Mar? Chvrorl!i.
A correspondent of the New ork Courier
and Enquirer who id travelling in England
writes under date of Nottingham Jtt'ie 21 us
follows:
. "BjronV grnvc at Hucknall and Nnwstcnd
Abbey ore object" ofiulerest.ln me. mid nf-
irr a knc'ihoiicd stay st Sheffield. 1 took an
iiuisi'k' pKt on the stngo for Mn'nsfieltl from
which dace I proceeded on foot. The road
lay through a succession of scenery such 33
meets the eye only in England; and which
greet the traveller with iittle variation
throughout itiis southern p'irt of the British
lalnnd. Chesterfield on this route is re-
tnsrknb'Ie for the singular sjitro on the old
chiircli which reminds otic of the learning
lower of Pisa Itis constructed of wood and
although nearly straight Ii bfiilt so as to ap-
pear froni any point of vicvf as if it were lean-
ing at an angle of fifteen or twenty degrees.
Between this town and Mansfield there ore
two celebrated castle? one the old palace
of Hardwick. the other the ancient baronial
tronghold of Boisover. In the centre of the
main square of the last named town there is
a fine Gothic monument to the memory of
Lord Georjre Bcntick a young English no-
Blenien who died a lew years ago at a time
When he was rapidly rising to cininencn as a
statesman in the British Houso of Farlia-
menf. Having strapped my knapsack on my back
1 left Mansfield and took the turnpike road
to Derby the nearest way to Hucknall. The
day was warm and pleasant and my route lay
over a moor once a part of Sherwood Forest.
The road fbr some distance was very indiffer-
ent and equalle ns bad us any in the United
States. For miles there were but tew houses
within eight and wild shrubbery and yellow
MossomTng furze grew in abundance along
the highway. The soil was sandy and poorly
oultivatcd where cultivation was attempted. -I
wnlked a distance of nine miles over lands
once the haunts of Robin Hood and his "mer-
rie foresteis;" Bi:d in some places the wood
was so thick and extensive (hat it did not re-
quire a very active imagination to people
them with the descendants of the bold outlaw
nnd his followers. Groves of fir and pines in-
terspersed with clumps of magnificent oaks
whose branches shad wowed all the wild form-
ed a cool retreat and pleasant shade for the
weary traveller.
I stopped at the toll gate to enquire the
nearest way to the village of Hucknall and
was directed through a park immediately be-
fore me. It was a broad and highly pictur-
esque landscape on whose verdant surface
rYu'mbers of deer were feeding. Groves of gi-
ant oaks ciowned the surrounding hills and
the soft summer winds were rich with the
scent of new mown hay. As I slowly wended
rhy way along the paths the scenery became
familiar and there was no difficulty in recog-
nizing it from Byron's writings;. There was
The "gentle hill" on which he was wont to
rnnet with her who was the object of his war-
mest and holiest love and where his youlh-
fol soul first felt how keen a sting was that
of unrequited passion. It still was
"Green and of mild declivity the last
As't were the cape of a Ions ridge of such
S.ve that there was no sea to lave its base
But a most living landscape "
but the "trees of circular array" were gone anJ
the spot whereon the "youth and the maiden"stood
was no longer shade! by the broad branches of the
oaks from within w ho-e shadow she watched
"Looking afar if yet her lover's steed
Kept pace with her expectancy and flevr."
The summer winds waved the grass upon the
summit Of the hill and Annesley Park the birth-
place and patrimony of Mary Chawortli looked as
enehaniin'gly on that day as 'f sorrow had never en-
tered its' borders.
I turned towards Iluck nail a poor straggling
hamlet with but few collages and oaly famous as
the burial place nf the Byrons. The church was
the principal spot I caied to visit and after depos-
iting my knapsack at the inn and sending for the
clerk I entered die building. There was a compa-
ny of English tourists already there and their levi-
ty was unbecoming to s3y the least of it. The po-
et when alive never eniertained a fluttering opinion
of his countrymen and bis dust would hare crept
had he known ihat some of them were laughing
and jesting over his grave. The interior of the
Church is in great disorder and like the rest of tie
building old and decayed. The vault wherein the
poet lies buried is covered with two large slabs of
rough stone clumsily Cited together and the floor
around which is of the same material is broken
and irregular.
A plain white marble table bearing an inscrip-
tion to the poet's memory is fitted in the wall and
surrounded by a black borierl It is immediately
over the vault: and beneath it there is a coal of
arms cut in stone with the motto "Crede Byron"
and this is the tomb of the author of "Childe Har-
old!" He reposes among his ancestors aid near
the last resting place of her who bore him. Oppo-
site to the poet's tomb is a stone bearing a long in-
scription to the services and worth of a Byron who
adhered to the cause of Charles the First in the
days ot that monarch's misfortune.
The English company soon left the church and
after (liev were gone I stood forsome time medita-
ting on the changes and troubles of the life of him
whose ashes were beneath my feet. A beautiful
young girl of seventeen summers with an "eye as
blue as heaven'" and a face expressive of sinless pu-
rity was my guide. She was the daughter of the
Parish Clerk and during her father's absence wai-
ted on strangers to the tomb. I recorded my name
in a book she kept for visitors and on looking over
it noticed the names of a great number of Ameri-
cans. 1 asked her if she saw many of my country-
men to which she replied in the affirmative. More
of them visit Hucknall than of any other foreigners
and all of them take great interest in every thing
relating to Byron. "Has Lady Byron ever been
here!" I asked. No' said she "not in nty recollec-
tion; but last surxftner Lady Lovelace was here By-
ron's daughter. She came with Mrs. Wildinan
the lady of the present occupant of Newstead Ab-
bey. When she came in she burst into a flood of
. tears and wept long and audibly. It was aa affec-
ting scene sir and I could not help but weep with
her. She stood somo time leaning over the vault
against the tablet and sighed as though her very
heart would break. Aye sir she loved her father
and could ke have seen her and known her affec-
tion for him he would havo been a better and a hap-
pier man. She never came but once to the grave
and then it was a difficult thing to get her away.
T believe she grew ill inconsequence of grief after
that visit and it was deemed prudeiit not to renew
it."
But few of the Byron family visit the poet's
gtave and with the exception of his sister
and daughter none remain more than a few
minutes. Strangers however
Whose wandering feel have pressed
The Switzers's snow the Arab's aind
And trod the piled leaves of the West
My own green native land.'
have mndcit the Mecca of their pilgrimages
nnd gonn thousands of miles to pay hntlmgc
to the dust of him whoso genius and writing
have shed undying lustre 00 English litera-
ture. The road from Hucknnll to Newstead Ab
bey lies through n wood as wild as some of
our Aincrtrnn forests. It Is arched with the
brunches and foliage of trees for more than n
mile and several limpid streams cross it
while frequent footpaths lead off at different
points into the deep" shade of the trees. At
the end of the wood it runs over a gentlv
sloping lull from the top of which the turrets
nnd Gothic ruin of the Abbey burst upon the
view. Thero is the lake and every lent tire
of the landscape as de.-cribed by Byron. rj he
old chancel window is intertwined with ivy
and the walls look as it they would brave time
and its storms for a thousand years. The
building stands in a quiet valley "surrounded
by hills and
'I.irs perhaps a liule low
Becau se those monks preferred a hill.hehind
To shelter their devotion frem lbs Wins.'
Thegrounds arc laid out tastefully and there
arc severe! gardens benring mimes according
to the country from which the flowers plant-
ed in them cumo. One is called tlie Atneii-
can Garden and there grows luxuriantly our
wild honeysuckle and ihododendron. The
oak planted by Byron i9 sdiown as one of the
curiosities of the placer and in the 'devil's
wood' a deep impenetrable shade there is a
tree with two trunks dear to the poet and his
sister on wincli lie cut the following inset ip-

Tho bark lias grown over the record j'nnd
great difficulty is experienced in decyph'rin"
the dale. A natural arbor formed of the
brant lies of oaks and overhanging ivy is poin
ted to as the 'Monks' Walk;' mid a pure
crystal spring called the holy well. claims the
visitor's attention. Boatswain's tomb is al-
ways "visited but beyond the halo thrown
over it by the genius of Byron there is noth-
ing attractive about it.
The celebrated epitaph is almost defaced
and it was only by supplying from memory
the obliterated portions that I was able to
read it. After two or tree hours spent in
rambling about Newstead and the lands adja-
cent I returned to Hucknall from whence 1
journeyed on to Nottingham having walked
thirty miles during tho day. A long but
pleasant ramble and one of the most inter-
esting I ever had.
Beloiv Nottingham on the Trent here a
pretty and romantic stream there is a large es-
tate known as Colwich Hull. It is the proper
tyofthe Musters 'family and the burial place
of .Mary Chaworth. During the reform riots
in town some years ago. at which time Not-
tingham Castle was burned the mob set fire
to Colwich Hall but did not destroy it. Mrs.
Musters was driven from the house nnd took
refuge in the woods on the estate. From the
fright and exposure during the night she con-
tracted a fever which soon terminated her
existence. She is buried in Colwich Church
an old ivy clad edifice immediately adjacent
to the hall and her tomb is an object of fre-
quent visits by tourists. She left fuur chil
dren two of whom are living one of them
a daughter now married the other a son; a
clergyman of the established Church. The
eldest who would have been heir to the joint
estates of herself and husband died a few
years ago leaving a son who by death of
bis grand father is lord of the manors 01 An-
nessley and Colwich.
The elder Musters was a great huntsman
and from all accounts very much nf u brute
He was a tyrant to the poor which explains
the visit of the mob to his hall. It is cur-
rently reported in Nottingham that he frequen
ly used personal violence toward his wife and
mors ffiarr once beat her severely. He died
about fiio months ago on his own estate not
much regretted but n good deal despised and
now lies buried at the side of his wife in his
family vault at Colwich Church. Such is a
portion of the unwritten history of two being
who have been immortalized by tho writings
and passion of Byron; and it is strange that
their destinies should have been so varied and
the life of the one so unhappy.'
Beautiful Extract. Wc possess a geno
me fragment which Cicero has preserved to
us from a lost work of Aristotle. It runs thus:
"If there were beings who lived in the depths
ol the earth in dwellings adorned with stut-
ues and paintings and everything which is
possessed in rich abundance by those whom
wc esteem fortunate and il these beings could
receive tidings of the power and might of the
Gods and could then emerge from their hid-
den dwellings through the open fissures of the
earth to the pfnees which we inhabit; if they
could suddenly behold the earth and the sea
and the vault of heaven; could they recog-
nise the expanse of the cloudy firmament and
the might of the winds of heaven nnd admire
the sun in its majesty beauty and radi.int
efiolgence; nnd lastly when night veiled the
earth in darkness could they behold the star-
ry heavens the changing moon and the start
rising and setting in the unvarying course or-
dained from eternity; thev would surety ex-
claim "there are Gods and such great thing
must be the work nf their hands. " It has just-
ly hern observed that this passage is alone
sufficient to corroborate Cicero's opinion of
"the eoldtn tlow of Jlnslotlc't eloquence" and
thai his worhs are pervaded by something of
the' inspired force of Plato s genius. Such a
testimony to the existence of the heavenly
powers drawn from the beauty and stupen-
dous greatness of the works of creation is
rarely to be met with in the works of antiqui-
ty Humboldt's Kosmos.
Execution. George Pharaoh was executed a:
West Chester (Pa.) on FriJay for the murder of
Rachel Sharpless committed on the 28th of Sept.
last.- The crime was perpetrated by Pharaoh shoo-
ting her dead with a gun while she was unlocking
the school house door at West Goshen. Chester
couniy she being a te3.-.her there. Pharaoh was
suspected of the crime Ircm having been seen in
the vicinity with his gnn and this suspicion was
rendered a certainty by finding that the wadding us
ed on the occasion matched z turn copy of the Sat-
urdavEvening Post which was found m his pos-
session when arrested.
His sole motive for the commission of tho
deed if his own confession is to he believed
was to obtain a gold watch belonging to the
deceased. The mother of PJraroah was sis-
ter of Jabez Boyd who was hung at West-
chester on the 21st of November J315 for
the murder of Wesley Patton a lad Pha-
raoh was hung on the same gallows with the

LONDONAT M IDNIGHT.
Mr. Greely in one of his recent letters to
the New York Tribune says:
Walking home from n soiree at the Wcst-
end.through Regent street Ilnymnrket and
the Strand once at midnight 1 was struck
though accustomed to all manner nf lute
hours in New Yoik with the relative activity
and wide awake aspect of London at that
hour. It seemed the High 'Change of rev
elry and pleasure seek ing". The tavern3 the
clubs and drinking-shops betrayed no symp-
toms of diowsines.-.; thplheatu-s were bnrcly
beginning to emit their jaded multitudes the
cabs and private carriages were moro plenti-
ful than by dnr and were briskly wheeling
hundreds from patty to party; even the om-
nibusses rattled down the wide streets a'
freshly nnd almost as numerously as at mid-
day. The policemen were alert on neaily
overy corner; sharpers and suspicious char-
acters stepped nimbly about the cross streets
in quest of prev and innumerable wrecks of
womanhood God pity them! sh -d n deeper
darkness over the shaded and du-ky lanes and
byways whence they momently emerged to
salute the pascr by. Beneath the shelter of
night misery stole forth from its squalid lair
no longer awed by the police to beseech the
compassion of the stranger. and pour its talc
of woe and suffering into the rarely willing
ear. Serene and silver in the clear night air
r.osc the nearly lull moon over Southward
shedding a soft and mellow light on pillar and
edifice column and spire and enduing the
placid bosom of the Thames with a tranquil
and spiritual beauty. Such was one glimpse
of London at midnight: 1 have not seen it
so impressive by day.
PoMr-Eii. A recent letter from an Ameri-
can gentleman in Naples says:
'Vesuvius is now calmly smoking and seems

Pompeii is slowly appearing above ground.
About twenty laborers are kept at woik who
manage to get oli a cartload of earth a day
from the sabincumbent city. Not one half ol
the entire city is yet excavated. The earthly
mound which covers it is an exceedingly beau
tiful nnd rich vineyard with houses of peas
ants scattered over its surlace. A bastion of
the sen wall has recently been unearthed
whi'ch goes to confirm the opinion that the
sea now nearly a mile distant once laved
the walls of Poirrjieii.
A man of a hundred pounds weight has gen-
erally four pounds of brain. Thero is no
other animal that has as much. An ox of
from eight to nine hundred pounds weight has
but one pound. We count in the human bo-

14 in the brain 40 in the other parts of the
head and neck 02 in the arms and hands and
00 in the legs and feet. Tho hones of the

Rash and Deplorable DeATit. As the
train was approaching Andnver on the Erie
Railroad 011 Monday a gentleman and lady
attempted to cross the track in front of the lo-
comotive with a horse and buggy but the
horse being vicious slopped on the track and
the gentleman and lady were iustniitly killed
and also the horse. Henry Fitzsimmons is
said to be the name of the unfortunate gen-
tleman. The citizens standing by tried to
prevent Mr. F from attempting to cross but
without avail. The engineer also made an
ineffectual attempt to stop the train. From
all the circumstances the gentlemen in charge
of the train arc blameless.

The Faculties for intellectual abilities moral
worth aim professional acquirements will compare
favorably with the most distinguished in our country.
The medical faculty constitutes an anomaly in thi.
or any other country all of them are able lectur-
ers and tho best of teachers.
Those who will contemplate our geographical
position and the extent ot our population can have
no doubt a-? fo'tho e'igibility of our situation for an
enterprise of the kind. As to health including all
seasons of the year wc deny that any other city has
more.
The first clas of the Law' and Medical Depart-
ment of this school were small biit the gentlemen1
composing them are talented c'-ni fc the highest de-
gree respectable a favorable ome.t for the future
prosperity of the Iostimte.
That the public may be satisfied of the perma-
nency of this school wo feel it ocr dnty to state
that the Trustees ar.d faculty form a cnit in action
which augurs well fur its future success ; and that
