The Tide Turning against the Tichborne
Claimant

The claimant in the Tichborne case
is beginning to feel the turn of the
tide. An attempt to create demon
stration in his favor at Sheffield broke
down miserably, scarcely anybody at
tending. In addition to this, two of
his counsel, Mr.. Osborne and Mr..
Streeten, have refused to act any longer
as trustees of his defense fund.

loose, snowy action, which would lead
the casual observer to imagine he wss
going at tremendous pace; but few
miles of fast work would make him
drag his legs heavily after him, and,
in a long run, he would give up with
downright exhaustion before his Jour-
ney would be more than half performed.
He might have great speed for fat,
short races, but he would not be fit for
any other purpose.
MosT practical farmers will be likely
to laugh at the idea of feeding cows
allowed the run of luxuriant pastures
with anything more than the grass
But inasmuch as over and above what
is required for the mere maintenance
of the animal, quantity of grass equal
to forty pounds of dried hay, is required
for the production of sixteen quarts of
milk daily, it becomes a question
whether the natural forage may not be
proftably supplemented with other
feed of less bulky character. Oil
cake, either fax or cotton, is evidently
well adapted for this, but care must be
taken in apportioning the quantity.
For it has been found that while, for
one or two years. the flow of milk will
be increased by such oily feed, too
great supply will at last tend to the de,
position of fat instead of the increase
of butter in the milk. In this connec-
ton may be noted some curious items
anent the milk yielding and the fatten-
ing properties of COWS. It has been
proved by actual trial that with given
ratio of food those animals that gave
from three to four gallons per day va
ried only slightly in weight through
out the season. Others which the daily
product was from twelve quarts down
to five gained in weight without excep-
ton. This gain, averaging the milk
per COW at two gallons day, was from
seven to eight pounds of flesh per
week. One very great, although incl
dental, advantage of extra feeding for
grazing animals lies in the continual
improvement of the pastures, all those
components of the extra feed not util-
lied at once in the production of flesh
or milk being distributed to the soil
as most efficient fertilizing agents.

Partisan Partially in Politics.

Probably nothing makes us more clear
ly see or find defects or see or find vir-
tues in our political acquaintances, than
a change in their politics. Greeley, Sum
ner, Trumbull, Schurz, Banks, aud many
other Republicans Of more or less prom.
inence, who are now identified with the
coalition. have suddenly, to the majority
Of the Republican newspapers aud orators
Of the country, become persons Of poor
ability, and NJ statesmau>hip, and some
of them little better than swludlers while
Gen. Dix and the Democrats who have
come over to the support Of Gen Grant.
have as suddenly been transformed into
noble statesmen, pure patriots and honest
men. This seeing men through new eyes
is not, however, the trick Of Republicans
alone. When Democrats praise Horace
Greeley aud Horace Greeley praises
Democrats when the hard shell old
Democracy Of Massachusetts, with "tre
mendous enthusiasm nominate Charles
Sumner for Governor, and Charles Sum
ner writes a labored speech to prove that
these same Democrats are the true friends
ofliberty and equal rights; little more
can be expected in the way of startling
Transformations in politics. Democratic
newspapers row praise Gen. Banks as a
statesman profoundly wise concerning the
foreign relations Of country; the same
papers few months ago made his foreign
craftsmanship the butt Of their ridicule ;
and Banks will lose credit in Republican
quarters just 10 proportion as he gains in
Democratic praises Republicans used
to call Sumner statesman now he is
only rhetorican. They used to call
Schurz most brilliant and effective orator
fit to sound the keynote Of the Chicago
Republican Convention which first NOM
mated Gen. Grant now he is only a
word-monger. They used to call Banks
one Of the first orators in the country
now he is only an utterer of platitudes.
They used to call Trumbull pure states
man now he is denounced as a swindler
and cheat. They used to call Kilpat-
rick dashiug cavalry officer and most
brilliant and effective campaign speaker
now he is a coward, a liberiine, a liar,
and slanderer. Now, we are not say
ing which Of these judgments is the correct
one as to all these men, for that is not
the purpose Of this writing; but it is
tolerably clear that both cannot be correct
and just estimates Of the men in question
If man leaves his old associates, almost
Immediately they begin to tell stories

this seems to be more true political as
sociations than of any other. All on our
side in politics are honest and virtuous
and wise and patriotic, and all on the
other side are just the reverse; and
especially the reverse if they have chang,
ed their political associations. This eau
safely be said, we think, to be unreason,

Horace t:reeley's Secession Principles.

Horace Greeley in his Pittsburgh
speech, last Thursday, seemed to reaifirm
his position Of 1860 with regard to peace
able secession, by repeating what he then
said, and endorsing it His statement Of
his position was as follows
81 demanded that there should be an
open, free discussion, that Southern pco-
pic might have an honest, uuterrifed, I'M
constrained vote, aud if they approved, if
the people of the South said they wanted
disunion, would consent to it,"
While we accorded to him honesty oil
conviction in taking this position, we
said as every one else said, that one
who holds such cxcrable opinions, SO sui
cidal, SO abhorrent to the spirit of our in-
stitutions, SO lacking in all the essential
qualities Of craftsmanship, so dangerous
to our permanency as government,
ought not to be the Chief Executive Of
our Government by the votes OF the peo-
pie.
But this position was so clearly in op.
position to the present sentiment oil the
country that Mr.. Greeley, either by his
own motion or by the pressure OF friends
repudiated it, next day, in . speech at
Cincinnati, in the following strong lam
guage:
'Tvllvr-. itiaens,I utterly Iopudietc anu
condemn that sentiment. | do not be-
lieve that one State or that ten States or
even a majority of all the States have a
moral, legal, or constitutional right to
dissolve our Union.
That Union is founded on Constitu-
ton which is charter of government not
a mere league. 1t does not create a
league merely, nor contederacy, but a
nation under government of limited and
defined powers,.out of unlimited duration.
| believe that the union is not only des-
tined to be, but was intended to be, per-
petual and believe that our great civil
war, if there ever was any reasonable
doubt as to the nature Of that Union, has
settled that doubt forever. That Slavery
is dead and that the nation abides forever
is the sum and substance Of the verdict
pronounced through the issues Of our
great contest
Whatever else has been accomplished
in the way of progression of ideas during
the campaign, nothing is more important
or suggestive, than this acceptance oil the
verdict of the people on the subject OF
state rights, by the party of the rebellion
As VIC see by the above extract, the rep
resentativc of that party, of course speak
ing with the approva! Of that party,takes
the most advanced position on this sub.
ject in language not to be mistaken, and
that too, in direc. opposition to the posi-.
ton originally taken and until recently
adhered to, by him.
While we earnestly desire the success
of that party which has been right all the
time and needed no conversion, and are
not willing to trust with power those con-
verified only on the evening of election
we rejoice at the evidences we have Of
returning sense, and derive the usual con-
solutions received by friends from death

We are glad to see that the recent ex-
posure of the abuses to which Rev. Peter
Il. Shaw, an aged Presbyterian clergy
man, has been subjected in being uni ust-
ly confined for five years in the Vermont
insane asylum, is waking up the people OF
the state to the necessity for an overhaul

Of the asylum has always had the conh'

cry that a perfectly sane man-whose
sanity even the superintendent of the asy-

would be good plan to see whether
there are more cases of the same sort aud
