BYRON AND SHELLY.

They were both wronged men. The wrongs of
Byron have been too often considered as imaginary,
because he himself spoke much Of them; but they
were real and many, though used for theatrical pur.
poses. Tie lett his native land-liay received him
hut there, instead of phosophlc endurance and
conflict with his suhcrngs, he plunged in the mos,
wild and desperate GNcesses-sensualism, ennobled
by no generous tender sentiment. "From his
VenitIan harem he sent forth volume after volume,
full OF elcquence, OF wit, Of pathOs Of rIba'dry and
bitter disdun. HIS health sunk under his intcmpe-
rance-a hectic fever wi,hcred him up-his hair
turned gray" These excuses were probably rushed
INTO, N order 10 deadCn and drown his feelings but
he should have enacted nob,er part-endured and
conquered them. "Mcc'ing what must be, is half
commanding IT," HIS scorn was not an attitude, or
else, why continually publish ~
But Shelly's wrongs were greater. He was sum
moned before the moral lUquIson of England and
for the helnous and unwarrantabe crime OF differing
from the Lord Chancellor in opinion, his children
were torn from his parental care-he himself fn-
ger post discern, howled out Of England. But, in
calm retirement he spent his days with his boat, IN
the society OF his accomplished wife, and few
friends contributing his Utmost to the happiness Of
Others, and ever deyotng his toll worn frame to new
studies and new endeavors for mans regeneration.

Our Relations. with England.

The recent rumour that another angry cores
pondence had taken place between the British
Minister and Mr. Forsy tn, was without founda-
lion. On the contrary, from statement recently
made in the U. s. Senate, by Mr.. Buchanan, the
chairman Of the committee ON Foreign Affairs it
would appear that all our difficulties with Eng
land again in fair way of being adjusted
Mr. Buchanan stated that he had carefully exam
;~~i IL - '.--r-.dann" h".,,a~-, Tho o.
vernmeits in relation to the Caroline, and, though
IT was not suited at present for the public eye he
believed that both nations were sincere in their
desire for harmonious settlement of the dispute
II is also thought that special mission to the
court Of ST. James will not be necessary, for even
Mr.. Clay, who seemed to have been pitched upon
by the new Administration for the mission OK
pressed his belief that every thing could be ar
ranged by our present minister OF the court in
question. With regard to the boundary question,
Mr.. Buchanan stated that an arbitration had been
absolutely agreed upon, the principles of its
position settled and that this long continued and
vcxatious dispute was at length in process of final
adjustment. And, as to the seizures of our vessels
on the coast of Africa they to DO saiislactori
ly and fully explained and not repeated.
This intelligence is truly gratifying, and, com
ing from SO high source almost forces upon us tho
belief that all matters in controversy between the
two countries will shortly he cleared up. Bu,this
statement was made in the y. s. Senate on tbs
LIST of March, and, consequently, before the news
from Europe, brought by the steamer President,
had reached Washington. II is true, in that news
we can see nothing which would 60 to give new
direction to any negotiations that may now be go
ing on but we see it stated in the N. Y. Herald,
that, "according 10 The best authority Mr.. Fox, the
British Minister, has received instructions fiom
his government by the President steamer, to de-
mand the peremptory liberation of McIcod,' II
this be true, we can see no way by which an ho-
norable adjustment can possibly be brought about
without resort to arms, whatever may have been
the previous stage of negotiations. But this in
teligcncc, though said to be from tie "bes autho-
rity, comes TO us from the same source from which
that came respecting another angry correspond
ence, and may, like that, be without foundation.
Meantime, however, il is evident England is prepa-
ring herself for the worst and il is 20 be hoped that
our government, will not lose moment in putting
our country too in condition to meet any aud
every emergency.

Lake Navigation.

The Bulial Advertiser of March II, says -
'All the ports upon the Lake west Of Cleveland
ofc free from ice, and the prospect of an early
navigation is therefore favorable. The schr.
Hudson and Havro are both UP for Chicago--the
first from Sandusky, and the other from Detroit"
The Chicago Democrat announces the arrival OF
one schooner at that place, from some port in
Michigan The Democrat also says, it is repor-
ted that Lake ST. Clair is so filled up with sand
that none of the largest sized steamboats, can
reach that city,
