Fish In the Delaware Streams.


MR.. EDIroR.-I send you communi-
cation on new subject as far as l am
concerned. generally write on npolitics
and peaches. This time it is fish. Some
few years back, l read that a Yankee
named Seth Green had discovered the
secret of Matching fish eggs, and therefore
he and the persons to whom he import
ed the secret, were going to supply all
the streams, creeks, rivers, bays, and
sounds with a full supply of fish. And
for the lastsfew years, seeing glass jars of
small fish pass down the railroad, agood
many stopping here to be transferred to
the Kent and Queen Annes Railroad to
be put out tthe men said who had them in
cllafge) In the mill ponds, Chester river,
and down the Delaware railroad to the
Nanticoke Ohoptank and Pocomoke, l con
cIuded that as my property in New Castle
county bordered on the mill ponds, and
| the open pond, cool body of spring wa
ter which may be dank at all times OF
year, would try to get some young fish.
1 wrote to the Maryland Commissioner
named Tyson, l think, describing the
the ponds, outlet and situation, and that
citizens of Maryland hshed in said pond
when they pleased His Highness never
answered my letter. One day saw a
man at the depot at this place, who had
cans of fish, and he promised to send me
fish if would pay expressage from Bal
timore. told him l would be glad to
do SO. That was the last heard Of him

NATIONAL THANKSGIVING.
PROCLAMATION

At no recurrence of the season which the devout
habit of religious people has made the occasion Tor
giving thanks to Almighty God and humbly nvok-
ing his continued favor has the material prosperity
enioved by our whole country been more conspicu-
GUS more manifold or more universal during the
past year, also, unbroed peace with all foreign ma
tions, the general prevalence of domestic tranquil
ty the supremacy and security of the great nsttu,
tions of civil and religious freedom, have gaddened
the hearts of people AMI confirmed ihelr at,
tachment to their government which wisdom ana
courage of our ancestors so fifty framed, ana the
wisdom and courage of their descendants have SO

and justice to successive generations.
Now, therefore, L, Rutherford B Hayes, Presldent

mighty God for his mercies, and to devoutly beseech
their continuance.
In witness whereof l have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States to be at

The Court Of Last Resort.

The question which the Supreme Court is
called upon 20 decide to-day involves nice
legal distinction, and it may be that, taking
the much-quoted decision of 1851 as a pre-
cedent, the court will find that it has no
jurisdiction in the matter. Whatever con-
clusion is arrived at by the eminent jurists
who have the case under consideration viii
be accepted by all fair-minded men of all
political parties as the proper legal action to
be taken. The fusion papers have taken
upon themselves to instruct the court in the
matter, and are verbose in commentary and
glaze upon the letter of the statutes. But
it is safe to say that the court knows itself
and does not stand in need Of instructions.
Should the Supreme Bench decide that it
has no authority to compel the Executive
Council to exhibit the returns no legal OBJ
stacles, apparently, will stand in the way of
the consummation of the usurpation which,
there are excellent reasons for believing, is
contemplated by the fusion leaders. Those
are the only obstacles the managers of the
conspiracy fear. Considerations of justice,
of fair-play, of expediency, have no weight
with them. If they can accomplish the
theft without incurring the penalty which
commonly attaches to the perpetration of
larceny they will make the venture. But
there is tribunal, the court of last resort
in our political system, to which an appeal
will be taken by the Republicans OF Maine.
It holds its session next September, and we
have confidence to believe that every mem
ber-elect of the Legislature who may be
uniustly counted out by Gov. Garcelon and
his Council will be returned to his seat by a
majority SO large that even the unscrupu-
lous political adventurers who now control
cur State government will not dare to dis
pute it.
