81 There are few papers in this
state that advertise themselvs as "liye"
and aggressive" Words are worry chesp
and, in fact, cost newspaper publisher
nothing at all, especially if he applies
them TO himself. But there are ono or
two of these aggressive" papers,at least,
that are low, dirty little sheets, "aggres.
siveness" meaning to them, throwing mud
at anybody and everybody without re-
gard to reason or deccncy. There is q
praiseworthy sggressivcness which every
newspaper should exhibit, 10 attacking
what the moral sense Of every good man
tells him is wong. Every nan who is fit
for an editor does this, and his aggres
siVeness is great in proportion as his NOR
al vision is clear. But the aggressvene,s
which manifests itself Ia an indiscrimi.
nate use Of indecent and insulting lar .
guage about public officials. and those
who have in some way excited the wrath
Of the aggressive editor, ought to meet
with cold reception, and will from ev-
cry reasonable aud thinking man. A
man who has been elected 10 high Office
by the popular vote ought to be entitled
to respectful treatment from all, and
privsso man onghi to have sn'o and
speedy remedy 'gqiuet aggressive edi'Ori'

Centaur Liniments,

There is no pain which the Gem
taur Lniments will not relieve,
no swelling they will not subdue,
and no lamencss they will not
cure. This is strong language,
but it is true. They have pro-
duced more cures Of rheumatism,
neuralgia, lock-jaw, palsy, sprains, swcllngs,
caked breasts, scalds, burns sat-rhcum earache,
etc., upon tho human frame, and Of strains,
spavins, gals, etc, upon animals in one gear
than have all other pretended remedies since the
world began. They arc counter-irritant, all
healing pain believers. Crpples throw away
their crutchcs, the lame walk, poisonous bites are
rendered harmless and tho wounded arc healed
without scar. The recipe is published around
each bottle. They sell other article ever
sold before, and they sell because they do Just
what they pretend to do. Those who now suffer
from rheumatism, pain or swelling deserve to suf-

Boss" Tweed Escaped.

New York city and the whole country
the escape of Tweed, the great Tammany
ring boss of two or three years ago 1t
appears that Warden Durham took him
out to ride, drove him to the house of his
son-in.law Douglas, on Madison avenue
where his wife resided When they en-.
tered Tweed asked him for permission to
60 up stairs to see his wife, which was
granted. Tweed then went and stayed
up there about fifteen minutes, and Dur
ham becoming uneasy at his prolonged
absence, sent Tweed's son after him, but
on the latter's return he said that bis
father was not there. Tho warden then
rushed to the front door and looked up
and down the street, but he saw no per.
son resembling Tweed The carriage in
which they had come to the house was
found to be where they had loft it. Ho.
gan, assistant jailor, says he distinctly
say -TMfsd.Go nn.Uarec. or 4fans .stens -nt
the full fight Tie house was searched
from top to bottom, but no trace of the
fugitive was found.
Tweed's son was n very excited con-
dition when he learned of his fathers es.
cape, He pulled his hair and exclaimed
that he was ruined, as did also Douglas,
son.in-law of Tweed. Deputy Hogan
corroborated the foregoing statements.
Warden Durham admits having taken
Tweed out to drive some three or four
times while he was in custody, as Tweed
was complaining of terrible headaches.
The bonds given by the sheriff for the
proper and faithful performance of his
duties are for $4,000, aud those of War.
den Durham $4,000. The general i'm.
preston seems to be that some of Tweed's
friends have placed him on board a
steam tug which will place him on some
vessel bound for foreign country.

@ A recent decision in the Cana.
dian courts makes railway ticket mark.
ed Good for this day only" of no
"Good for this trip only" of no further
value if the holder stops over anywhere
on the road In like manner a ticket
reading GOOD for twenty days only
allows the holder to make ono continu.
Gus trip during the twenty days. If
our recollection serves us, the courts of
the states have arrived at quite different
decisions. They hold that the possessor
of ticket who has paid therefor full
value, is entitled to its use in order to
constitute proper consideration OF value
received. And this is as it should be.
The railroads ought to be protected from
fraud. but not at the expense of innocent
ticket holders. The most that can be
properly allowed is, that the non use of
ticket upon the day and trip for which
i. was issued throws the burden Of proof
that it has not been used upon the
holder.

THE WEEKLY SUN,
1776. NEW YORK. 1877

| Eighteen hundred and seyenty-six Is the Cen
tennial year. 1t is also the year in which an Op-
| position House of Representatives the first since
the war, will be in power at Washington; and the
year OF the twenty third election OF a President
Of the United States. All of these events arc
sure TO DC oil great interest and importance, espe-
oially the two latter; and all of them and eyery-
thing connected with them will be fully and
freshly reported and expounded in the Sun
The Opposition House Of Representatives, TAX
ing up the line of inquiry opened years ago by
the Sun, will sternly and diligently investigate
the cOrruptions and misdeeds Of Grants admins
tration; and will it is to be hoped, lay the foun-
dation for new and better period in our nation
nj history. Vi all this the Sun will contain COM
pleto and accurate accounts, furnishing its read
ers with carly and trustworthy information upon
these absorbing topics.
The twenty-third presidential election, with
the preparations for it, will be memorable as de-
Gliding upon Grants aspirations for third term
of power and plumber, and still moro as deciding
who shall BIO the candidate Of the party of Re-
form, and as electing that candidate. Concerning
all these subjects, those who read tho sun will
have the constant means Of being thoroughly we'll
informed
The Weekly Sun, which has attained cireula-
tion of over eighty thousand copies, already has
its readers in eyory State and Territory, and we
trust that tho year 1876 will see their numbers
doubled. II will continue to DO a thorough news
paper. All the general news of the day will DO
found in it, condensed when unimportant at full
length when of moment; and always, we trust,
treated in clear, interesting and instructive
manner.
1t is our aim to mako tho Weekly sun the best
family newspaper in the world and We shall con.
tinue to give in its columns large amount of
miscellaneous reading such Stories tales, po-
ems, scientific intelligence and agricultural in
formation, for which we are not able to make
room in our daily edition. The agricultural de-
partment especially is one Of its prominent fea-
lures. The fashions are also regularly reported
in its columnsi and so are the markets of every
kind.
The Weekly Sun, eight pages with ifty-six
bread columns, is only Sl,2O year, postage pre-
paid, As this price barely pays the cost of the
paper, no discount can be made from this rate to
clubs, agents, postmasters, or anyone.
The Daily sun, large four page paper of IS
columns, gives all the news for two cents copy.
