A correspondent informs us that he saw rpcently in an English newspaper an extract from a Scotch newspaper, stating that " Richard Weaver's traducer is dewl, and that on her death-bed she confessed that her whole charge against Weaver was a lie, for which she received a bribe from the real father pf her illegitimate child." Our correspondent adds — " As the Prt-ss of this country spread the scandal, 1 think they are morally bound to publish the present contradiction. He is reported to nave resumed preaching, and vast crowds are daily hanging on his lips. At the time' the foul charge was preferred against; him I did not believe in his guilfc, and I am glad to know that I have not only held the charitable but the truthful view of the case."—" Protestant Watchman."
