THE ANNUAL VISIT OF THE Moss
BUNKERs. For two years now our
coast has been visited by enormous
schools of this fish which come close
upon the shore so that they can be
bailed up in baskets by the fishermen
in any quantities that are desired:
They are about the size of a small
shad and exceedingly fat and oily, and
are esteemed a itch and daity fish for
the season. Everybody eats them and
many are cured for winter use, The
people along the coast call them God
sends in pious recognition of the
goodness of Providence in sending
Them at the season when fresh fish are
scarce. They come in the latter part
of October and stay only a day or two.
1t is believed they are driven ashore
by the piratical blue fish or dolphin
which pursues them as their lawful
prey. They strike our shores inside
of Cape Henlopen and extend as far
up the bay as Bowers beach. Tons of
them are captured by residents OF the
coast and used Tor manure. Their visit
this season occurred last week.-M'<-

A colored man named Nelson is
owing a butcher on Bcaublen street
five or six dollars, and after trying in
vain to collect the money, the butcher
and FREUD put their heads together
the other night, and laid plan. About
midnight they called at Nelson's house
and he was awakened by a rap on the
window.
"Whose dar?" he called out.

butcher.

BISHOP ]. @. KEENER,

The Republican is the exclusive owner and
patentee of a g reason to believe" that this
gentleman is not in sympathy with our people
in their struggle, and in addition pretends to
"know that Bishop keener is irrevocably op-
posed to the White League, and would not
lend his name to any document which would
screen them or place undeserved odum on so
meritorious an officer as Sheridan
We might well leave the matter exactly
where it is, with the Republican on one side
and Bishop keener and his venerable CO.
slgners on the other but as a simple matter
OF information to the Republican, we will state
what we happen TO know, and have reason to
believe. and good reason too. as we have it
fresh from the Bishop himself, whom we are
bound consider much better authority
than even the Republican.
DR.. Keener wishes it to be distinctly IN
derstood that his signature appears with his
perfect consent to the document in question:
that he is profoundly in accord with its senti-
ment, and repudiates entirely the assum ptions
OF the Republican that he considers Gen. Sher-
dams representations concerning Louisiana
well founded and correct. Has the Republican
any thing more to say about heaven, EARTH
and the Democracy?

gentlemen of the highest character, and most
Of whom had resided there for years. The
people of the State have submitted to the
military authority of the United States with a
patriotic forbearance which entitled them to
the admiration of the country.
Instruction, therefore, certainly does not
prevail, and certainly has not from the first OF
these proceedings No rejecting and honest
citizen, who knows our free institutions, and
desires to maintain them in their purity, and
who knows how vital it is to individual and
political liberty, that military power should
be strictly held in subordination to civil
power, can fail to see in what has happened
and is still continuing in Louisiana, a gross
and unexampled outrage upon the rights of
the State, and an outrage which, if not
sternly rebuked, may and probably will be
committed upon other States and upon Con-
gress itself.
1t will not do to urge in palliation of the
conduct OF Gen. Sheridan, or that of the
President, in not only not condemning, but
in approving the Generals disr atch of the
9TH OF January, to allege that they had
fallen into mere errors Of judgment be-
cause OF their being mere soldiers, and
because the rights proposed 10 be VIC

OUR REPRESENTATIVES.

Now that the fever of excitement. which
became SO infective after the outrage perpe
trated upon the General Assembly of our Stat,
by the military arm of the Federal Govern
ment, has settled down to quiet yet firm de-
termination on the part of our citizens te
retain the ground already won by their heroic
action, we have time to peer through the
clouds darkening our sky, and realize and
pay tribute to the honorable, heroic course
taken by the Representatives of the people in
the hour of trial, we with pleasure avail our.
selves of the opportunity afforded.
From the morning of January 4, to the
present moment, deaf to all syren songs so
temptingly rendered by Radical wire-pullers,
dumb to the opportunities of those who would
Bend the pregnant hinges of the knee
That thrift might follow fawning,
the gentlemen to whom was delegated the
representation of our fair State in legislative
councils have nobly, Leroically spurned all
offers, and vindicated the honor of Louisiana
and her sons by their honorable course.
We can but feebly express to these gentle
men the thanks of not only their constituents
but those of the entire public. Leaving their
homes, as many of them did, at great personal
sacrifice, with fields awaiting the plowshare,
and plantations needing personal attention
these true patriots, in every sense of the
term, lost sight of individual interests in the
needs OF their State, and came to the capital |
to do what they felt to be simply their duty. |
Their action in the hour of peril will not soon |
be forgotten. The dark days of the present
cannot last always, and the expressions we
suffer will not always exist. It is for this rea-
son We wish to give now an expression of our
high estimation of the good service the men,
oers Of our Legislature have done to our peo
pie by their manly course.
From Caddo to Plaquemines these gentle
nen have responded. Personal inconveni-
nee, pecuniary loss, were as naught to them,
vhen weighed in the scale of our States sal
alton. They came, and those who are IA
niliar with the events Of the past three weeks =,
an testify how their work was performed t
The pride with which We recall their course
ompels an expression of gratitude and APP
rotation, and their manly opposition to the
ppressors of our people makes us thus warm

TO THE PUBLIC.

In assuming charge Of the BULLETIN it
proper that should assure its friends, ant
especially the people of the city and State
that it is my earnest desire and deliberate
purpose to so conduct it as to meet the appro
baton Of every man who is opposed to the
present usurpation and DESTROYS OF seeing
the State redeemed from political bondage.
In the execution OF this purpose, l ask the
continuance and aid Of every friend Of the
cause, pledging them, without reservation,
the unqualified support Of the BULLETIN in
every emergency.
The cause of the people shall be the cause
of the BULLETIN, and in the maintenance Of
that cause, we shall devote every thought and
energy, resting secure in the belief that the
people will sustain Us so long as we sustain
them
When we fail to champion the cause of
Louisiana, or to defend her from all corners,
then will the BULLETIN have failed in its
high and glorious mission and sink-as it
will deserve to sink-beneath popular scorn
and contempt. Founded during an exciting
and solemn crisis in the affairs Of the State,
the BULLETIN has met with support rarely
accorded to newspaper; the people have
made it emphatically their paper, and have
rallied around it with enthusiasm and devo- |

PINOHBACK,
AGE NJ. BAKER.

ii We favored Pinchback with very compl
mentary notice of its kind, upon his re-electio
to the Senate Of the United States. We oil
served then that this act Of the present Sc
called Legislature was fatal to his ambition
for if Kellogg was the actual de j,re Governor
and the Legislature was the actual de jure Leg
islature, then Pinchback was entitled to hi
seat; but that the second election admitted il
fact that Kellogg and the pretended Legisla
ture had no right to send any one to the Senat
to represent Louisiana.
So far we were right. But when we wrot,
that article, we were not informed tina
Pinchback had rendered and that Kellogg hao
| accepted his resignation, and neither did the
| so-called Legislature know this fact. How
can there be vacancy, when the appointing
power had the right to elect? The position
that there was a vacancy is most preposter-
GUS. However. on this subject, we subjoin the
comments of the Chicago Tribune, which is
the ablest Radical and Grant organ in the
West If Pinchback is not supported by this
paper, we ask where can he procure defend
ers?
The Senate would not receive him on his
first application, because kellogg was an
usurper. VIII the Senate now receive him
when he is elected by the bayonets of Grant,
However, read the article from the Tribune
The Legislature of Louisiana seems not to
have had any knowledge that Pinchback had
resigned; they thought they were "electing
him over again. But Pinchback having re-
signed January II, his election on January II
to fill the vacancy thus created was necessa
rlly illegal; that election could only take
place on "the second Tuesday after notice"
Of the resignation had been given to the
Legislature Between the two stools the am
bilious gentleman has had fall
There is no doubt on this subject. The |
etter of the law is plain. Mr.. Sumner died |

On the 4th Of March, 1873, Henry Wilson
became Vice President, thereby vacating his
eat in the Senate; but, in view Of the law
was held that the election could not be
eld until the second Tuesday after notice of
he vacancy happening; so the election did
OF take place until March Is.
The Senate is relieved of his claim under

THE LOUISIANA SITUATION IN BRIEF.

The report of the New Orleans COMMITTEE
proves beyond doubt
l. That the last election in Louisiana was
in the words Of the committee, .'full. fair
free and peaceable
2. That it resulted in the election of a Demo
cratic majority of twenty-nine in the lowe,
| House of the Legislature
| g. That the report of the Returning Board
was fraudulent, unjust and contrary to the
very law under which it acted.
This carries US to the assembling of the
Legislature. Here we find these facts undis-
puted:
The Returning Board had prepared list
of one hundred and six members, of whom.
under its manipulations, tifty-three were Re-
publlcans, as was supposed, and tifty-three
democrats. Thus the board attempted to set
aside the will of the people of the State.
2. One hundred and six members met on
the 4th of January and proceeded to choose
Speaker, the Republicans present actually
taking part in the proceedings ny nominating
candidate for Speaker and voting for him.
by accepting appointments as part of Com
mlttee on Credentials, and organizing with
this committee, and by their votes in the
House on the Speakership giving quorum,
which the Democrats then present would not
alone have had. Wilt received tifty-tive
votes, Hahn Republican, two, and one was
blank; and ffty-six is the constitutional quo
rum. When the members were sworn in
fifty-one Democrats and five Republicans took
the oath, making an indispu table and regular
quorum of the House
g. The Legislature was thereafter dispersed
by United States troops.
4. The Republicans proceeded to organize,
but-here is the important and vital point
they had and have no quorum, and cannot,
therefore, act as Legislature They may
adjourn from day to day; but, under the
Louisiana Constitution, can do none of the
acts OF a Legislature
.. Hence Louisiana has to-day no regu-
arly organized and competent lower House |
of Legislature 1t cannot have a quorum. |
sven on the report of the Returning Board.
T. Hence the pretended election of Pinch
pack is a fraud and void
T. And finally, nothing is in the way of
ne assembling and constituting of legal
house except Federal bayonets. If Congress
viii remove them the Wilt House, the only
egular one. would at once assemble.-N y.
