Chairman Packard for the appoint
ment of Mr.. Lowell on the State
Central Committee and smrms that
he (Lowell) can never receive the
nomination of Jefferson parish to
the Legislature, "although backed
by a corner Of the Custom-house
and the Governor of the State"
In an article on "Beecher md
Tilton" the ST. Charles Herald, ex-
Governor Hahn's paper, sums up
the evidence and thus deduces. We
may add that VIC do not remember
to have seen in any southern journ-
al SO justly able and excellent an
editorial on this subject;
but for ourselves, ws take great
courage on MIR. Beecher's account.
We begin to see his character
emerge from the fire as bright as
refined gold, and anticipate. that the
very relief in store for his friends and
the very reaction that must set in
among his enecaies will make him
the most illustrious example Of for
bearance, .meekness, patience. for
giveness, brotherly love and Chris
tian charity that the world has seen
in modern times. If all this trans
pires, what a glorious and inspiring
lessoni it will teach! How it will make
men revenge the truth and love the
follower, who, s1nitten upon one
cheek, turns the other also. And
in view of the ingratitude, the re-
venge and the wicked calumny that
have sprung forth like ills from
Pandora's box, how it will lead poo-
pie Of sense and principle to abllor
that enc fatal wickedness exenp1i-
fed by Tilton--thc blight of man.

The independent" Times of this
city is aggrievod. Wicked contcm-
porarics like the Bulletin anl: Pic
oyune have striven to ban the Gin
tonian journal, and placing it at dis
advantage have So. wounded the
delicate sensibilities of the Times
that It thus retorts:.
"Wc publish a paper for ou1
friends, not for GU: enemies, nor
for those weaknoed persons who do
not know theft own opinions, o.,
knowing them, are too ti,A;a TO avow
them; and those who, while they
do not support it, expect to change
its course by railing at i, exhibit; q
stupidity as der ~ a. their in,oler-
ance,"
Now in the above expression we
confess our disappo;ntmo Our
idea was tho Times G;ssayed to be q
newspaper. It seems we were mis-
taken. The paper avows itself an
organ for SO SMALL a circle that it
soon must go out Of existence. Ia,
