Not far from Monticello, ariuivithin the bounds of , his estate, was a solt tarvTjxnd lofty, hill, so situated as to be exposed to-the Jblast- of two currents of wind, coming up through valleys on different sides of it.- Mr. Jei rSTrir, thought this would be an admirable posi tioVfor a wind-mill ; and Having recently invent ctl a . model for a sawmill, to bo moved by ver ticil sails, he sent for an engineer, and submitted it tpidis judgment.- The man of professional sci-; efictv examined the plan, and ' listened w ith pro-fourrd'atteritioa-and deference la Mr. Jefferson's explanations of it, and to his eloquent illustration of rrTetid vantages it would secure. Having heard hirnhrcughr and being asked by the philosopher; "Vwifat he thought of it ?" he replied, with great suicelity, that it' was a mo;t ingenious idea, find waecidedly'the best plan for a saw mill he had ejer S&cri, j elfersorf was delighted, and fortlw y. entrixd iuto a written'-agreement for the erect pn of such a mill On tliQ neighboring height.
