The New York World, the leading
Democratic paper Of New York, contains
an articls in last Thursday issue under
the above heading so pertinent aud
generally applicable, that We give the
opening and concluding paragraphs;
The campaign, which is now over, has
had the effect Of bringing out, in g very
sharp and strong way, the relations OF
newspapers to political parties. Il is
evident that these have altered very de-
oidedly during the last few years. News
papers used to occupy a confidential and
dependent position towards political psr.
ties. The editor was generally a mem
Der of the local Committee or at all
events an active and influential politi.
clan. Generally his paper was in good
part sustained by political contributions,
and was given up from the beginning of
a political campaign until the end, to
saying those things which the leaders OF
its party desired to be believed, aud to
denying those things which they desired
TO be disbeiieved.
OF late years very different notions
has come to be accepted Of the functions
ever OF a political newspaper, at least in
our great cities. Its first business is to
be q newspaper; that is to say, to furnish
to its readers the earliest, fullest and most
accurate possible reports Of interesting
facts, whether they make for or make
against the political theories which the
newspaper considers itself bound to up
hold. A newspaper which does this may
take, after doing this, whatever ground it
likes; a newspaper which does not do this,
or which does not aim to do il, does rot
deserve to be considered q newspaper
at all. Newspapers are generally adj
dressed to classes Of readers, each edi-
tor assuming that bis readers in general
think the same things with himself about
the interests Of the republic, Bat it is no
longer prudent for an editor to assume
lha, his readers are blind partissns who
desire to be kept in the dark aud d.
luded about things which they are inter
ested in. His first dOty is to tell them
the truth as nearly as be eau arrive at it,
whatever bis opinion or theirs may be as
to what the truth oughtto be.
This change tor the better, as a change
for the better it certainly is, in the rels-
lions Of newspapers to their readers, has
never been so plainly illustrated as dor.
ing the campaign nov brought to & close
The newspapers which have borne it in
miRd have held the respect and conf
6enee Of the community. The newspl-
pers which have disregarded it have lost
their credit.
But The World has not forgotten, aud
it does not mean to forget that the frat
duty Of a newspaper is 70 give its read
ers the news, be that news good or bad
according TO its way OF thinking, aud
lha, the second duty OF q newspaper,
not less Imperative than the first, is to
treat si men, DO matter WHIST We may
Of their opinions, with courtesy
and csndor; to strike, Wnen it strikes,
shove and not below the belt, aud to re-
member always that the interests OF the
in general are quite as important

WINTER CARE or COWS.

Too much care cannot be given the
milch cows during the winter months,
but it is too often the case that they
are slighted. Let us stop and consider
the value of a good milch COW during
the winter, and if we appreciate good
rich milk in winter as we ought, sse.
will soon come TO the conclusion that
she is of great value. The COW should
be well supplied with slop from the
kitchen, mixed in with meal or bran,
and have plenty of good hay to eat,
and good dry bed to lie on, both for
the convenience Of the mixer and the
comfort of the cow. DO not keep q
cow in cold stable; see that she is
comfortable. And besides this, ono
thing more is very essential, and that
is to card the animal at least once
