SIR 'TnIter ScoL-Mnch wonder has been expresv
ed at the apparently unnecessary i!-timed avowaI of
the authorship of The Wavery Novels. Some of our
American editors have supposed that Sir Waller
must have been drunk, and told the 'strth in wipen
which he had SO long yelled in sobriety Some have
considered the dinner party. where the avowal was
made, hoax of the day. But it turns out 10 be a
act: The embarrassed state OF Constable and Co. and
Baiiantyne and Co. necessarily exposed their accounts
to the inspection of their creditors. BY this means it
IS asceraned that Sir Walter not only receives pay
,Hent for the works which he has actually written
out he also spulaes for the purchase money of works
which are yet 10 be written. These as well as other
particulars, were found in the sederunt books of Bal
aptynes creditors and copy put IN private cir
culaOn. This was the cause of the UNEXPECTED avoy
al on the part OF Sir Walter. We told by the Scots
Times that the new number of Constable's MscelIa
ny is edited b this interchangeable writer.
