The wealth of the Vanderhills, at no
very distant day, came to Southern com
prehension with a rerr remote aignifi
eanee, something to be heard of, to lie
womlereil at, perhaps to be envied; but
ao far a way in its splendors and influences ,
as to lie looked upon at il tbe display of
those phenomenal Northern Lights, whose
coruscations illuminate the northern sky,
hut rarely enlighten with leeblcr (low
the more sombre hue of the southern
heavens. The vast neciiinulationi ot the
Vanderbilts, as well as those of the larger
number of northern millionaires, wen
mane at home, mnused at Home, enjoy -.
at home. The south could not expect to
share in the bounties of those exuber
ant fortunes; only perhaps tube refreshed
by the casual droppings of a southern
tour, or the incidental expenditure of j
pleasure, erhaps business, explorations, j
And it is from these casual causes, i
rather than from designed purpose, that
one of llie Vnmlcrbilts (icorne, resolved
to ripply some ot his T.iKt resources to
wise, nohle, and more generous purposi-
I than in the erection of splctnlid city pal
aces, or costly Newport cottages, or new
ailroiul entrrprics or other means o!
swelling his already vast fortune. Per
haps in his heart were emotions thai
were not in harmony with wealth atone
some touches ot nature through which
. the heaulies of the hiudsca)c, the hreal h j
of the untainted atmosphere, wish lor se
clusion from I he restless crowd, made ap
teal for rest anil grateful solitude,
How It HapiM'tivd,
In one ol his visitt ti Asheville, North
Carolina, from Itis luxurious environ
ments, in the flattery Park hotel, t'.eore
Vauderbilt sought recreation in rides and
drives through the surrounding countiy .
To these he was temi.ted bv the outlook '
Irom the verandas of the hotel. Mis eye
swept over valley and hill, over held and

the thought was horn and the purpose
tiled ti turn Ins wealth to those gentle, '
vet tiowcrlul, uses that would bring in
lieautiful accord the graces of art and the
, rucged charm ol nature. Hvideutlv thej
views of Mr. Vauderbilt were us vast as
were his means to give them direction
'and form. He needed space, he must j
hare variety of surlnce, he must control
commanding points ul view: above all,
as indispensable to Ins purpose, he must
have an unobstructed elbow room

plans Not only were large bodies of the
native uncleared forests purchased but
innnv a hillside farm and verdant vallrv

; There is nothitiK remarkable in the
'ownership bv one individual of so large

western North Carolina men may lie
