We notice that the New York Sun, which
shines for all" is advertising itself by
posters ON olr streets + We cannot advise any
one to invest their merey in this sheet Some
months ago we received circular FROM
the Sun office offering as the daily fer a year
upon condition of Publishing an advertise
ment for two or three weeks. The advertise
ment was published, and marked copies sent
and afterwaid the attention Of the publishers
was called by letter to their failure to send their
paper as per agreement, but notwithstanding
this, we have thus far failed to receive this
shining sheet. Perhaps, our loss has been our
gain; for it is well-known fact that the Sun
is utterly unreliable as a leader Of public o
pfnion, its course being dictated by the anmosi-
ties of its editor-in-chief, rather than by any
settled principles of truth and justice.
