Little Boy From Manly
The Little Boy from Manly was a national personification of New South Wales and later Australia created by the cartoonist Livingston Hopkins of '' The Bulletin'' in April 1885. In March 1885, as the New South Wales Contingent was about to depart for the Sudan, a letter was addressed to Premier William Bede Dalley containing a cheque for £25 for the Patriotic Fund 'with my best wishes from a little boy at Manly'. It was Australia's first overseas military adventure, and the little boy became a symbol either of Australian patriotism or, among opponents of the adventure, of mindless chauvinism. Hopkins put the boy in a cartoon, dressed in the pantaloons and frilled shirt associated with English storybook schoolboys of the namby-pamby Namby-pamby is a term for affected, weak, and maudlin speech/verse.

SS Manly
''Manly'' (II) was a ferry that served on the Sydney to Manly run from 1896 to 1924. Designed by renowned naval architect Walter Reeks, ''Manly'' was the first double-ended screw ferry on the Manly run. She, along with '' Kuring-gai'' (1901), were the archetypes for the long run of Manly ferries for most of the twentieth century. Background In the 1880s, the Port Jackson Steamship Company Limited had been expanding its paddle steamer fleet and services to Manly from Sydney (Circular Quay). Without competition, fares also rose. In response, local interests set up the Manly Co-operative Steam Ferry Limited in 1893 that ran a service with chartered single-ended screw steamers. While a price-war ensued, the new company's smaller and open vessels (''Cygnet'', ''Admiral'', ''Conqueror'', and ''Marramarra'') could not match Port Jackson's larger vessels, which included '' Brighton'', ''Fairlight'', ''Narrabeen''.
