MISCELLANEOUS.
the SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every .a.y
during the year to come. Its pui pose and
| method will be the same as in the past
10 present all the news in q readable
shape, and to tell the truth though the
| heavs MS fall.
1HE SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to be independent of everybody and
everything ave the Truth and its own
convictions Of duty. That is the policy
fience and friendship Of wider cons itu-
ency thsn was ever enjoyed by any other
american Journal.
THE SUN is tho newspaper for the peo-
! pie. 1t is not ior the rich man agains I
The poor man, or for the poor man against
the rich man, but it seeks to do equal JUS
tice to all classes in the community 1t is
not the organ OF any person, class, sect or
party. There need be no mystery about
its loves and hates. 1t is for the honest
man against the rogues every time. 1t is
for the honest Democrat as against the
dishonest Republican, and for the honest
Republican as against the dishonest Dem
ocrat. 1t does not take its cue from the
utterances Of any politician or political Or
ganization. 1t gives its support unreserv-
edly when men or measures are in agree-
ment with the Constitution and with the
principles upon which this Republic was
founded Tor the people. Whenever the
Constitution and constitutional principles
are violated-as in the outrageous conspir-
acy of 1876, by which a man not elected
was piare ed IN the Presidents office, where
he still remains--it speaks out for the
right. That is rHE SUNS idea Of indie
pendence. In this respect there will be no
change in its programme for 1879.
The Sun has fairly earned the hearty
hatred of rascals, frauds and humbugs Of
all sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that haired not less in the year 1879 than
in 1878. 1877, or any year gone by. THE
sun will continue to shine on the wicked
with unmitigated brightness.
Whilst the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before the people, THE
SUN does not propose to make itself in
1873 a magazne Of ancient history: 1t is
printed for the men and women Of to-day,
whose concern is chiefly with the affairs OF
to-day. 1t has both the disposition and
the ability to afford its readers the prompt
est, fullest and most accura, intelligence
Of whatever in the wide world is worth at
tention. To this end the resources belong
ing to well.established prosperity will be |
literally employed.
The present disjointed condition OF par
ties in this country and the uncertainty Of
the future lend an extraordinary signif-

The discussions OF the press, the debates
and acts Of Congress, and the movements
of the leaders i'll every section Of the Re-
public, will have direct bearing on the
Presidential election Of 1880-an event
which must DO regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer |
lean, whatever his political ideas or slle- |
glance. To these elements Of interest may |
be added the probability that the Demo-
Gratis w II control both houses of Congress, |
the increasing feebleness OF the fraudulent |
administration, and the spread and |
ming everywhere of healthy al, |
horrence OF fraud in any form. 10 pre-
sent with accuracy and clearness the exact |
in each of its varying phases, and
to expound, according to its weil-known
methods, the principles that should guide
us through the labyrinth, will DO an i'm
portant part of THE SUMS work for 1879.
