MORNING LEADER.
Reception OF Pars0n BrOWnlOw at Gran
nnnEa...L I.ndIcnnu. acann-

nommitles nnnointed TO reoei,

LBrom the Detroit Free Press.l
Fhs committee appointed to receive Par
son BroWnloR at Grand Rapids, the other
day, performed q comedy Of errors which
was extremely amusing to those who wit
messed it. Deeply impressed with the i'm
portance Of the event as an era in the his
tory Of that usually quiet city, they assem-
bled in the morning and arranged the
preliminaries and at nine o'clock took an
omnibus for the depot, which is nearly q
mile from town. Upon arriving there,
they ranged themselves and waited with
feTerish anxiety for the train, which was
a little behind time. As the cars came up,
the committee formed themselves into
semicircle on the platform near the track.
The chairman, a short, Pumblechoohan
sort of q man, standing in the centre,
speech in hand, ready to pounce upon the
parson as soon as he appeared. About the
first man to alight was Parson BroWnlow,
but as the committee did not happen to
know him from any other man," he was
allowed to pass quietly round to the rear.
Four or five more people appeared, and
then a Well-dressed gentleman stepped out
followed by a servant bearing his valise.-
A committee man poked the chairman, the
chairman nodded, and as soon as the lndl-
vidual alighted, he commenced reading the
welcome address but before he had fin
ished the first paragraph, he was astOnish-
ed by the announcement from the stranger
that he wasn't Parson Brownlow, but the
agent of Holloway's Pills. The chairman
opened his mouth in Amusement but at this
point, Mr.. Brownlow, who had been watch
ing the proceedings, came forward, and in
that they had better 90 to the hotel, and
he would listen TO the address when they
got there. So the party took possession Of
the committee omnibus and drove of, some
Of them feeling decidedly fat and more es-
peoially the chairman, who had made such
a ludiorous mistake in the presence of
large crowd Of spectators. He will prob
ably not hear the last Of his attempt to eu-
logiEe the agent Of Holloway's pills.

Unwelc0me Intelligence.

How any sane men in the South
can still entertain views held by them
in the beginning of our declaration Of
maintaining the rights of the South,
we cannot imagine, they opposed the
course adopted by their respective
States, and would now as then, if the
fear Of just punishment did not stare
them in the face, oppose us. From
the following, which we find in the
Jefferson Herald and Gazette, it too
plainly exhibits the fact that there
exists in the bosoms Of many men in
our Confederacy, hatred to our
cause, which no Southern born or
true son of the South by adoption
would evince.
"a distressing affair took place. as
we arc automatically informed, at the
winter quHrtels of Col. Locke's cav
airy regiment in Red River County
a few davs since. Two Of the com
panies attached to the Regiment,
both from Rusk county and command
ed respectively by Capts. Mcknight
and Redwine, one of which was COM
posed of co-operationists and the other
of original secessionists, quarreicd
upon matters connected with old po-
litical differences, which ended i'll Il
fight, in which eighteen were kifled
and sixteen wounded.
