week days be a sheet of four pages, and on
Sundays a sheet of eight pages, or Sc broad col
umns; while the weekly edition will be a sheet
OF eight pages OF the same dimensions and char
acter that are already familiar to our friends.
The Sun will continue to be the strenuous ad-
VOcate Of reform and retrenchment, and of the
substitution of craftsmanship, wisdom, and
integrity for hollow pretencc, imbecility, and
fraud i'll the administration of police affairs.
1t will contend for the government Of the peo-
pie by the people and for the people, as opposed
to government by frauds in the ballot box and
Id the counting e. votes, enforced by military
violence. 1t will CAleavOr to supply its readers
a body now not far from a million of souls
with the most careful, complete, and trustw0r-
tiny accounts OF current events, md will employ
for this purpose a numerous and carefully Sc
lected staff of reporters and correspondents.
Its reports from Washington, especially, will be
I4uI, accurate, and fearless; and it will doubt
less continue to deserve and enjoy the hatred
Of those who thrive by plundering the Treasury
or by usurping what the law does not give them,
while it will endeavOr to merit the Confidence
of the public by defending the rights of the
people against the encroaclments of u~njusti-
fed power.
