvationl There are two points of interest to me* in my visit ' here, to which I will devoie this h-titer, da. signing to write no Qtlior till 1 am on mv juurwy from hence to the mountains. The one is my v sit to Monticello, the residence of Mr, Jeff arson; theoh?r s .the university trhieu he established. My visit to the former was JTJ'tde on an ofi'moou of last week _ .. h.ilii - ..... 11 LniMKrt' It, ll.rt t i t i*>>a >(, It l|if a I'lUj nri II IVUUHII Ml HIV m^iiavj world worthy to be known much more widely, who h id been for many years an inma e o? iMr. JeflT-rsori's family, to which she is a relative. Af.er. dinner at the university where I Ji&fifiened 'o be that day -with iter, she gave me the invitation to join a purty she was aboil* escouWiug to Monticello.? Toe place is now owned and occupied by C'iptatu Levy, of the United S.aios Navy, \v!i<? probably has been so troubled with the frequency of visits to bis dwelling, that he has the reputation of being averse to receiving company to his house. It was i'wjreloro au object to be under the patronage of a member of Mr. J.'s faintly, to whom it is understood thedoors are always open. The house is upon the summit of a mountain three miles from Churloltsville. Tbe'tfternoon was cleaf, and well adapted to our purpose, and the ride was an cx. tremelv pleasant one. The ascent to the mountain is by a road which Ibis been well cut out and graduate J on the mountain side, through the midst of a wood which com. pletely hides every thing from your view, save in a single spot until, you reach the Very summit, and then a prospect bursts upon your e)es more maguificienfthan I had ever conceived, and certainly unsurpassed hy any thing on earth. When we reached the lop of the mountain, which has been levelled and cleared at an expense beyond present k owledge or calculation, the whole st;one completely entranced mo. The hou*e mid outbuildings i loll unnoticed, until I hud walked in solitude, around the? brow of the bill, which is the edge ??( the lawn surrounding tho house, and contemplated the grandeur of she scone before me. Tne views ure divided into two m>?in oues The westefn view exiends over-ft section of the* most fertile and varied country, covered with planta'ions, inters p. ryrd wiij* proves and cvl'.iva'ed fields, ornanvu.. ted wiih highly finished and beAu'ilid Pt.sl. dencea, and presenting so many awl so great a variety of objects, that the eye is bewik der?jd in the discrimination of them, mid is satisfied only by a regular examination of the successive points whi<-h ar?- presented. The Village ofCbarloltsvi le with the splendid buildings of the university, he on the kil almost under you; you look down upon them as a kith* cluster of houses over which you might spread a mantle as they sleep bemath your' loot. The highly, cultivated lulK of ^tbtmrarhi,-mingled wiflv the resideuce* of tl?eir wealthy, population, ex end beyond, and to the right. The Ravenna river wjth its green skirted banks winding through the-valleys like a silver stream, beheld at intervals as it as starts from among and around tho h.lls quite in the distance, and flowing on until ~ it seems lost in the very mountain ou which you stand, and around liar base ofavhicb it flots, forms n beautiful feature in the landscape. l5**yorid the counties of Mad is >n and ftappnhanuck, extend the variety and splendour of the view to un undefined distance. The whole prosp? ct is bounded by the Blue U dge, which shvtcfir* oir towards the north, and which Mr. Jefferson estimated might be seen for near ft hundred niiios in i s extent. The summits of these mountains form the hori. son, cast into every shape of beauty, clothed with the haayuess which has given, I suppns'-, the designation to the ridge, and impressing the idea of groat sublimity upon the mind. You aland und trace out tins irregularly curving horizon, until it fades away, in the distant north, perhaps six y or entity tr.iles from your own position. The whole scene is magnificient in the highest degree. How could an intelligent mind abide und dwell with the witness o| this gLry before it da\ !>y tf ty, and fail to offer the acknowledgment und honnge to the great Being whose hand had formed the whole? The eastern view is of a different description, I ss va. ried, perhaps less beautiful, but haying peculiar and great attract ions. Beneath, you see the Ravenna again as it comes from under the mountain, and fl vvs on in a southern direction to its junction with the James1 River. There is a Urge and handsome manufactory upon it just before you, wbicrr connected withihd cluster of houses around it, and encompasjtH in ili?* gnun % INK j? . % * woods, forms a beouliful point. Beyond,! the country seems to stretch out in a vast] level of woods, in which there are no 'irai portant elevations, save, in one point to the ; distant horizon. Tiiis view spreads over j Fluvanna county, of which Mr. Jefferson , used to say if jt could b? but converted into ' a Inks it would complete en.irely the beauty of the prospect. There is a want of some sheet of water to perfect the scene. Beyond :h's in one point you see the summits of j Willis' mountain, at a dis'nnco of about : sixty mil- s, which seem to rise upwards in solitude to the sky, as if th<y were parts of some oilier land fur distant. There is "rent O calmness and quietness resting upon this view. All is in u slate of repose, and the ; eye dwells upon it with gr?*at delight.? j Hours might/boctytent in walking around the lawn to survey each portion of the /nagnificien: panorama with great pleusure. I regretted the ht le time I had to cast my eye about, compelled nio rapidly and imperially to nutice a view so worthy oTIong contemplation. But .1 rejoiced in the re- j flnrlion rw t survived die eloiioUS KCene. , "these are thy works, Parent of good."? God is seen nigntrig in ins power in such an exhibition of the works ot his hand. ]% rejoiced in the reflection, that redemption has brought that glorious Creator so near { to his sinful creatures, and that as I beheld j what God could do, I might also say, ''this God is our God foreverand ever." flow precious becomes the approbation of such a Being as tho portion of iho redeemed j soui! From the contemplation of the out1 ward mugnificieucu we turned to examine? the house of a man who lived and died an unbeliever amidst all that God bad thus given hiin. It was nn elegant mansion, {though now extremely dilapidated. We found the owner very polite, and ready to welcome us to a view in the premises. It is a fanciful, irregular brick building of one apparent sory, though having a low second story, I believe surmounted with a dome.? I , It is composed of a large number of rooms ol all shapes and sizo.-, though w.thout one } room that could be singly culled an elegant j one among the whole: The hall you enter is handsome; beyond it is a drawing-room I u/ilti hlt/Mw iti ilivtuwi flnor nf j ...... - [ ! beacli und cherry wood, which is tru'y J beautiful, The-ui v n^-rooiiH on one side, j and Mr. Jefferson's s ud v on the other, i edmpkto ihe habitation. Tho latter was composed of five rooms, which in his time ! woce it I ways kept locked. Our friend'jArho was guiding us, showed he door i?t which ; every one who desired admission thenknocked for an entrance. His bed, in a low alcove between.two rootns. still remains i in its position. Ties, wi'li mirrors, constitutcs the r* niant of Ins lurmture, which is | theio to b*> seen. I cast a haxty glance i around, but Lb-It no interest in the scene. All that Was Jo bo bi-heid there were, ys tiicirhighest charm, but monuments ol a man who spent his M'e in opposing the cause most dear' to my heart, and in which my interests lor eternity are all involved. I had no respect for him while living, "ond j every view of his character and influence since his death has increased my abhor' rence of tin m. I Was glad to leave the ! scene within, and return to that without.? ; On my way down the mountain I went to i the burial ground of the lumdy. A single ; low obelisk of granite w ithout a name covers the ?put where Jeff rsou'e mortal re. mains are lying. Every thing is ruin around, j The brick wall fs torn down to its foundations, toinbs'one itself lias been broken and 'marred in every line and corner, 1 suppose j by devotes who would carry away a inc. I memo of his name. To my eye the bat| terpd, defaced, and broken stone, Appeared | but nn illustration of the character of him j whom it com memories, as it now appears in ' the eyes of men, while the desolation around ! would exhibit the ruin and darktv ss lie | would have spread upon the world abroad. i It was a suitable commemoration of trie than who set himself against the Lord of hosts.? But his influence h i* passed away. I have never heard his name spoken with so little respect, and so much aversion, as in this very neighborhood in which he lived and died.- i had never conceived his character | so bad us I have found it here. His plans j are ull defeated. The religion of Jesus tri umphs over all his opposition. The university which he founded to overthrow this blessed system has pissed from his influence, and is likely to be a powerful and permanent instiument to build up what he ! designed if should destroy. The gentleman who edited his writings, then uniting in his j infidelity, and wishing to cxiend his influ j erice, is now a devoted servant of the SaI ?* ?

II I mont highly doctrine he has espoused, and be n bright and blessed example in tlu' univers ty ofwWeh fie is a professor. And the whole sense of I he community has a wakened against t??o spirit and tendency of Mr. Jefferson's example. Great as hu might have been as a statesman and u philosopher, of which I do not speak, all his greatness hns perished and is fbrgoiten because he was an infidel. One cannot listen t;? all that I have heard und seen without perceive ing how seif.dcs:ruetive are the mightiest talents when perverted into opposition to the living God. Nor can the mind forget in such a connection the solemn imprecation of the Scripture, "go Jut all thine enemies pprishyO Lord." I intended to have spoken of the university also in this letter, j but I must leave it for another. . _i__ l ours uiiecuonaieiy, - S. H. T. POWER. OF RELIGION. : One of the most interesting anecdotes, j illustrating tho power of religion, was re. j late J a few days since, in a social meeting, j by nn English clergyman, who was acj qua in ted with the facts. A nobleman. Lord , wne a man of the wocld. His pleasures were drawn from, his riches, his honers, and Ins friends. His daughter was the idol of fiis heart. Much had been expended for her education, and : well did she repay, in her intellectual endow! mentSjthc solicitudeofher parents. Shu was J? : tfjw* KSX:?g?a0Bmgam&aKBismaammw\MM.vF3saKmmmmBatM | highly accomplished, amiable in her disponilio-M, and winning in her manners. | They were nil strangers to God. At length Miss ? attended a Methodist' meeting in London?was deeply awakened, and soon happily converted. Now she delighted in the service of the sanctuary, and social meeting. To her thecharms of Christianity were overflowing. She frequented those places where she met wiiheong* nial minds, animated with similar hopes. She was ofien found in the house of God. The change was marked by her fond father with pain ml solicitude. To see his lovely daughter thus infatuated, was to him an occasion of grief, and he resolved to correct her erroneous notions on ihe subject of the real pleasures and business of hie. He placed at her disposal large sums of money hoping she would be induced to go into the fashions and extravagancies of others of her birth, nnd leave the Methodist meeting. But site maintained her integrity. He took her on long journies, conducted in the most engaging manner, in order to divert Iter mind from religion; but she still delightedin the Saviour. Alter tailing in many projects which he fondly anticipated would be effectual in subdu ng lho religious feelings of his daughter, he introduced her into company under such circumstances, that she must either join in the recreation of the party, or give high offence. Hope lighted up in the countenance of her nlF ctionate but h< r misguided faiher, as he saw his snare about to entangle the object of his solicitude. It had been arranged among his friends that several young ladies should, on the approach'ng festive occasion, give a song accompanied by the piano fort". T:.o hour arrived; the party ossenibled. S'ver.il had-performed their pafis, to the great delight of the party, which was in high Vhll' is Yl1cc - ,...ll..,l />n n ennff I J ' " H'lJS tntll'u Ull IWI ? OU"^! ail 1 nV'iny hearts now bent high in hope ol vie orv. Should she decline, she w.ns disgraced; shouid she comply, iheir triumph wiis complete. Tbis-wns the moment to si-ul her fate ! With perfect s?lf possession she look lier seat at the piano forte>ran 'ier lingers over the keys, singing at the same lime in a beairiful melody, and with ff'sweet >oi?\yihe following slnirzas ; No room for mirth or trifling here, . Nor wordly hopes or worldly fear, If life soon.is gone t If now the judge is at tire door, And all mankind must stand before Tire inckorublo throne! No matter which my thoughts employ, A moment's misery or joy: Hut O ! when hotli shall dnd, Where shall I find iny dostinod place 7 Shall I my everlasting days With fiends or angels i pend! She arose from her sent. The whole parly whs subdued. Not a word whs spoken Her father wept aloud ! One by one all of th^m left the t ouse.
