The Sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred
OF rascals. frauds, and humbugs Of all sorts and
alze. It hopes to deserve that hatred not less
in the year 1879, than in 1873, 1877, or any year

wicked with unmitlgated brightness.
While the lessons OF the past should be ron
stantly kept before the people, Tie sun does
not propose to make itself in 1879 q magazine

women Of to-day, whose concern is chiefly with
the an2ira OF to-day. It has both the iispcsi-
