Mr.. LEA's REcEprIoN-The Rev. Jno.
W. Lea. on the occasion of his recent re-
movaa to harrisburg, found the Rec.ory
of Trinity (Ep;scopaD Church beautifully
papered and painted throughout, and gas and
water put in each room, with non freezing
hydrant placed near the kitchen door, whilst
in the pantry were ? bbls. of -four, 5 hams,
coffee, tea, sugar, crackers, pickles, &c, &C.,
besides wood and coal, in the collar. The
worthy pastor of Trinity, in returning thanks
for the kindness thus exhibited, says: ''such
thoughtful and timely gifts are not to be
under estimated for their intrinsic value, but
perhaps the encouragement they afford in the
kind feeling manifested is the part most
cherished. May the donors be blest, and may
all ministers fare likewise"

euCe.

We do not agree with our friend,
tho Shreveport Times, in its summin.
up OF packard's mcanin. in his letter
to Mr.. Leonard.
To us, the sum and substance APP
pears to be about this: Packard pro-
poses to "infuse" Il few more new Of
ficiaIs into Ills radical party; to "rc-
ward' them with Office; to break
down the white vote with spccious
promises, and thereby give life and
vitality to an already dead party.
The whole move is intended to
benefit the negro alone ; discontinue
lcgislatins and taxing that good may
come to him and his. The white
property owner is not considered at
all, on the contrary, it is plainly stated
that this new departure is intended
to "promots tho interest )" to "pro-
mote the welfare" of the negro by
"insurins government honest and
scrupulous to protect his (the negro's)
person md properW,' and to be, at
the same time, Gin accord with the
National Republican party" If we
comprehend the spirit Of the letter, it
means, that we shall embrace the
creed and party, that has for eight
long and dreary years, done every
thing in its power to crush us out,
and in this grand and glorious fratcr-
nal exhibition, Mr.. Leonard is asked
to be one of the tigure-leads.
Packard asks us to reIinQuish the
reius of victory to such men as he
may select, (whom the negroes will
reward, for TINS betraying their cau&e
and people) and lie promises reform
reform to benefit the negro, and pro-
tect his person and property-when
the cause for all the evils we now
labor under, is just such reform too
much legislation to protect the negro,
and none to benefit the Statc-too
much rew0rd to those who arc the
"scrupulous' friends of the African
citizen.
This IS what Mr.. Packard means to
do, all his promises are like "ropes of
s:snd'-easily made and as easily bro
ken.
