THE sun FOR 1880.

The SUN will deal with the events Of the year
1850 in its own fashion, now pretty well under
stood by everybody. From January l until De-
cember 81 it will be conducted - newspaper,
written in the English language, and printed for
the people.
AS newspaper, the SUN believes in getting all
the news of the world promptly, and presenting

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 when
ever occasion arises for plain speaking:
These are the principles upon which the Sun
will be cOnduted during the year to come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no patriotic
American can afford to close his ewes to public
affairs. It is impossible to aggerate the impor-
or the necessity of resOlute vigilance on the part
of every citizen who desires to preserve the Gov
eminent that the founders gave us. The debates
and acts Of Congress, the utterances Of the press
the exciting contests Of the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties, now nearly equal in strength
throughout the country, the varying drift Of
public sentiment, will all bear directly and efec-

to chronicle the facts as they are developed, and
to exhibit them clearly and fearessly in their re-
