LITERARY
THE SUN FOR 1878.

THE SUN will be printed every day
during til, car to como. its purpose and
method will be the same as in the past
10 present all the news in II readablt
shape, anu to tell the truth though thu
heavens fall
The SUN has been, is, anj will con
tinue to be independent of everybody ane
every thing sive the Truth and its Owl
convi lions of duty. That is the policy
which has won for this newspaper the con
fdence and friendship of wider constitu.
eucy than was ever enjoyed by any Other
American Journal.
THE BUN is the newspaper for the peo-
pie. 1t is not Tor 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 unresorv-
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 1873, by which a man not elected
was placed III the Presidents Office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is THE SUMS idea of indie
pendence. In this respect there will be no
change in its programme for 1873.
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty
hatred OF rascais, frauds and humbugs Of
ali sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that haired not iess in the year 1879 than
in 1878, 1877, or any year gone by. THE
sun will continue to shine on tho wicked
with unmitisated brightness.
Whilst the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before the people, 1HE
SUN does not propose to make itself III
1879 a magazine Of ancient history. 1t is
printed for the men and yemen 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 accuraIe intelligence
Of whatever in the wide world is worth at
tortion. To this end the resources belong
ing to well-established prosperity will 10
literally employed.
The present disjointea condition OF par
ties in this country and the uncertainty of
the future lend an extraordinary signif-
The discussions OF tho press, the debates
and acts of Congress, and the movements
OF the leaders iu every section Of the Re-
public, will have u direct bearing on the
Presidential election of 16a0-an event
which must lie regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
ican, whatever his political ideas or alle-
glance. To these clements Of interest may
lie added the probability tuat the Demo-

the increasing feebieness oi the fraudulent

sent with accuracy and clearness the exact
situation in each OF its vary wing phases, and
to expeund, according to its well-known
methods, the principles that should guide
us through the labyrinth, Will te an Im-
