THE CONSTITUTIONALIST IHURSDAT, August 5. 1875. Lord Byron ami llis Monument—The “Late Remorse of Love.” The relatives of Lord Byron seem averse to have anything done in the way of putting a suitable monument over his remains because they were denied the privilege of having him buried in Westminster Abbey. But, according to two registers kept at the grave of the Poet for 25 yeare which were bought of the Parish Clerk, at Hueknall, 30 years since, by a brother of Mr. Geo. A. Oates, in whose posses sion they now are, it seems there were many of his warm friends and admir : ers who had contrary views. The very last effusion brought forth by a visit to the Poet’s remains is this : NOVEMBER 17, 1847. The Hueknall bells are just ringing a peal. (My friends were then taking their grog) 1 can hardly express how indignant I feel i hat Lord Byron fares worse than his dog. Some day his remains will be honored, I trust, And a far nobler shrine be selected lime soon will render more precious his dust, And be like our Shakspeare’s respected. J. J. FAULKNER. The reference to the dog in the first stanza recalls the fact that Lord Byron placed a handsome monument over his dog, Boatswain. To show that his relatives were in no hurry to put a tablet of any kind over him, we quote from another part of the book, the first blank leaf of which is inscribed as follows: At this period no monument, not even a simple slab such as records the death of the humblest villager in the neighborhood, lias been erected to mark the spot in which all that i3 mortal of the greatest man of our day reposes, and now he has been buried more than twelve months. July, 1825. J. B. Alluding to the controversy between Lady Anne Blunt and Mr. Disraeli, the New York World closes an elegant article, on its .editorial page, with these appropriate words: “Hot as were the political passions of England at the time of Byron’s death, it is certain that neither the extreme liberality of the great poet’s religious opinions nor the license of his life could be decently pleaded against his admission into a sanctuary in which Tom Killigrew sleeps with St. Evermond and the second Charles with the two Villi - f.rses, Dukes of Buckingham. “It seems to us to be clearly due to the living representatives of Byron that their wishes should be respected in regard to the actual burial-place of the most famous of their race. But something is due also to the altered and bettered public sentiment of Great Britain about him; and we can really see no reason why the grandchildren of the poet should be allowed to prevent the erection of a becoming monument to him either in the form of a cenotaph within the “Poet’s Corner” of the Abbey or a statue in some public place of London. Byron’s personal beauty was such that any statue or bust of him which is not a caricature ought to be an ornament to any site which may be found for it. Dean Stanley, who delights in nothing so much as in an opportunity of showing the extreme liberality of his opinions on all sorts of subjects, would scarcely raise any scruples of an orthodox na ture against welcoming Byron into Westminster after making such haste as he did to secure the interment of Dickens within the sacred precincts. And there are at least a dozen beauti ful parks and squares in the British capital, in any one of which a worthy statue of the poet might be set up with great propriety.” In one of our exchanges we find, un credited, the subjoined remarks upon this theme, which go to demonstrate that there is retribution and compen sation even in this world: More than half a century ago a funeral cortege passed slowly along the road to the church of Hueknall, bearing in its van the coffin and coronet of a peer of the realm, who had added to the tinsel and tas sels of a long line of nobility the imperish able name of Byron, the greatest English poet of the nineteenth century. The grand and august Necropolis of men mighty in war, in council, and in the genius of prose and song, closed its inhospitable portals to all that remained of his mortality, and his roat was under the village altar, surround ed by a landscape of swelling mountains and sloping valleys made immortal by his verse. To him the repose of the grim Ab bey was nothing. When he traced the lines, . “I twine My hopes of being: remembered in my line With my land’s language,” there was a prophetic inspiration upon his soul. V ith the tongue and the literature his fame is eternally wedded; and in the present obscurity of many of his contem poraries, he remains undiminished in lus tre. It is now proposed to erect a statue to his memory in London. In the custom of mankind which gives such memorials to those worthy of its distinction, this is well; but neither Shakespeare, MiLton, nor By ron needs the aid of imitative art to rescue lrora oblivion the names of either. Some six yeirs ago, when Byron was in the sleep which followed his brief and fervid life, a publication was made in an American magazine, high in character and wide in dissemination. It purported to be an explanation of the causes of his most hapless domestic disaster. The writer was of a family honored and in broad repute. She was the authoress of a romance which had more to do with the murder of a mil lion of Americans and the saddling of labor with a debt of three thousand million of dollars, than perhaps any other devilish agency. But she and her brother, who aided her in her villainy, have got their re ward, even in this world. The secret pur ported to come from no less authority than the unhappy survivor. Lady Byron her self. It was in all of its surmises, for there were no facts and no proof, repugnant to loathing. It had not the slightest plausi bility for belief; on the contrary, proba bility was outraged in its absurdity of im putation. A woman with her heart de voured by an undying remorse, to which was added a religious fanaticism in itself almost an insanity, breathes out a wretched tale, which is hurriedly reduced to paper and given to the winds. The ex cuse for such a divulgence, even if true, is beyond any conceivable motive. And now how does that retribution, which does not wait for the trumpet and awakening of the day of judgment, come back to that transgressor in its terrible penalty! The avenging angel is among her own household gods. All Christendom is stirred by an alleged infamy, which stains the sanctity of the priest, the purity of the husband, and the honor of the man. This reckless aid ruthless libel upon a poet, who, sinning much, suffered equally in the universal law of compensation, rebounds harmlessly from the grave of the dead to the hearthstone of the living; and a shining light of the present genera tion is dim in an eclipse which may nevermore pass away. The ques tion of guilt after such a defense and subsequent defiance of public opinion as we have witnessed, does not appeal to sym pathy or propitiate severity of judgment. What may be the exact proportion of un believers in his innocence to the aggregate, is not important. It is large in count and overshadowing in intellect. To them the scarlet letter is lurid upon his breast, and the brand upon his forehead is the double brand of adultery and of perjury. Nor shouid it be without remark, in the righteousness of the general sen tence, that while revivi g regret seeks to do honor to a neglected name, maligned by this family, when the fame of its brightest figure is passing into a blight of condemnation for which there can be no human redemption, the marble and inscription in the metropolis of the world will recall one of the suprem est of “The dead, but sceptred sovereigns, who s till rule Our spirits from their urns.” For the living, not sitting in sackcloth, but pretending to scorn the world’s great sorrow, defiant of men’s verdict and flout ing the judgment of justice in haughty dis dain, wo need not seek to indicate the measure of the ransom which can redeem his soul. It passes from the human tribu nal to the final audit of God. A more signal rebuke to the Beecher family than this London testimonial to Lord Byron cannot be well imagined. It is true, as Mr. Disraeli intimates, that the noble bard will live as long as the Adriatic murmurs its soug, and the lair of Ravenna has an abiding place on earth. On every peak of the Appe nine and by the isles of the Siren his spirit shall survive. Upon the Athe nian Acropolis and where the “moun tains look on Marathon” he still lives. Each cape and promontory of the lands of song and story are his monuments— “ Andi no dim halo, all unknown before, Gilds the gray waste of Missilonghi’s shore.” Despite these facts, it is fitting that the men of this century should not allow Italy and Greece to own his spell entirely; and while his dust should re main by the side of his mother’s relics, a grand statue in the city of his birth would bo only a fitting tribute to one who, whatever his errors, can “only perish with the English language.” Book Notice. From W. T. Richards & Son, we have the July number of “The Forum,” a legal periodical issued simultaneously in New York, London, and Leipzig and a publication of unsurpassed profes sional excellence. It is particularly valuable for giving long in advance of the publication of the regular reports, the most important decisions of the Supreme Courts of the United States and of the several States, as also for noticing the chief legal developments in England and upon the Continent. Wharton, Redfield, Jameson, Lau rence and other jurists of that high stamp are among the contributors, and in the present number we particularly note an exhaustive article on Evidence —“always be sure of your evidence,” as per the great Maryland lawyer, Luther Martin— and a handsomely written pa per on the jurisdiction of law courts in church matters, a topic of rising value. We understand that the Commis sioners of Barnwell county will insti tute suit against a person in Barnwell village who has recently, under the signature of Carolinian, assailed them with charges which they deem libelous. In publishing these letters we disavow any intention of becoming mixed up in a purely local affair, and if any injustice has been done the Commissioners, we shall be pleased to rectify it, in any practicable way. PATHETIC, BUT GLORIOUS. Letter of a Brave Man and Worthy Judge Who Died for Law and Order. The Boston Journvl says : One of the most dastardly deeds ever perpetrated in a region distinguished for its law lessness was the recent murder of Judge E. F. Dwyer, at Granite, Luke county, Col. The Judge was a fearless and efficient man, and apparently the only one in the county with courage enough to oppose himself to the ruffian ism of the region. Recently some act of violence more than usually lawless was perpetrated, and the Judge promptly issued warrants for the arrest of the guilty parties. Immediately the worst elements of the population were aroused against him, and an armed mob of desperadoes, headed in person by the county Sheriff, seized the Judge by force while in court. On the way up the stairs of another building to which they were taking him the das tards fired four pistol shots at him from behind, killing him instantly. The victim of this most cowardly and brutal murder, while waiting in Court under guard of the mob, wrote the following tender and pathetic letter to his father, Rev. Mr. Dwyer, of Monument, Barnsta ble county, Mass., every line of which breathes a spirit of fearlessness and devotion, and shows the heroic nature of the man who was thus brought face to face with death: “Granite, July 3, 1875. “Dear Father —I don’t know that the sun will ever rise and set for me again or not, but I trust in God and His mercy. At 8 o’clock I sit in court. The mob have me under guard. Mr. Gil liland is missing this morning, but I eannot think harm has befallen him. God bless you, mv father, in your old age, and in Sam and his boy—in all your children —but you know John bears the name. Bless him and his forever. Omy God! “My love to all friends and say I am proud to be your son. There is no cowardice in me, father. lam worthy of you in this respect. God comfort you and keep you always. lam in this one respect like Him who died for all; I die, if die I must, for law, order, and principle, and, too, I stand alone. Your loving and true, and, I hope in some respects, worthy son, Elias F. Dwyer.” “Dear Carrie,” she wrote, “to-mor morrow I am going to the Branch, and I do so long to revel in the billowy em braces of the ocean,” The young bride does not leave the altar with more de licious expectation than that with which this young enthusiast for the first time entered the surf. Within four minutes, however, after making the fateful plunge, she had turned fourteen involuntary somersaults, got a piece of clam-shell in her right eye, had the skin rubbed off both her shoulder-blades, being stood on her head seventeen times, was finally res cued and hauled up the bluff in a comatose state, and has been spitting sand, at intervals, ever since. PILLS AND POWDER. Bloody Work Between Physicians at Cyntliania, Ky.—Two Vacancies in the Medical Profession. [Cynthania, Ky., Special (July 29) to the Cin cinnati Enquirer. A terrible double tragedy occurred here this evening, in which Dr. E. J. Peckover and C. L. Donnally were both killed. It seems that they had an al tercation yesterday about some pecu niary matters, and Peckover called Donnally a liar. But nothing serious was thought of the matter until this evening. About 5 o’clock, Dr. Donnally was near Dr. Peckover’s office door, when, Peckover coming out, Dr. Donnally called to him and said: “You called me a liar yesterday.” and as Dr. Peck over turned around facing him, Don nally deliberately shot Peckover, the ball passing through the heart, killing him almost instantly. Donnally imme diately gave himself up, Deputy Mar shal H. T. Hoffman and Constable James Ewalt taking charge of him. About a quarter before six o’clock, while he was still in charge of the offi cers and in the County Judge’s office awaiting his preliminary trial, R. H. Ridgely, a brother-in-law of Dr. Peck over, rushed into the room, drew a pistol, fired and killed Donnally in stantly. Ridgely is now in custody. Peckover, wnen shot, said to someone near by, “Donally has shot me.” At the shooting of Donnally there were but three persons in the Judge’s office—the Judge himself and the two officers before named. The crowd had gone out and were standing around in the yard. Donnally was shot in the left side of the upper part of the abdo men, four inches from the navel. When shot he fell over out of the chair he was sittiug in, exclaimed, “ Oh, God ! ” and died. Both of the victims were men highly respected, and both were Masons, Peckover being a Knight Templar of high rank. The tragedy has cast a gloom over the city, and is greatly to be regretted, as this city has for many years enjoyed the name of being one of the most orderly and quiet towns in Kentucky. Ridgely is iu jail, and will probably have his examination to-morrow morn ing. Dr. Peckover has a young daughter visiting at the residence of J. M. Black burn, late of Covington, now living near Florence, Ky. Word was sent her of the sad fate of tier father this evening. —i England’s Overflowing Coft'ers. [London Times.] The United States has been pouring iu its precious metal until we have got over 3}4 millions more of it this year than for the first six months of last, and this, although the balance of trade in other commodities is from one to two millions more against us there now than then—hence, also, the fact that there has been no corresponding drain for other countries. Many nations have sent us less than they are wont to do, but on the other hand many have wanted less. The gold that has come here has therefore mostly lain here; and we have had full coffers when commercial bubbles begin to burst at home. As we hinted the other day, this is not a state of affairs likely to last. Not only are rates for money beginning to rise on the continent, but they are falling here below a point at which it can be to anybody’s profit to send us gold. It is not likely that other peo ple’s trade may be reviving, as ours begins to recede. And this makes the situation of our money market less satisfactory than it superficially seems to be. We are just apparently en tering upon that period o'f depressed trade and cautious contraction of business from which other countries have suffered so long. Thanks to the freedom, and, we may say, looseness with which the vast credits at the com mand of our banking institutions have been dispensed to all and sundry, we passed apparently without scathe through the time when other countries were in distress. Money never got so dear as to destroy the fragile structure on which our security rested, and it was supposed that we got off scot-free. Such a notion cau no longer be enter tained; and the numerous failures we have had must indubitably usher in a period of dull trade were it for no other reason than tjjat they compel banks to stop indiscriminate lending. Mr. Beecher’s Substitute Described by Ex-Brother Joe Howard.— -The Rev. Mr. Julian, of New Bedford, preached yesterday to large congrega tions in Plymouth Church. Mr. Julian’s manner in prayer is not felicitious. He stands on one leg and wriggles the other. He feels of ids moustache, leans on his elbow and coddles his whisker, none of which please the people, how ever it may please the august person age he is supposed to address. Doubt less the “Lord is nigh to all who come to Him in truth,” but ho prefers to have them stand on both feet and pay attention to what’s going on. Imagine Mr. Julian in the presence of Queen Victoria, Sammy Tlluen, or even New Bedford’s Mayor on a public occasion, leaning on his elbow, playing with his chin and delivering a public petition ! It’s absurd.— Star. - -i • —— The Lebanon Herald says the editor of that paper “lost §35 Monday,” and wants a subscription among his friends.
