attention, lecturer of that sort. brim

Vile, and gave series Of Talks to the
people, and examined large number of
heads, made charts at so much each, and,
in short, developed quite an amount Of
hidden vice and virtue which had not
been before even suspected among the
good people of that city. Tom Marshall
was present and enjoyed the exercises.

journed to the Gait House to post books
and render judgment, on the science it.

penny catching business-and to satisfy
the people he was right; he would take
any number of men who chose to go into
the parlor adjoining and make
the experiment, although he was little
the worse from an overdose of Bourbon.
Many went in, and Tom seated them,
and went round from man to man, most
Of whom he khew, and made vast
amount of fun for the crowd, as he al
ways could on almost any provocation.
1t so happened that, among the persons
present, a Louisville buck, of scant

The approach of the Presidential cleo

faithfully, and fearlcssly.
THE WEEKLY sun has now attain
cd IL circulation of over seventy thou
sand copies. Its readers are found in
every State and Territory, and its quail
ty is we'll known to tho public. We
sl.all NOT only en0cavor to keep it fully
up to the old standard, but to improve
and add to it's variety and power.
THE WEEKLY sun will continue to
be a thorough newspaper. All the news
of the Gay will be found in it, condens-
ed when unmportant, at full length
when of moment, and always, we trust,

pr"priate reading Of every sort, but will

and legibly printed.
The Agricultural Department is
prominent feature in the Weekly Sun,
and its articles will always he found
fresh and useful to the farmer.
The number Of men independent in
politics is increasing, and the Weekly
Sun is their paper especially. 1t belongs
to no party, and obeys no dictation, con-
tending for principle, and for the election
OF the best men. 1t exposes the corrup-
ton that disgraccs the country and
threatens the overthrow of republican
institutions. 1t has no fear of knayes.
and seeks no favUrs from their support
erS.
The markets of every kind and the
fashions are regularly reported in its
columns.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one
dollar a year for sheet of eli ght pages,
and tifty-six columns. As this barely
pays expenses of paper and printing, we
are not able to make any discount or al
low any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend it's circula-
ton. Under the new law, which re-
quires payment of postage in advance,

Good, however, rs the Saturday Even.
