These are the principles upon which The

The year 1850 will be one in which no
patriotic American can afford to close his
eyes to public affairs. Tt is impossible to

of reso1ute vigilance on the part of every
ment that the founders gave us. The de-

held in November. Four years ago next
November, the will of the nation, as ex-
pressed at the polls, was thwarted by an
abominable conspiracy, the promoters and
beneticiaries of which still hold the offices
peated in 1850? The past decade of years
opened with corrupt, extravagant and in
solent Administrator intrenched at Wash
ington. The sun did something toward
dislodging the gang and breaking its power.
The same men now intriguing to restore
their leader and themselves to places from
which they were driven by the Indignation
OF the people. Will they succeed? The
coming year will bring the answers to these
momentous questions. The Sun will be on
hand to chronicle the facts they are do
veloped, and to exhibit them clearly and
fearlessly in their relations to expediency
and right.
Thus, with habit of philosophical good
humor in looking at the minor affairs of
life, and in great things steadtast purpose
to maintain the rights of the people and
the principles of the Constitution against all
| aggressors, The Sun is prepared to write a
truthful, instructive and entertaining his
| tory of 1880.
