Mr.. Superintendent Paxton, IN the conclusion Of

This is excellent ncws-too good. We fear, to be
true But it would make such saving to the Com

CJrox and Walter scott

We find the following letter in late number of the
London Times
To the Editor OF he Tines.
Sir-I request favor hensertion in the Tunes Of
this my reply to the following passage from Mr Thomas
Moores diary, published by Lord John Russell:
asked Lord H. (lollad about the story Napier tells
OF Sir W. Scott having written song for "Pt Club
while Fox was dying the burden Of which Tally hol
to the Fox. Not word of truth in it. toli Napier
ss he mentioned the wretched calumny."
Thus TO be quoted the careless reporter Of wretch
ed calumny" does not suit me, and will now give the
ground for repeating assertion, with full belief in Il
truth, despite Of Lord Iiol,uds authority. First
collection clear and strong Of this fact that the
papers published st the time the words Of the song-the
burden being, think "Tally-hol" but clark bark
to the death of the Fox" IL published as Sir W.
Scotts composition aud having been sung at, "Piu
dinner Second, after my discussion with Mr. Moore
happened TO meet Mrs Dugad Stewart widow OF the
raj philosopher and mentioned the subject her she
raised her hands aud eyes in establishment Mr. Morc
having contradcted the story saying her husband bad
broken of all intimacy with Sir Walter in resentment md
think she said had shut his door against hiu
the only point doubtful was whether Sir Walter had not
also sung the song at the dinner.
There must be people in Edinburgh still alive who can
bear testimony to this.
