Geo. Peabody Esq., of London--another great Benevolent Project.
--A letter from the Hon. Thurlow Weed, dated London, January 12, has the following:
After breakfasting this morning I went to the great American banker, George Peabody, Esq., who retires from business before long, and is endeavoring to do good with his large fortune.
While, of course, I am not at liberty to speak of what is to remain sealed, I may say that he is just now maturing a plan for disposing of $500,000 in a way that, should the opportunity be afforded, will prove permanently precious to the unfortunate and destitute of London, and beneficial in other and important respects.
