The Next President.

The following timely suggestions from the Rich
mond Enquirer cannot be too extensively copied:
The Democracy is now one determined, compact,
and national party. Sectional feuds and sectional
feelings are obteraed and forgotten. is the par
ty of the Constitution and the country-the only
sheetanchor of hope to The conservative and the pa
triotc. Let us endeavor to preserve the unity and
integrity, divide ii by discussions to the supe
ror claims of the North and South to the next
Presidency. The Democratic party knows no North:
no South 1t recognises no sectional, no personal,
claim to the Presidency. When the nominating con,
yontion meets, let it select lis candidate with sole
reference to the good of the country. Let us excite
as little personal sectional prejudice in the mean
time as possible, so that may conduct the canvass
with the same zeal, devotedness, and harmony that
we now practice If the friends of the many dis
tnguished men who have been suggested as candi-
dates choose to present their claims let them do so
without disparagng the merits claims of others
Above all things however, let avoid raising! the
sectional question of the claims of North or South to
the office The office belongs TO the country, not to
sections Get the right man, and he will be sure to
do equal justice TO all sections"

Foreign Items,


The Paris correspondent Of the New York Post
says:
The failure of the Russian arms in the last cam
paign is attributed to two principal causes by the few
Russians still remaining at Paris The first Isl in
not marching directly upon Constantinople before it
was put in a condition to be defended. The second
of their msfortunes is owing to the loss of time
IN preliminary negotiations, and in the delays pro-
duCed by the transportation of large bodies of troops
overland. There is another reason, OF still higher
importance, which initiates also against the policy
pursued by the Russian government for several years
past. Instead of amusing itself with putting enor-
nous armies foot it Dug ht it is said to have been
building railroads to the Crmea so that the Russian
FORCES might he transported without delay from one
point OF the empire to another, and thus blng aid to
We valiant defenders of the Tauric CherOnese. AS 1t

Making n Needle.

wonder If any little girl no may read this, ever
thought how many people arc all the time at work
IN making the things which she every day uses
What can be more common, ana, you may think,
more simple, than needle Yet, if YOU do not know
it, can tell you that it takes great many per ons
to make a needle, and good deal of time too. Let
us take peep into needle factory. In going over
the premises we must pass hither and thither and
walk INTO the next street and back again, and take
drive to a mill in orGer to~see the whole process
We find chambero of the shops is hung round with
coils of bright wire of all hcknesses, from the stout
kinds used for Goldfish hooks to that of the finest cam
brio needles In a room below bits of wire the length
of two needles cut by a vast pair of shears fixed
in the wall. bundle has been cut off; the bits
need Strengthening, for they Just off from coils.
The bundle is thrown into red hot furnace; and
then taken out and rolled backward and forward on
a table until the wires are straight. This process
Is called rubbing straight" We a mill for
grinding needles. We 90 down into the basement,
and find needle pointer seated on his bench He
takes up two dozen of the wires and rolls them

the grlndstone, first end and thenth other We
have now the straight and pointed at both ends.
Next is machine which fattens and cutters the
heads of ten thousand needles in hour. Observe
the little cutters at the head of your needle Next
comes the punching of the eyes, and the boy who
does 1t punches egh thousand hour, and he does
1t so fast your eyes hardly keep pace with him.
The splitting follows which is running fine wire

complete needles, but rough and rusty and what is
worse, they easily bend. poor needle, you will
say. But the hardening comes next They are heat
ed in patches in furnace, and when red hot are
thrown in pan of cold water. Next they must be
tempered; and this is done by rolling them backward
and forward on hot metal plate. The polishing
still remains to be done. On very cloth
needles are spread to the snumber of forty fifty
| thousand. Emery dust is stTewed over them, oil il
sprinkled, and the cloth is then rolled up and with
several others of the kind, thrown into a sor
of wash pot to roll to and fro for twelve hours O
more. They come out dirty enough but after rims
