The name of the party indicted was Geo. L. Drury, Representative from the parish of Assumption, as returned by the Returning Board. Drury baa been a clerk for the past few years in different capacities in the State-House, and was lately in the office of the Secretary of State.

He says that certain parties are trying to make a scape goat of him, but that he will be able to clear his skirts, and that he intends to do so, even though hia revelations should criminate officials high in position. Mr. Drury visited several of the newspaper offices last night, and although closely shadowed by the Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff, he escaped arrest as far as we could learn. lie stated that he intended to surrender himself on Monday morn- a General Appropriation. -Bill PROMU LGATIOX OF THE NEW BILL.

Charles A.

A petition was then presented to juoge riiatcniora, praying ior issu anee of a writ of habeas corpus ordering the Marshal to bring Mr. Dana before the court ana snow cause wny he should be detained.

United States District Attorney Bliss asked for an adjournment, and the matter was finally set down for 2 o'clock Tuesday next. Dana meanwhile was allowed to'go -on parole, being, however, in technical custody of the court. With reference to the attachment against Mr. Dana, editor of the Sun, it appears that the subpoena was -served a short time since on Mr. Dana, commanding hia attendance in Washington to testify before the erand jury in the case entitled "the nited States against Frederick II- Snyder." He paid no attention to it and hence the attachment was issued.

He says that he knows nothing whatever about the case, and that it is a trick to get him in Washington.

This institution is also supported by private contributions, under the general control of the Protestant Episcopal obnrcbes of this city.

It is supported chiefly by alms collected in St. Mary's Church, also by the sale and rent of lots in St. Joseph's Cemetery, and by the city.

No repairs are needed, and the institution is kept in perfect order. In all departments are seen tbe same order and regularity which universally govern the management of tbe good 8istera. They also need help from tbe city.which for -a long time has been withheld from them. The Little Sisters of the Poor (having charge of the aged and infirm) corner of Laharpe and Johnson atreeta. It ia a vronderfnl work that these Sisters keep this establishment in such perfect order.

Je found it under tbe charge ot only iteen Sisters, and yet it contains 140 old men and women, having all" that could possibly be desired for cimfort and good maintenance. No revenues hat charitable contributions. No assist ance from the State, and only $100 from tbe city last year. They owe $10,000 on tbe new building, having $7500 due next month. The ever generous Margaret recently presented them with 113 new bedsteads for tbe occupants.

When we go through this edifice and examine the marvelous work accomplished in such a short time by those humble, un-obetrnsive, yet devoted Sisters, and wit nees the evident happiness and content of vbeir aged charges, we cannot refrain from tbe thought that the hand of God is there. "House of the Good Shepherd, Bienville street. This institution contains 270 inmates, of whom 100 are small girls of all ages, and all in good faeaitn. l'he place is well kept, under tbe charge of thirty Sisters of tbe Good Shepherd, who are also considerably embarrassed by debts on the building and for provisions. The older Inmates are employed in sewing and other industrial employments and tbe yeonger in school.

Included among these are tbe girls formerly in the Girls', House tf Refuge, to whom the change has been greatly benenoial. In their good work these Sisters are also greatly in need of aid from the city and charitable contribution.

Here, too, we witness the same wonderful economy of means aad provident application of the small aid the Sisters receive.
