/. NEW VERSION OF THE BYRON
AFFAIR.

George the Count Johannes
George Jones, of legitimated drama
fame--has come to the rescue of the
good name of Lord Byron and his sis
ter, Mrs. Leigh. Itputs new face on
the affair and looks plausible. 1t APP
pears that both Lord Byron and Mrs.
Leigh were aware of the charge made
by Lady Byron-that they confronted
and COMPOUNDED it at the time-and
that Lady Byron confessed her mistake,
and by way of atonement, promised to
name her unborn child ifa girl-afser
Mrs. Leigh. The Count affirms that he
had this statement from Mrs. Leigh
herself, AMI confirmation of it from
Lord Harrington, who spoke on the au-
thority of Lord Byron. 1t is now
charitably inferred that Lady Byron,
naturally jealous, becoming ascetie and
morbid, permitted this idea to gain hold
on her mind, and that she really be-
lieved it, and communicated it to Mrs
Stowe.

Rl If any one has ever formed the
impression that the Day Book is in
favor Of the importation Of Chinese
coolies into the Southern country, we
wish to assure them they are wrong.
We were glad enough to escape from
the institution Of slavery, whereby la
Dor was cheapened and degraded; and
we certainly do not want to go and
place our necks in another halter
equally as obnoxious and. degrading.
But what we do. say is this, that we
shall eventually have, through the pro-
cess of opening up communications
with that far off country, large numbers
of the more intelligent and refined in
habitants CT China, whose knowledge
of the arts and sciences mixed with our
own, will eventually rebound to the
interests of both races. a The class we
shall get will not cheaper labor mater
tally, but will teach our own people
many valuable lessons whereby we
shall doubtless be materially profited, SO
that the evil will not be unmixed with
good.

THURSDAY MORNING, Sept. 8, 1869

gegWe perceive they are beginning
to deal out to the Richmond Enquirer
some of the treatment they have dealt
the Day Book along for the last one Or
two years. Our readers will rcmem-
Der the industry with which interested
parties have circulated rumors to the
effect that our paper "was dying,
"about to fall" zone foot in the grave"
&C., &c, We should judge from what
the Enquirer says, that something of
the kind is going on in regard to itself.
The Lynchburg News condoled with it,
together with several other Southern
papers, few days ago, and the Enqui-
Ter replied to it, as follows: awe are
much obliged to the News for the kind
ly spirit in which the foregoing seems
to have been penned, but we cannot
accept that portion of its compliment
which implies that we have been ''per-
mitted to fail for want of patronage.
We have our share of the public patrons
ange, and have neither failed nor are
going to do SO, the gratultous opinions
and statements of some of the so-called
correspondents" from this city to the
contrary Notwithstanding"
The case of the Enquirer is so much
like our own in regard to this sort of
treatment, that we hope that paper will
excuse us for referring to it; for we have
been prompted to it principally from
consideration of the well-known fact
that most all Of our Southern newspa-
pers have had hard time of it since
the war, and particularly during the
dull summer months this year. We
admit we have, and it is owning to this
dull time, that some OF our special
"friends," suspecting we are not oven
'and above "fush," have awaited of the
occasion to assure others that we are
a asnt Iihaae ,es These a aEs tsEE56X
do and say things now that they would
not dare do at other times, and we are
induced to suspect when we hear of
such remarks in regard to ourselves, that
i" the wish is father to the thought. +"
Now, we know we are not overburden-
ed with ready cash, but if any one to
whom we are under financial obliga-
lions, has any distress of mind about
our Indebtedness we are perfectly will
ing to give him a collateral of three or
four to one on other parties, in the shape
of uncollected bills, all of which would
be considered good in ordinary times by
most business men, and which we our
selves consider good. "a So, that we sus-
pect the truth is, that the newspaper
men are not the only ones " hard up
lust about this time, for none OF the
bills we refer to are against newspaper
men.
