A CoNTRABAND PRESIDENT.

1t is said that General Benjamin F. Butler,
hero of New Orleans and Fort Fisher, and
now Governor of Massachusetts,, has his peace
much disturbed by the buzz, buzz, buzz OF the
Presidential bee. Let US fling into the pros
pect a sprinkle of retrospect by which the
people may recognize him as he advances to
that respectable station. Louisiana lost in a
dissoving view, and the old State in her
former livery is not the military thing. A
civic and not battle scene, the pen mightier
than the sword, prescribing women by
general ORDERS" and robbing individuals
and institutions-that was it. But one day,
when Butler was running for Congress, Mas
sachusetts caught her old eagle at carrion, and
just then the feathers flew. Incontinentily
certificate of character was issued by
conference" committee in the Butler Con-
gressonal district. We have not space for the
whole document, but what we furnish ought
to fill the rails of the Presidential boom:
mo man feels safe in any relations with
him, political or personal. His course has been
well described in these words 'swagger fraud,
failure That he employs officials and UNI
officials in carrying out his schemes of per-
sonal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, and spends vast sums
of money, and has an incredible number of
agencies, some of the very worst characters, is
well known. Indeed, it is not too much to say
that his reputation is infamous. He is univer-
sally believed to be capable of anything to
achieve his ends. He has done more than any
man in Massachusetts, of this generation, to
lower the tone of its politics, create a servitude
out of the public offices, mislead and debauch
men by examples of bad principles and bad
practices, carrying in all he does glitter and
hollowness and vanity"
With these shining credentials we take
leave to commend to the Democratic party,
now slouching round for a candidate for the
Presidency, the hero of New Orleans and
Fort Fisher, now Governor of Massachusetts,;
and not the Governor of New York, who
is said to have no heroic blood in his veins. |

NUDE ART.

1t is not commonly known that at the New
York Academy of Design is a Ladies' Life
school. This is an institution in which young
ladies are instructed in nude art. The age is
passing into the primitive glories Of Paradise,
prudery is going to sleep in the lap of limo
cence; the First Mother, who was naked and
not ashamed, is the prevalent woman in the
metropolitan school of art.
There are male and female students and
models to correspondence is to say, the
sexes antagonizing. The ladies' class num-
bers IS and is increasing. 1t has been half a
dozen years in the difficult pursuit of nude
art. The male class is 50. There is a man
professor at the head and subordinate men
professors besides. There are professors to
engage models and professor to instruct them
in the pose. There are three sessions of
each class per week, and each session is of
two hours.
1t is difficult for some of US to realize how
thoroughly the rude shell of conventionality is
dropped from the art-mnd when entering the
circle of charmed interest which pervades this
student life. For two hours the posed model
maintains perfect immobility, in which con-
sists the great difficulty of model art. AT the
end of this time the school is dismissed. The
art galleries are adorned with the drawings of
the schools, many of which are said to be of
much promise.
We are serious in the conviction that the
world would be as we'll without great deal of
its sqeamishness; while our reliance upon the
perfect release of society from the. conven-
tional preiudices that have always prevented,
will interpose serious obstacles to the respect
ability of posing as vocation in metropolitan
academies of design.

THE Fort Clark News is evidently cogni-
zant of some of the principal requirements of
San Antonio. 1t says: 'There is but little
doubt that great many persons are deferred
from visiting San Antonio on account of the
lack of hotel accommodations, and money
which would be brought there and placed in
circulation is turned away. An opera house
is also urged as one of the desirable and nee
essary things. San Antonio is the largest
city in the State and its population is increas-
ing the most rapidly, but in the above things
she falls behind her sister cities in the State -

morrow. As no issues are at stake, the inter-

other good qualities. If elected he will I'M

THE question what is at this time a Demo-
crat is creating some interest in the wake of
the adjournment of Congress. The colloquy
by the contemporary of Dryden, explaining
the color of the chameleon, is lucid and in ex-

description which the political doctors of our
time will give to fame and history of that most
anomalous gorgon OF politics, the live Demo-
crat. Heretofore anything denoting the local

Mr.. Aleck, of Russia, is again fearful that his
life will be destroyed by the Nihilists, many
of whom have been arrested at Moscow. The
police declare ''there is no reason to believe
there is any special plotting" but there is
more than ordinary vigilance, and ip this
part of the world we find reason to believe
that the Cars assertion that Nihilism had re-

boy who whistles loudest when he is most
frightened while walking alone in a dismal

Prof. A. r.. Horne, the eminent
educator who held the Teachers In
stitutss at this place a short time ago,
in writing to his paper, the National
Educator, pays the following high
compliment to our country and pee
pie:
We had scarcely alighted from the
train here, when we were warmly
greeted by Mr.. Swayze, the. active,
wide-aWake superintendent of the
schools of st. Landry parish, g gentle
man in every sense of the word, and q
live educator. He left no labor I'M
spared to make the institute at this
place success. "A most sumptaous
breakfast was prepared for us at the
hotel, which, by the way, is the best
kept house that We found IN louisiana,
not excepting even the st. Charles, in
New Orleans. After deing Justice to
the meal, WHICH We did very fully, for
we had travelled from five to eight this
morning, we held an institute in the
new and comm0dious hall placed at
eur disposal fer this purpose. The
afternoon session was held la the same
| hall, while the night meeting was held
lin the Courthouse. Court being in SEA-
sion here, the institute at night was
/ favored BY tile presence of the judge,
and many OF the distinguished mem
bers of the bar. Here We met . large
number of very enthusiastic educa-
tors OF both the parish and town.
We were even warmly pressed to re-
! main, and take a scheel property; Of
fere,l gratuitously, one hundred and
/ fifty students guaranteed, and several
prominent citizens promised to supple
nent the liberal offer by private con
tributions of 800 year each. We
never met more generous people any
where. Among those whose klnd
Offices we desire to acknowledge par
ticurlarly, were, Mrs. Mayer, one q
the teachers Of Opelousas, and bel
children, the Misses Davis, Miss Nc
Kinney and especially Mr. Ealer, Wht
