A Story Which May Save President
Arthur's lyOries.

1t was March 4. 1877. The plot Of
our story is laid in the United States,
which is good deal health.e place to
lay plots than Russia. Ii you do not
believe it get your life heavily insured
and try 10th countries. Pd make a bet
of two to one with your family on it if
it wasn't wicked to bet.
But to return to our story, Samuel j.
Tilden, of New York. had been elected
President of the Un ted States, but ne
was not in Washington to take his seat.
A man named Hayes came from Ohio in
his place, and took the seat the Ameri-
can people had decide belonged to
Mr.. Til en-. 1t was a piece of unadul-
terated fraud, which the school histor-
les te il the ris ng generation W S decided
by vote of eight to seven by Commits
sion selected tor the purpose.
This man Hayes is the one who drew
1900, 900, Mr.. Tilden's salary for four
years, and when he left the chair to go
home to Ohio ca ried Sl99, 999 50 of the
principal which he had saved, with a
large amount of interest He intended
to take clean $500, 900, but was forced
one morning to pay his fare in horse
car by conductor. who not only did
not know him. but refused to believe
| that such an insignificant looking person
was attempting to fill the office of Pres
ident OF the nited States. But let us
not ant 'cipate.
General U. S. Grant was the retiring
President. lmmed ately after the
Inauguration Mr.. Hayes in state of
profound ag tation and epidation, told
eneral rant he desired an important
interview with him on subject of v tai
Importance. Ready to meet any emer-
gency of grave nature, General Grant
complied
Several minutes passed before Mr.
HAYES could regain his composure.
General Grant wondered what impor-
tant Cabinet matter, what phase of our
foreign complications, what great ques-
ton o; reduc ng our debt, controlling
Wall street or rebuild nc the navy was
to be alluded to. when Mr.. Hayes trem-
blingly inquired in voice choking with
emotion: General t1ant. the President
of the United States has callers every
day from all over the Union. He has
never seen most of them before, and
never will again What do you say TO
them when you shake hands? Oh, what
topic can mention to so many? What
have you done about it.'
Hard as eneral, rant head is you
could have knocked him down with Il
rolling pin when the truth dawned upon
him. ''What do l sayp" he roared.
why, ask politely: Have you been
to the Smithsonian and if they have
they start a topic: if not. l tell them
they ought TO 60" And it was by re-
peating that question six hundred tines
week for four years that Mr.. Hayes
wore out four of his best front teeth, for
which niggardly Government has new
er made an appropriation.-Arabeu,

CLEANS rs if flecked with diamonds as
the shells move i'm close pursuit behind
the outgoing tide, the march reversing

perceptible diminution of their numbers,
and frost finds the vast population of the

degrees c., OF thereabout, comes again.
The mollusks are perhaps the most re-
markable Tor the long continuance of
this condition. The land snails during
winter close their shells with a calcare-
Gus plate or epiphragm, leaving a small
orifice for breathing, and buried in the
earth, remain in "A quiescent state for
periods of long duration. 1t is in this
condition, or Immediately after the
formation of the white epiphragm, that

In THE French Chamber of Deputies on
the 1st, Develle, Under Secretary of the
Interior, read the conclusion of the
Premier's speech on the bill for the exclu-

argument in favor of the Governments
proposition that the Count De Paris, by
recognizing the Count De Chambord,
had reaffirmed the claims of the Bour-
bons. The Republic, therefore, was
justified in taking precautions. He did
not ask wholesale expulsion of the
Princes, as such violent measure
would affect some inoffensive persons
The present measure did not threaten the
army, as it was aimed only against a sys-
TEN of appointment by virtue of royal
birth, which was derogatory to the rules of
promotion. 1t was unnecessary that the
bill should provide against the event of a
congress of the two Chambers electing the
Prince as President of the Republic, as it
simply enacted precautions, and did not
claim to place obstacles in the way of any
manifestation of the popular will. After

NEW YORK, 1888.

MORE people have read THE Sun dur
Nl ing the year just now passing than
ever before since 1t was first printed. No
other newspaper published ON this side of
the earth has been bought and read in any
year by so many men and women.
We are credibly informed that people
buy, read and like THE Sun for the follow
ing reasons, among others:
Because Its news columns present in at
tractive form and with the greatest posi-
bic accuracy whatever has interest for
humankind; the events, the deeds and
misdceds, the wisdom, the philosophy, the
notable folly, the solid sense, the improv-
ing nonsense-all the news of the busiest
world at present revolving in space.
Because people have learned that in its
| remarks concering persons and affairs THE
Sun makes practice of telling them the
exact truth to the best of its ability three
hundred and sixty-five days in the year,
before election as well as after, about the
whales as we'll as the small fish, in the face
of dissent as plainly and fearlessly as when
supported by general approval. The SUN
has absolutely no purposes to serve, save
the information of its readers and the fur
therance of the common good.
Because it is everybody's newspaper.
| No man is so humble that The SUN is in
different to his welfare and his rights. No
man is SO rich that it can allow injustice
to be done him. No man, no ASSOCIATION
of men, is powerful enough to be exempt
from the strict application OF its principles
of right and wrong.
Because in politics il has fought for
dozen years, without intermisslon and
sometimes almost alone among newspa-
/ G..lN tn1 t,,f f1,a
cent overwhelming popular verdict against
| Robesonism and for honest government.
| No matter what party is in power, The
a rock for the interests of the people
against the ambition of bosses, the en-
croachments of monopolists, and the dis
honest schemes of public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily
by our friends. One man holds that The
sun is the best religious newspaper ever
published because its Christianity Is un-
diluted with cant. Another holds that it
is the best Republican newspaper printed,
because it has already whipped half ofthe
rascals out of that party, and. .ls proceed
ing against the other half with undimin-
isled vIgor. A third believes it to be the
best magazine OF general literature in ex-
istence, because its readers miss nothing
worthy of notice that is current In the
world of thought. So every friend of THE
SUN discovers one of its many sides that
appeals with particular force TO his indi-
vidual liking.
If YOU already know THE SUN YOU will
observe that in 1888 il is n little better
than ever before. If you do not already
know THE SUM- you will find it 10 be a
mirror OF all human activity, a storehouse
of the choicest products of common sense
and imagination, a mainstay for the cause
of honest government, sentinel for gen
uine Jetfersonlan Democracy, scourgo
for wickedness OF every species, and an
uucommonly good investment for the COM
ing year.
