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
briefly as follows:
1t is a tirst-rate 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 first-rate family paper, full of en-
tertaininS and instructive reading of every
kind, but containing nothing that can Of
fend the most delicate and scrupulOus taste.
1t is a first-rate story paper The best
tales and romances of current literature are
carefully selected and legibly printed in its
pages.
1t lisa frst-rate agricultural paper. The
most fresh and instructive articles on agri-
cultural topics Regularly appear In this de-
partment.
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 de-
votes its energies to the exposure of the
great cOrruptions that now weaken and
disgrace our country, and threaten to un-
dermine republican institutions altogether.
1t has no fear of knaves, and asks no favors
from their supporters.
1t reports tine fashions for the ladies and
the markets for the men, especially the cat
tie markets, to which 1t pays particular at
tention.
Finally, it isthe cheapest paper published.
One dollar year will secure it for any sub
| scriber. 1t is not necessary to get up a club
in order to have THE WEEKLY sun at
this rate. Any one who sends a single dol
| lar will get the paper for year.
