al Mnre. Clerk"
For the purpose Of securing indictment against
Messrs Whiting and verren before the late Grand Jury
that adjourned yesterday morning for the term the Court
Sessions issued order to bring DeBulon from prison
Blackwes Island as witness, and his testimony
received and recorded There being sufficient test
mony in the minds Of the jurors implicate Mr. Whiting
mainly intended, the part of those who have
owed this affair in secret. The complaint against him
dismissed, and at late hour Friday, directions
given prepare indictment against Mr. verren
which was found and he yesterday afternoon entered
cury in the of 49, 500 to the charge 1t will
be remembered that at the time of the conviction of De.
Bullion and Barhelemy, they applied to the Supreme
Court for trial. which refused, the ground
that naugh but justice had been dealt out to them
We doubt whether the annals Of rascaliy produce
a infamous movement than the above, and we also
have believe that the whelc affair has alone
engendered in attempt to implicate Mr.. Whiting as
stepping to his removal from the Office of District
Attorney Should such prove to be the case, those who
have stepped their hands in this business will be fully and
eeotually exposed the Of nsuted community
We shall have more to say this subject at another
