The Grand Jury of the United States' Circuit

Court at Richmond has found a new indictment for trea-
son against Jefferson Davis, which covers 50 pages of
foolscap, and details all the offences since the beginning
of the civil war. The first indictment., which was about
one-tenth the size of this, contained so many flaws that the
Government law officers have always been afraid to at-
tempt Mr. Davis's trial. This present indictment is said
to be a history of the war.
The New York Citizen says—" Cornelius Vander-
Lilt, the younger, once appealed to the liberal purse of
Horace Greeley for that pecuniary aid of which he stood in
need, but of which his father's parsimony deprived him.
To this appeal, without asking either security or interest,
Mr. Greeley responded to the extent of over $15,000 ; and
young Vanderbilt has since, we believe, taken the benefit
of the Bankruptcy Act. Mr. Greeley is not rich. Cor-
nelius Vanderbilt, senior, is worth many million dollars of
ill-gotten treasure. Why does he not repay to Mr. Greeley
the money borrowed by his spendthrift son? Surely, if
any debt might be considered in the light of a sacred obli-
gation, this debt to a gentleman who loaned money merely
from the natural goodness of his heart—asking no security'
and expecting no interest —might be so considered, even
by such a veteran disregarder of all obligations which he
cannot be forced by law to perform, as Cornelius Vander-
bilt, the elder !"

A dinner was given on Tuesday evening, March
31, by Admiral Farragut, on board his flagship the Frank"
lie, to Admiral Provana, the naval commander-in-chief in
Naples. A temporary dining-room had been erected on
the lower deck leading out of the Admiral's cabin, which
was dressed with tho flags of different nations, and fes-
tooned with flowers. The following gentlemen had the
honour of receiving invitations :—The Prefet of Naples,
the Marchese Rudini ; Admiral Provana., Naval Comman-
der-in-Chief ; William Acton, Italian navy ; General Pet.-
tinengo, commander-in-chief of the military department
of Naples ; the United States Consul in Naples, R. Roger°
Esq. ; W. H. Aspinwall, Esq., United States ; Captain
Charles Wake H. B. M. S. Endgmion, the commander of
H.B.M.S. Arethusa ; the captain of the Swedish corvette
Cele ; Col. Da Sauget, Italian Royal Staff corps ; Captain
Pennock, U.S.S. Franklin ; Captain Wyman, U.S.S. Ticon-
deroga; Captain Strong, U.S.S. Canandaigua; three officer°
belonging to the Staff of Admiral Farragut, and the
Paymaster of the fleet, Colonel Bradford. There were
no toasts given. During the dinner, which lasted about
three hours, the band of the Franklin played with
great taste and precision the national airs of all the
countries represented. One thing which deserves sPe-
cial mention was the dessert—supplied by Ferrone, st°'
Brigida. Amongst the delicacies was one particular
named after the guest of the evening—Meringues al' Antira
Provana—which was pronounced excellent. Senator
Ficrelli was prevented by indisposition from being present.
On Thursday, April 2, the Admiral, in company
with Admiral Provana, paid a visit to the Royal establish-
recut at Pietrarsa. The party were convoyed there in
Government steamer. Afterwards a visit was paid to the
foundry of Macry Henry and Co. Admiral Farragut n7c
pressed himself much pleased with all he saw, and tli°
visit of so distinguished a foreigner gave, wo have heara_
great pleasure to the proprietors and managers of 130'.
establishments. We are sorry to hear that both Admiral
and Mrs. Farragut are far from well, but there is nothing
serious in their indisposition.
