About sixty million copies of The SUN have
gone out of our establishment during the past
twelve months.
II you we're to paste end to end all the col
ums OF all THE SUNS printed and sold last
year you would get continuous strip of In
formation, common sense wisdom, sound doc
trine, and sane wit long enough. to reach
from Printing House square to the top of
Mount COperntcus in the moon, then back to
Printing House square, and then three quar-
ters Of the way back to the moon again.
But The SUN is written for the Inhabitants
OF the earth; this same strip OF intelligence
would girdle the globe twenty seven or twen-
ty.eight times.
If every buyer of copy of THE SUN during
the past year has spent only one hour over it,
and II his wife or his grandfather has spent
another hour, this newspaper in 1888 has af-
fOrded the human race thirteen thousand
years of steady reading, night and day.
1t is only by little calculations like these
that you can form any idea of the circulation
of the most popular Of American newspapers,
or of its influence on the opinions and actions
Of American men and women.
THE Sun is, and will continue to be, news
paper which-.-tells the truth without fear OF
consequences, which gets at the facts no mat
sents the news of all the world without waste
of words and in the most readable shape,
which is working with all its heart for the
cause of honest government, and which there
fore believes that the Republican party must
go. and must go In this coming year OF our
Lord, 1854. 5

the most interesting year In its history. LII

The work Of draining wet lands has
been inaugurated in Southeast Mis-

1t go on till everv Swamp In this
part of the State has been reclaimed
for cultivation. Maj. Brooks, Gov.
Crittenden's Typographical Engineer,
Is now making survey in the vicinity
of Charleston for ditch which will re-
claim large body Of valuable land.
In Cape Girardeau, New Madrid, Boil
iinger, Perry, Scott, Dunklin, Butler,
Stoddard and Wayne the people are
discovering that much Of their low
lands are susceptible Of drainage at
trifiing expense, and the question Of or
ganizing "draining districtsn is being
earnestly discussed. These lands, when
will be the most productive
in the Mississippi Valley. Lands now
deemed almost worthless, (which can
only be sold for so cents to 81 per acre,)
can be drained at a cost Of so cents per
acre, aud will then be worth SIS to $40
per acre.-New Madrid Record.

Ar a regular meeting of the Aber-

AT regular meeting of the Aber-
deem Guards on Monday night, a
committee was appointed to confer
with the Directors of the Mississippi
Exposition Association, who are also
to have meeting this week, in res
gard to the matter of arranging for
purse for a competitive military
drill Of Mississippi companies at the
Fifth Annual Fair next October. The
Directors of the Fair will not fail to
appreciate the necessity for this step
nor the importance of offering liberal
prizes 1t is we'll remembered by
the officers OF the Association whose
terms expired last year, and by the
public generally, that the military
drill at the last Fair WAS one of its
most prominent features, drawing
tie largest attendance of any day
during the week, although suffi-
Gent number of companies were not
present to fill the entries. There
are now five or six companies in the
State in perfect organization, and ii
a purse of 81, 900 is offered, requir.
ing corresponding entrance fee, it
is highly probable that it will secure
the attendance of all of them, and
thus guarantee the largest assem-
blage of visitors that Aberdeen has
ever known. The history of all the
competitive drills of recent years
demonstrates the fact that they pos,
sess as great powers of attraction as
any other exhibition, performance or
programme, and it is within the reach
of the Board of Directors to fill Alb
erdeen SO full of people during the
next Fair as to render their accom-.
mediation a question of serious ma
ture. We have little doubt that the
military display in Aberdeen last
October, as meagre and limited as it
was, has had the effect of stimulating
other cities and towns to the organ
ization Of the citizen soldiery, and
they are all ready and willing for
friendly contest for championship,
provided there is a sufficient purse
in sight to defray expenses Of the
company that is lucky enough to
win it. We hope the Directors of
the Fair will give the attention to
this subject that it merits.

COMPLAINT is made that Fousts
Shop is entitled to five delegates in
stead of four, in the Convention
called for July 2Sth. The basis OF
representation is one delegate to
every fifty Democratic votes, and
that precinct, according to the official
returns as published in the Examiner
of Nov. II, 1881, polled 1877 votes
for the Democratic candidate for
Sheriff, and 179 for General Lowry
for Governor, which entities Fousts
to four delegates as accorded to it in
the call for Convention. If these
figures are doubted the returns are
on file elsewhere and of free access
to every one. Facts and figures and
the record are more reliable than
ones memory.

An Excellent Sale Of City Bonds.

The City Council has succeeded in dis
posing of the ten thousand dollars of her
one, two and three year coupon bonds,
issued for purchase of right-of-way to
the Canton, Aberdeen and Nashville
Railroad, at 96 cents on the dollar. They
were all purchased by two of our citizens.
The bonds are seven per cents, which at
4per cent. discount is about equal to ten
per cent. interest In 1869 the city issued
her bonds for Sl25,000 to build our branch
railroad, which were also purchased
mainly by our own citizens, lat discount,
however, of fifteen and twenty per cent.
The road has been completed and in ope-
ration ever since that time, the bonds
paid off long ago and Aberdeen was saved
from absolute decay and ruin by their
Issuance and the consequent consumma-
ton of the enterprise for which they
were placed upon the market.
We regard it rs very fair sale of the
bonds, and their purchase rs the utmost
confidence in the ability and willingness
OF the city to redeem her pledges.

In my own case they have afforded me
almost instant and permanent relief. NV

speedy remedy for all kinds of aches and

and no wife or mother should he without
them if she values her peace and comfort

We understand that there is q dis

WE understand that there is dis.
position among some Of the members
of the Aberdeen Guards to change
the name of that excellent military
organization to that of The Monroe
Rifles, or The Aberdeen Rifles, or to
some other cognomen that will be
more enphonions in sound or pref
tier in name than its present title.
Now. we feel as deep concern in the
interest and welfare of that company
as any one, and enter our solemn
protest against any such proceeding.
The Aberdeen Guards have been orr
gained ever since 1875, and, con-
sequently, the company is eight or
nine years old under that name, dur
ing which time considerable reputa :
ton has been attained and it is now
favorably known throughout Mis-
sissippi and in several adjoining
States, but change of name and the
adoption of any other, after sue
cessful career of eight years, would
be an act of folly and virtual an
nouncement to all the word outside
Of our own county limits, of the dis
bandment of the Guards and the
formation of new company. What
would the Chickasaw Guards, or the
Houston Guards, or the Quapaw
Guards, or the Rock City Guards, or
the Treadway Rifles, or the Mobile
Rifles, or the Crescents, or any of
the other companies with whose
names the public has become familiar,
whether or not they have been SO
fortunate as to capture prizes at any
of the competitive drills, think Of u
proposition to change their names?
They would SIMPLY regard it as a
death warrant and would not enter
tain it for a moment. These com.
panies, under their chartered names,
have their respective histories, and
so has the Aberdeen Guards. An
active organization Of eight or nine
years, of military companies, or cor
porations or anything else, has pass
ed the critical point of existence
assuring the perpetuity of name,
individuality, and claims to popu.
lar favor and confidence, while
change obliterates all former records
and requires the same length of time
to be consumed IN regaining prestige
unadyisedly thrown away. If the
members will protect 1.-THE Aberdeen
Guards" they may rest assured that
the name Of the company will never
bring reproach upon it.

from the Fifth District have changed
the point for holding the primary
convention in that District on the

by courtesy the members from each
