WEEKLY, sEM1-wEEk1Y, AND DAILY.

The Weekly Sun is too widely known to
require an extended recommendation but
the reasons which have already given it fifty
thousand subscribers, and which will, we
hope, give it many thousands more, are a.
follows:
It is a frst-rate newspaper. All the news
Of the day viii be found in il, condensed when
u%nimportant, at full length when Of moment,
and always presented in clear, ineligible,
and interesting ann
1t is a frst-rate family paper, full Of enter
tanning and instructive reading Of every kind,
but containing nothing that can offend the
most delicate and scrupulous taste.
It is q frst-rate story paper. The best
tales and romances Of current literature are
carefully selected and legibly printed in it's
pages.
It is a frst-1:te agricultural paper. The
most fresh and instructive articles On agri-
cultural topics regularly appear in this de-
partment.
It is an independent political paper, be-
longing to no party and wearing no collar.
It fights for principle, and for the election Of
tho best men to Office. 1t especially devotes
it's energies to the exposure Of the great cor
ruptions that now weaken and disgrace our
country, and threaten to undermine Repub-
lcan institutions altogether. It has no fear
of knaves, and asks no favors from their sup
porters. =
It reports the fashions for the ladies' and
the markets for the men, especially the cat
tie markets, to which it pays particular at
tentien.
Finally, it is the cheapest paper published.

scriber. It is not necessary to get up q club
in order to have The Weekly Sun at this rate.

PROSPECTUS or The LouIslANIAN.
THE, LOUISIANIAN

was established to meet q necessity
that has long, and sometimes, pain
fully been felt to exist.
Il was proposed through this
Journal to furnish to OUR PEOPLE
the information - guidance en-
enlargement and counsel which
they SO much needed in the transit
ton from their former unfortunate
condition into the new and better
estate of American citizenship.
In resuming its publication, we
re-assure our readers and friends,
that, holding this journal true to its
original aims, we shall honestly
labor to make it an efficient agent
in furthering the interests of the
oolored people Of the Nation, and
elevating the race that it especially
represents.
POLICY.
Az our motto indicates, the
Lou1s1AN1AN shall be "Repubtscan at
all times and under all circum-
stances" We shall advocate the
security and enjoyment of broad
civil liberty, the absolute equality
of all men before the law, and an
impartial distribution of honor and
patronage to all who merit them.
DESTROYS of allaying animosities,
of celebrating the memory of the
bitter past, Of promoting harmony
and union among all classes and
between all interests, We shall
advocate the removal of all disabili-
ties, foster kindness AMI forbear-
ance, where malignity and resent
ment reigned, and seek for fairness
and Justice where wrong and op-
preston prevailed. Thus united in
our aims and objects, we shall con-
serve our best interests, and elevate
our noble State, to an enviable posi-
ton among her sister States, by the
development of her illimitable re-
sources, and secure the full benefits
of the mighty changes in the history
and condition of the people and the
country.
Believing that there can be nc
true liberty without the supremacy
of law, we shall urge a strict and
undiscriminating administration Of
TAXATION
We shall support the doctrine Of
an equitable division Of taxation
among all classes, a faithful collec'
ton Of the revenues, economy in
the expenditures, conformably with
the exigencies of the State OF
country and the discharge of every
legitimate obligation.
EDUCATION
We shall sustain the carrying out
of the provisionsof the act establish:
ing our common school system, AND
urge as q paramount duty the edu'
cation of our youth, as vitality con
nected with their own enlighten'
ment. and the security and stability
Of q Republican Government.
FINAL.
BY a generous, manly, indepen'
dent, and judicious course, w
shall strive to rescue our paper
from an ephemoral, and temporary
existence, and establish it upon {
basis, that if we cannot command,
re shall at all events deserve
success.
