THE SUN FOR 1880.

The Sun will deal with the events of the year
lSSO in its own fashion, now pretty well under
stood by everybody. From january until DE
cember 81 it will be conducted as II newspaper,
written in the English language, aud printed for
the people.
AS a newspaper, the Sun believes in getting all

it in the most Ineligible shape-the shape that
will enable its readers to keep well abreast of
the age with the least unprOductive expenditure

principles and backei by honesty of purpose.

opinions to sell, save those which may be had by
any purchaser with two cents. 1t hates injustice
and rascality even more than it hates unnecessary
words. 1t abhOrs frauds, pities fools, and de-
pOres nincOmpOOps Of every species. 1t will
continue throughout the year 1850 to chastise the
first class, Inst instruct the second and a,scSunle.
