A NullitY.


Speaking of the compulsion ex-
|ercised over Georgia the Cincin-
natti Enquirer says: i
A ratification obtained in such
a manner is a mere nullity, and
at proper time will be SO held.
Georgia is not alone. The same
compulsion has been applied to
Virginia and will doubtless be
used in reference to Texas, on
this Amendment. The Four
teenth Amendment was carried
through nearly all the Southern
States in the same manner. OF
course. legally, neither of the
Amendments are worth the pa
per on which they are written.
Congress has no right whatever
TO dictate to State its action on a
Constitutional, or, indeed, any
other question. There will be no
difficulty in setting both Amend
ments aside.

Two Curious Needles.

The King of Prussia recently
visited a needle mandatory in
his kingdom, in order to see what
machinery, combined with the hu-
man hand, could produce. IIe
was shown a number of superfne
needles, thousands of which togeth-
er did not weigh half an ounce,
and marveled how such minute
objects could be pierced with an
eye. But. he was glad to see that
In this respect even something
still finer and more perfect could
be created. The borer-that is,
the workman whose business it is
to bore the eyes OF these needles,
asked ior hair from the monarch s
head. 1t was readily given, and
with a smile. He placed it at
once under the boring machine,
made hole in it with the great
est care, furnished with a thread,
and then handed the singular nee
die to the astonished King.
The second needle is in posses
sion Of Queen Victoria. 1t was
made at the celebrated needle fac
tory at Reddish, and represents
the columnof Trajan in miniature.
This we'll known Roman column
is adorned with numerous scenes in
sculpture, which immortalize Ira
JAMS heroic actions in war. On
this diminutive needle scenes in
the life of Queen Victoria are rep
resented in relief, but SO finely cut
and SO small that itrequires a mag
nifying glass to see them. The
Queen Victoria needle can, more
over, be opened; it contains num-
ber of needles of smaller size, which
are equally adorned with scenes
in relief.
