​DENT, formerly Hedley. (Lieutenant, 1825. f-p., 16; h-p., 21.)
William Dent Dent, born 18 April, 1796, is only son of the late Matthew Hedley, Esq., by Jane Charlton, of the family of Charlton of Lee Hall, co. Northumberland, great-niece of Sir Wm. Lorraine, of Kirke-Harle. He assumed his present surname, in lieu of his patronymic, Hedley, on succeeding, in 1831, to the property of his great-uncle, John Dent, Esq., of Shortflatt Tower, in the above county.
This officer entered the Navy, 22 June, 1810, as Midshipman, on board the Rifleman 18, Capts. Alex. Innes and Joseph Pearce, employed on the Home and American stations. On one occasion, when off the Penobscot, he contrived, in a tender, with only four men, to capture one of the enemy’s heavily laden ships; but he had scarcely despatched his prize to New Brunswick, when he had the misfortune to be himself taken captive. He soon, however, effected his escape; and, in Oct. 1814, joined the Royal Oak 74, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Pulteney Malcolm, whom he accompanied in the expedition to New Orleans; where he commanded the ship’s cutter at the disembarkation of the troops, and was in immediate attendance on the last-mentioned officer, and also on Major-General Keane. While co-operating with the army on shore, he fell in at night with a body of Americans, and, being again taken prisoner, was sent 400 miles up the Mississippi. On being eventually exchanged, Mr. Dent returned home, and in Sept. 1815 joined the Alert 18, Capt. John Smith, with whom he served for three years on the east coast of England. Having passed his examination in June, 1816, he was next successively appointed Admiralty-Midshipman and Mate, on the Downs and Mediterranean stations, of the Severn 40, Capt. Wm. M‘Culloch, Cambrian 48, Capt. Gawen Wm. Hamilton, and Euryalus 42, Capt. Augustus Wm. Jas. Clifford. While in the Cambrian, in 1820-3, Mr. Dent escorted Lord Strangford to Constantinople, and was stationed in the Archipelago at the commencement of the revolution in Greece. On obtaining his commission, which bears date 14 Feb. 1825, he joined the Sybille 48, Capt. Sam. John Pechell; with whom he continued until April, 1826. He then returned to England, and has since been on half-pay.
Lieut. Dent is in the commission of the peace for co. Northumberland. He married, 12 May, 1840, Ellen Mary, daughter of Andrew Seton Kerr, Esq., of Kippilow, co. Roxburgh, by whom he has issue a son and two daughters.

On subsequently joining Commodore Wm. Robt. Broughton in the Illustrious 74, Mr. Dennehy served at the capture of Java, where he appears to have been engaged on shore at the storming of Fort Cornells, 26 Aug. 1811.

In 1807 he landed with the naval brigade and was employed in the batteries at the siege of Copenhagen, where he received the thanks of Capt. Rose, who acted as Beach-Master, for suggesting the easy and safe embarkation of the troops by means of the enemy’s floating-batteries. On the Agamemnon being wrecked in the Rio de la Plata 20 June, 1809, he joined, with strong recommendations, the Bedford 74, Capts. Adam Mackenzie and Jas. Walker.

An Ethical Movement.
A VOLUME OF LECTURES
BY
W. L. SHELDON,
Lecturer of the Ethical Society of St. Louis.
12mo. Cloth. $1.75.
MR. W. L. SHELDON has been for ten years Lecturer of the Ethical Society of St. Louis one of the societies that has grown out of the Ethical Movement inaugurated twenty years ago in New York City by Dr. Felix Adler. The lectures have a peculiar significance as showing the attitude of mind of one who has made of ethics a religion, and who believes in the work of these societies as the devout Catholic believes in the Roman Catholic Church. They indicate how far ethics can take the place of theology as an inspiring force to a certain class of minds, and they illustrate the transition from an accepted orthodox faith to this ethical idealism, showing to what extent such a change may or may not alter or influence one's general religious beliefs, and also pointing out the degree in which the standpoint may modify one's views about social or political institutions. At the beginning of the volume is a short sketch describing the rise of the new Ethical Societies and their development throughout America and Europe. The author gives his personal interpretation of what this new Ethical Movement signifies as a tendency both in practical life and in the world of religious thought. It is an individual statement throughout, with no efforts to speak or judge for others. The book will be of value not only to the student and religious teacher, but also to those that may be groping helplessly about, unable to adopt an orthodox faith, yet longing for something to believe in or to work for.

# A Pæan

How shall the burial rite be read?  The solemn song be sung? The requiem for the loveliest dead,  That ever died so young?
Her friends are gazing on her,  And on her gaudy bier, And weep ! - oh! to dishonor  Dead beauty with a tear!
They loved her for her wealth -  And they hated her for her pride - But she grew in feeble health,  And they love her - that she died.
They tell me (while they speak  Of her "costly broider'd pall") That my voice is growing weak -  That I should not sing at all -
Or that my tone should be  Tun'd to such solemn song So mournfully - so mournfully,  That the dead may feel no wrong.
But she is gone above,  With young Hope at her side, And I am drunk with love  Of the dead, who is my bride. -
Of the dead - dead who lies  All perfum'd there, With the death upon her eyes,  And the life upon her hair.
Thus on the coffin loud and long  I strike - the murmur sent Through the grey chambers to my song,  Shall be the accompaniment.
Thou died'st in thy life's June -  But thou did'st not die too fair: Thou did'st not die too soon,  Nor with too calm an air.
From more than fiends on earth,  Thy life and love are riven, To join the untainted mirth  Of more than thrones in heaven -
Therefore, to thee this night  I will no requiem raise, But waft thee on thy flight,  With a Pæan of old days.
