THE SUN.
WEEKLY, sEMI-WEEKLY, & DAILY.

THE WEEKLY sun is too widely known
to require any extended recommendation ; but
the reasons which have already given it fifty
thousand subscribers, and which will, we
hope, give it many thousands more, are brief
ly as follows -
1t is a frst-ratc newspaper. All the news
of the day will be found in it, condensed
when unimportant, at full length when of
moment and always presented in q CLEAR,
Ineligible. and interesting manner.
1t is a trstrate family family paper, full of
entertaining and instructive reading of every
kind, but containing nothing that can offend
the most delicate and scrupulous taste.
1t is tirst-rate story paper. The best tales
and Iomances of current literature are care
fully selected aad legibly printed in its pages
1t is Il tirst-rate agricultural paper. The
most fresh and instructive articles on agricul-
tural topics regularly appear in this depart
ment.
1t is an Independent political paper, be-
longing to no party and wearing no COLLAR
1t fights for principle, and for the election Of
the best men to office. 1t especially devotes
its energies to the exposure of the great cor
ruptions that nov weaken and disgrace our
country, and threaten to undermine republic
can institutions altogether. 1t has no fear of
knaves and asks no tavors from their sup
porters.
1t reports the fashions for the ladies and
the markets tol the men, especially the cattle
markets, to whichit pays particular attention.
Finally, it is the cheapest paper published.
One dollar year will secure it for any sab
scriber. 1t is not necessary to get up 4 club
in order to have THE WEEKLY SUN at this
rate. Any one who sends single dollar will
get the paper for year.
We have no travelling agents.

How TO BREAK A BALKy HoRsE.-
A balky horse succeeded in block
ading Samson street, Wednesday week,
and had to be taken out of the shafts
of the wagon to which he was har-
messed before the blockade could be
raised. Few persons engaged in
handling horses know how to success
fully treat a balky animal. When
he evinces his obstinacy, loss of tenn
per, imprecaticns and liberal beatings
and kickings are tile customary ap-
plications, all Of which tends to in
crease rather than diminish his OBJ
stinacy. The following simple and
humane treatment is pretty generally
employed BY native CaliforniaDs, and
Is always accompanied with success
Take an ordinary packing rope, pass
the same under the horses belly y; let
q man take hold Of each end Of the
same and draw 1t saw fashion against
the inside of the fore-legs. No soon
er will the horse feel the saving of
the rope, than he will commence step
pingforward. Follow him up a few
steps, continue saving his forelegs
with the rope, and he will go ahead
without further trouble. Philadelphia

We call attention to the card of the

Capt. Sinnot is determined to remain
with us, and to that end advertises
the fact that, when occasion, requires
he will place a small boat in the trade.
It's useless to say to the numerous

Saturday Evening Post has been the
GREAT LITERARY WEEKLY
of tle Country, and has ever borne a
widespread and hnblemished reputation
for the unsurpassed purity, refinement
and excellence of the. Serials, Sketches
and miscellaneous reading matter.
1t is pre-eminently
Tho Best Family Paper
that is published in this country. from its
never containing anything that w"uld
offend the feelings Of any one, either in
q religious or political sense, or that
could not be read at any hreside without
objection from the most fastidious.
The circulation Of the Saturday Even
ing Post, through not quite so large
perhaps as its younger contemporaries.
is not, like that Of some of them, tiuctu-
ating, and too often short lived, but
SURE, SOLID AND SUBSTANTIAL,
based upon the intrinsic merit of the pa
per itself and not dependent on any px-
traneons influences, such as the popnlari-
ty of individual writer's, &c.
Good, however, as the Saturday Even.
ing Post has been in the past, it is our
intention to make it still better in the
future, and with this object in view VIC
will effect g marked improvement in eve
ry department of the paper, and will
call to our assistance writers of admitted
ability and known reputation.
By increasing its former attractions,
and adding many judicious and pleas.
ing novelties, by studying how to please
and cultivate tho popular taste, by in.
creasing industry and enterprise, and by
enlarged facilities, we hope to make new
friends with each and every issue, and
continue to maintain the claim of the
Saturday Evening Post to its title of THE
OLDEST AND THE BEST Of Family Story
Papers.
