Thk Cojibtitution that Mr. Nor crow attempt
ed two yeare ego, to cot himself loose from a
depressing situation, but circumstances pre
vented. ft was hla avowed intention then, as it
is hla avowed intention now, to organize a
white man's party, but at the meeting which
he called for the purpose of setting the ball
in motion, the colored brother made his ap
pearance in force, and confusion prevailed.
The theory of Ur. Normas, as announced
In his first pronunciamento, is that there are
at least thirty thousand white republicans in
Georgia who act with the democratic party???
or, in any event, refuse to act with the repub
lican party because they have an uncontrolla
ble prejudice against coming into familiar
contact with the negro at the polls or else
where.
Mr. Norcross is very much in earnest, and
he has determined to reorganize a movement
which commends itself to bis inclination as
well as his judgment. It is an attempt to
draw the color line in the repub!Tim party
so as to give the white republicans greater
freedom of action. Whethsr It will ue suc
cessful remains to be seen. It ctunot in any
way affect the negro politicisin', for they are

???NRWS" in thb metropolis.
It is no wonder that our esteemed metro
politan contemporaries are anxious to have
their news copyrighted. A good deal of
especially that which they profess to receive
from their correspondents by cable, properly
comes under the head of fiction and can
copyrighted under the present law. We have
recently been much Interested in tho cable
telegrams and alleged extracts from foreign
journals reproduced in the leading New York
papers concerning Use movements of Miss
Julia Jackson, daughter of the famous Stone
wall Jackson. Thespecial foreign correspond
ents of our metropolitan contem
poraries???the correspondents who write
and telegraph tbelr foreign
ten from Brooklyn??? are generally
agreed that Miss Jackson is in Kurope. In
deed, they insist upon it, and tiardly a week
paws that her movements in England or
the continent are not elaborately described,
The other day we read in the New York
papers of the appearance of Miss Jackson
horseback in one of the London parks. Then
we read bow she had eclipsed several well-
known beauties in society. Afterwards came
descriptions of her tour to Faria and ltome,
and the great sensation site created in
various American colonics. The latest into!
ligence in regard to Min Jackson's move
ments in Europe we find in the columns
a metropolitan contemporary as follows:

ed lo reeall the convention for the purpose
of putting a third ticket in the Held. Among
tire principles enunciated are the abolition

THE UPHlblNO IN C IN Cl NAT Tl.
It is Impossible, at this writing, to say
whether the condition of affairs in Cincin
nati baa been exaggerated. Tbe ???queen
city of the west," as Beacon Smith is fond
of oalling It, it the etorm-eenter, the very
vortex, of eensationallam, and due allowance
for tblaifact mutt be made by thoae who are
interested in giving a reasonably correct In
terpretation to tbe popular uprising which
lias followed tbe verdict of the rulllans that
composed the Berner Jary.
Hour telegrams correctly represent the
situation, the uprising is something more
tlmu a display of lawleatnesi. It la an out
break imposing in iti proportions
and important in lit alms, and
It ought to be a terrible warning to that data
which, under cover ol legality, makes daily
and hourly attack* upon the well-being of
eociety. The jury system is bad enough in
all the states, and in the hands of criminal
lawyers who are shysters in principle, it has
been brought to tho very refiuement of cor
ruption. Tbe professional juryman basoomc
to be a recognised element in ih* administra
tion ol justice and where the professional
juryman is found It Is not difficult to find
shyster lawyers ready to profit by his corrup
tion.
The Jury In lbs llerner cate
???eerne t?? have been made up
almost wholly of professional jurors, and the
lawyers In tbe ease were not slow to take ad-
vantage of that fact. The uprising ol tho
people of the city represents something more
than the ebullition of a mob. It la a move
ment which nearly every elate sympathise
with, and the crowd wu composed of men
who were earnest and determined. The at
tack! of the police and the military, accord
ing to all accounts, bad little effect upon it,
and it seems to have the ayropathy and co
operation ol people ouuide tbe oily.
The aim of the crowd wu to secure the
murderer Berner. Falling in this, It la to be
regretted that It did not turu its attention to
the ruffian* who compoaed the jury and tbe
Dwyers who were willing to tak* advantage
of the operation* of such a criminal combi
nation. Tho neoeulty of auch au uprising,

TILDBts UNO VICTORY.
Here are tome figures that giro food for
reflection.
In 1872 Grant (rep.) carried New Y???ork over
Greeley (dem.) by 53,455 majority. In 1876
Tilden (dem.) carried New York over Hayes
(rep.) by 32,742 majority. In 1882 Garfield
(rep.) carried Now York over Hancock (dem.)
by 21,033 majority.
To summarize: In 1872 the republicans
carried New York by a rousing majority. In
1676 Tilden swept the state for tbe democra
cy, makiog a change of nearly 109,000 rotes.
In 1880 tbe democrats, under other leader
ship than Tllden's, lost tbe state again by a
large majority.
To make another comparison. In 1872
Governor Bix carried New York (or the re
publicans by 50,600 majority. In 1874 Tilden
led tbe democrats and beat Bix by 62,000,
making a change of over 100,000 votes. In
1880, as stated above, the invincible Tilden
wu not in the lead and the slate was lost
again.
Who can doubt after reflecting on these
figures that victory can be uaured to the
democrats with Tilden, and that it is endan
gered under any other leadership. It is es
sential to the democrats that they carry New
York. In two cases Tilden hu taken the
state out of republican bands, only to tee it
revert to them when he wu put aside. In
like manner we carried Connecti
cut (or the democracy in 1870,
though Grant bad carried it for the republi
cans four years before, and though Hancock
lost it tour years after. In like manner, he
carried Indiana In 1876, though Grant had
carried It by 23,000 four years before and
though Hancock loat it by 7,000 majority four
years alter.
In every instance???and these are the states
in which tbe battle must be lost or won???
Tilden and victory go together. He was pre
ceded by democratic defeat and followed by
It. Between disasters he stood invincible.
If he will take tbe standard ones more, he
will lead tbe party to victory onco again,
That's why we favor Ids nomination.

ENSILAGE FOR E$f>CK
Thera was printed in these columns some
weeks ago an article in which it was hiatod
that the ensilage system had proven to bo at
leant a partial failure among the dairymen
of New York atate. It was stated that the
storing ot green truck iu silos generates
bacteria which became absorbed in the
blood of stock and finally do deadly damage.
It was said, morever, that a number o(
creameries bad ordered tbelr customers to
furnish thorn with no more milk from cows
fed on ensilage.
It seems now that these statements were
grossly exaggerated. We have before us a
synopsis ot the proceedings of the third
ensilage congress held In New York city on
the 23d of January. It was the purpose of
tho meeting to bring out new tacts** to
the general result* of the aysteiu without
accumulating unnecessary evidence. It ap
pear* that no creamery has mads objeetion to
ensilage, but a condensed milk factory, after
twoyeara' use of tntilag* milk, bad received
complaint that their cans of condensed milk
did not keep so wall as formerly. The factory
thereupon had directed the farmers supply
ing it with milk to omit filling their silos.
Of fifteen farmers furnishing this factory,
seven preferred to hold on to their silos and
risk finding another market for their milk,
Tbe report of tbe ensiitge congress, from
which we obtain the tacts used here, is fur
nished to the Agricultural Keview by Mr.
James B. Brown, who is the originator of the
congress. Mr. Brown says that farmers will
travel further and fast longer to discuss the
abject of ensilage than any other farm topic.
Mr. J. Winslow Jouet, of Maine, stated at
the first ensiitge congress, that he had been
engaged in filling a tiio for several months
srith green mtize husks, and the delay did
not injure tbe quality of the contents. Not
withstanding that tbe authoritiea. on the
subject recommend rapid filling ti
avoid beatiog, Mr. Brown's ex
ptrience it conclusive, so tar as he it con
cerned, that slow filling, resulting in a heat
so great as to be unbearable to the hand, per
mitting each day's layer to beat before
trampliog, makes the sweetest ensilage.
Professor Manly Miles, of Amherst, gave
tbe third congress the scientific reason for the
benefit of heating, which he bad also corrob
orated by his own experiments and observa
tions. Tbe professor suggests that this heat
generated by bacteria, which in turn kills
them. Mr. John Mayer, superintendent of
tbe Havemeyer farm at Mahwah, N. J., pre
sented a sample of fragrant maize
ensilage. Mr. Mayer hat twenty-
four silos under his management,
aud tbe ensilage, which he declares Increase*
the yield ol milk more tnan any other food,
cos s only (t 75 a ton. Mr. Mayer says that
with hia silos he can keep fifteen times at
many cows on the same number of acres.
Br. Tanner laid that to use his ensilage in
fattening bis stock paid him better than to
make milk without ensilage. Mr. Joseph
Cobb, of Norfolk, V*., had traveled widely
among itoek farms, and had found the beet
condition and tbe highest health in the atock
that had received rations of ensilage.
The general testimony was that where en-
