Judge Marshall and the Turkev.

Chief Justice Marshall was great
man; but great men are apt to be
proud. lie was not too proud to
wait upon himself, and the carrying
HON his purchases. Often would he
be seen going home at sunrise with
poultry in one hand and vegetables
in the other.
On one of these occasions, a fasho
, 1ona6Ie young man from the North
VINO had removed to Richmond, was
swearing violently because he could
nno no one to carry home his turkey.
Judge Marshall stepped up and asks
cd where he lived. When he heard
he said:
"That is my way; will take your
turkey home for you.
When they came to the house the
young man asked, "What shall |
pay youa"
"Ob, nothing" said tho Judge.
"you are welcome; it was all in my
way, and it was no trouble to me-"
"Who is that polite old man who
brought home my turkey for me2"--
said the young man of a by.stander.
"Oh," said be, "that was Judge
Marshall, Chief Justice of the United
States"
"Why did he bring home my tur.

THE SUN.

The different editions Of THE SUN during
the next year will be the same as during the
year that has passed. The daily edition will
on weak days be q sheet of four pages, and on
Sundays sheet OF eight pages, or sc broad
columns; while the weekly edition will be O.
sheet of eight pages Of the same dimensions
and character that are already familiar to our
friends.
The Sun will continue to be the strenuous
advocate of reform and retrenchment, and of
the substitution Of craftsmanship, wisdom,
and integrity for hollow pretence, imbecility,
and fraud In the administration of public af-
talrs. 1t will contend for the government of
the people by the people and for tho people,
as opposed to government by frauds in the
ballot box and in the counting Of votes, en-
forced by military violence. Il will cndeavor
TO supply its readers-a body now not far
from million of souls-wth tho most care
tul, complete, and Trustworthy accounts of cur
rent events, and will employ for this purpose
numerous and carefully selected staff of re-
porters and correspondents. It's reports from
Washington, especially, will be full, accurate,
| and fearless; and it will doubtless continue to
| deserve and cnjoy the hatred OF those who
| thrive by plundering the Treasury or by
! usurping what the law does not give them,
! while 1t will endeavor to merit the confid ence
OF the public by defending the rights of the
| people against the cncroachments of uniusti.
fed power.
| The price Of the daily Sun will be IS cents
month or Sc 80 year, post paid, or with
the Sunday edition 81 70 q year
| The Sunday edition alone, eight pages,
$l ~ year, post paid.
The Weekly Sun, eight pages of Sc broad
columns will be furnished during 1877 at the
rate of 81 year, post paid.
The benefit of this large reduction from the
previous rate for The Weekly can be enjoyed
| by individual subscribers without the neces /.
sity of making up clubs. At the same time,
if any Of our friends choose to aid In extend
ing our circulation, We shall be grateful to
Them, and every such person who sends us ten
or more subscribers from one place will be
entitled to one copy of the paper for himself
without charge. At one dollar q year, post
age paid, the expenses of paper and printing
are barely repaid; and, considering the size
of the sheet and the quality of its contents,
VIC are confident the people will consider The
Week. Sun the cheapest newspaper publish>
ed in the world, and we trust also one of the
very best. Address,
