GsoRsIA has ratified the Fifteenth
Amendment. This, virtually makes that
instrument q part of the organic law Of
the Nation The action of the New
York Legislature in resembling reso
luton which was passed by a previous
Legislature ra'ifying the same casts a
cloud Of doubt upon the question AS TO
whether the requisite number of STATES
appear upon the record as giving their
free assent TO its Adoption Nebraska
will render the action of New York a
matter of no vital consequence and
Texas will supplement- the action Of
Nebraska. The indubitable RATIFICATION
of this Amendment is at hand. That It
will b, djsregsried and resisted for
time in certain localities there is Ii tie
doubt. But there are various ways by
which such nuIiifyiug action can be Beu
tralized and overcome. Congress has
undoubted powers to legislst- IN b. half

of the States persisten'ly ignore the
binding force of toe articles of the Con

which it is prepared, in highly con-

universal satisfaetion to all Physicians
and patients who have tested it in dis
eases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys or

OUR "SuANKs." PIN the concluding
line of our notice Of the lecture deliv-

"Anna and the Library Association have
our sbanks for an enjoyable lecture"
If the rampant, roaring, ripping COM
positor who wrestled with the types
forming that sentence will take his eye
and cast it again on our manuscript, he
will find that we wrote thanks" We
never gave either Anna nor the Library
committee our "shanks." How would
Anna or Archie Campbell look going
about on our "shanksi" How would
we look without themi Imagine us cut
of at the knees presenting our "shanks"
to the gentle Anna when the spring

funny sight. Well, one can't always
avoid these typographical errors, but
they do play the deuce with ones mean

The SCIENCE will depart at 10 o'clock

Captain Williamson, of the Mata-
moras packet Hope, furnishes us with
the following account of his late COLI
sion with the tow.boat Boaz:
As the Hope rounded ont from the
wharf and had Strengthened down the
river, about opposite the mouth OF the
creek, the Boaz gave one whistle, to
pass the Hope on her larbeard side,
then the pilot of the Hope promptly
gave the proper signal by blowing one
whistle, and steered over towards the
Island; when it was discovered that
the Boaz, with fleet of empty barges
was steering directly towards the Hope.
She was at this time within one hum
bred yards of us. The pilot of the Hope
stopped his vessel and began to back,
but the Boaz kept on and did not stop
until the boats struck. The collision
was with one of the Boaz's barges, the
Hope striking it in the bow, tearing the
whole front out of it, and doing herself
but little damage, striking her about
her forward check. Had the Hope not
backed as soon as she did, the damage
would have been more serious. The
smoke and fog were heavy, but not so
dense as to prevent the pilot from see-
ing smoke arise from the Boaz and hear
her escaping.
