THE SUN FOR 1880.

The SUN viii deal with the events of the veal
1850 in its own fashion, now pretty well understood
by everybody. From January l till December 81 il
| VIII be conducted a newspaper written in the
| English language and printed for the whole peo-
! pie.
As newspaper, THE sun believes in getting all
/ he news of the world promptly, and presenting il
IA the most Ineligible shape-the shape that will
unable its readers to keep well ARREST of the ACE
with the least unprOductive expenditure of time
the greatest interest to the greatest number-that
- the law controlling its daily makeup 1t now
has circulation very much larger than that of any
liner American newspaper, and enjoys income
hich it is at all times prepared to spend literally
Tor the benefit of its readers People of all con-
| ditions of life and all ways of thinking buy and
read THE SUN; and they all derive satisfaction of
some sort from its columns, for they keep on buy

believes that the only guide of policy should be
common sense, inspired by genuine American prin-
ciples and backed by honesty of purpose. For
this reason it is, and viii continue to be- absolutely
independent of party, class, clique, organization
or interest. 1t is for ALL but of nome It will con-
tinue to praise what is good and reprobate what
is evil taking that its language to the point
and plain, beyond the possibility Of being misun-
derstood. 1t is uDinfuenced by motives that do
not appear on the surface; it has no opinions to
SELL save those which may be had by any purchaser
with two cents. 1t hates injustice and ras.aIity
than it hates unnecessary words 1t
abhors frauds, pities fools, and deplores min
compoops of every species. 1t will continue
throughout the year 1880 to chastise the first class
instruct the second, and discountenance the third
All honest men, with honest convictions whether
sound or mistaken, are its friends. And THE sun
makes no bones of telling the truth to list friends
and about its friends whenever occasion arises for
plsin speaking.
These are the principles upon which THE sUN
win be conducted during the year to come.
The year 1880 will be one which no patriotic
American can afford to close his eyes to public
affairs. 1t is impossible to exaggerate the impor-
lance of the political events which it has in store
the necessity of resoute vigilance the part of
every citizen who desires to preserve the Govern
ment that the founders gave us The debates aud
acts of Congress, the utterances of the press the
exciting contests of the Republican and Democrats
parties, how near equal in strength throughout
the country, the varying drift of public sentiment
will all bear directly and effectively upon the
twenty-fourth Presidential election, to be held in
November. Four years ago aext November the
will of the nation, as expressed at the polls was
thwarted by an apomlnable conspiracy, the pro-
moters and benehciaries of which still hold the
offices they stole VIII the crime of 1876 be re-
peated in 1880? The passed decade of years OPEN
ed with corrupt, extravagant, and insolent Adj
intrenched at Washington, The sun
did something towards dislodging the gang and
breaking its power The same are now in |
trguing to restore their leader and themselves to
places from which they driven by the indigna-
ton Of the people viii they succeed? The COM
ing year will bring the answers to these momen- |
tous questions. THE SUN will be on hand to
chronicle the facts as they developed, and to |
exhibit them clearly aud fearessly III their rela-
lions to expediency and right
