MlSCELLA N EOUS.
the SUN FOR 1880.

THE SUN will deal with the events Of
the year 1880 in its own fashion, now pretty
well understood by everybody. From Jan.
uary until December 81 it will be con.
Quoted as newspaper, written in the Eng
llsh language. and printed for the people.
As a newspaper, THE sun bell YES in
getting all the news Of the world promptly,
aud presenting it in the most ntelligible
shape-the sh pc that will enable its read
ers to keep well abreast of the age with the
least unproductive expenditure of time.
The greatest interest to the greatest num-
ber-that is the law controlling its daily
makeup. 1t now has circulation very
much arger than that Of any other Amer
lean newspaper, and enjoys an incom
which it is ut all times prepared to spend
| literally for the benefit Of its readers.
People of all conditions of life and all ways
OF thinking buy and read The eUN; and
they all derive satisf .ction of some sort
from its columns, for they k ep on buying
and reading 1t.
In its comments on men and affairs,
TIL n sun believes that the only guide Of
policy should be common sense, inspired
by genuine American principles and
b4cked by honesty vi purpose. For this
reason 1t is, and Will continue to be, abso-
lutely Independent of party, class. clique,
organization or interest. 1t is for all. but
OF none. 1t will continue to praise what
is good and reprobate what is evil, taking
care that its language is to the point and
plain, beyond the pos -ibility OF being mis-
understood. 1t is uiinhuenced by motives
that 40 not appear On the surface: it has no
opinions to sell, save those which may be
had by any purchaser with two cents. 1t
hates injus tice and rascality even moro
than it hates UNNECESSARY words. 1t abhors
frauds, pities tools, and deplores nincom.
poops OF every species. 1t will continue
throughout the year 1880 to chastise the
tirst CLASS, instruet the second and discount
tenance the third. ALI honest men, with
honest convictions, whether sound or mis-
taken, are its friends. And THE SUN
makes no bones If telling the truth to It's
friends and about its frenA whenever o.
casion arises for plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which
THE BUN will be conducted during the
year to come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no
patriotic american can afford to close his
eyes to public affairs. 1t is impossible to
exaggerate the Importance OF the political
events which it has in store, or tbs neces-
sity OF resolute vigilance on the part of
every citizen who desires to preserve the
Government that the founders gave us.
The debates and acts OF Congress, the ut
terances of the press, The exciting contests
OF the Republican and Democratic parties,
now nca ly equal in strength throughout
the country, the varying drift OF public
sentiment, will all bear directly and effect |
lively upon the twenty-fourth Presidential
election, to be held IN November. -Four |
years ago next November the will of tie |
nation, as expressed at the p dis, was
thwarted by ali abominable conspiracy, the |
promoters and benenciaries Of when still |
hold the offices they stole. Will the crime
Of 1876 be repeated in 1881? The last dec
ade Of years opened with corrupt, extrav. |
agant and ilsolent Administration in
t. enched ut as ,lngton. The SUN did |
something toward dlsiodgiag the gang and |
b. eaking its power. Inc same men are |
now intriguing 20 restore their leader and |
themselves to places from which they were |
driven by the Indignation of the people. |
ill they succeeuF he coming year will |
bring tie answers to these momentous
questions. The sun viii be ON h iiu to
CHI once the facts as they are desela Typed,
and to exhibit hem ciear.y and fearioeply
in heir relations to exp.Giency aud risht.
Thus, with habit OF phi loso, hlcai good
humor in looking at the minor aiiai oi

pose to maintain the rights Of the people
and the principles OF the Constitution
against all uggres. ors, TIL + sun il pre-
