The solicitors of Lady Byron's family have written
a communication to the London Journals dlstihcty
stating that the article of Mrs. Stowe IN me Aa"c
Monthly the reason OF the separation OF Loru anu
Lady Byron, is not complete OF autheh'io s'"'e'
ment, and does not involve any direct evidence
Nothing is communicated but recollections of con-
yersatnln had thirteen years since, and impressions
derived from manuscript read under great excite
pent. Without cOnceding that Mrs. Stoves nara
tive contains q complete account of the rela-
aioas between Lord and Lady Byron, they
protest against 1T as gross breach of trust
aud confidence; as inconsistent with Mrs
Stoves recommendations to Lady Byron, ana
violation of the express terms of her will. Lady
Byron's representatives and descendants absolutely
aisclam all cOuntenance of the article, when was
published without their privity or consent 1hs
Recs thinks Mrs. Stoves narrative does not contain
the whole truth, but is probably true as far as II
goes 1t cannot see that she has done anything Ou'
make fair and valuable contribution 10 lhe vera
city and eXactitude of history.
oXFoRDs EXPLANATION OF THEIR VICTORY
Mr.. william the bow oar of the Oxford crew. has
written a letter to The London Times explaining now
the Oxfords beat the Harvards by only length ana
threequarters He says that just before the Ox1ords
reached the ship at Mortlake they were four or i've
the stream caused them to lose length
for fear of foulng. In addition to this,
having started a certain distance above the
aqueduct at Putney, they expected to row only an
equal distance above the ship at MOrtlake; but
having rowed that distance, and not reaching the
Judge they thought that the placing of the tagboat
had been forgotten, so they padded on until they
came in. The Harvard men all this time rowed with
the same pluck and determination which they had
showed through the previous part OF the race, and
gained considerably at the finish. Mr.. william says
the Oxford crew fully acquiesce IN the decision OF
the judge.
The Harvard men have sailed on the steamer City
Of Antwerp for NewYOrk, They dined yesterday
with Mr. Dudley, the American Consul at Liverpool,
and lunched with the Inmans before sailing.
