THE WEEKLY SUN.
ZIG. NEW YORK. 1916.

Eighteen hundred and seyenty-s is the
Centennial year.. 1t is also the year in which
an Opposition House of Representatives, the
first Since the war, will be in power at Wash
ington; and the year OF the twenty -third elec-
uion Of q President OF the United States. All
of these events are sure to be Of great interest
and Importance, especially the two latter; and
all OF them and everything connected with
them viii be fully and freshly reported and
expounded in THE SUN.
The Opposition House Of Representatives,
taking up the line Of inquiry opened years ago
by TILE SUN, will .sternly and diligently IN
vestigate the Corruptions and misdeeds of
Grants administration; and WILL it is to be
hoped, lay the foundation for new and bet
ter period in our national history. OF all this
THE SUN will contain complete and accurate
accounts, furnishing Its readers with early
aud Trustworthy information upon these ab-
sorbing topics.
the preparations for it, will be memorable as
deciding upon Grants aspirations for third
term of power and plunder, and still more as
deciding who shall be the candidate of the
party Of Reform, and as electing that candi-
date. Concerning all these subjects, those
who read THE SUN will have the constant
means OF being thoroughly well in nformed.
The " EEKLY SUN. which mas attained a
circulation OF over eighty thousand copies, al
ready has its readers IN every State and Ter
ritory, and we trust that the year 1875 win see
their numbers doubled. 1t will continue TO be

tural department especially is one OF its prom

TILE Democracy Of ''Seeessia" have
been immensely yoondescending this Cen
tennal year, and have actually declined
to present any candidate for the Presi-
dency from 'stheir section" Their or
gans have frequently enunciated this
selEabnegation, and have as frequently
been applauded for their patriotic self
denial. The generosity OF this thing be-
comes transparent when it comes to be
considered that their eandidata, if nom.-
mated, would be beaten so bad that his
own granny wouldn't know him from an
Egyptian mummy.

A farmer at Cohoes, N. Y, dreamed
that he was feeding his cows the other

same words over and over again until he

CHINESE COTTON aGooDs.-We see it
announced that the Chinese rulers are
preparing to establish manufactures of
cotton goods on the European plan.
Conserving this New York exchange
says: 'tThis may prove the beginning Of
an Industrial moyement which will de-
prive Great Britain Of one of her best
customers for textile fabrics." We
would suggest to our cotempory that the
danger he speaks OF is of more impor-
tance to the United States than to
Great Britain, whose impending misfor4
tune he laments. The American cotton
goods, more largely than any other,
supply the Chinese consumption. Our
cotton fabrics are regarded there with
more favor than the Britiah. So much
so, indeed, that certain English manu-
lecturers have been detected In the very
honorable % enterprise of using the
American manufaetu rers' trade marks
In order to place their cotton goods on
the Chinese market with any chance OF
successful competition. The fraud was
discovered and made known by the Chi
nese themselves. China could well
manufacture cotton. They have great
skill in the production of textiles; and
the raw cotton from India and her own
Southern provinces would supply her
factories. The management of our ma
chinery would be their chief impedi-
ment.

1T is to be regretted that Mr.. Blaine
has been stricken with sudden illness.
But suoh being the fact, it would be an
infinite wrong for his political friends,
either knowingly or unknowingly, to
mislead the present Convention as to
theextent or nature of his sudden stroke
sf'illness. Should that stroke be such
rs the facts detailed would indicate,
and he should be nominated under a
mlsconception oil its nature, the Repup-
lican party would probably be hopelessly
ruined; aud all in a vain attempt 10
give promotion to broken down man.
Conceal it as the physicians may,
enough has transpired to signify thai
MIR. Blaine has suffered slight stroke

he had lost the power Of speech to some
Gegfee for time; that now She has re.
copered the use OF his limbs" and could
turn himself in bed, &c. These are each
aud all indications OF paralysis from
softening of the brain. The paralysis,
in such case, is not itself the disease,
but simply the symptom or manifesto
hon Of the disease situated in the brain
Itself, and the heat Of the sun was but
the exciting cause Of this manifestation.
Under such circumstances, ii our con.

HAVANA, the metropolis of the "Queen
of,the Antilles" has been having SEN
sational crookedness on a gold basis. A
collector of taxes, Ricardo Menocal by
name, levanted from Cuba to the United
States with $4a0 600 in Spanish gold. AT
the request OF the Captaia General of
Cuba detectives were put upon the tugi-
tive's track with orders to arrest. But,
unfortunately for the Cuban Governor /,
there is no extradition treaty between
us and Spain, SO that signor Menocal
can not be touched by arrest until he is
found upon Spa nish ground, which soil
he will doubtless most diligently avoid.

This was made by a man who was a

the stranger during the bidding, now
went up to him and said:
pardon me for asking the question,
but will you tell me where you are

"Down South bit," responded the
man.

"yOu need not take this animal unless

"What on earth are you going to do
with such an ugly beast if you have no
show of your own, and are not buying
for some one who is a showman?"
"Well, I'll tell yOu," said the pur-
chaser. my wife died about three
weeks ago. We had lived together for
ten years, and-I miss her." He paused
to wipe his eyes and steady his voice,
and then added" so I've bought this
