1t is we'll known fact that clover has
the singular property Of not being able to
extract from the atmosphere, without the
aid ofmanure or stimulants, nitrogen
sufficient for its own proper growth and
nourishment. The straw and roots Of the
clover contain large amount of nitro

therefore as valuable to the next crop
sown as copious supply of guano.-

down the aisle half crazed with fright.
At the same time another young lady was
discovered to be in like situation; she

THE WEEKLY SUN.
NEW YORK.
1876.

Eighteen hundred and seventy six 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 cleo.
ton OF a 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 will be fully and freshly reported and
expounded in TIE SUN.
The Opposition House Of Representatives,
taking up the line of inquiry opened years ago
by The Sun, will sternly and diligently inves-
tigate 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 accurate accounts, fur
nishing its readers with early and trustworthy
information upon these absor bing 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
desciding whe 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 informed
The WEEKLY Sun, which has attained cir
culation of over eighty thousand copies, al
ready has its readers in every State and Terri
tory, and We trust that the year 1876 will see
their numbers doubled. 1t will continue to be
a thorough newspaper. 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 in a clear, inter
esting 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 sto-
ries, tales, poems, scientific intelligence and
agricultural information, for which we are not
able to make room in our daily edition. The
agricultural department especially Is one of its
prominent features. The fashions are also reg
ularly reported in its columns; and are the
markets of every kind.
The WEEKLY Sun, eight pages with ffty-six
broad columns is only Sl.20a year, postage pre-

the paper, no discount be made from this
rate to clubs, agents, pestmasters, or anyone.
