WANTED-zAN HONEST, INDUS
TRTOUs, STEADY BOY.

We lately saw an advertisement
headed as above. 1t conveys to every
boy an impressive moral lesson. An
honest, industrious boy" is always
oDanted. He will be sought for; his
services will be in demand; he will be
respected and loved; he will be spoken
Of In terms of high commentator he
will always have a home; will grow up
to be man Of known worth and estab-
lished character. He will be wanted.
The merchant will want him for a
salesman or clerk; the master mechan-
ic will want him for an apprentice or
foreman; those with a job to let will
want him for a contractor; clients will
want him for lawyer; patients for q
physician; religious congregations for
a pastor; parents for a teacher Of their
children; and the people for an officer.
He will be wanted toWnsmen will
want him for citizen; acquaintance
as a neighbor; neighbors as a friend
families as visitor; the world as an
acquaintance: nay, girls will want him
as beau, and finally, for a husband
An honest, industrious boyi just

description? Can you apply for this

A plaster cast Of Guiteau's head and
face has been taken by Theodore Mills.
1t required some persuasion to induce
him to submit to the ordeal, but & few
well-directed compliments on the part
Of the distinguished artist, relative to
the regret that would be felt by the
people at having no better likeness Of
20 eminent a man than an ordinary
photograph, induced him to accept.
His face was clean shayen for the
operation, and a few minutes sufilced
for obtaining cast that will yield an
exact model Of the head and face of
the greatest villain on earth. Guiteau
did not like to have his beard removed
at first. 1t reveals his lower face,
which is said to be much stronger in
outline than the upper. The artist re-
marked when the beard was removed,
what chin" Guiteau was greatly
pleased, and said that Judge Cox and
the jury had discovered that he had
considerable chin some time ago I'M

Secretary Blaine has contributed
another valuable paper to the question
of the position this country will take
on the isthmus canal project. The pa
per, in the form of letter of instruc-
ton to Minister Lowell, has been sent
to the Senate for confirmation. The
position there taken by our govern
ment. in case the treaty it embodies is
confirmed, will set aside q large part
of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty of 1850.
Mr.. Blaine has carefully shown the
new light in which this country must
hencefOrth regard the canal question
and the changes that have made new
understanding, differing essentially
from that embodied in the treaty OF
1850, necessary. In that treaty Great
Britain and the United States agreed
to be entirely neutral on the question,
neither maintaining military force
erecting Notifications. Since that
time the development OF California
and Oregon and of the territories Of
the Pacific Slope has established for
this country new empire in the west,
and made the question Of the control
of the canal vital one. AS Great
Britain maintains a line of fortiica-
tions to India through the Mediterra-
mean, SueZ Canal, and Red Sea, making
it an easy matter to put her armed
fleets where they may be required in
the shortest possible time, so, our
government claims, are we bound to
give protection to the Pacific States by
armed possession of the shortest water
route leading to them. This govern
ment, with an agreement of neutrality
with Great Britain, really surrenders
the control of the canal to England,
for the British navy makes it possible,
in time of war, for Great Britain to Sc
cure entire possession before this
country could take the initiatory steps
toward securing its rights, to say moth
ing of the imperfect security guaran-
teed to us by the fact that other Europe
an powers are not party to the agree
ment.
According to the position now as
sumed by this government, the only
concession that this country will re-
Quire will be armed possession Of the
canal. This country will establish
military posts at the extremlties of the
canal and maintain sufficient military
force to guarantee them an undisput-
able passage to the states Of the Pacific
coast. What other governments may
think of this position we have yet to
learn, but that it is vital to this govern
ment can be plainly seen. Much as
war might be dreaded, this country
can never retire from this position with
honor.

The public schools close to-day for a
two weeks vacation. Exercises will
be held in the various departments in
the afternoon, consisting of Rotations,
essays, etc. The schools are unusually
busy in the term examinations, so busy
that it has been impossible to make
any effort toward display OH the last

The campaign of 1884 is already a
year or more old. These are days in
which carefully conducted enterprise,
having great ends in view, does not de-
lay taking initiatory steps, but begins
as soon as the energies exerted in a
previous effort are decided upon. The
day that closes the old campaign COM
mences the new, almost. There is only
the little breathing spell between the
voting and determining the results. A
great deal Of the political matter APP
pearing in the great dailies, apparently
the nominations ofthe editor in an idle
moment for mere diversion, are care
fully constructed items emanating from
strong political centers and intended
to have their due effect in shaping the
campaign. Such are the articles in
which Blaine's movements are criti-
cised. No man occupies so prominent
a position in the Republican ranks.
and it behooyes his opponents to labor
with unceasing zeal or lose in the con
test. There are, however, issues fore
Swallowed, that may, before the re-
naming part Of the term is closed, as
sumo form that will annihilate per-
sonal aspirations and preferences, even
re0rganize the whole Of party lines,
and do away with the Republican and
Democratic parties. The compiled
tions Of the Panama Canal question
will be the question that will produce
a party revolution, if anything does.
The position taken by this government
on that question is leading to great I'm
easiness in England, and John Bull

What will tariff or free trade questions
amount to under the cloud Of impend-

certainties; and it may not be unreas-
enable to expect that the close Of the
present term will find this country
with entirely new issues to confront,
to see old party lines disappear, to see
the country undergo a political revo-
luton and complete party reorganiza'
ton effected. Such a crisis might not
be bad for the country. There are no
real issues. Party organization is the

they ever can be. long ago.

President Arthur is credited with
the determination Of disseminating the
practice of appointing lady postmast-
srs. The results are claimed not to
have been good; that such officers are
as a rule, careless, and less to be de-
pended upon for prompt and accurate
discharge of their duties. If this re-
port is true, there will 10 deep-seated
animosity stirred up in the breasts Of
many fair postmistress throughout
the country. The change will be con
sidered a defeat to woman's rights

for positions under the government are
unusually numerous this year, and such
q determination on the part Of the
President will somewhat lessen theil
chances in the department offices.

The most remarkable news of the
week is, perhaps, the discovery of the
missing Arctic exploring vessel jean
astte, with all on board well, and ship
md cargo in excellent condition. The
solieItude felt by all civilized nations
FOR the expedition had about settled in
eoa firm conviction that the vessel and
ell on board were lost, another of the
Rany singular enterprises that have
met an unknown fate in the icc-locked
regions that surround the pole. The
discovery was made under the direc-
tiOn OF the Governor of Siberia, who,
Dartaking fully of the interest felt by
all nations in the fate of the missing
expedition, organized a relief crew,
which has been searching for traces
of the lost ship for q year past. Their
mission was finally successful, as they
not only found the object Of their
search, but the cheering intelligence
that all is we'll with ship and crew is a
part ofthe message which conveys the
news Of their discovery. The COM
mander and crew of the Jeanette are
very much astonished to learn that
they have for the past year been regard
ed as lost and of the relief being organ
zed by the leading civilized govern
Rents to ascertain as far as possible
the nature of their fate. The friends
and relatives of the crew in this coun.
Try will read the news with great re-
lief, and Arctic voyaging will receive
a new stimulus from the renown that
will fill to this expedition.
The first report Of the discovery of
the Jeannette has proved inaccurate
in some leading particulars. The YES
sci is lost, abandoned when she became
hopelessly locked in the ice of the Arc
tic regions. Her officers and crew en-
trusted their fate to three boats. Two
OF these have reached the mouth Of the
Lena River, in Siberia, and it is from
these that the reports have come. One
boats crew, containing Lieut.. De Long,
is in very bad condition. Their limbs
sre frost-bitten, and one report says
they are starving, without being able
to make the land. The most prompt
and enthusiastic effort is being made
to extend to them the deserved relief.
The other boats crew is not heard from
