A London morning paper says, that “the Christian portion of die British pub lic will learn with satisfaction , that the Dean of Westminster lias concurred with the Dean if St. Paul's in refusing p *.rmis sion to a club of the professed admirers of Lord Byron, to erect a monument to his memory in Westminster Abbey.” It i9 urged as a reason fordoing so, that, “if the dignitaries of the Church wish to main tain and uphold religion, they’ most not hold up to public honor or general imita tion, such a character as Lord Byron And shall it be told, at this enlightened era of Christendom, that the honorary dis tinction of a niche in V estminster Abbey, his been withheld from the memory of Byron, when it has been awarded to thousands, who, if compared with him, would be ‘Hyperian to a Satyr!’ to thousands, —‘whose blood Has crept thro 4 rascals ever since the flood'... It must be so—for the Christian dignita taries of an exclusive f a itli have said i 1 !

Why, forsooth, in the miserable and unholy farce of Church and State, which the caustic wit of the ‘noble bard’ held up to public ridicule and ■execration; and in his denunciations of that time-serving hypocrite and unblush ing apostate, Robert Southey! That Byron had his frailties we readily admit; and would to God we could cover them with the mantle of oblivion!—But who is faultless?—and how many of the Sages of antiquity whom we are taught to venerate, can present such a splendid ar ray of redeeming qualities, both of head and heart, as those which embellish his bright hut erratic career? Posterity is always ready to consecrate with a deathless renown, the memory of benefactors to Genius, Benevolence, and Patriotism. The mean, sordid, and jeal ous feelings of contemporaneous Rivalry are unknown to her. To her has been con rfided the memory of Byron—she has him i in her holy keeping—and will give to his name an obelisk higher than the proudest monument that rears its head in West minster Abbey. After all, what is this magnificent Mau soleum but an airy nothing?—lt is indeed questionable, if Byron himself could be consulted, whether he would accept even the gratuitous offer of a “storied urn” in the Abbey. IJe might say, “1 am not am bitious of the honor you intend me—Go there, and you will hear “liie death bed call To him who robb’d the widow, and devour'd The orphan's portion; of unquiet souls Jtis‘n from the grave to ease the heavy guilt Os deeds in life conceal'd; of shapes that walk At dead of night, and clank their chains, and wave - The torch of hell around the murd'rer's led.’’ CREEK LYDLLVS. The last Columbus Enquirer informs us, that Col.

As soon a- Crowell has relieved them of then small change, he will, no doubt, permit Col. B. to accomplish the object of bis mission.

The returns of votes given at the late election for members of Congress, have been in so many instances illegally made, as to exclude about a fit!lt ol the whole nuinb*r. This should sen e as a caution for the future to those who have the super iutendcnce ol elections. The deleclive returns are generally I om counties having election districts, in which the vote of one or more ot those has been lost from inat tention or want of information in the per sons making the returns, which should be in strict compliance with law In some cases we understand the persons presid ing at the elections did not certify the re turns at all—in other instances their cer tificate was incorrect, and in many cases the list of voters did not accompany the returns. From two counties, Thomas ami Lowndes, the re'urns “ere not made within the time prescribed bv law. The necessary rejection by the Executive of such returns as were not legally made, does not in this instance change the result, as regards the individuals elected, from what it would have been, if all had been) correctly made—though such might have been the case, if the nu n'oer of votes re ceived by the numerous candidates had been more nearly equal. The following exhibits the whole nuni ber given to each candidate, with the por tion embraced by the returns not made according to law: Total. Defective. Counted.

We last week published an extract of a letter from Texas, mentioning the murder of an individual by the name of Early, by the notorious Isaac B Desha. We an since informed of a remarkable coinci dence with regard to the two individuals. It is well known that Desha was the murderer of Francis Baker, in Kentucky, and the son of the Governor of that State: it is also supposed that Early was the son of Governor Early of this State. About two years since young Early murdered an individual in Georgia—a proclamation was made and a reward offered for him by the Executive, and it is not until now that we have since heard of him.

We understand from the fanners that great havoc is eve t y where made and making by those mischievious animals Squirrels. They were never seen in so great numbers before. A gentleman of veracity informed us, a day or two ngo, that he killed upwards of 300 in and about his field in one day, and that the next morning they appeared as numerous as ever. They are seen constantly swim ming backwards and forwards across the Wabash, Ohio, arid Mississippi rivers, and are killed by the b >ys and sportsmen in great numbers, at their landings. It is a new fact, to us, in thp natural histoiy of these animals, that they should swim riv ers from a mile to a mile and a half in width, but it is every clay verified by the eyes of our inhabitants.
