THE SUN FOR 1881 !

Everybody reads THE Sun. In the editions
of this newspaper throughout the year to
come everybody will find:
l. All the worlds news, so presented that
the reader will get the greatest amount of
information with the least Improbable ex-
Penditure, of time and eye-sight. THE SUN
long ago discovered the golden mean between
redundant fulness and unsatisfactory breyity
II. Much of that sort of news which de-
ponds less upon its recognized Importance
than upon its interest to mankind. From
morning to morning THE sun prints con-
tinued story of the lives of real men and wo-
men, and their deeds. plans, loves, hates, and
troubles. This story is more varied and more
interesting than any romance that was ever
devised.
III. Good writing in every column, and
freshness, originality, accuracy and decorum
Nv. Honest comment. The SUNS habit is
to speak out fearlessly about men and things.
V. Equal candor in dealing with each polit-
1cal party, and equal readiness to commend
what is praiseworthy or to rebuke what is
blamable in Democrat or Republican,.
VI. Absolute independence of partisan Or
Democratic principles. THE SUN believes
that the government which the Constitution
gives us is good one to keep. Its notion
of duty is to resist to its utmost power the
efforts of men in the Republican party. to set
up another form of government in place of
that which exists. The year 1881 and the
decide this supremacy important contest.
The SUN believes that the victory will be with
the people as against the Rings for monopoly,
the Rings for plumber, and the Rings for impe-
rial power.

SURELY the world moves. A bill has
been introduced into the New York leg
islature which provides thattwenty lashes
be laid on the bare back of wife beaten.
This is q move IN the right direction.
The bill should pass. The TRANSCRIPT,
it seems, has again touched the popular
pulse IN its advocacy of the establishment
of the whipping post. We must have it.
The world is full of men who
would much rather be sent to Jail than be
publicly aogged. The Jail brings no dis.
grace in the eyes of many men. But in
the estimation Of these same men, to be
publicly fogged would be most disgrace
full aud humiliating. Furthermore, it
would be severer punishment to them
much severer. And better yet, it would
be vastly more economical to the state
than falling them. BY all means the
whipping post should be reset. We trust
that our contemporaries will take hold OF
this subject, and help the cause along.
