A Common Council Opinion of Bykon.~llii theLondon Court of Common Council, on Thursday, uponthe.motion of Mr Bedford, secqnded by Mr John Symonds; the Court resolved, by a majority of four, to contribute the sum of 100 guineas towards the fund now being: raised for the purpose of erecting.in some conspicuous place in the Metropolis: a statue of Lord Byron. The subject gave, rise to a smart discussion, in which.Mr Hicks, while admitting that there were marks of immense genius in Byron's writings, said that their whole tendency was vile and base. He should like to see j the man who would allow his wife or j daughter to; read them. A member, in? j terposing, said 'he" would, upon which Mr Hicks retorted tkat ho was thoroughly j ashamed of him. He added that the "Newgate Calendar" and " Jack Shep- I pard " had not exercised a worse influence than Byron's poems. Mr Clements asserted incidentally that he did not care for Byron or his monument, to which Mr Bedford ironically remarked that if they where only to erect statues to the moral and : the good, London would be full of the stone effigies of Common Councilmen..
