THE SUN.
NEW YORK, 1882.

YT,he Sun for 1882 will make its 18th annual
L revolution under the present management
shining, as always, for all, big and little, mean
and gracious, contented and unhappy, Repub-
lican and Democrat, depraved and virtuous,
intelligent and obtuse The SUMS light is for
mankind and womankind of every sort; but
its genial warmth is for the good, while it pours
hot discomfort on the blistering backs of the
persistently wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was newspaper of a new
kind. 1t discarded many of the forms, and q
multitude of the superfuous words and phrases
of ancient journalism. 1t undertook to report
in fresh, succinct unconventional way all the
news of the world, omitting no event of human
interest, and commenting upon affairs with the
fearlessness of absolute independence. The
success of this experiment was the success of
The Sun. 1t effected permanent change in
the style of American newspapers. Every i'm
portant journal established in this country in
the dozen years past has been modelled after
The Sun. Every important journal already
existing has been modified and bettered by the
force of The Suns example.
The Sun of 1882 will be the same ontspOken,
truth-telling, and Interesting newspaper.
BY liberal use of the means 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 yardstick, but by its real
interest to the people. Distance from Printing
House Square is not the first consideration
with The Sum- Whenever anything happens
worth reporting We get the particulars, wheth
er it happens in Brooklyn or in Bokhara.
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 The Suns political couse.
The Weekly Sun gathers into pages the
best matter OF the seven daily issues. An Ag
ricultural Department of unequailed merit
full market reports, and liberal proportion oi
literary, scientific, and domestic intelligence
complete The Weekly Sun, and make it the
best newspaper for the farmers household
that was ever printed
Who does not know and read and like The
Sunday Sun, each number of which is a Col
conda of interesting literature, with the best
poetry OF the day, prose every line worth
reading, news humOr-matter enough to fill a
g0od-sized book, and infinitely moro varied and
entertaining than any book, big or little
If our idea of what a newspaper should be
pleases you, send for The Sun.
The terms are as fOllOws:
For the daily Sun, a 4-page sheet of % col
umn, the price by mail post puid, is SIS cents q
month, or S. so year or including the Sunday
paper, an SPACE sheet of Sc columns, the price
is 65 cents per month, or $40 year, postage
paid
