Mir Letter ortho Byron Solicitors, TO THE EDITOR OK TUE LONDON TIMES. Sir-As thc solicitors oftbo descendantsand rcprosontativeB of tho lato Lndy Nool Byron, for whose Umily wo have acted for upwards ot half a contury, wo roquost your permission to publish in tho eolumua of tb> Tunes the lol. lowing observations rolativo to an articlo which bu? just appeared in Macmillan's Maga ziuo. Tho articlo in question m onlitlud "Thc Tiuo Siory. of Lady Byron's Lifo," and Mrs. H. li. stowe ia annouucod to bo tho wt ?tor of it. Of Ibo paper itself wo should probably havo abstained from tainui: nay public notico tr it bad appeared in a loss rospoctablo journal than Macmillan, or il ovuu iu thia periodical tbo au? thoress bad hoon allowed to toll hor Btory with? out editorial profaco or comment. Tho edit or of Macmillan, however, has uot only admitted Mrs. Stowe's arliclo, bul ho bas prefixed to il a noto in wli'ch ho authoritatively proclaims lo tho world that "tho papor on Lady Byron's lifo and relations to Lord Byron ?B tho com? pleto and authentic statement of tho whole circumstances of that disastrous alTiir." Nay, mot e, "that this paper ia, iu rael, Lady Byron's own statement of (bc reasons which forced her to tho soptra'iou which alto so long resisted." Airain, tho editor alatoa that tho contribution ol Mrs. ?lowe Biipplios "oviJonco at once now and direct" on Lady- Byrou'a history. We, as the family sohoilora. hep; most dis tiuclly lo st ate that tho artiolo is not a "com? plete'' or "authcnlivc Btalomont" of thc facia connected with tho separation, that it cannot bo regarded aa Lady Byron's own statement, and that it docs not involve any dirccl evi? dence ou Lady Byron's history. Instead ot direct evidence, Mrs. Stowo has nothing to coinmuuicato but lier recollection of a convers?t iou lint-toen yeats ago, anti lier impressions of a manuscript whiob Bho stales thut Lady Byron at that time gave lier to pe? ruse, and which, according lo hor own show? ing, sho road uudor very great excitement. Xbc30 cti'cuin8tancss probably account for sev? eral obvious errors iulo which Mrs. Stowe lias fallen, such as assigning two years instead ol thirteen months as tho period during which Lidy Byrou resided under Hie same roof with hor liusbaud, aud similar inaccuracies, to which, for the pioscnt purpose, it is unnccoa sat v io allude. Without for a mnincnt conceding that Mrs. Stowe's narrative contains a completo account ol'Lady Byron's relations willi her liusbaud. wo must protest against il as beim; professed? ly-first, a must gross In . neb of tho trust and eonfidODOQ stated lo have been veposcd in lier; second, as Inconsistent with her own recom? mendation lo Lad'.' Byron; sud, third, asad ignorant violation (at least wc shall, in chari? ty, suppose Mrs. Stowe lo be iguoianl) nf tbo exprc-s lei ms of Lidy Byron's la?t will mid testament. Fu ,I, as relates to a breach of trust, Mrs. Stowo states thai she was consulted in un in? terview win -h. to uso Uer own words, "liad ..timi st ibo solemnity ol a doathbod," not as lo whether BIIO would undertake a rednctiou of Lady Byron's married history; but only as io the policy of publishing an iii a history at all; secondly, Mrs. Stowe, on lier own admission, returned to Lady Byron tho brio! memoran? dum paper whicli had been intrusted lo ber. with the statement ot her opinion that "Lady Byron would bu entirely justifiable in leaving (he truth lo be disclosed niter her (loath, and recommended that ali facts necessary should bo put iu thc hands of some persons to bo so published;" thirdly, Lady Byrou did, by Uer lust will oed testament, executed a fow days only beforo her deer.iso, bequeath to three porsona SB trustees all her manuscripts, io bs by them first sealed up, af tm v,-,ird depositod in a bank iu the name of auch truotcos, and _HIIH ilirpr-toJ ?l??J un ?"? else, however nearly connected with her. should, upon any pica whatsoever, bo allowed to inspect Buch documents, which tho trustees were alone to mako usc of au they might judge to be best for the interests of ber grandchil? dren. Mrs.'Stowe is not ono of tl irs ii three. Her paper is entirelj gratuitous and unauthor? ized. It is, as wo havo said, not consistent with her own counsel; kt ia au offence against Lady Byron's dying wishes, and Ute authoress bas writton in utter disregard of thc feelings of i hoso giandcbiidron of whom sho spunks in a vague, fulsome way, as "some of tho host and .oiliest of mankind.'.' il\e appearance of the volumes about Lord Byron by the Countess Quicoioli is alleged by Mrs. S to*,) BB the main reason whiob induced ber to pnbl'ti, ber storr; but if Lady Byron's deecendanta, ber peraoiml and trusted friouds iu this country, BaflVr tho slanders of tho Countess Guiecioli to pass uncoutradicted for, to use Hrs. Stowe's own expression, of what value a :a Ibo outcry of "ibo mistress" against thu wife?- their silence should cor tlinly have lea Mrs. Stowe to hesitate bet?rt giving to tho world a statement wbicb, how? ever it may affect the mernoiios of tbe dead, "?ist inevitably inflict much paiu on thc ll?lMj, "Lady Bj rou's own statement" is in tho pos? session ?f (bose who lovo hor memory too well to make, brjah uso of it, and if tho world is ever to learn ibo true alory of Lady Byro?'a life, it will learn u from them. It wjuld havo bb-,n |n better toete if Mrs. Stowe and the editor 01 Macmillan's Magazine had imitated the "rohgiOL. eilence" which the latter so much commends in the case of Lady Byron.

IFrcm the Temple Bar.] Tbo man who thinks about marrying neces? sarily becomes a student of chi: racier, and spends a good proportion ol his timo iu that amiable pursuit. It may happen that bo is quito . unaccustomed to guess at a woman's disposition (rom bor manner, and speech, and conduct; and ibo chances aro that be gets con sideraOly bewildered. If the girl or woman in whom ne is interested is at all comploxin character or variable in humor-and sbo is a miracle of a woman if she is not-lie will form a dozen different estimates of ber nature in as many weeks; and at last confess that , if ho does marry ber, ho must marry bor on trust. Just at this particular period a brother comes in handy. Blinded by the power of feminine oyes, or fascinated by that idoai appearance wbicb every woman "on her trial"knows how to atsame, tbe doubting lover tunis to bis sweet bean's male relatives, aud lhere studies I the family character in tho rough. Hero, in ? quiet gray light ho may poroeivo all thoso traits of mind and habit wbiob aro either ob? scured or made attraotivo by tho lambent witchery of his mistress' presence. Not only have mon lees power of self-concealment than women, but they have, further, no object lu assuming an ideal character in order topleaso tbeir sisters' suitors. Of conreo, it cannot be hold absolutely certain that the dispositions of | brother aud eiBter will bo in any degree abke. Tho contemplativo lover must chooao ont tho bro:her ?hat ie physically moat like Hue particular sister-must cult?valo bis acquaintance and entrap bim into self revelation. If this brother be young, especial? ly, (be manner in which bo will illustrate sevotal Of bis elater's peculiarities which have bbherto puzzled the lover is very singular.. With tho artleaenesa of youth, be will betray tho weak pointe of the brlnglng-up, notions and temper bf tho whole family, ile bas neithor Ihe age, caution, wit cor wisdom of bis sister;'and obeys tho oaprloo or whim ot ttio moment without any regard to the attentive scrutiny wbicb ia b jing directed upon bim.

The period of hesitation is over, and rivals arc bidden to beware. On tho other hand, tho brother may unfit? tingly toll tales of Ibo most disastrous kiid. One ol' tho chief tests of a character is it a re? nard for truth; and veracity is so much a oat tor of habit-so much dopendant on Ibo edu? cation-that all tho mombors of a family ure likely ta have notions on tho subject mort or ?less similar. Of ooaree, wc do not moan ibat intentional lying is likely to accrue from a cort tin kind of bringing up, bowovcr m mb it may holp towards it; bu*, that a habit of tutor? ing* inaccurate st ate munta -whet bur tbrourh a tranaient wish ol making mailors look.pleas? ant to ono's companion, or whether through a certain intellectual lamination tor dramatic Eoin ts, which misplaces what is fur what might c-is ono of tho commonest of human fail? ings. The brother will BIIOW you whether that tendency bas been largely developed iii tile family. Ho has not tho skill to be consis? tent in hm innocent misrepresentations. To please you, perhaps, he will proress au ardent admiration for some mutual acquaintance, and say how niaoli that acquaintance is odmtrcd mid liked by his (Un- brother's) family; and then, ucxt day, having forgolton all about tbe matter, ho will call tho acquaiutauco atiresomo old fool, whom his sisters detest. Another re? lated point on which bo will yield much impor? tant inhumation to tho anxious lover is tho extent to which tho family bas.been brought up "for show"-whether tbat exceeding cour? tesy sad perfect amiability of (he BI-tor is a natural or acquired product. He, too, it may be presumo J, baB bceu taught, if bis sinter bas bcon taught, that tho cbief duty in life is to look well in tho estimation' of friends, and ho will display in tho moat limo.linus fashion tito mcaus which the family tra? ditions have thought requisito lot- tfiat pur? pose. Ho will pruloas a love for intellect nal and artistic pursuits which you seo be does not leol merely bocantM) it is right and pr ipcr that he should do so. If ho bas bco<i Taught to assume sincerity as a virtus, bo willhetriiy tho conflict between his own uatufo and the assumption. Play with lum ?it billiards, und iu fits and sturts ho will exhibit aa astonish- j lug candor in confessing to "Hakes"-obvious ly priding himself on his honesty, and laping that you admiro it; and the next minute you will ti d him relapsing into his real self, and making Blatemouls about intended?'CMinons'' which arc calculated to strike you with utro and wonder. lu ma nv similar directions, the brother may bo lod to give evidence Ut&ll fami? ly qualities, irrespective ot (hose chanco lights which you may obtain from bis direct asscr tioas. lint tho grand point, ia which he is au al? most infallible guide, is temper. We kaow ol few mote interesting amusement;-even for those who nie long past tho ago ?it which con? jugal results could iring upob Ibo pnr-uit - than thc'noting of ibo strange resemblances and differences between tho family ll imposition M lt Ie exhibited in a son, aud thc same ss itJ is exhibited in a daughter.

Ia tho coso of tho brother there aro no petty foroinino disguises lo conceal Ibo I ruc a tato of affairs, and tho lover rapidly forms an intimacy which ia fall of surprises lo bim. Anxiously docs be inquire whether this Iiis possiblo brother-in-law is always governed hy? the absolute indecision of judgment and way? ward temper which be eotnolimes exhibits. Ile lookR with dismay upon tho brother's poeviah irritability, and is BO shocked by bia intractable and obstinate folly as scarcely lo bo ablo to re monsirato. Perhaps there aro two or three brothers, all gifted with tho irascible and child? ish temperament; and, perhaps, both father and mother aro dangerous subjects lo -deal, with, when the soup ia cold or tho dressmaker dilatory. With all these indications, it is possiblo that his faith in his own swoet friend should not bo troubled. How, ho asks him-elf, could such a porfeot flower have sprang ap in this hot? house of angry passions? Angela do not con? sort with devais; and in auch a pandemonium tbo appearance of au incongruous visitor pro? vokes suspicion. This >cunar brother, for ex? ample is tho incarnation of bad temper, and even seems conscious of il.

If bs gets n bad band at whist, ho flings down tho cards iu a pssstoo, and coes off to his own room; if ho misses a favorito stroke at billiards, bo dashes bis cuo on tho tablo, outs the cloth, aud sits down, moroso and red-faced.

It is a small matter what tho boy nays; bul it ie a grave mat .a- that suo'.i nngovornablo tem p -ra should bo in a family.

There aro persons whoso affections aro inherently devoid cf permanence; to expect them to remain conatant through any period of absence or trial is to cxpoot a blina man to soe. They are gifted or cursed with a facile and transitory nature, whioh natu? rally clings to tho object nosiest it, and yet does not ding pertinaciously. Half a doz JU words, ? single look, a railway journey, an in trodaotion-any ono of tho .ordinary incidents of lifo-may transfer tho unsubstantial and treacherous regard of snob persona to other objecta.

Their radi? cal weakness cansos them to shift their uncer? tain love; and it would only bo nsoloss hypocri? sy, possibly attonded wilh direful results, for them to pretend that it hal not shifted. To assume tho virtue of constancy is a crime, vt bile to bo honestly inconsistent is to acoopt one's misfortune. . Herc, also, tho brother is invaluable Tho lover watches bim closely to peicoivo wbothor ho shows aympioms of that perpetual indeci? sion of tho affections which hos produced so many tragedies in domoatio life, ile regards this young manV nutations with his sister's friends witb a peculiar interest. Tho lover al? most feels that his own fato is dependant on tho amount ol honesty and conatancy wjitcli this youth ovinoOB; and reads in tho actions and sen nnenta of tho bay tho horoscope of his own futuro. All this takes place when tho lover is as yet undecided, and tho study is tho most engaging aud f.tsoluating that bo can lind.

"\ 31 ARRI A OE LA WS. Strange Incongruities and Absurdities. Just before tho adjournment ot tho recent scs sion of the British Houso of Commons- which was a Tory much overworked body, according to all accouute-a number of important sub? jects wcro postponed; among them that of tho marriago laws introduced by Sir Hound ol 1 l's 1 mor. An intelligent writor to tho Now York Times makos tho follow in;; not.ico of this matter : Tbe principle of religious equality, now prac? tically recognized for tho first timo throe cen? turies after the Boformatlon, seems to require Homo sort of o quality, and, if poasiblo, unifor? mity, iii tbe laws relating to marriage. Tho lnv.d, aB thoy now oxist. Sir Roundel 1 may well call extraordinary. In Luglaud pcoplo aro mar? ried by baas, or dispoused from them by liconso. Ia church marriages no registrar is required to boprosonl: amone non-conformists bis altondnoco is requisite. Tho Quakers have a soparato law all to themselves. If tbe place whore tho marriago is celebrated bas not boca Sroporly consecrated, tho marriage is invalid, t eau only bo performed within certain hoars -never later than ll A. M. In Scotland there is marriago by simple consent ot tho parties: marriages according to tbroo or lour tli?brenl laws, and irregular marriages, which rnako pcoplo liable to aline; but tho Daymont or tho fino logalizca tbo marriago, and this ia a com? mon modo of procedure. In Ireland thoi o is ooo law for Protestant churchmen, another for Presbyterians, and no law at all for Catholics, except a law of pains and pen.ilities iu certain cases. If a Roman Catholic priest should pre? sumo to celebrate it ninrriago bctweeu a Roman Catholic and Protestant, or oren between a Ho? rnau Catholic aud a porsou who had been a Protestant within a yi;ar of tho marriage, till comptratively a recent time, that was a capital offence, and even now it is a criminal offenen of ] a very hieb ordor, and tho marriago. is abso? lutely void. Ut tbo irregular Scottish mar? riages, Sir Round jil has tho horror that might bo expected in an English lawyer and church? man, and bis description of thom ls technical and droll, lio says : Thc ss Hiern of irregular marriages in Scot? land is a very startling thing to those whoso minds aro not thoroughly accustomed toit. It is contracted in two different ways.' Sup? pose any gentleman in this house visited a house in Scotland where a young lady liapncun to bo staying, and that ho aud tho young lady look ? walk together, and in (ho course of tho walk bo took a pieco of paper outof his pocket, on which they wroto down a mutual promiso lo marry; though thc piece of paper might be simply put back again into his ptckot; though nothing might bo said to anybody about tho writing; and though nobody elsa might bo there at tho time, ir tho pcreons afterwards lived in a certain way ingot I.cr, that would he a valid marriage, 'although nobody might know of tho fact of tho tuarriasre for yearn alt IT wards. No tuero ju omise will constitute a marriago unless it bo in writing, and unless subs?quente copiUa. A proiuiso so given and su fallowed constituios a good marriage, how? ever long it may be kept Beeret. TUcro is another oren moro extraordinary mode, in which no writing nt all is necessary; and that is where tho promise is mode not' 'fe futuro, but de present? -wltftro tho woman atys *I take voil, John, for my hushand,' mid wbiro tho man pays, T take you, Mary, for my wifo,' be? fore vit nosies. A promiso of thal kind hoing brought up at any futuro per io!, oven although tho people have tiovor lived together, will hold good, and will bo sufficient to overturn any perfectly honorable and toputablo marriage ly'^fbrajr ?' parties may hayo subsequent tho celebrated Dilrymplo oaso.
