The Manly Boy.

What is it makes manly boy? 1t is
not size or weight. for there are some
large. heavy boys that are anything but
manly. We saw once, a big, burly TEL
low about thirteen years old, with fist
like small sledge hammer. and a voice
as loud, almost rs that of a mule; but we
did not think he was very manly. when
we saw him pick up a small boy, who WAS
quietly PLAYING with Il little wooden wag-
on. and lifted him above his head while
he screamed in his ear us loud us he could,
and then sat him down. The littld fellow
was pale with fright, and cried; the big
| fellow laughed aloud, and went his way,
ha- hating Is he went, and no doubt think
inc he had done 4 very fine thing. But he
was not manly.
Nor does the power to smoke cigars
without getting sick, make manly boy
Some boys think SO. we know. We have
even seen small boys, nine or ten years
old, pick up stump' of cigars which men
have thrown into the gutter, and puff away
at them, holding up their heads and stalk
inc along, rs if to say, Ladies and gen
tlemen, look at Us We are men, we are
We smoke, and we don't Get sick" But
they are not men.
4 manly boy is one who shows good
manly abilities. We do not expect him tc
be rs big as Il man, us strong as Il man. OF
as wise Us II man. But he will be truth
full. honest and well behaved. He will
never speak of his father rs the "gover-
no1," or the "old man; nor will he speak
of his mother as the old woman.H He
will ! OF be ashamed to have it known that
he loves both his father and his mother;
nor will he be afraid of all the ridiculc
which silly boys may heap upon him be
cause of this love. They may call him Il
baby" and say what thu please about
being g" led by his mothers apron strings;
he does not mind that, for he knows he is
right
He will never engage in low mean
sports; he loves real sport. but will do
nothing for fan thu, he would be afraid to
talk about ut the dinner table He does
not torment small bows, but is ready to
help them when he can His sisters are
not careful to hide their work. their books
or their toys from him, lest he should dis
turb or destroy them; he would not think
of tlat. He is careful not to be greedy at
the table. or rude in company, but rcmrm-
beers that others have RIGHTS as well ;t>

Gold In Alaska.

Alaska is, not,a territory to which the immigrant has been powerfully attracted hitherto. Its settlement has seemed likely to be postponed until that remote time when the inhabitants of all the rest of the country should begin to feel uu- comfortably crowded. If, however, any thing can turn steady current of travel toward new laad it is the discovery, of gold therein. Report of such discov- cry in Alaska has recently been male. It needs confirmation, it is true, but that is all that is necessary to attract a,i- venturers in greater numbers than coul.l the most salubrious climate or tropical ly rich. soil. Gold. digging is the least profitable of all digging T-to, the diggers; but that lesson is never learned by these spersons whoo suffer most from ignorance of 1t.

Artists Models.

A Philadelphia paper says: It seems strange, but nevertheless it is a fact, that there are many young ladies in this city who earn their livelihood by acting or poising as live lay figures for the art academies. At first glance it seems dreadfully shocking and vulgar that ladies should appear before party of young men perfectly nude. Itis queer mode of making money, but were it not for these ladies there would not be any of the fine figures which are christened Dlanas and Venuses, but are only such so far as the shape and comeliness of form of the subject goes.
 In conversation with a prominent member of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, reporter,of the Sunday Press learned most strange things con cerning the world of art. He said it was extremely difficult to obtain young ladies who would adopt this business, and only upon the most sacred promises that their individuality would not be revealed do they consent to take the position. 1" Indeed" said the gentle man, "this rule is so we'll enforced that there was one lady who appeared before our class at the old academy for four years before knew who she was." .i.
 These nude. live figures only appear before the life class of the academy for sketching. Formerly they came before. the gentlemen alone, but in the new building, both ladies and gentleman will study together. No one except the member of the class are ever admitted to the room where they are studying from figure, and only the best artists are taken into membership in this mysteri, ous body. The method of studying pur- sued is something like the following: The lady proceeds to a room adjoining the classroom, especially adapted for her, At Q given signal she appears be- for the assembled guests, upon 8 plat form, masked and shrouded in drapery. She is then placed in the proper position required II for the study, and soon the delft handlers of the brush proceed to depict her form. She is never allowed to- be spoken to by any of the members of the class, and should any of the bold ones break this rule they are immediate ly and forever expelled.
 Indeed, the whole proceeding so soon assumes an ar of business that the art ists, according to their own statements, forget that the lady who Is exposing her charms to their gaze is alive. Of course, there is a shock experienced by the new conner in the class the first time he is present at the meeting, but it soon wears off. #e tis
 The ladies who follow this strange mode of procuring living are in every instance respectable. They are gener- ally led to it by the tempting offers of the large pay which is given for their work. Oltentimes ladies of wealth, who are proud of their charms, and whose vanity exceeds their prudence, act in this capacity for some skiilful artist. In the celebrated picture of the "'Nine Muses," which created such furore a few years since, the figures there repre- sented were of living subjects from diff ferent parts of the globe, ono being re- ported to be the wife of wealthy resi- dent of New York, and another of large merchant of Chicago.

.THANKsGryING.
A TFSeA@mata0n by the President of tn, -.---x United @fnkaa of Amarian, M

A FfSe1a0ataon by the President of the - United States of America, g.
 In accordance with practice, at once wise and beautiful, we have been accus- toned, as the year is drawing to a close. to devote an occasion to the humble ex- pression of our thanks to Almighty God for the ceaseless and distinguished bene- lit bestowed upon us as nation, and for His mercies and protection during the closing year. Amid the rich and free enjoyment of all our advantages we should not forget the source from whence they are derived, and the extent of our obligations to the Father of all Mercies.
 We have full reason to renew our thanks to Almighty God for favors be- slowed upon us during the past year. By His continuing mercy, civil and re- hglous liberty have been maintained, peace has reigned within our borders, labor and enterprise have produced their mer1ted rewards, and to His watchful providence we are indebted to security from pestllence and other national calamity. Apart from national bles- sings, each individual among us has oc- casion to thoughtfully recall and devout- ly recognize the favors and protection. which he has enjoyed. -.
 Now, therefore, I, Ulysses s. Grant, President of the United States, do re- commend that on Thursday, the 25th day of November, the people of the United States, abstaining from all secu- liar pursuits and from their accustomed avocations, do assemble in their respec- tive places of worship and, in such form as may seem most appropriate in their own hearts, offer to Almighty God their acknowledgements and. thanks for all His mercies, and their humble prayers for continuance of His divine favor.
 In witness whereof, I have hereunto set. my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the city of Washington this 27th day of October, in the year of our Lord 1875, and of the independence of the United State the Tooth. U. s. GRANT.
