The ceremonies having concluded, the pro-

was disbanded, some societies returning at
once to their halls, while others serenaded
their friends in the neighborhood. The Total

the Convent of Mercy and serenaded Mother

| The site of the sylum is the square of ground
bounded by Washington, Fourth, ST. Patrick
and st. David streets, which the Redemptorist
Fathers purchased some years ago. The ioca
ton is excellent, being in the suburbs of the
Garden District, and within convenient dis
tance of the markets and cars.
The building itself will front on st. Patricl
street, and, like St. Alphonsus' Church, will
face the river, the wings running parallel will

ed show commodous and substantial three
story brick structure composed of a mai
building and two wings. The main buildiu
will be 80 feet long and As feet wide, and tn
wings will be so feet in length by 40 in width
The length of the main building, together wit
the width of the two wings, will give the Asy

NEW YORK ITEMS.

New YORK, December l6.-Nathsa
Rubenstein, Of No. SO Bayard street, has
been arrested on the charge Of being the
murderer of Sarah Alexander, a young
Jewess, whose body was found in a Geld
on the outskirts Of Brooklyn on Tuesday
afternoon.
The stockholders Of the Missouri Pa
ciic railroad met yesterday to hear the
report Of the committee appointed at q
recent meeting to protect their interests.
The report is long, and after a review Of
the condition Of the road and the pro-
ceedings Of the directors, the committee
think that all the accounts and doings Of
the company should be examined closely
and the facts reported TO the stockhold-
erS, and If the charges against the direc-
tors be true, that suits should be COM
menced to recover back such money as
has been w~rongfully taken from the com
pany, and 70 declare null and void all
mortgages as they have been wrongfully
made upon the property; that the lease
10 tho Atlantic and Pacific RAILROAD
should be cancelled and such damaged
obtained for 9 breach thereof sB may By
just end right under the circumstances.

1t may be fair enough TO attack a man
on the day Of a convention when it is
too late to reply, if a reply we're neces.
sary, but the people understand the
grounds Of the controversy between the
controllers OF The Appeal and John
johnson so we'll that perhaps the latter
does not care to take any notice of the
attack. The report got oat somehow
last evening that the Appeal would have
something characteristic and festive to
say about johnson this morning, and
sure enough our contemporary comes to
time with several columns Of matter
relating to John johnson, who Is under.
stood to have been a candidate for
Mayor for a few days past. We confess
that we wsded through it all and discov-
cred no new light or facts on the subject.
The Appeal supported johnson twice
before without finding out what manner
Of man he was. The exact date Of its
change Of heart we cannot now
give, but could easily do 80 by
referring to certain records at the City
Hall, provided they have not been lost.
There may be q bit Of inside history
about all this which would be mighty
interesting reading" as Horace Greeley
once expressed it. However, we will not
attempt to revive or dig it up. johnson
has been abused until he is strong. he
feeds and fsttens on it, and doubtless
sleeps seven or eight hours every night
and takes three square meals per diem.
Those who set in judgment are his accu
sers; they are preiudiced aud have an
interestjn making good their oft.repeated
charges. The Appeal has written john.
son up by paragraphs, columns and
r~eams-soIid, loaded and doubls-leaded
in nonpsreil, brewer and long primer
type. Yet the people have never mob
bed him, vaylsid him Of nights, or or
dered him TO quit the town ia three
days. This is 6 personal quarrel,
from personal causes, and ell the talk
10 on one side. The public has an
old fashioned way of sympathiz'ng aiih
the under dog in the 6ght. Johnson is
not exactly "under." but he maintains

JANUARY iHTEREsr ON TENNESSEE

NASHVILLE, December l5.-Governor
Porter to-day addressed q letter to a
large holder Of Tennessee bonds in New
York, stating that the January Interest
on bonds will not be paid. BE says that
the public revenues, as fast as paid into
the treasury, will be applied to the lQ
uidation Of q loan account Of 1856, 900,
contracted in meeting the January int
rest last year. and to redeening out
standing treasury warrants, which
amount to $425.0 0 He states that the
inability to pay is attributed to the post
ponement by the Legislature Of the pay
ment Of taxes and to hard times. The
Governor further says he has reason 10
believe that most of the large holders OF
Tennessee bonds would be willing to
fund at a lower rate Of interest It $
guarantee would be given that the int
rest shall be promptly met in future. he
expresses the opinion thss the present
rate is higher than the people are s5is
to pay, but suggests nc basis Of sonpro-
mise.
The Governor Is coming 70 the
LEDGER's position with regard to the
bonds gradually but surely. There "a
but one just and prAc6oAlsolu6ol q the
financial difficulties Of the Stkfs This
we have stated plainly, time and agsiD

results. The people have so1s szsiUss
in this matter. and if persisteuily branded
as regulators, may be aggravated further
in that direction than they have ever in
tended. OF course they would not object
to making the new bonded debt binding
and secure by an amendment to the con
stitution. We would say to the Wall
street gentlemen, who daily send quota
tons OF Tennessee bonds over the wires,
when no transactions are taking place,
that the sooner they take some
steps to meet the views Of the
people the better it will be for
them. If Wall street expects the
next Legislature to greatly increase the
rate Of taxation for their benefit it is a
vain hope. a delusion and q snare. The
Governor may make a scapegoat Of
the Legislature; but so far as this ques-
ton is concerned the Legislature re-
Aected and expressed the will Of the
great mass of the people, and the situa-
ton will not be greatly changed when
the next General Assembly meets in
January, 1877.

New YoRK, December l6.-Accordina
to Bremen dispatches. Thomas, a passen'
ger on the Mosel and owner of the cash
of dynamite which caused the terrible
disaster at Bremerhayen. has confessed
his guilt, saying he had sccomplices al
New York. The motive for this diaboli.
cal scheme appears to have been to pro
cure exaggerated and fictitious insu'
rance and to share afterward with others.
Thomas is quite conscious and answers
all questions; but the bullets have not
yet been extracted from his head. From
what is known, the barrel prepared for
this shameful work was made strongly
by a Bremen cooper and partitioned, one
part containing the dynamite and the
other the apparatus for exploding it.
he intended to place his hellish machine
on the Deutschland, but it was not ready
in time.
The Weser Zeitung adds: I'm sober
words we communicate then, with Ger.
tainty, that the number OF victims killed
aud wounded amounts 10 lao. William
K. Thomas is the full name, and since
his attempt at suicide he has made a full
confession. he was born 10 New York,
married a New Orleans lady and has four
children, tbs youngest a baby. BE lived
in Virginia during the war and engaged
in the business of blockade running,
whereby he grew rich. Since 1866 he
has resided here aud at leipsic, and last
at Strethlen, near Dresden. He appears
to have lost his money and became en-
barrsssed. He was twice in America
during the past summer. The last time
be went without the knowledge of his
family, and when he returned he wrote
his banker here that he had made ar.
engagements enabling him to pay his
debts in December. He was highly es-
teened by the people in Germany. His
house has been searched, but nothing
was found connected with the disaster.
Thomas has attempted suicide again by
tearing of the dressings from his
wounds
BRENERHAyEY, December l6.-There
is no change to-day in the condition Of
Thomas. BE has fully confessed and re-
veAled the names Of his accomplices,
bat the authorities will not make known
sny further particulars.
