THE SUN FOR 1880.

THE Sun Will deal with the events OF the year
eS0 in its fashion, now pretty well understood
b. every body. From January TO December 81 it
viii be conducted a. a newspaper, written In the
English language, and printed for The people.
As q newspaper, The SCN believes in getting all
the news of the world promptly, and presenting
il IN the most ineligible shape-the shape that
will enable its readers to keep we'll abreastof the
age with the least unprodEcIiyc expenditure of
time. The greatest interest to the greatest num-
Der that is, the law controlling its daily makeup.
Ii now has circulation very much larger than
that of any other American newspaper, and enjoys
an income which il Is at all times prepared TO
spend literally for the benefit of its readers. Peo-
pie of ali conditions Of life and ali ways of think
ing buy and read THE SUN; and they all derive
satisfaction o. some sort from its columns, for
they keep on buying and reading il.
In lis comments on men and affairs IHE Sun
believes that the only guide of policy should be
common sense. inspired by genuine American
principles and backed by honesty OF purpose For
this reason 1t is, aud viii continue TO be, absolute
ly independent OF party, class, clique, organiZa
cation or interest. 1t is for all, bur of none 1t
will continue TO praise what il good and repro
bate what is evil, taking that its language is
to the point and plain, beyond the possibility of
being misunderstood. 1t is unln1uenced by mo-
tiyes that do not appear on the surface il has
opinions to sell, save those which NAV be had by
any purchaser with two cents. Ii hates injustice
and rascaiity even more than it hates unnecessary
words. ltabhors frauds, pties fools, and depiores
nlncompoops OF every species. II Will continue

All honest men, with honest convictions, wheth-
er sound or mistaken, are its friends. And The
SUS makes bones of telling the truth to its
| friends and about its friends whenever occasion
arises for plain speaking
These are the principles upon which THE Sun
VIII be conducted during the year to come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no patriotic
American can afford to close his eyes to public at
fairs. 1t is impossible to exaggerate the import
ance OF the political events which it has in store
or the necessity OF resolute vigilance the part
of every citizen who desires to preserve the gov
eminent that the founders gave us. The debates

the exciting contests of the republican and dem
ocratic parties, nearly equal in strength
throagnout the country the varying drift OF pub
lie sentiment will all bear directly and effectively
upon the twenty-fourth presidential election TO
be held in November. -Four years ago next No
vember the viii of the nation, expressed at the

the promoters and benefcaries Of which still hold
the offices they stole. Will the crime OF 1876 be

breaking its power. The same men are now in

places from which they were driven by the indig-
nation of the Deope. VIII they succeed? The
