THE RECONSTRUCTION COMMITTEE.
The Reconstruction Committee, all re-
Drts to the contrary notwithstanding,
have as yet done nothing but organize and
discuss the various methods of doing the
work intrusted to them. They want leave
to send for persons and papers, and reso-
luton granting it has passed the Senate,
and will probably be taken up in the
House tomorrow. They will then ask an
appropriation to meet the current expenses.
Whether they will ask leave to send sub
committee through the South is not settled.
They hope to begin taking evidence at the
session next Friday.

Fool IN OFFICE.-The NEST powerful object
glasses for microscopes which have vet been
made in this country have focal length of l .l6
of an inch In England, Messrs Powell Il Lea
land have recently succeeded after years of great
labor in constructing detectives of fftieth Of an
inch, a miracle of minutenesss The first of these
was made for DR.. Beale, the noted microsconist
and the second for Dr. Rufus King Brown, the cor.
responding secretary OF the Microscopic Society
Of this city. A few days ago DR.. Brown had the
pleasure of paying the duty on a little box from
Messrs Powell & Zealand. He and Others had
been accommodating work for this new eve of
science-questons yet unsettled by microsconic
research; but which would probably Weld to a,
magnifying power of9000 dameters. On opening
the box he found that the custom house officials
had been before him. Although marked gIass
instruments with care,'' the box had been not nm
screwed, but roughly broken open, and the lin
lining mashed in with marks of violence. Within.
packed in cotton, was the brass case of the obiec
tive. Opening this, he found that the front lens
was gone. This was the difficulty of the work.
1t was composed of three lenses eemented into one
acromatic combination, and that not the fftieth of
an inch in diameter. The shock of the battering
which the box had receved had Jared it out of its
setting, and the stupid official who opened the
brass case threw out the little lens worth dia.
mond of a hundred times its weight 1t will be at
least year before another such objective can be
procured. DR.. Brown could not, therefore, be
made whole by the payment of its cost. For re-
dress he applied directly to Collector Clnch, two
or three days ago, and lit is hard to believe it)
was refused hearing.-[N. Y. Tribune, Feb. "a.

The Perpetual Congress.

Whenever u legislative body. says the
Enquirer, aims at supreme power, and tie
establishment Of tyranny over the Stat,
it always commences By making its session
pcrmancnt. 1t was done by the hatcl Long
Parliament Of England and by the French
Convention Of 1898. The Ramp 1T Nasll-
ington, which expires on the 4tli Of March,
andwhich, according TO all the precedents
that have governed since the Constitution
was adopted, would not meet again Inlti
December following, Is to be made to eotl-
vene at noon of the same 7day onwhich il
dissolved. The meaning Of this is a usur-
patton OF the powers OF the. President.
They mean TO sit in Washington, and strip
him Of all his Constitutional powers. eyeil
If they do not depose ldm. The Rllnlp,
through a jlmta Of its members, is TO e,y-
.ercise legislative, eXeentiYc and Judicial
powers. This, we repe9t, is what is intended
by perpetual session OF Congress.
