nation, and unanimously feaffirming ala foat
principles-evcr fresh ever free, and ever sound
to which the Wing party Of Vermont has so
steadfstly adhered, the fears of timid friends
and the hopes of our enemies have been alike
disappointed. United, firm and fearless, the
Wings Of Vermont viii vie with each other in
contendng FOR another and nobler victory fol the
common cause. Last year they carried the
State Ticket by a small majority. this year, they
should not be satisfied with one vote less than
five thousand majonty--nnd they ought not to
brag with one vote less than seven thousand
Wings Of Vermont this is no time for a small
victory; no time to be content with holding your
own; no time to think Of anything short Of a re-
union of the ancient aud genuine Wing strength
of the State upon the ancient platform. The
Wing party stands where 1t has ever stood, I'M
changed and unchangcable deserving, as we
cannot help believing that it will receive, the
confidence and support Of every freeman Of the
State who has sustained it, and Of hundreds, aye
some thousands, whose votes for the last few
years have been carried against it by unparal-
leled trickery and treachery. Let no, the Wing.
be content with an easy victory: let Us strive iol

Needle Mandatory The Newark Advert
ser says the only needle mandatory in this
country is in this city-estahhshed by gentle
man from Manchester, Eng The manner of
making needles is described as very interesting
some sixteen different process being necessa-
nv for their completion. The wire from which
they are made is imported from England. It is
cut into lengths sufficient for two needles each
and after being rubbed straight they are pointed
upon stone at the rate of one hundred per mi
mute. They are then stamped with impressions
preparatory for the eyes which are punched by
a press at the rate of fifty per minute and then
strung upon wires and placed IN another machine
to be filed and fashioned into the forms of need
les The hardening is now done by hot firnace
and they are afterwards tempered, Strengthened
and gathered into punches Of about 10000 each,
which are saturated with oil and emery tied in
cloth and placed in a trough with a heavy plank
moving backward and forward over them, SO that
after some nine days chatting in this manner
they are relieved of impensctons and rendered
smooth enough for the final polishing. Tne
temper is then taken out of the eyes, and they
are drilled to prevent Their cutting the thread.
