with unusual care. Two year old trees
are preferable to older ones. They are
cheaper at the nursery-are easier and

CHANGE OF OPINION ON SLAVERY

The n. Y. Post calls attention to the great
change of opinion in regard to Slavery that
has taken place within the last few months
It says:
A few years ago, when Mr.. Putnam, the
publisher. with a decision and dsinterest-
edness which did him great honor, insisted
that his magazine, then the leading period
ical of the country, should freely remark
upon all matters of public interest, other
publications of the kind stared aghast at
the audacity. But now, the Knickerbocker,
Brownson's Quarterly. Harper's Weekly.
Frank Leslies Journal, illustrated Meas.
in short, nearly every periodical ofinfluence,
not excepting the more enterprising Sunday
papers, openly denounce Slavery. 1t is
only a wear since we heard one of the most
venerable of our clergymen announce, with
some. spirit, that he would never in his life
refer to the question; but on Thanksgiving
dav, he, in common with nearly every cler-
gyman in this city aud Brooklyn, shot the
heaviest bolts of an indignant eloquence
against the handspring of treason. Mr..
Curtis, who was mobbed for touching the
delicate question in lecture, spoke last
week to a crowded. fashionable and delight
ed audience. The building could not con-
tain those who wished to hear Hon. Cbas.
Sumner. Is .ffsn sir ~ ssa
Among our conspicuous men, the change
is even more remarkable. They no longer
conceal. or qualify their sentiments on the
origin or nature of this war. No man of
eminence among US has hitherto occupied a
more conservative position than the most
elegant of our rhetoricians, Edward Everett;
and yet Mr.. Everett, as we are told, regards
this war as the certain doom of Slavery.
Mr.. Bancroft, the historian, is a cautious as
we'll as profound thinker; but Mr.. Bancroft
was jealous and emphatic, in his Cooper
institute speech, in his demands for an
Anti-Slavery policy. General Butler, long
disting uished leader of the Massachusetts
Democracy, invented the doctrine of ICON
trabands'' in his application to fugitive
slaves; and Col Cochrane. of the same po-
litical school, addresses his soldiers in the
field on the necessity of turning slaves to
our use. instead of allowing them to be used
to our injury. ases e| a
| We might cite, both from public and pri
vate life, thousand other instances of the
same kind. but we confine ourselves to these
because they are already more or less noto-
rlous. - .gsiz ~

GOVERNMENT ON HORSEBACK.

Our four leading potentates at Washing
ion--Lincoln, Seward. Cameron and Me-
Clellan-as they look on horseback, are thus
cleverly sketched by Stedman, in his CORE
spondence with the World:
he Clellan came on the field at eleven
O'Clock lat the late review }, and was re-
ceived with salutes from the artillery pres
ent; batteries firing on the right and left,
confronting each other, and converting the
review, for the moment, into the aspect of

by Messrs. Lincoln, Cameron and Seward.
on horseback, and escorted by his full staff,
he galioped at a spirited rate up and down
the long battalions. His style of action pre-
scented a contrast to the stolidness with
which he made previous reviews The
President looked we'll in the saddle-much
better than he ever looked on any other
pubic occasion. He is an excellent horse
man, and grace, impossible as it may seem,
becomes Lincolnian attribute when the
Executive legs are spurred and stirruped.
Gen. Cameron and Gov. Seward seemed less
at ease in their unusual occupation. AS the
distinguished heads Of the army passed
swiftly through the lines, cheer after cheer
arose in waves, which followed the caval-
cade as billow rises on either side of a
great ships course. I thought that clear
pride flushed across the Presidents face,
making him almost handsome, as he saw
and heard the mig htiness of the legions sent
from the North for the protection of bis
charge. AS for Mcclellan, at this moment
he entered into the splendid enthusiasm of
tie occasion, and spurred his black charger
at the head of the staff with dash and an
imation which should have been caught by
some artist for spectacular war-palnting.
Afterward, when each regiment had been
passed by the young commander, and be
had taken his position on the left of the
field, in order that the whole army might
! pass before him as it retired, his face be-
came reposeful and content. He was more
than satisfied with the condition of his SOL
diers, felt that he could handle them, and
no doubt felt a desire to do so. What dra-
matte interest centers around this man
What shall be his future-glory or forget
fulness ? But we strew flowers, and wish
