the SUN FOR 1880.

THE SUN will deal with the events OF
the year 1880 in its own fashion, now pretty
we'll understood by everybody. From jan
nary until December 81 it will be con-
Quoted as newspaper, written in the Eng
lish language, and printed for the people.
As a newspaper, THE Sun believes in
getting all the news OF the world promptly,
and presenting it in the most ineligible
shape 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 larger than that Of any other Amer
lean newspaper, and enjoys an income
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 Sun; and
they all derive satisf action Of come sort
from its columns, for they keep on buying
and reading it.
In its comments on men and affairs,
THE SUN believes that the only guide Of
policy should be commoa sense, inspired
BY genuine American principles and
backed by honesty Of purpose. For this
reason it Is, and will continue to be, abso-
lutely independent OF party, class, clique
organization or interest. 1t 10 for all, bu
| of none. 1t will continue to praise wha
| is good and reprobate what is evil, taking
care that its language is to the point anC
| plain, beyond the possibility of being mis-
understood. 1t is uninduenced by motives
| that do not appear on the surface; it has NJ
opinions to sell. save those which may BIZ
had by any purchaser with two cents. II
hates injus tice and rascality even more
than it hates unnecessary words. 1t abh0rs
r.. .. all
poops Of every species. 1t will continue
throughout the year 1880 to chastise the
first class, instruct the second and discoun-
tenance the third. Ali honest men, with
honest convictions, whether sound or IBIS.
taken, are its friends. And THE Sun
makes no bones If telling the truth to its
| friends and about its friends whenever oc
casion arises for plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which
| THE SUN will be conducted during the
year to come.
| The year 1880 will be one in which nc
| patriotic American can afford to close hii
eyes to public affairs. 1t is impossible t.
| exaggerate the importance of the political
events which it has in store, or the neces
sity of res6lute vigilance on the part Of
| every citizen who desires to preserve the
| Government that the founders gave US
i

| of the Republican and Democratic parties.
now nearly equal in strength throughout
the country, the varying drift Of public
sentiment, will all bear directly and effect

election, to be- held IN November. Four
wears ago next November the will Of the
nation, as expressed at the polls, was
thwarted by an abominable conspiracy, the
promoters and beneiciaries Of which still
hold the offices they stole. Will the crime
Of 1876 be repeated in 1880? The past dec.

something toward dislodging the gang and
