TIII4 LATE Aix. DOUGLAS JEBROLD.—Some strange
misapprehensions prevail respecting the private affairs
of the late Mr. Douglas Jerrold. It was posted on the
pillars in our Exchange Newsroom, in a telegraphic
message, that he had left his family without a penny,
and this statement was borrowed from the London papers
of the day. The report originated in the general, but
absurl, notion that a literary man is, necessarily,
only one remove from a pauper ' • and in the announce-
ment that Mr. Dickens, Mr. Thackeray, and other
friends, had resolved to give a series of entertainments

for—it was alleged—the benefit of Mr. Jerrold's
Mr. Dickens, however, simply intended to mark the
respect which ho and ail his friends entertain for the
largely-gifted man on whom the grave bad prematurely
closed, by promptly raising an acceptable memorial to
his memory—nothing more. Mr. Jerrold was not only
a hard-working man, but a prudent one. His life was
insured for 2,5001., and his widow—instead of depend-
ing on sympathy or charity—will have an income of
about 6001. a year. His sons are in a position
to add to, not diminish, the provision made for
their admirable mother, and the daughter has been
placed in affluence by the thoughtful affection of her
late father-in.lavr. Mr. Jerrold's family would have
been pained by the allusion to their domestic concerns,
did they not know that the deceased was a public man,
in whom every one took an interest, and that the mis-
apprehension to which we have referred proceeded from
the honest admiration of gentlemen who' would never
willingly do aught that could even remotely hurt the
feelings of the relatives of the man they loved while
living, and mourn now that he is dead. Through life,
Mr. Jerrold in the spirit of a noble independence,
dreaded being dependent himself, or leaving his family
dependent on any one ; and shortly before his deaitthh he
had a serious conversation on this very subject w
his
brother-in-law, Mr. Copeland, lessee of uur Theatre
Royal. Mr. Copeland sat by his bed when he died ; and
a few days since, when the Liverpool Dramatic Society
waited on him, to offer their services in netting up an
amateur play for the benefit of Mr. Jerre I.l's family, Mr.
Copeland eaid "No, his family need no such assistance,
and I cannot grant the theatre for any such purpose ;
but if you wish to co-operate with Mr. Dickens in his
direction, I can see no possible objection." These are
plain factr, and their publication is due to the memory
of the man who is gone from us.—Liverpool Doily IV-fivst
