TitollA`i Monet. would have known of
this thing, of all others, relatives or
friends—the only person 'whom Brims
could trust as the custodian of his
Posthumous memoirs, MOORS, Weald
efrtainly have been cognizant of this
blot on the poet's life. Why, too,
should Lady Briton have confided to
Mrs. Maws, that 'which she would hot
disclose to her nearest and dearest rela•
tutu's? Why did she not confide this
story at' her husband's guilt to the
surviving members of his and her
father's family who stood around her
death bed? More than all tlllB, since
Lady livativ's pity for her husband
prompted her, during a long life, to
hide trom the world this story of his
damning grolt--why should she, at
her last hour, seek to blacken his
inenit.ry by breathing the recitta of his
Wthiey of the ear of lIARRIET PagIiCLIER
STOli r. '
The real cause of Lady Bract's
estrangement from her husband was,
first, that pecuniary embarrassment
w h ic h ultimately led to the sale of
Newstead Abbey ; and second, the evil
courses into which the poet subse
quently fell; and thirdly, his alleged
insanity. " After it became appareth
that his strange conduct toward me
was not the result of unsound mind,
but of willfulness, I felt justified in
leaving him." in this strife, the ver
diet of the world, as in till such cases,
was given, right or wrong, iufavour of
the woman. Popular applause, ever
as uncertain as the winds of heaven,
turned to detestation and disgust. Men
hated him, without knowing why lie
was accused of crimes of which he
could not possibly have . een guilty.
Ills actions-were misrepresented, his
motives belied. 'The baser herd, who
caned his literary fame, gladly joined
in the general howl—and he thus"
vane eitgoimint of the depth, and mean
liegS or huutrai malice. But that proud
s old r ose superior to it all. In that
hour when the popular clamour wits
at its height—when she who, what
ever Might have been his fading .4 4
shuatid have been the last to forsake
hunt, had lett hum for her father's
house -then it was that, like the boa
at bay against a herd of jackals, he
hurled defiance and co:awn pt at tie
mycophants around him. Pity that, he
bad not opposed the sante unbroken
front to the temptations of sensuality
and dissipation 1
„...put the reaction came. Mankind
bet ati to asTi themselves what it wan
that he had done to merit their hate
and obloquy. The tide of popular fa.
your with now etronger for him than it
had ever been against him ; and on re
ceipt of the tidings of his death, "there
was mourning in every hamlet throngh-
Europe.” It wait in alluilton tp theee

New York and Victory.
The late defeat of theL4adicale in
New York, was we hope, the death
blow to Radicalism in that State.
HORACE Orteineft, one of the founders
and greatest leaders of the Radical par
ty, was a candidate, and his over
whelming defeat shows that neither he
nor his principles are popular with the
is.opie of the great empire State. The
Democratic victory tells us, in thunder
tones, that the doctrines of the Tribune
are not the doctrines 4 the people, nor
is the prophet of the Tribune the
prophet of the people.
We look upon this emphatic i con
demnation of the Radical partS• ui
general and the administration of Gen.
GRANT, in particular by the people of
the State of New York, as the mighty
stroke that has cut off the last head o
the Radical hydra in • that State.
iieocelortb it will rear its horrid front
im more, and the people can now
breath freer and easier. Thu election
of jOIIN T. IlorrmAN as Governor was
the fitst blow at the monster, sad one
which weakened its power and onset
settled its dominion. The final blow
woe gii en in the late contest, and to.
day Radicalism in New York is crawl
ing on its belly in the duet, with the
heel of the victurious Democracy plan
ted upon its 'jack., The Right is tri—
umphant—the people lire free. Oh,
that we might but say the name for
Pennsyl , :raniu. But here, we aro yet
in darkness. The hour of triumph is
delayed. It will come in time, but we
most yet uulfer a little more—bear a
little more, before our people will be
ready to declare against the Coln mon
enemy and assert. their Gotbgiven right
to rule,accordinobo the eternal princi
ples of truth and
,juslice and the re
