THE SCANDAL REVIPED,


Very impressive must II have been
to hear Mrs. Moulton respond to the
demand Of Plymouth church, that she
should show cause why hcr name
should not be dropped from the roll
for pbsenteeism. The little woman in
firm voice replying; "Bccause she
hneo the pastor, Bcechcr, to be guilty
of adultrey and false swearing" has
opened up tho scandal again in all its
length aud breadth, and the silent vote
of Plymouth dropping her name in
spite of her protestations of loyalty &c
the church, will not by any means shut
down the re.opencd hood.gates The
Congregational ministers, TO whom Mrs
Moulton has appealed, are now 10 take
up and investigate the subject. We
were afraid the virlsal verdict Of mot
proven" which the Brooklyn jury
passed upon Mr. Beecbcr's case, would
never give it its quietus, and it is now
evident that Mr. Bechcr will need to
have n very long term Of life vouch-
safed for him, II be is to live 1t down"

MEETING OF FOREIGN CITIZENS.

There was large gathering of foreigners
at II o'clock this morning in parlor 2, st
Charles Hotel, to protest against the SANDER
Gus dispatches sent to Washington by p. II
Sheridan against the people of this State.
On motion, Mr.. Vernon was then unani
mously chosen chairman. Mr.. Vernon, on
proposing and seconding the resolution, a
copy of which follows, said, 'Our object will
meet with sympathy. 1 don't think it is the
intention to 80 further than to adopt it and
then leave it to the press to give it publicity
The following resolution was then read and
adopted:
Resolved That our position as foreigners
residing and carrying on business in Louisi-
ana and subject to its laws, does not permit
as as a body to express any opinion upon the
political question now unfortunately disturb
ing this city and State, or to take any part
therein, but having read telegram purporting
to have been sent by Gen. 2. H. Sheridan to
the Secretary of War at Washington, stigma
tizing the community OF which we form
part as defying all lawful authority, by lend
ing itself to murder and other crimes, we
hereby declare that the character thus given
to ourselves and the vast number OF honor
able and law-abiding men and citizens with
whom we are brought into daily contact is not
consistent with the truth, and is calculated to
injure and degrade us in the eyes of the bust
ness community at large, as well as our
countrymen at home and of society in gen
eraL
Mr.. A. Vallen then moved that a committee |
be appointed to translate the resolutions into |
three languages, French, German and Spanish,
which was unanimously adopted and the
meeting adjourned to meet at o'clock this
evening, when a much larger attendance is
expected.

KELLOGG RISES TO EXPLAIN.
After the Congressional Commit
tee Have Left, He is Will.
ing to Abide their
Decision.

In order to afford Kellogg an opportunit
to explain his noncompliance with his ow
proposition to the Congressional Committee
that he would accept their decision as to til
legality Of his claim to the governorship,
reporter Of the BULLETIN had the followin
interview with him yesterday.
Kellogg's crowd came out strong yesterda
and got to work in lively style.
Reporter Kellogg, have called to as
certain your reasons for refusing to place tn
matter Of your election in the hands of the
Congressional Committee.
Kellogg-I hardly understand your mean.
ing, as the committee is still empowered t.
decide the result of the election of 1872.
Reporter-Do understand you to say that
it was not your fault that the committee did
not take action in the matter?
Kellogg-Precisely SO it was entirely the
fault Of the opposition. They evaded the
question until it was too late.
Reporter-Will you be kind enough to ex-
plain?
Kellogg -On the 3Oth Of December, 1 sent
a personal letter, privately, to the committee,
proposing to submit to their judgment the
question of my election On the LIST of Janu-
airy sent formal letter to the same effect,
which, believe, at the instance of the friends
OF the opposition was held over.
On Saturday night went before the COM
mittee and insisted that my proposition
should be read, which was accordingly done.
My object was, if possible, to bring about a
solution Of this election problem before the
meeting of the Legislature.
Reporter course, Mr. Kellogg, your de-
sire was, if possible, to prevent bloodshed,
even if it cost your abdication,?
Kellogg-Well no; not exactly that. be-
lieved that had been rightfully elected and
the decision Of the Congressional Committee
would alter in large measure the opinion
now entertained OF me by the opposition.
You must remember that / made these
overtures anterior to the coming of Sheridan
and firmly believe that if the opposition had
these troubles (refering to the.pos-
session Of the State-House by United States
troops) would have been obyiated.
Reporter you lay all the blame on
The opposition
Kellogg Decidedly SO. I made the propo-
'ition in good faith, and even now am still
Wiling to abide by the decision Of the COM
nittee.
This ended the interview.

DEATH OF W. S. PIKE. ESQ,

1t is with deep regret that we announce thu
death OF Mr.. W. 5. Pike, at S:2O A. NJ yester
day. There were many encouraging signs tina
he would survive the sudden attack Of day
or two since, but it seems the hopes of re.
covery were delusive-it was only the appear.
ance OF that calmness which precedes death.
MIR. Pike was well known here and through
out the State as one of our very first citizens,
in all the useful pursuits of life He was an
earnest advocate of enterprises of every kind
which had the tendency to promote the pros
perity of the city and State.
His benevolence was only bounded by his
means. He gave freely, and assisted in all
charitable works. He was in every sense of
the word good man.
The loss of such citizen at this crisis in
our affairs is truly to be deplored. Ever
ready with cheering words Of advice, quick
to respond substantially to any call
looking to the promotion OF public veal,
W. S. Pike, Esq, occupied position in the
hearts Of the people Of the whole State, which
will now remain long vacant. TO his sor-
rowing family now buried in the realization of
their great loss, we tender our deepest SYM
pathies and condole sincerely with the ex-
tensive circle of friends now deprived of the
society and affections of one of natures noble

A New RIFLE. PAris journal describes a
new rifle, Of novel construction, recently in.
vented in that city. According to this ac-
count the gun presents nothing remarkable
exteriorly, but the lock is so arranged that
the breech is opened by cooking the piece
and, the charge being introduced, the breech
is closed and the gun fired by touching the
trigger. The cartridge consists Of hollow
leaden cone filed with powder, and closed at
the base by piece of cork At the moment
the cartridge is introduced into the breech,
the powder escapes by small hole in the
cork, and an imperceptible ball of fulminat-
ing powder, which forms the printing, takes
its former position. The triple action Of
cooking, loading and firing is thus effected
so that man with but slight
experience can fire twenty rounds minute
The cartridges are stored in an iron tube,
which is placed parallel with the barrel, and
contains thirty balls, SO that the piece may
be fired as many times almost without any in
terval. and without removing the stock from
the shoulder, there being nothing to be done
but to cock and pull the trigger.
