1t was stated, that Sir Waller Scott,
as creditor of House of Constable &
Co. Edinburgh, had declared himself
the author OF the Waverly Novels. This
acknowledgment of the authorship oil
those works is now contradictcd. 1t is
said the editors of the Philadelphia Free
mans Journal have seen letter Just re-
ceived by gentleman of that city from
Edinburgh, which states that Sir Waller
Scott, in making his claim against the
House of Constable & Co. which had
failed, acknowledged himself to be the
PROPRIETOR only, and not the author OF
the Wavery Novels. The acknowl-
edgmen, Of proprc,orship was sufficient
to establish his claim against the estate
of the firm, Nat. Jolv.

WASHINGTON, APRIL "a.
THE PANAMA MISSION.

The PANAMA MISSION.
This subject has, at length, been final
ly disposed Of in the House Of Repre-.
sentatives, by the passage Of an appro-
priation for the expenses Of the Mission.
Our readers will have observed, that,
after rejecting, in Committee of the
whole House, the qualification with
which it was proposed to accompany
the appreciation Of the Mission, and then
by subsequent vote, agreeing to that
qualification, the House finally refused,
by large majority, to make any decIa-
ration at all on the subject, by rejecting
both the resolution reported by the
Committee Of Foreign Relations, and
the qualification appended 10 it on the
motion of Mr.. MLane: thus leaving
the whole matter to the Executive dis
erection and responsibility -+dt. INT.
