What Is a Gentleman I?

In an address to the Leeds
Young Mems Christian .Associa-
ton, by the Bishop of Manchester,
he said: "Some people think q
gentleman''mean a, man of indie
pendent fortune-a man who has
clothes made in the height of
fashion by the most expensive tai
lor-a man who fares sumptuously
every day; a man who need not
work hard for daily bread None
of these make O gentleman--not
one of them-not all of them to-
gether. I have known, and when
/ was brought closer into contact
with workingmen than from my
changed position I am brought
now, 1 have known men of the
toughest exterior, who had been
accustomed all their lives to follow
the plow and looked after horses,
rs thorough gentlemen in heart as
any nobleman that ever wore a
ducal coronet. l mean / have
known them as unselfish, Ishave
known them as tender, 1 have
known them as kind, have known
them as sympathizing; and ali
these qualities so.to make what !
understand by the. term.'a gentle
tleman.' 1t is q noble privilege
which has been sadly prostituted,
and what | want to tell you is, that
the humblest man, who has the
lowest work to do. yet, if his heart
be tender, and pure, and true,
may be, in sthe,tmost emphatic
sense of tho word, n gentleman"

THE
WEEKLY SUN.
THE
1776. NEW YORK. 1876.

Eighteen hundred and seventy
six is the Centennial year. 1t is
also the year when an Opposition
House of Representatives, the first
since the war, will be in power at
Washington: and the year of the
twenty-thDd election OF a President
of the United States. All of these
events are sure to be of great inter
est aud Importance, especially to the
two latter; and all of them and ev.
erything connected with them will
be fully and freshly reported and
eXpOunded i'll The Sun.
The Opposition House of Repre-
sentatives, taking up the line of in
quiry opened years ago by The Sun,
will sternly and diligently investi-
gate the cOrruptions and misdeeds
of Grants administration and will,
it is to be hoped, lay the foundation
for new and better period in our
National history. Of all this The
Sun will contain complete and ac-
curate accounts, furnishing its read
ers with early and trustworthy in
formation upon these absorbing
topics.
The twenty third Presidential
election, with the preparations for
it, will be memorable as deciding
upon Grants aspirations for third
term of power and plumber, and
still more as deciding who shall be
the candidate of the party of Re-
T rm, and as electing that candidate.
Concerning all these subjects, those
who read The Sun have the constant
means of being thoroughly well in
formed.
The Weekly Sun, which has at
tanned a circulation of over eighty
thousand copies, already has its
readers i'll every State and Territory,
and we trust that the year 1876 will
see their numbers. doubled. 1t will
continue to be a thorough news
paper. All the general news of the
day will be found in it, condensed
when unimpOrtant, at full length
when of moment and always, We
trust, treated ill u clear, interesting
and instructive manner.
1t is our aim to make the Weekly
Sun the best family newspaper in
the world, and we shall continue to
give in its columns large amount
of miscellaneous reading, such as
stories, tales, poems, scientific in
telligence and agricultural infOrIna-
ton, for which we are not able to
make room in our daily edition.
The agricultural department espe-
cially is one of its prominent fea-
lures. The fashions are also regu-
larry reported in its columns and
so are the markets of every kind.
The Weekly Sun, eight pages
with fifty-six broad columns is only
S1.20 year, postage prepaid. AS
this price barely repays the cost of
the paper, no discount can be made
from this rate to clubs, agents, post
masters, or anyone.
The Daily Sun, a large four page

goes, happy; he who knows how
to do it morning, noon and night;
he who knows how to make love

knows how to radiate sympathy,

forbearance, and patience toward
others, and to make men feel richer
