at JEFFERSON’S HOME.
The Historic Mansion Built by
the “Sage of Monticello.”
Th<> Condition of the Property and Its
Peculiar Attraction*— lts Present
Proprietor.
WaflhinKton Critic.]
Monticello, the home of Thomas Jef
ferson, and his last resting place, will
ever possess a peculiar charm for patri
otic Americans. Many and voluminous
descriptions of the old mansion on “Lit
tle Mountain,” Italianized by Jefferson
into Monticello. have been printed, and
the subject is invested with unfailing in
terest, for Monticello manor was built
, ]n ,l<*r the personal supervision of the
statesman and from plans made
by himself.
It is situated on the summit of the
mountain overlooking Charlottesville
and about three miles distant, affording
Hue view of the ITiiversity buildings, of
fptiich .Jefferson was also the architect.
f It is 110 miles from Washington and the
surrounding country, which is very fer
tile, is largely occupied by vineyards
growing many of the finest varieties of
graiM sin the country. These acres upon
acres of vines are the accretions of vines
originally brought from Europe by Mr.
Jefferson. Virginia claret has already
taken a distinct and enviable place in the
American wine market.
The Monticello tract contains about
400 acres, most of which is a magnificent
park, partly surrounded by outlying
vineyards.
The property was confiscated by the
Confederate authorities during the war
and for quite a number of years the
place was closed up, remaining so until
the present representative of the family,
.Mr. Jefferson M. Levy, became of age,
when it came into his possession, and
has since been relieved of all its embar
rassments.
Mr. Levy is* now at the Arlington
Hotel, in this city, accompanied by his
sister, a charming and accomplished
young lady, and in conversation with a
Critic reporter he furnished many inter
esting details of tin* history of his beau
tiful home that have never been in print
before.
MONTICELLO AS IT IS.
“Monticello was last owned try my late
uncle, Commodore Uriah P. Levy,” he
said. “Commodore Levy, it will be re
membered, presented to the United States
in 1833 the magnificent bronze statue of
Jefferson now in Statuary flail at the
Capitol. It was made by the French
sculptor, David d’Anjiers, and Mr. Levy
says is the best likeness of Jefferson
extant.
“The old homestead,” continued Mr.
1-ievy, “has changed but little since Jeffer
son lived there. During the time that
it was confiscated many of the smaller
articles of furniture were removed, but
the old French mirrors, the old tower
clock and the Louis XIV. furniture re
main. Crowds visit the place, many of
them travelers on their way to White
Sulphur Springs and other Southern
resorts. All are freely admitted to the
grounds and many of the visitors call at
the house and look through the larger
rooms.
“Inherited by President Jefferson from
his father, Peter Jefferson, who ‘paten
ted the tract in the early colonoial
tunes, it passed to my uncle, Commodore
bevy, and thence, after its period of con
fiscation, to myself, and it still remains
the
OLI) COLONIAL MANOR
that Jefferson made it. The section of
' h'ginia in which Monticello is located is
rapidly improving, and is more prosper
<ms than it has been for many years.
* he I uiversity of Virginia, built by Mr.
•Jefferson, has over 400 students, and is
m a V(j ry prosperous condition. This
* t'b’ersity, by the way, has the second
01 third largest telescope in the country.
Monticello is the oldest colonial man*
s '” n wow in existence. It was begun in
and first occupied in 1764. All
a tound it are old trees planted by Jeffer-
SUn - No alterations are permitted.
THE MANSION.
Ihe house is of the classical Italian
B Cvle of architecture, and the Executive
Mansion down there,” said Mr. Levy
nodding his head toward where its white
'vails gleamed through the leafless trees
bafayette Park, “was moddeled after
P) and the appearance of the two is quite
s *milar, excepting for the large central
dome over the ball room at Monticello.
b'it the architects of the White Housegot
m.iny of their ideas from Monticello.
Ihe reason that Monticello is not* as
familiar to Americans as Mount Vernon,
"hieh cannot compare with Jefferson's
borne in natural beauty, is that since the
"at, until 1876, it has been closed
against inspection. It is directly in the
hie of Southern travel, and the numbe r
°f visitors is constantly increasing. Last
‘ lllll there were sometimes

A HUNDRED VISITORS IN A SINGLE DAY.
“We cannot of course allow the grounds
to be made a public park, but we are al
ways glad to show visitors our home and
objects of historical interest. This year
I contemplate the erection of a lodge at
the gates where visitors can‘register their
names as they enter the grounds.
THE FOURTH AT MONTICELLO.
“That proudest of American holidays,
the Fourth of July, is always religiously
observed at Monticello. On every Inde
pendence Day, while the place has been
occupied by our family, and ever since its
builder prepared that glorious document,
the Declaration of Independence has been
read to the assembled household in the
great hall, with the tower clock ticking
away over Hie wide doorway in 1887 just
as in 1787.”
• THE RELIC HUNTERS.
“Does the great army of r**lic hunters
ever threaten to ‘loot’ your residence?”
asked the reporter.
“Yes, I presume if they had a chance
the very bricks would be broken up in
small pieces and carried away. But
each party of visitors is accompanied by
one of our servants, and there is no op
portunity for them to take away any r
thing of value or to deface the property.
You, perhaps, have seen sticks
said to have been cut
from the trees at Monticello. What?
Well, I'm sorry you invested in one be
cause none of the trees are allow ed to be
mutillated, and your stick certainly did
not come from there, nor did any of the
sticks and other relics offered for sale.”
MR. JEFFERSON .\l. LEVEY
is the son of Captain J. P. Levy, an offi
cer during the Mexican war, and Commo
dore Levy’s nephew. Mr. Levy makes
his home in New York city during the
winter months, living at Monticello from
May till late in November, where he en
tertains hospitably. His mother does
the honors as hostess and takes as much
pleasure in showing the visitors the
beauties of her historic home as does her
son. For the last year or so they have
been abroad, but they have now returned
to their New York home, where they will
stay until they return to Monticello
next summer.
Since his arrival in the city Mr. Levy
has called on the President and asked
him to visit Monticello some time during
the coming summer, and it is not im
probable that Mr. Cleveland will accept
the invitation.
The tomb erected over Jefferson’s
grave, under the old oak planted by
himself, was some time ago removed by
the Government and replaced by a state
ly granite shaft 25 feet high, but the oak
remains, still sheltering the grave of the
man who planted it —the grave of the
“Sage of Monticello.”
COMMODORE LEVY.
Commodore Levy was one of the best
known officers of the old navy, lie was
a strict disciplinarian and a punctilious
man of honor, lie was also a duellist of
the old school and brooked but little
that savored of lack of respect. His most
famous duel was that fought with Lieu
tenant Potter, U. S. N., on League Is
land, Philadelphia in 1814. The cause
of this duel was the mispronuciation of
Commodore Levy’s name by Potter.
The duel lasted several hours and re
sulted in Lieutenant Potter’s being
killed on the field of honor. Commodore
Levy asked for a court martial, which
was given him, and resulted in honora
ble acquittal.
The Commodore was the author of the
rules of naval official etiquette, which
with slight modification, are still fol
lowed. With all his rigid ideas of dis
cipline however, he was given the title
of the “Bailors’ Father” because of the
abolishment, through his efforts, of flog
ging in the navy.
During the war of 1812 he was an
officer on the American man-of-war in
the famous battle between the Argus and
the Pelican in the English Channel, and
when the American vessel was captured
he was taken prisoner, and for eighteen
months he laid in chains in Dartmoor
prison, until he •was exchanged at the
close of the war.
In 1833 he presented the bronze statue,
mentioned above, to the United States.
He was in France when he gave David
d’Anjiers the order for the statue, and
there saw LaFayette's picture of Jeffer
son. The statue was modeled directly
from this picture, and when General
I.aFayette went to the sculptor’s studio
he is said to have thrown his arms
around the clay and murmured “Jeffer
son.” This statue has recently been
copied for the bust that is to be placed
in the Senate collection of Presidents of
the Senate.
It was at the suggestion of President
Jackson that Commodore Levy bought
Monticello and devoted a great deal of
time and attention to making it the
handsome mansion Jefferson designed it
to be.
At the breaking out of the late war
Commodore Levy was in favor of con
ciliatory measures, and was a member
of the Peace Convention that met in
New York. When war became inevitable
he took a prominent position on the
Federal side, and was placed in com
mand of the Boston Navy-Yard. It was
on his way to that post that he was
suddenly taken sick and died a short
while after. During the war the Confed
eracy confiscated his Virginia estates,
including Monticello.
Captain J. P. Levy, the father of the
present owner of Monticello, commanded
the United States ship America during
the Mexican war and was placed in com
mand of the port of Vera Cruz by
Ceneral Scott.

TO MAKE STEEL.
Georgia Has the Finest Besse
mer Ores.
Georgia’* Wonderful Wealth of Iron—The
Finest Bessemer Ore in the World
—An Interview.
Atlanta Journal.]
On the map of Cape Colony, in the En
cyclopedia Britannica, appears a tribu
tary of the Orange river, which bears the
name of Prof. J. 1). Caldon, a mining en
gineer who had sixteen years experience
with Sir Daniel Frazier in the explora
tion of South Africa, and was made
second in command by that great min
eralogist.
Ihe town of Caldon, on the coast,
about forty miles east of the Cape of
Good Hope, is also named for Prof. Cal
don.
This gentleman has spent the last six
years in the Piedmont region, and he
considers it the richest iron country he
has ever seen. Since last June he has
made headquarters in Atlanta, and has
explored a number of counties jn North
and Middle Georgia.
He thinks Atlanta the finest site in the
country for the manufacture of steel.
“Take an area of one hundred miles
around Atlanta, Northwest, Northeast,
and take it fifty miles South, Southwest
and Southeast,” said he, “and the iron
ores in that region are wonderful in qual
ity and quantity. We have some of the
very best Bessemer ores in Northeast
Georgia, Northwest Georgia, and even
wichin five or six miles of the city of At
anta. The ores in Northeast Georgia
are principally magnetite and micaceous
specular, which are very low in phospho
rous, whereas the ores in Northwest Geor
gia are limonites and micaceous specular
ores, i hese are found in the vicinity of
Cartersville. Northwest and North of
East, again, we find in the vicinity of
Dalton and Tunnel Hill some very fine
manganiferous ores and red hematite
equal to the Swedish red hematite ores.
“What Atlanta needs to-day is a steel
plant, and Carters ville should have a
ferro-manganese furnace for making
ferro-manganese into pig* to be shipped
here to the steel furnace. They have
been shipping manganese for some time
from that county, to Carnegie Brothers,
of Pittsburg, and have been getting very
little for it. Jf the ores were sorted into
three different grades of manganese,
there is no doubt that they would get
more; but the proper process for them is
to have it smelted into ferro-manganese
and have it all shipped here to a steel
furnace. I find that Atlanta is the cen
ter of the belt. It is much cheaper to
haul ores from Northeast, or Northwest,
or North Georgia, over one road, than
it is to haul coal over several roads. We
have the Georgia Pacific, which runs
from Atlanta into the coal region, and
can supply us with coal over one road,
and the freight for hauling the ores to
Atlanta, for a distance of 20, 60 and
100 miles comes generally over one road.
Therefore I think that the plant in At
lanta would pay well.
“ The manufacture of steel rails and of
steel wire, of which there is a great deal
used in our ports for the rigging of ships -
also for machinery and nails, will soon
assume large proportions in the South.
I have no doubt that the day* is very
close at hand when there will be very, lit
tle iron turned out in pig. It will be prin;
cipally steel. Even our common nails
will be principally steel. Steel nails now
cost only T ten cents a keg more than iron
nails.”
“I must say for Georgia that she has
the ores for making that class of steel?”
“In what part of Georgia are they
found?”
“Cherokee Georgia has some very fine
ores; Lumpkin county, Bartow county
and Floyd county have some very fine
ores. You go into Polk and Cobb coun
ties and find Bessemer ores also. Then
you go into Catoosa and she has very’
fine red ores—as I said, equal to the
Swedish. Lumpkin, Bartow, Cherokee,
Cobb and DeKalb counties have the best
Bessemer ores, Fannin and Gilmer coun
ties have some high grade limonites,
equal to those in Bartow.”
“It is much better to ship the ores over
one road to Atlanta and haul the coal to
it than it would be .to ship the ores over
three or four roads to the coal. I find
the very highest class of Bessemer ores
right here in Georgia—just as good as the
ores shipped from Spain to make steel in
England at Harrington and points on
the Clyde. Coal or fuel is hauled to those
places from Sunderland, South Shiels,
the North of England and from Cardiff,
South Wales.”
A REFINER.
“I also think that a good refiner would
pay well in Atlanta for refining gold ores.
M hen you go down to the water’s level in
this country the gold is so mixed with
sulphurettes that it cannot be used with
tut going through a refiner. I can show
j you Nilphates of cop|er from Cherokee
county which will run S4OO of gold to
the ton, and it can’t be saved because
there is so much sulphur. The refiner
can save it, and the sulphur cau be used
in making sulphuric acid.
Then we have some very fine genthite,
an ore from which nickel is made. That
ore can also be worked in a refiner.
W e have also argentiferous galena in
Murray county, and near Allatoona,
w hich is so refractory that it cannot be
worked without a refiner. A lower grade
of these ores is being worked in the west.
It contains a strong percentage of zinc*
blende, which make it very refractory.
We have also some chromite in Towns
county, an ore which they are shipping
now from California to England. This
class of iron is used for pigment and for
making chromitic steel. Then we have
an abundance of corundum, which is
used for emery’.
The people of Atlanta do not realize
the importance of the Bessemer ores
which are found in North Georgia in such
great abundance.
The people of Chattanooga are about
to build a railroad to Murphy, N. C., the
chief purpose of which is to get the Bes
semer '-es from the northeast part of the
Georgia belt in the vicinity of Murphy, in
Towns and Fannin counties, while At
lanta already has access to someof those
fields over the Marietta and North Geor
gia railroad. This road will be com
pleted to Murphy by the first of April.
Atlanta seems to be sleeping over her
fortune.
There is a chance for iron kings in this
town as well as in Chattanooga, Pitts
burg or any of the other iron cities. We
can ship our ores to-day to Chattanooga,
and they are worth from five to seven
and-a-half dollars a ton.

to himself. He was one of the practical,
leading members of the last House of
Representatives. His services on several
of the most important House commit
tees were valuable and highly appre
ciated by all his colleagues. He was an
advocate of reform in the matter of the
convict lease system and in public expen

GREAT GORGES OF GRAPHITE
Orgauization of One of the
Strongest Companies in the
South.
Western tHpitalistn Making Investments
in Baitow County—Gre.t Develop
ments to b • Made.
One of the finest organizations that
have lately been jierfected in the South is
“The Georgia Graphite Company.”
This company was organized in this
city last Tuesday. It has been incorpo
rated under the laws of Georgia with a
charter capital of fifty thousand dollars,
with the power to increase the same to
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
The election of officers resulted as fol
lows:
Col. C. M. Jones, President and General
Manager.
C. H. Coolidge, Vice President.
A. Longmore, Secretary’.
W. H. Howard, Treasurer, pro. tern.
Messrs. Milner, Akin and Harris, At
torneys.
Directors—Col. A. E. Buck, Atlanta,
Ga.; S. E. Pierce, Milwaukee, Wis.; Ed
mond Lee, Grand Rapids, Mich.; T. R.
Jones, Carters ville, Ga.; C. H. Coolidge,
Chattanooga, Term.; Col. C. M. Jones,
Stegall’s, Ga.; Hon. Tlios. W. Milner,
Cartersville, Ga.
In connection with the above officers
Mr. George W. Barber, of Milwaukee,
Wis., a stockholder, will quite likely be
interested as superintendent.
The property of the company’ consists
of four hundred and twenty’ acres of land,
located about five miles from this city’
and forty miles from Atlanta. On this
land is an exhaustless supply of graph
ite, or black lead. There is also a great
deal of red lead, iron ore, manganese
ore and oth**r minerals. Besides all these
valuable minerals, the majority of which
go to make up the world’s products,
nearly the whole tract of land is covered
with timber, so that it can be manufac
tured up into boxes, crates or barrels for
the different minerals or for profit.
WHAT THE COMPANY PROPOSES TO DO.
Among the objects and purposes of the
company are to develop the minerals on
the property. # The manufacturing site of
these minerals will be located at the old
Empire woolen and flouring mills, a
building two and a half stories high, for
ty feet square, with an addition forty by
seventy. The mill was formerly used as
a wool carding and flouring mill, and has
in it now one of the finest wool carding
machines in the State. The water power
of this mill has been examined and rated
by men sent out by the State, and was
examined at low water-mark, and will be
found in the statistics of the State of
Georgia to be one hundred and forty
horse-power. The addition, with the
main building, givw available room for a
varied amount of manufacturing to be
carried on.
ANALYSIS OF THE GRAPHITE.
Prof. N. A. Pratt, State chemist, has
analyzed the graphite found on the prop
erty of this company, and finds over 95
per cent, of lubricating qualities. He
says the graphite is of a very fine and
unusual quality, soft and unctious, and
eminently fitted for lubricating purposes.
It also takes oil kindly, and spreads
well and smoothly under the brush, and
is a good fire proof paint. Its color and
quality also favor it as a roofing paint,
either for shingles, metal or composition
roofs. He further says:
“I know of no other locality in the State
or elsewhere so well adopted to the pur
poses you propose or promising more
speedy returns on labor and investment.
Material like this will immediately com
mand the attention ol manufacturers of
black lead crucibles and blue pots, so
largely used in the manufacture of fine
cast steel, phosphor bronzes and other
alloys.”
TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES.
The transportation facilities of this
company are first-class. The Western
& Atlantic railroad runs through two
lots of the company, the iron ore deposit
lying on one side of the railroad and the
manganese on the other.
A BRIGHT OUTLOOK.
No company was ever formed that had
a brighter outlook for future prosperity
than the Graphite company. The stock
holders, many of whom are western
capitalists, are enthusiastic over the
project. \Y hen we consider the amount
and available resources, the ease and
cheapness of transportatian, the readi
ness with which mining and manufactur
ing may be carried on without expensive
machinery, the prospective and present
demand for the products, stimulates
this property, and must receive from the
advent of every new manufacturing en
terprise, together with these facts, or
their combination, places everything fa
vorable in the highest degree to the fu
ture of this property,.

Our Knterpi M)i r Attonpu to Se
cure Another i>nilroHd for t'urtersville.
The readers of the Couhant-Amekican
will remember that at the last meeting of
the city council a committee was ap
pointed to see if the railroad which is to
be built by the Etowah Manufacturing
Company, could not be diverted from the
proposed route so that it would enter
Cartersville at the transfer yard. The
road will run from Humean Mountain,
and the idea was to connect with tlie \V.
& A. R. R. at some point south of this
city. It was thought that if the compa
ny could be induced to bring the roml to
Cartersvjlle great benefit might result.
The committee, however, did not feel
authorized to take certain steps necessa
ry tor the accomplishment of the object,
and it seemed that the project would fall
through. Realizing the situation and
the great importance to the city, our en
terprising mayor, Mr. J. C. Wofford, went
to work in behalf of our city, and it is
now highly probable that we will get the
road. It became necessary for a survey
to be made, which Mr. \\ afford is having
done. The payment for this work will be
raised by private subscription, and it is
hoped every citizen of the town will en
dorse the action of our mayor by sub
scribing to the fund.
The citizens of Cartersville should not
allow the road to strike the W. & A. R.
R. anywhere else than in Cartersville it
they can in any way help it. While it
will be built and u-od as a private ra: ,
road it is not likely that it will stay so.
It will be extended until it will become a
public road, and perhaps one of the
longest lines in Georgia.
Our city had the same opportunity at
one time to divert Joe Brown's road to
this city, but they displayed a spirit of
indifference and the road was allowed to
go to Rogers. Had it been built to Car
tersville it would probably by this time
have been built farther north and been
opened as a public railroad.
I he people of Cartersville should by no
means allow the present opportunity
to slip from them.

Important Invention.
A special from Washington, under
date of the Bth iust., states that, Acting
Consul Hornstedt, of.Moscow, has made
a report to the Department of State in
i egard to an important invention recently
patented by a Russian subject and now
being successfully worked in Russia. He
says the invention consists of a method
to produce iron and steel direct from the
ore. The whole secret of the process is
in the construction of the furnace, which
is simple and inexpensive. It will be
difficult for our iron masters to believe
that under the new process irow ore,
after submitting it to the ordinary smelt
ing process, is taken direct from the
-furnace to the rolling mill and turned
into sheet iron, yet such is the case there
being, to my certain knowledge, three
furnaces in this country now in full opera
tion and . working with great success.
There can be but little doubt that this
new invention will create a perfect revo
lution in the manufacture of chqrcoal
iron. Whether the process can be used
with equal advantage where coke is the
rule, I cannot postively assert, as the
furnaces I refer to are worked with char
coal. I am, however, assured that an
experiment made with coke was crowned
with equal success.
