Not a spy.

--Mr. Chas. H. Haswell, of N. Y., a few days ago was arrested as a spy at Harper's Ferry, but has been released. The News says he declines to give any information as to the position of affairs there, and thus vindicates his assurance to the Virginia officers that he was not there as a spy. He speaks in warm terms of the kind treatment he received from the Virginia officers while under arrest.
