?hich aueh an excuse cannot be of
"S?'ordinary way of life was that of
rlch cultivated country gentleman.

charming hoenJtallty. But when he be

especially when deallng wltb the reprc

great eagerness for republlcan alm
pliclty" and an carnest deslra to aa
rape "'he glara of royalty and nobll
ity."
British Mioister Astomshed.
aii this affectatloa preaently brought
him Into trouble with no leaa a peraon
age than the new Brltlah aiihlater, who
thui reported it:
?I called on htr. ltadiaon, who ae
corripanied nie Ofliclally to intrcduce
me to the Preeldent. Wa wenl w>
getaer to the mai aion ho iae, 1 be?
ing in full odiiial coetuma, as the etl
qtiette of my place required on such a
formai Introductlon of a mlnlater of
Oreat Brltala to the PreBldent of the
I'mted States. On aiTlvlng al the hall
of audlence we found it etnpty, at
which Mr. Ifadiaon aeemed aurpriaed,
en.i proceeded to an entry leadlng t"
the Presldenfa study. I followed him.
Buppoalng that the Introductlon was to
take place ln an adjoining room. At
this moment Mr. Jefferson tntered the
entry at the other end, and all three of
us were packed in tbe narrow space,
from which, to make room, I was
obliged to back out. ln this awkward
position my Introductlon to the Preel
dent was made by Mr. tdadla m.
-Mr. Jefferaon'a appearance *
plained to me that the general clrcum
Btaaoea of my receptlon hai nol been
accldenta! but Btudled, I. in my otTI
cial costume, found myself. at the hour
of reception he had hlmaelf tppolnted,
introduccd to a man as the Preeldent
of the Unit^d States. nol merelv ln un
undress lally atandlng ln allp
pers down at the heels and both panta
loons, coat and underclothea Indlca
tive of utter alovenllnesa and Indlffer
e.nce to appearancee, and In a state of
negllgence actually Btudled."
About the same time he formally ln
troduced ir his offlclal dinners at the
White House the nile that there shouid
be no precedence and no assignment of
aeats?that people shouid go in as they
liked and take what seats they COUld
find. Both the Britlsh and Spaniah min
lsterr omcially reported offensive altu<
atlons in which they found thtmselves
involved through this rule. 1'ltiniately
the diplomatic corps held a meetingoti
theeubject to express thelr resentment,
and the French Minister wrote Talley
rand that "Washington BOClaty la
turned upalde down." Mr. Jefferson
found himself so anaoyed by the bear?
ing of the Spaniah Minister. Seftor
Yrujo, that he af-ked his recali, and
had to submit to a snub from the
Spanish government, which took no
ej.iest. These and other
troubles ln which this afftcted "sim
plicity of life" involved him were prob?
ably what led to his complete reversal
Of these hablts toward the middle of
his second Administration. From that
time he became again the courtly hos*
and courteous gentleman of Monticello
or of the French mlaalon.
V;ews Concerning England.
Mr. Jefferaon'a expresslons of oplnlon
concerning Kngland were so confllctlng
at different pafteda a-- to suggest that
they were uncandld and for a purpose.
Thus he wrote at one time: "Xo two
countrles upon earth have po rnany
points of common interest and frieid
shlp; and thelr rulers must be g?e?t
bunglers indeed if with *uch dlsposl
tlons they hreak rhem aBundeh" At
another time, on'y a few months be?
fore the Declaration, he wrote: "There
ia not in the Rrltish Empire a man
who more cordially loves a union with
Great Brltain than I do." Some years
later he wrote to Mr. Monroe, '"We
have more reason to hate England
than any nation on earth," and ti
Wllliam Carmichael, "I consldered the
Engltsh aa our nf.tural enemy, and as
the only nation on earth that wlsh us
111 from the bottom of their souls."
And to Lafajrette, ' England'B selflsh
prlnciples render her ineapable of hon
orable patronage or disinterested co
operatlon." Then he discovered that
Napoleon had outwltted him in secur
ing from Spain the re-cesslon of Loulsi
ana; and instantlv he was in love ag^in
with England. He wrote to Eiving
aton in France: "The day that Franc<j
takes possession of New Orleans . .
*eals the union of two natlons who, ln
conjunction, can matntain exclusive
possession of the ocean. From thr.t
moment we must marry ouraelves to
the British fleet and nation."
He was unjuetly accused of irre
ligion. He had asked James Madlson
"whether the llberties of a nation could
be thought secure when we have re
mov-d their only firm basis, a convlc
Haa in the mlnds of the people that
th'M Hbartlea are of the gift of God."
ln fact. no man had deeper rellglous
feellng,?or a greater varlety of re
ligioua bellef. H ? was born ln and
adhered for a time to his parish
church (Eplscopa!) in Virginia. At one
time he wanted to bring over the Cal
vinistic tinlver/rity at Geneva, with all
Ita professors, and use it aa the basls
for the Uivlverslty of Virginia. At an?
other time he wished to do the samei
with the equally Calvinlatlc I'rnverslty
of Edlnburgh, and urged the Legls
lature of Virginia to puy the expense
af the transfer of the enttre fa< ulty
and aaaume the reaponsibility of their
support "for the good of our country
ln general and the promotion of acl
ence." Theae two unlveraltle.a he then
regarded as pre-emlnent ln all Europe.
Later (when he was past elghty, and
had by this time become a Unitarlan.i
he denounced Calvlnlsm In his uaual
vehement way. "The flve polnta of
Palvintsm," he wrote, "were h blaaphe
moua abaurdity.?the hOCUg >OCUg phan
taam of a God <reated by Calvln wliich,
Hka another Cerberns, had one. body
kar.d three heada." It would be more
f
pardonable. he aald "to believe in no
God at all than to blaapheme Him by
the atroclous attributes of Calvin."
Such utterancea doubtleaa explain the
frequent charge of iireligion. He never
outgrew the vulgar and ilt-bred habit
of anaerlng al rellgloua bellefi he could
not at the moment share,?never
learned that only a boor could lnsult
the religioiiK <onvi.-tions of anybody.
Opinions on Religion.
in 1816, when ahready out of publle
llfe. he allowed a pamphlet issued by
Dr. Lyman Beecher to draw him into
aome remarkable expreaalona ?d
dres^.-d flral to an unknown Northern
apondent, the more extreme state
uieiits then taken out. and sent to the
edltor of "The Rlchmond Enqulrer,"
with the reqiiest for their publlcatlon,
the authorahlp to be carefully con
Cealed. In tbe letter asklng this. he
Ibea Dr. Beecher'a pamphlet aa
?the most bold and linpudent sttide
New Knsland has ever taken in arro
gating ati aecendancy over the reat of
the I'nlon." He wrote: "1 am not
afraid of ttie prleata TbO) ha\e trled

ploua whlning, hypocrltlcal cantlng,
lylng and olandertng, wlthout being

Vlrglnla, whoae euperlar rellgloua

same letter. had early made lt penal

lawful aaaembUng of Quakers, had

blmsell 10 his N-.tes on Vlrglnla, and,
beeldea, II ha<i taaked hla own early
zeal tn carrj the atatute for reiigious
freedom In ihe cotony. it is Idle, then,
to regard theae wlld expreaalona as the
aerloua convlctlona about religion. or
r.-iieions of either a phlloaopher or a
ftateaman. They were merely the pet
ulance and apleen of a man haraaaed
by political attach ainl newspaper
abuse, or perhaps th* pose of a polttl
cian-to affect his followera, the same
polltlclan who thought it desirable to
transform himself from a gentleman
to an tincouth boor in order to r-ceive
foreign ministers, in d"e republican
atmpllclty."
One of the most Inexcusable featurea
in his DOlltleal stniggles was his use
of the blackmailers. Callendei Fteneau
and ofners. in his vlndl.tne warfare
agains. Hamllton. The most mlaerahla
pcandal of thal wbole period was a
ecurrilous atta. k upon Hamilton s prl
vate morals and offtdal Integrlty, pr
pared and publlahed b) Callender.
Son.e hfcetertena have even asserted
that H waa aobmltted by him to Jeffer?
son for approval before its publlcatlon,
^e attackl by other blackmailers.
Mr. Jefferson knew at any rate with
whom he waa dealing. for the man had
already been ln prison, and he had par
doned'hlm. He BOOn received a Just
punlshment. for Callender turned upon
him and Blandered hhn more vlllan
oualy even than he had slandered
Hamllton. on the same lines, and with
as little cauae.
Peraonal Relationa.
No aooount of the man's great career
Is . omplete whlch does not make eoma
rr.antion of these odious detaila, but lt
Is time to turn to another and more
agreeable eide of him, as revealed in
his peraonal relatlons to his political
associates, to his followers. and his in
tlmate friends. in the times that tned
men-e souls. He rarely lost a friend or
a follower. The foibles and ?ven the
follles and worse that have been men
tloned were known, but did not depme
blm of tbp enthusiastlc adn.iratioii of
the great partv whlch long ruled the
country. They did not even detract
materiallv from the affectionate rega^u
ln which he came to be held by all who
remembered the Revolutionary strug
gle. Romfl placed him next to Waah
tngton and Franklin; BOUM placed him
bealde John Adama Most Arnerlcans
counted him in the flrst half doz*n of
?the Revolutionary fathers."
ln his family cir< le he was adored.
Bverythlng Indleatea that be was the
most 'affectionate of buabanda and the
most davotad of parenta ln a period
of storm and attack from unexpected
quarten hla wlfa wrote of blnv: "He
iP ao good hlmaelf. he cannot under
!,,?,! bOW bad others can be." Hla
nalghhora were all bla frlenda. They
probably knew that tha real character
of the man (however varlable it mlght
aometimes aeem) . was revealed ln .his
brlef letter, written at the request of
a man who had named a BO* for him,
?I am sensible of the mark of eateem
manlfested by the name you have given
your BOn. Tell him from me that he
muat conaider. as essentlally belonging
to it. to love his friends and wish no
111 of hia enemies" His county and his
state kept him in offlce aa long as pos
sible, and aeemed alwaye eager for his
advb'ft ln every emergenoy To them
he was the one nnquestloned political
authority: and his influence was
?Carceiy shak*n even by the dlsastrous
fallure of his embargo pollcy or the
plttful results from his hatred of the
navy. ln fact. he had a genius for per
viadlng not merely his friends but a
majorlty of the voters that their 11b
erties were only safe whlle he waa on
guard, to aound the firrit alarm.
A Revalation of Character.
Another letter to a namesake give? a
rnore touching revelation of character.
It was not to be opened tlll the old
man had passed away:
This letter w ill. to f*% he as one
from the dead. The wrlter will be ln
the grave before you <an welgh Its
eounsels. Your affectionate and excel ?
lenl father has requaatad that i would
