next year will be the same as during the year
that has just passed. The daily edition will on
week days be a sheet of four pages, and on
Sundays a sheet of eight pages, or IS broad col
nmns while the weekly edition will be a sheet
OF eight pages of the same dimensions and char
acter that are already amiliar 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
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 i'll the ballot box and
i'll the counting OF votes, enforced by military
violence. 1t will endeaVOr to supply its readers
a body now not far from a million Of souls
with the most careful, complete, and tTuStWOI-
thy accounts Of current events, and WillempIoy
for this purpose a numerous and carefully Sc
lected staff OF reporters and correspondent ats.
Its reports from Washington, especially, will be
full 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 uslrping what the law does not give them,
While 1t Will endeay0r TO merit the confidence
or the punllc by defending the rights of the
people against the en~crOachments of unjustl-

c%ulation, 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 a year, postage paid, the
expenses of paper and printing are barely re

the quality of it's contents, we are confident the
people will consider The Weekly Sun the cheap
est newspaper published in the world. and we
trust also one Of the very best.

The Virginius Massacre.

The Cuban General G.. J. Cook has
furnished the Kansas City Times with a
tragic description of the massacre of the
people captured with the Virginius by
Spaniards. Details of the shooting are
not new, but the ending of Lieut.. Que
sada has never been told before. The
Spaniards entered the prison pen to
inform Cook and his comrades of their
sentence, and "Lieut. Quesada, when he
saw Gen. Burriel, became so enraged
that he began abusing him by calling
him butcher, coward, thief, and ended
by saying: Murderer! You have killed
my two sisters; yon have caused to be
murdered nv father, mother and brother,
and if God does not grant me the privi-
lege of killing you he will at least my
half brothers, who are yet alive, and will
avenge us all, and hope the day is not
far Off Whereupon he sprung upon
Burriel, but only to receive his (B.'s)
knife in his side, and to be literally torn
to pieces by the bayonets of the soldier
guards, of whom there were over 500 in
the yard. Quesada's heart was then cut
out and smeared in the faces of Cespedes
and Del Vol" Col. Pacheco and Cook
were marched out at one o'clock and
placed in position, their faces toward the
slaughter house wall. They "knelt down
and the orders were given: Prime heavy;
aim, one, when the word 'haltr came
