FOR 1879.

THE Sun will be printed every
day during the year TO come. Its pur-
pose and method will be the same as
in the past: TO present to al! the news
in a readable shape, and TO tell the
truth though the heavens fall.
THE SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to lie independent of tveryb body
and everything save the Truth and its
own convictions of duty. That is the
only policy which an honest newspa-
per need have. That is the only policy
which hes won for ;his newspaper the
confidence ami friendship of a wider

by any other American journal
TIE Sun is the newspaper of the
people. Ii is not for the rich man
against the poor man. or for the poor
man against tie rich, but it seeks TO
do equal Justice 10 all Interests in the
community 1t is not the organ of
any person, class, sect. or party.

THE sun has fairly earned the
hearty haired of rascals. frauds, and
humbugs Of all sorts and sizes. 1t
hopes to deserve that hatred not less
in the year 1879 than in 1878, 1877, or
any year gone by. The Sun is print
ed for the men and women of to-day,
whose concern is chiefly with the af-
fairs of to-day. 1t has both the dispO-
sitiOn and the ability TO afford its read
ers the promptest, fullest and most ac-
curate intelligence of whatever in the
vide world is worth attention. To
this end the resources belonging to
well established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present di-jointed condition of
parties In this country, and the I'M
certainty of the future, lend an extra
ordinary significance to the events of
the coming year. To present with
accuracy and clearness the exact sit

and to expound, according to it's we'll
