THE SUN.
NEW YORK, 1882.

YNhe Sun for 1882 will make it's 18th annual
Il revolution under the present management,
shining, as always for all, big and little, mean
and gracious, contented and unhappy, Repub-
intelligent and obtuse. The Suns light is for
| mankind and womankind of every sort; but
its genial warmth Is for the good, while it pours
hot discomfort on tho blistering backs Of the
perslsteptly wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was a newspaper of a new
kind. 1t discarded many of the forms, and
multitude of the snperfluous words and phrases
OF ancient journalism. Ii undertook to report
IN q fresh, succinct unconventional way all the
news OF the world, emitting no event Of human
interest, and commenting upon affairs with tho
fearlessness of absolute Independence The
success of this experiment was The success of
The san. It effected a permanent change in
the style of American newspapers. Every i'm.
portant journal established in this country in
tho dozen years past has been modelled after
The Sun. Every important Journal already
existing has been modified and Bothered by the
force OF The Su,'s example.
Inc sun OF 1872 will be the same ontspoken,
trnth-tellrg, and Interesting newspaper.
BY liberal use OF the meaus which an
abundant prosperity affords, we shall make it
better than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting it into
readable shape, and measuring its importance,
not by the traditional yardstck but by its real
interest TO thc people. Distance from Printing
House Square is not the first consideration
with Tho Sun. Whenever anything happens
worth reporting We get the particulars, wheth-
er i happens IN Brooklyn or in Bokhara. 8
In politics we have decided opinions; and are
accustomed to express Them in language that
can be understood. We say what we think
about men and events. That habit is the only
secret of Tho Suns political couse.
The Weekly Sun gathers into 8 PAGES the
pest matter OF the seven daily issues. An Ag-
reuiturai Department of unequalcd merit
iuii market reports, and a liberal proportion Of
literary, scientific, and domestic intelligence
complete The Weekly Sun, and make it the
pest newspaper for the farmers household
that was ever printed.
