WDDNESDAT MORNING, SEPT, 22,1869
Byron’s Memory.
OBSERVATIONS OF MR. WIT,MAM HOWITT.
lo the Editor of the London Daily News :
Beiug temporarily at this distance from
town, and, therefore, not seeing all that
may have appeared in *the newspapers re
garding Mrs. Beecher Stowe’s extraordi
nary attack on the memory of Lord Byron,
I hope that I may have been forestalled in
some of my observations ou the subject of
good old English fair-play, especially to
vyard the dead. But I do not feel that I
should be justified in my conscience if I did
S' Don such an occasion state some fiacts
ich my personal knowledge of Lady By
ron made familiar to me. 1 knew her fqr
sorpe years, and visited her at her bouse in
town, at tier Summer residence at Rich
mond, at Eton, aud met her at her son-iu
law’s (Lord Lovelace), at Ockham. She
also visited us at Esher and Highgate. I
am sure that Lady Byron was a woman of
the most honorable and conscientious in
tentions, but she was subject to a constitu
tional idiosyncracy of a most peculiar.kind,
which rendered her, when under its influ
ence, absolutely and persisteutly unjust. I
am quite sure, from my own observation
of her, that when seized by this peculiar
condition of the nerves, she was helplessly
under its control. Through this the
changes in her mood were sudden, and most
painful to all about her. I have seen her
of an evening in the most amiable, cordial
and sunny humor, full of interest and sym
pathy ; and I have seen her the next morn
ing come down as if she had lain all night,
not on a feather bed, but on a glecier—
frozen as it were to the very soul, and no
efforts on the part of those around hot
could restore her for the day to a genipr 1
social warmth. In such moments she
seemed to take sudden impres
sions against persons and things, which,
though the worst might pass away, left a
permanent effect. Let me give ah distance
or two.
Lady Byron was at the period I speak of
deeply interested in the establishment of
working schools for the education of chil
dren of the laboring glasses.’ She induced
Lord Lovelace to erect oue at Ockham; she
built one on her estate at Kirby Mallory,
in Leicestershire. On one occasion, in one
of her most amiable moods, she asked me
to lunch with her in town, that we might
discuss her plans for the system of educa
tion. She promised to arrange that we
should not be interrupted for some hours.
I went at the time fixed ; but, to my-con
sternation, found her in one of her frozen
fits. The touch of her hand was like that
of death ; in her manner there was the
silence of the grave. We sat down to lun
cheon by ourselves, and I endeavored to
break the ice by speaking of the incidents
of the day- It was in vain. The devil of
the North Pole was qpon her, and J
billy extract icy monosyllables. When we.
returned.to the drawing room I sought to
interest her in the topic on which we Jukd
met, and which she had so truly at heart*
It was hopeless. She said she felt unable
to go into it, and I was glad to get away.
Again, she was in great difficulty as to
the selection of a master for her working
school »t Kirby Mallory. It was necessary
for-him to unite the'very rarely united
qualities of a thoroughly practical knowl
edge of the operations of agriculture and
gardening with the education aqd infqrma
piqu of an accomplished schoolmaster. She
gsked me to try and discover tills raia di'is
tor her. I knew exactly such a man in
Nottinghamshire, who was at the same
time thoroughly honorable, trustworthy
and fond of teaching. At her urgent re
quest I prevailed on him to give up his
then comfortable position aud accept her
offer. For a time he was everything in her
eyes that a man and a schoolmster could
be. ■ She was repeatedly speaking of him
When we met in the most cordial terms.
Sri-tUeehlii Constitutionalist.
But in the course, as I remember, of two
or three years, the poor fellow wrote to me
in the utmost distress, saying that Lady
Byron, without the slightest intimation of
being in any way dissatisfied with him, or
with his management of the school, had
given him notice to quit. He had entreat
ed her to let him know what was the cause
of this sudden dismissal. She refused to
give any, and he entreated me to write to
her and endeavor to remove her displeas
ure, or to ascertain its cause. I felt, from
what I had seen of Lady Byron before, that
it was useless. I wrote to’ him, “ Remem
ber Lord Byron ! If Lady Byron has taken
into her head that you shall go, nothing
will turn her. Go you must, and you had
better prepare for it.” And the poor fel
low, with a family of about five children,
and his old situation filled up, turned out
Into the world to comparative ruin.
Now, apply the spirit of these facts to
Lady Byron’s separation from her husband,

an»l to her conduct since. In all the ac
coiMßs received from Lord Byron, by Lady
Blessiifgton, by Moore, Ijry Oapt. Medwin,
Byron islpade ou aU occasions, and to the
last, to knew the cause
why Lady Byron separated from him
Mrs. Stowe says that Byron iriainaqner
drove her from his house. I believe,
all the accounts of this controversy bear
that impression, that the simple fact was
that Byron earnestly urged her to go to
her father and endeavor to obtain money
to get the sheriff’s officers out of the house,
which the announcement of his having
married a great heiress had brought upon
him. On the way, Moore says, on Byron’s
authority, she wrote to him in an affec
tionately playful humor; and Capt. Med
win, on Byron’s authority too, says, open
ing her note, with the phrase, “ Dear
Duck.”- There can be little doubt that the
cause of her altered conduct was from her
datlier representing that Byron would run
Through her fortune, and she must leave
him, backed up by some, such odious story
by Lady Noel, and her woman, Mrs.
Charlemont, as Mrs. Stowe gives. How
ever, Byron asserts that all his entreaties
were vain to induce Lady Byron to assign
a reason for her separation.
Lady Byron has been highly praised for
her silence on this subject, as a noble reti
cence, a refusal ou her part to make charges
against her husband, which would necessa
rily stigmatize her own child, and sequent
•y her own grandchildren. But, mark!
No sooner was Byron dead, having left a
carefully written memoir in his own justi
fication, than Lady Byron sought to buy
this up. She, in fact, never ceased her ex
ertion till she had procured the destruc
tion of her husband’s own carefully pre
pared defense. No sooner was this ac
complished, no sooner had she stifled his
posthumous cries fora fair hearing by the
public, than, if we are to believe Airs.
Stowe, she proceeds to blast his character
to all posterity, by not merely whispering
into the ear charges of the most damnable
and revolting nature, but she puts these
into writing. What, I ask then, is become
of the noble reticence and fort>earahCe of
Lady Ifyron? Can the English public, can
any honorable person, sanction for a mo
ment, a proceeding of this nature? Can
any one be allowed to destroy the evi
dence of their opponents, and then proceed
to litter the vilest charges against them ?
It is no questiou with me what may have
lieen the amount of Lord Byron’s crimes ;
but I assert that the moment that Lady
Byron deprived her deceased husband of
the opportunity of self-justification, she de
prived heriself of every right to advance
fresh charges against him. Her lips and
her pen were sealed up by the most inex
orable justice from uttering not simply as
sertions without proof, as In the present
case, but even the most thoroughly evi
denced facts in the cause between them.—-
This, lam certain, will be the ultimate
verdict of the British public, or it must
abandon the noble spirit of equity which
lias distinguished it in every age of its na
tional existence. It would do this in the
case of its meanest citizeh, much more in
that of one of its erring but most illus
trious poets. I am, &c.,

Crop Prospects tn Virginia— A letter
from Louisa county, Va., gives a glootny
account of the effhctfi of the recent drought
which still continues. It is believed that
the crop of corn this year will average
from one-third to one-fourtli of the usual
quantity made on the land. The land lias
been so dry that very little if any fallowing
has been done. Some farmers will begin to
cut tobacco this week. The judges say
that the tobacco crop this year will be of a
very inferior quality, and in quantity will
be but little more than one-third of what
was made last year. Many farmers who
planted from fifteen to twenty thousamjg
plants last Spring will not make more
an average of one hundred poumbfper acre.

that the farmers can give them no eraploy-

groes are beginning to fear that there will
M*ofc be any work for them next year. Many
farmers do not expect to employ hands
next year, as they will not have provisions
to feed them. A majority of the mill creeks
in Louisa and Spotsylvania are dried up.
Dr. Collins, the Murderer op
Hougiiey.— We learn from the Huntsville
Democrat that the preliminary examination
of Dr. Collins, for the killing of Hbifghey 1 ,
at Cburtlaud, Ala., ill July last, after"a te
dious hearing before five magistrates of
that place, lasting two weeks, was brought
to a close on Friday Os last week, and re
sulted in liis committal. He has been
placed iu the jail at Huntsville fofrsafety,
to await trial before the Circuit Court of
Lawrence county. Bail was denied him.
He will possibly pay the penaltv of his
crime upon the gallows, and Alabama will
have gotten rid of two enemies of good so
ciety in Collins and Houghey.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
THE FEVER AND AGUE SEASON.
When the leaves begin to change, remittent and in
termittent fevers make their appearance. From the
surface of the earth, bathed nightly in heavy dews,
fiom marshes and swamps surcharged with moisture,
from the dying foliage of the woods, from festering
pools and sluggish streams, the sun of September
evolves clouds of miasmatic vapor, perilous lo health
and life. The hotly, deprived by the burning temper
ature of July and August of much ofila vigor and
elasticity, is not in a proper plight to resitt malaria;
and hence all diseases that are produced by a depraved
condition of the atmosphere are particularly preva
lent in the Fall.
There i« no reason why the health of thousands of
people should be thus snrifteed. A preparatory
course of HOBTETTKR’B STOMACH BITTERS
is a certain protection against ibe epidemics and en
demics which Autumn brings in its traiD. Let all
dwellers in unhealthy localities, liable to such visits*
tions, give heed to the warning and advice conveyed
in tills advertisement, and they may bid defiance to
the foul exhalations which are now rising, night and
day, from the soil around them. No farm house in the
land should he without this invaluable exbilarant aud
invigorant at any period of the year, but especially in
the Fall. It is not safe logo forth into tire chill, misty
atmospheie of a September morning or eyenii g with
the stomac h unfortified by a tonic, and of all the
tonics which medical chemistry his jet given to the
world, HOSTETTKIDS BITTERS are admitted to
be the purest, the most wholesome, and the most ben
eticial.
Let ail who desire to escape the billious attacks,
bowel complaints and malarious fevers, take the
BITTRItH at least twice a day throughout the present
season. It is as wlfoiesome as it is lnfahible. Look
to the trademark, * fitIBTKTTKIt’S STOMACH
BITTERS,” engraved ou the label and embossed on
the bottle, and iheir revenue stamp covering the cork
as counterfeits and imitations abound.

IJpGS to make known to his friends and the general public, that-lie has now on
Jai’ aUd making constant additions, one of the Largest, Most Varied aud Best Select
eJßtocks of DRY GOODS, for the Fall and Winter Trade of 1869, thajt hks" ever been '
tMrFteißity. „ . . ■%? J
•w. J
The stock will always be found to consist of a Pall, Line of all Goods to be met
with in a First Class Dry Goods House, and I pledge myself that the high reputation
ie house lias already attained shall be more than sustained.
Residing permanently in New York, and purchasing solely from the Manufacturers
aud Agents, exclusively for cash, with an experience extending over twenty-five years
in. the Dry Goods Market, as buyer aud retailer, I am confident of being able to offer
Goods, both in Styles and at Prices, which must in truth compete with any house iu the
ootith.
An examination of Stock and Prices, by customers, cannot fail to convince them of
the truth of what I state. -
