It hias long on- Joyed tho patronsge of gontlomon nttached to piscatoria] pursuita; whilo its proximity to Haddon Hall (from which it s distant only1l milo) and Chatsworth Hall (from which it is distant 3% miles) roundors it tho favorito resort of tho nrtist and tho antiquarian. Having arrived at Towsloy, tho visltor takos the direction of Chatsworth Hall, tho sont of Hia Graco' the Duke of Dovonshiro. Tho princely grandour of tho varied architec~ tural fostures of Chatsworth, its far-extonded . torrsces and gardons, its numorous fountains and caseades, inclosod on all sides by natural seonary, raroly equaled in pioturesquo beauty, wero objects of dolight and admiration to every travelor, both European and American, through Derbyshiro, during tho grontor part of tho lnst contury; whilst the improvemonts oarried on for somo yoars, guided by tho roflncd tasio of the 1ato Duke, hisvo nonrly quadrupled, both in ox- tent and magnificonco, tho limits of tho original Qesign 3, whilo it may bo justly eaid that, a8 a pri- vate mausion, it claims the proud distinction of baving no rival and no peor. Tor the lnst con- tury it hos borno tho name of * TAIE: PALAGE OF THE PEAR ;" and travelors of all nalions bavo considored t ono of tho most splondid residences in England. In procceding from OChatewortir Inn to the Palaco of tho Peak, it is bettor for tho pedes- trinn, immedintely atter passing tho lodge-gato, to divergo from tho carriago-road into tho park, in order to obtain & view of the maosion, - From tho summit of the rising ground on tho loft~ biand eldo of tho road, ono of tho most eplendid viows of this suporb edifico ia’ obtafued. Tho wholo of the wost front is at onco displayed’ to tho oyo, sud, with all its bonutifully-vavied fen- tures, forms & doflfihtl’nlly-iuturoutinz pleture. Ohatsworth is indeed, as viowed from this-point, 5 noblo structuro, This, tho prinolpal front, is rich in srchitectural ornsment, It comprices three divisions of oqus! dimensions, The base is rusticated, and tho contral com- gnr!mnnl is projected nnd distinguished y heudsomo fluted Ionic columns, which sup- ort an ornamontal friczo and podimont, within ho tympanum of which tho arms of tho Devon- shire family are admirably soulptured in stono, The right and loft portions of this elegant front bavo each fonr Auted Ionio pilasters,—tho wholo being surmounted with opon_balustrades, divid- od into sootions, and adornod, with urns, vases, ond statuos. Along tho wholo of this front, ox- tending, from north to south, upwards of 1,200 feot, 18 seon tha Duke's Italian tlower-garden, which is separatod from the parft by dwarf balus- trades; the two extromitics paneled on thesides, and of excollent mneonr{. Tho centro of tho gm;dan is ornnmented with a beautiful pond of wafer. Tho scone is ono of poculiarbenuty.

Ho camo straight up to Onk- land, across tho Waostorn States, and was aselst- od to cross tho Potomao by John Dailey, Esq., of tho Glades Hatel, At tho Glades ho kep bis homo at the- outset, and wore a palr of cen gogglos, Tho landlord rocog- nized him, and, fearing that ho would bo suspocted in this incognito, and, if arrosted, exocuted os o 6Dy, Auggostod that Lo dino at the publio tablo nnd face dangor bravely.

About n division of troops wore required to watch him and provent the de- struction of the Baltimore & Ohio Ruilroad. Ho know all the mountain-paths and places of seclu- sion from long familiarity, and, with Gilmore and Moby, comploted tho link of guerrilla history plong tho Potomac, Gilmore was a favorito neither of Mosby nor McNeill, who did not like, his mode of jurisprudence.
