A PROCLAMATION.

By THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA.
WHEREAS. The revolution Of another
year has again brought the time when it is
usual to look back upon the past, and pub
liciy to thank the Almighty for his mercies
and His blessings:
And whereas. If any one people has more
occasion than another for such thankfulness,
it is the citizens Of the United States. whose
government is their creature, subject to
their behests; who have reserved to them
selves ample civil and religious freedom
and equality before the law; vino, during
the last twelvemOnth. have enjoyed exemp-
ton from any yrievOus or general calamity.
and to whom prosperity il agriculture.
manufactures and Commerce has been
vouchsafed.
Now. therefore, Gy these considerations,
recommend tina OF Tuesday, the twenty
eighth DAY OF November next, the people
meet in their respective places of worship,
and there make their Acknowledgements to
God for his kindness and bounty.
IN witness whereof. have hereunto set
Lay hand caused the seal of the United
States to be amxed
Done at the city of Washington this elev-
enth day o. October. in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and
seventy-two, and OF the independence OF
the United States .he ninety seventh.

Women. Work.

Tie result OF I: years work in .'e We
mems art department of the Coopers H.
stitute are gratifying. One hundred and
n!nety-e.ght students have awaited them
selves of The advantages of this school
during the past twelve months. and it is
pleasan. to know that the thirteen ladies
who have advanced to the Academy OF De-
sign have carried away most OF the prizes
gi"en there. The Free School for Instruc-
ton IN Wood Engraving numbers forty
two pupils. and the School OF Pho
cography shows signs of healthy
growth. The problem over which educa-
tors are pulling their brains. concerning
the capacity of women 70 perform the
higher kind of intellectual labor, seems TO
be working itself out. Given fair chance
TO, competition, and right to receive the
rewards due to honest work. the young
women OF this country are proving them
selves competent to enter into rivalry with
the young men; and inasmuch as both
classes have TO earn their own living, there
is no good reason why the success of the
women should not be made as profitable to
them as to the men, who &c: pay without
question from anybody.

THE FLY.
BY POP.

This may be safely pat down as nuisance.
Somebody has said that all things are Gre
ated for useful purpose. but if that some
body will put on his best thinking cap and
tell what that useful purpose for which
flies are created u.s. our hat is at his disposal.
There is the horse fly, the sand fly, the big
.blue.tailed fly, and the common house fly,
ana that the last named is the greatest
nuisance OF them all, il simply because his
is the largest family. At the dinner table,
at the counting house desk. in the kitchen
or in the library the little house fly makes
his appearance and nine times in ten just
when -ou wouid mos: be relieved of
hiS presence. We sit at the table to refresh
the inner man, proceed TO help ourselves
from the butter.dish and the cussed little
fy is sure to 6e there before US, We saunter
into place where things are ''mixed' and
while waiting for the water to cool the
ever present little insect drops into
tie other tumbler Just as we are about to
take in the contents; we walk into the
counting-room, open out the books with
view to making calculations Of debit and
credit. when into the ;nkstald pounces the
little pest. only to. extricate himself in time
to plant himself sQuarely upon the open
ledger, and do more damage in a second
than can be repaired by the expert with
plotting paper, eraser and pomice in half an
hour; the cook complains that she can't
keep the flies out of the dishes; the house.
maid declares that all her efforts to keep
them out of the sitting room have proved
unavailing. and our post prandial siesta is a
thing TO be hoped for. not realized.
The weather is warm today: the sun
shines in through the windows. giving
abundance of light, and heat also; we are
in our shirt-sl eeves, and intently interested
in getting the hero o: an exciting
novel our of an awkward dilemma our
mind is almost as completely alb
sorbed il the events as though we were
the idertical chap upon whose movements
the thread of the narrative depended,

and keep on finding i until we are worn
out with the effort to drive him away, and
throw down the book with "confound
that fly. The more they don't want HIM
the more he comes, and the hotter the
weathe: the closer he sticks.
The only use that We can find that flies
are besides being a nuisancet is to find
spiders. and about the cnl Y use for spiders
is TO catch flies. l AIN out on the fly.
