Lord Byron.
On Thursday the remains ot his Lordship arrived at the Nore, from Greece, in a vesscl charteredl for the purpose; and the intelli- gence being given to Ihis Lordship's executors, they immediately re- paired to the place to take the charge of it; but to prevent any deinur, from want of legal authority to receive it, they previously proved his Lordships Yvill. This inmportant document hears the date of 29th of July, 1815, just six imonths lifter his Lordship's marriage with the heiress ot the houses of Milbanke anid Noel, and when hiis ladv was enceinte of his only issue. He devises certain real estates at Rochdale adl els, where to his friends, John Camii Hobhouse, lateof Trinity College, Cambridge, Esq., and John Hanson, of Chancery- lane, London. Esq., in trust, ftar sale, aiud the monev arising there- from, together with such part of his othier property as was not settled by his mnarriage settlement on Lady Byron and her children, he di- recls to be in trust for his only sister the [low. Augusta Stary Leigh, for her life, for her own separate and exclusive benefit, and after her decease the principal to go to her chiildren, of which there are eight. And his Lordship declaxes that he made suchi provision tbr his sister and her children, in consequence of hiis dear vife, Lady Byron, and any children he might have being otherwise anmply provided for. 1lis Lordship appoints Mr. llobhouse and Sir. Han-tono his cZeccztors, to each of whom he bequeathes a legacy ot ] ,0001. There is also a shsrt codicil accompanying the will, made in No. vember, 1818, when he was at Venice, providing for a certain ob- ject, but which has, by subsequent events, become inoperauive. The propertv which will thus pass to Mrs. Leighi and her numerous fa mily, exclusive of the large revenue whiclh must ultimately arise from his great works, svill be verv conisiderable. Lady Byron, we have authority to statel has muost *berally bestowedl her johiture of 2,0P01. a-year, wvhich s'e took out of his Lordship's property under his marriage settlement, to Captain Geo.ge Anson Byron, vwho suc- ceeds to the family hnnour.sa proo, at least, that his ILordship calculated juistly on her l,adysh)ip's approval of his own dispositions to thle female branch of th)e famnily equally unprovidcd for. EXTRACT FRONT A LETTER F'ROM1 A ItiGHLY RESPECTABLE QUARTER. TIord Bvron (lied in consequence of refusing to le bled when lie hadl an inflamrmation in the chest. W'hen it v-as proposed to him to he bled, lie answered that lie wrould not, for more people died, he believed, by the lancet than the lan,ce. He was tbnd of endina what he had to say with sonmethingj pointed or striking. It poducc i effect. Next day he became delirious, andr remained in tha, state for eight days, when he died : but the nmedical men who were with him did not Aare to disobey his orders. One thinks they might ha;ve ventured without niucli risk; if he had continued in delirnim, and died notwithstanding their bleeding him, lie couldI not well have k;nown of their disobedience ; and if he hiad recovered, eccentric as he was, he could hardly be very angry at his life being preserved. But the two mnedical men " Wilho were with himi are verv young. Never, perhaps, was man perfbrmine a more great and use;li part than Lotd yrtos in Glreece. Ilis talenits, but still milore his ratik and reputation throughout Europe, among a vain people like the Greeks, added greatly to the effect of his, pecuniary succours to the cause of freedom against tyranny, andc of Christianity against the infidels. Wlho but mnust grieve, that lie thied when engzaged in a cause, the recollection of which voald have shied sunshine from Hieaven uipon the evening of his days ? lIle kept in hii, own pay a body of 600 Suliots. Soon after his arrival in Greece, the Govern. ment entreated him to inform them of aciy wvishi lie had, by gratify. lng which they might testify their deep sense of obligationi to him. He requested them to rice up about 20 Turkish prisoners, chiefly wonieim, children, and infirm men, whomii they helt in prison, to his free disposal. They did so. He sent seven, who were natives of Previsa, to ihe Pactia tlerc, with a very polite letter, exoressing his hope that the ferocious sort of warfare which prevaiIed betiveeti Greeks and Turks, as evinced in the treatment of their prisoners, might be nititigatetl. The Tark returned no answer;t biAt thle rrcek populace, when they f -und the use he macofthcir prisoners, and that lie only waited for conveyances to send the otheur to their native places, mutinied, and endeavoured to take the prisoners from hin; wtich was only prevented by a skirmish, in which L,ord Byr ,n's Suliot guards repulsed the populace. H is private habits were singular, as is wvell known ; hut they are represented to me as by n Q means so mllorose as the public have beeti led to believe. Whenon board the -, going fronn Malta, he liad the inner cabin, the Captain the outer. Hle tsufered nobody to enter his cabin ; but wlhen in the hum-our to converse le would sitin tle door-way ef it, and tall; with the Captain in the most livelv manner. The toneof his conversation had the same freedom and brillianicy as Don Jman,: nevertheless, lie was not only capable but willing to enter into serious (liscussion. At Cefalonia, just beforelie went last to Greece, there evas a niissionary of coi;si erable taleits, a Ir. Kennedy, who considered himiuself as completely one of the chutrch mailitant,and engaged with every mlan he met, when opportunityoffer- ed-perhaps without always waiting for opportunity_in the hope of sow,ing the good seed. LordI Byron heard of him; and when he un- derstoo" that he was a mnan of parts, desired to be introduced to a meeting of two or three English gentlemen, to whom Kennedy h-lad undertaken to prove, in two hours, to time satisfaction of a reasonahic understarding, the truth of the whole Christiais scheme. He appear. ed witilthis books, and Lord Byron met hin. Viith Cite utmost po liteness, the latter did not ri(dicule, but diseatssed Mr. KInnedy's principles, and astonished his auditorsand the divine hytheex- tent of his reading on the subject, and cthe accuracy and prompti. tude of his reasoning. Mr. Ken:tedy himsitf thinks tat he mnade considerable progress witl Lord Byron; cad it iz, expected he will publish something on the subject. WVhenever Lort Byron ce in towards the middle of the day, then was his dinner hour: but otherwise, nobodly ever knewv what it would be. Ile ate principally cheese, of wvhich he was very fond. His manners were extremely polite and fascinating. This last quality was principally owing, perhaps, to the soft and silvery toncs of his voice. Towards seven or eiglht o'clock in tle evening, however, lie was liable to a SOTt of mor6imd access of ill huinour, uviticim his ser- vants d readed, and of which he himself owned a consciousness ; but he did not Icnow how to resist it. At sucI timies hc lised to retreat into his own apartment, and was suppased to write, and nobody daredto disturb him. Hc-e re-appeared in the morning. These are a few anecdotes wiich I had from Air. Muir, Inspector oi ' H eal}h at e.falonia, where hc resided fbr some time. Mr. Aluir was iitimate vith him. The stary relative tothe Turkish prisoners was toldume by v. I.Sartiii, a young naval officer, son of Admiral ltartin, who told ine lie had it from l,ord Byron himself.
