The following is iron tho preceed-

On motion of Mr. Wilkes, OF Illinois
the following resolution was adopted
without discussion:
Resolved, That We, Che democratic
mombers OF the.houso Of representa-
.iiyos Of tho Fifty-frst congress, at the
.bcginning OF its first session hereby
send greetipg,to tho people OF the
country, with the assuancecf their
continued confidence in and devotion
TO tho principles OF tariff reform, as
embraced in Cleveland's message to
tho last congress IN That subject and
"a the platform OF principles adopted
by the last democratic national CON
yontion at ST. LRRis; and that we hail
with delight tho emphatic approval OF
those principles by tho people as e1-
pressed at the pol4sin tho rceCat cleo
ton; and we pledge them to renew
and continue in congress Che contest
gor roduction,cf tie war taxes, so
ably begun and prosecuted in former
congresses by urrcprcsentativcs and

Will il ever dawn upon tho benight-
cd understanding Of thcse great
statesmen that there are any other
wrongs to which tho people are subject
except the tariffs And win they be
ublo to make the people believe that

The Smallest Screws.

The smallest screws in the world are
made in a watch factory. There can
be no doubling that assertion on any
score. They are cut from steel wire by
machinery. but rs the chips fall down
from the knife it looks us if the opera
tor was simply cutting up the wire for
fun. One thing is certain, 40 screws
can be seen, and yet Il screw is made
every third operation. The fourth
being invisible. and to the naked eye
it looks like dust. With IL glass. how
with two hundred threads to the inch,
and with IA very fine glass the threads
may be seen very clearly. These lit
tie screws are $1,000 of an inch in di-
ameter, and the threads are double
the size. it is estimated that an on,!-
nary lady's thimble would hold 100,-
900 of these tiny little screws. About
100000 o. them are made Il month,
but no attempt is ever made to count
them. In determining the number 100
of them are placed in very delicate
balance and the number is determined
by the weight of these. All the small
parts of Il watch are counted in this
way, probably fifty put Of the 12O.
After being cut the screws are har-
dened and put in Il frame, heads up.
This is done very rapidly, but entirely
by sense OF touch instead OF sight. SO
that Il blind man could do Just as well
as the owner of the sharpest eyes.
The heads arc then polished in an au-
~telnatic machine, 10000 aC a time.
The plate on which they are polished
are covered with oil and Il grinding
compound. and on this the machine
moves them rapidly by Il reversing
motion. uatil thcyarc fully polished

How sleep the brave who sink to resi-
BY al their country's wishes biest?
They Sleep not iii their regimcntalS,

He stood six feet two
Without his shoe,
Aud he was slew
At Waterloo.
