MISCELLANEOUS.
THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every try
during the year to come. Its purpose and
method will be the same as in the past.
To present all the news in readable
shape, and TO tell tho truth though the
heaven ms fall.
THE SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to BIZ independent OF everybody and
everything save the Truth and its own
convictions OF duty. That is the policy
which has won for this newspaper the con-
fidence and friendship Of wider cons titu-
ency thsn was ever enjoyed by any other
American Journal.
THE SUN is tie newspaper for the peo-
pie. 1t is not ior the rich man against
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
founded Tor the people. Whenever the
Constitution and constitutional principles
are vIolated-as in the outrageous conspir-
acy of 1876, by which man not elected
was a ed IN the p iesident's office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is rHh SUMS idea of inde-
penaence. Iu this respect there will be no
change in its programme for 1879.
The sun has fairy earned the hearty
I. IL,
all sort. and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that h. red 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.
Whist the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before the people, 4 1HE
SUN does not propose to make itself in
1879 magazine of ancient history. 1t is
printed for the men and Eemen 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. 10 this End the resources belong
ing to well-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disj, inted condition Of par
ties in this country and the uncertainty OF
the future lend an extraordinary signifi-
cance to the events Of the coming year.
The discussions OF the press, the debates
and acts Of Congress, and tho movements
of the leaders i'll every section of the Re-
public, will have direct bearing on the
p esidental election of 1880-an event
which must be regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
ican, whatever his po ,itlcal ideas or slle-
glance. To these elements of interest may
DO added the probability that the Demo-
Gratis VIII control both houses of Congress,
the increa-ing feebleness OF the fraudulent
Administration, and the spread and
strength, ming everywhere OF healthy ali,
horrence of fraud in any form. To pre-
sent with accuracy and clearness the exac.
situation in each OF its var, ing phases, and
to expound, according to its wel-known
methods, the principles that should guide
us through the labyrinth, will he an inn
portant part of THE SUMS work for 1879.
