THE SUN FOR 1880.

THE SUN will deal with the events OF the
year 1850 in its own fashion, now pretty we'll
understood by everybody. From January !
until December 81 it Will be conducted ns n
newspaper written in The English language
and printed for the whole people.
As newspaper, TIE sun believes in get.
ting all the news of the world promptly and
presenting it in the most intelligble Shape
the shane that will enable its readers to Keep
well abreast OF the age with the least unprO-
ductivc expenditure OF time. The greatest
interest to the greatest numbeT-that is the
law controlling its daily makeup. 1t now
has circulation very much larger than that
OF any other American newspaper, and enjoys
an income which 1t is at 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 SUN; and they
all derive satisfaction of some sort from its
columns, for they keep on buying and read
ing 1t.
In its comments on men and affairs, THE
sun believes that the only guide of policy
should be commun sense inspired by genuine
American principles and backed by honesty
of purpose. For this reason IL is, and will con-
tinue to be absolutely Independent of party,
class, clique, organization, or interest. 1t is
for all, but ofnone. 1t will continue to praise
what is good and reprobate what is evil, TAX
ing care that its language is to the point and
plain beyond the possibility of being misun-
derstood. 1t is uninlluenced by motives that
do not appear on the surfaces it has no Opin-
ions to sell, save those which may be had by
any purchaser with two cents. Il hates in
Justice and rascality even more than it hates
unnecessary words. 1t abhors frauds, pities
fools, and nincOmpoOps of every species. Ii
will continue throughout the year 1850 to
chastise the first class instruct the second and
discOuntenance the third. All honest men,
with honest convictions, whether sound or
mistaken, are its friends And The sun
makes no bones of telling the truth to its
friends and about its friends whenever occa-
sion arises for plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which TAI
SUN will be conducted during the year t.
come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no patri
Otc American can afford to close his eyes tC
public affairs. 1t is impossible to eNaggeratC
the importance OF the political events which
it has in store, or the necessity of resoute Wig
ilance on the part Of every citizen who desires
to preserve the Government that the founder,
gave us. The debates and acts of Congress
the utterances Of the press, the exciting con
| tests of the Republican and Democratic par
ties. now nearly equal in strength Throughout
the country, tie varying DRIFT of public senti
mcnt,will all beardirectly and effectively upOr
the twenty-iourth Presidential election, to be
held in November. Four years ago next No
vember, the will 0tthe nation, as expire esscd al
the polls, was thwarted by Hn abOminable con
spiracy, the promoters and benehciaries o
which still hold the offices they stole. viii
the cr rlme Of 1876 be repeated in 1850? The
past decade OF years opened with corrupt
eStrayagant, and insolent Administration in
lGeOChCu AT W uSDlnBIOn. lHE sun Nlu some
thing toward disledgng the gang and break
ing its power. I he same men are now in
triguing to restore their leader and them
selves to places from which they were driver
by the Indignation of the people. VIII they
succeed? The coming year will bring thC
answers to these mumentous questions. TIL
SUN will be ON hand to chronicle the facts Il,
they are developed, and to exhibit them clear
ly and fearlessly in their relations to eXpedi
ency and right.
Thus, with 3 hahit of philosophical good
humOF IN looking at the minor affairs of life
and in great things n steadlast purpose tC
maintain the rights of the people and the
principles of the Constitution against all az.
gressors, IHE SUN is prepared TO write a
truthful, instructive, and entertaining history
of 1850.
