THE SUN!
NEW YORK, 1SS2.
TiiESfN forl8S2 will make Its fifteenth annual
revolution under the present management, shin
ing, as always, for ail, uig and little, mean and
gracious, contented and unhappy. Republican
and Democratic, depraved and virtuous, Intelli
gent and obtuse. Tub Bun's light is for mankind
and womankind of every sort; but its genial
warmth is for the good, while It poui'Bhot discom
fort on the blistering backs ot the persistently
wicked.
Tub Hun of 1868 was a newspaper of anew kind.
It discarded many of the forms, and a multitude
of the superfluous words and phrases of ancient
journalism. It undertook to report In a fresh,
succinct, unconventloualway all the news of the
world, omitting no event of human Interest, and
commenting upon atfairs with the fearlessness of
absolute Independence. The success of this ex
periment was the success of Tub Bun. Iteltected
a permanent change lu the style of American
newspapers. Every Important Journal established
In this country In the dozen years past bus been
modelled after Tub Bun. Every Important Jour
nal already existing has been modilted and bet
tered by the force ot Tub Sun's example.
Tub Sun of 1882 will be the sam outspoken,
truth-telling, aed Interesting newspaper.
By a liberal use of the means which an abund
ant prosperity alfords, we shall make it better
than ever before.
We shall print all the news, putting It Into read
able shape, and measuring its Importance, not by
the traditional yardstick, but by Its real interest
to the people. Distance Irom Printing House
Square Is not the flrst consideration with Tub
Bun. Whenever anything happens worth report
lug we get I he particulars, whether it happens iu
Brooklyn or In Bokhara.
Iu politics we have decided opinions; and are
accustomed to express them in language iliat can
be understood. We say what we think about men
and events. That habit Is the only secret of Tub
Sun's political course.
Tub Wkbkly Bun gathers Into eight pages the
nest matter of the seveu daily issues. An Agri
cultural Department of unequalled merit, full
market reports, and a liberal proportion of litera
ry, scientific, and domestic Intelligence complete
Tub Wbbkly Hun, and make It the best newspa
per for tbo farmer' household that was ever
printed.
Who dons not know and read and like Tns
Sunday Bun, each number of which Is aGolcouda
of Interesting literature, with the best poetry of
the day, prose every Una worth reading, news,
humor matter enough to till a good-sized book,
and Infinitely more varied and entertaining than
any book, big or littler
11 your Idea of what a newspaper should be
pleases you, send for Tub Sun.
Our terms are as follows:
For the dally Bun, a four page sheet of twenty
eight columns, the price by mail, post paid, Is 55
cents a month, or $ 80 a year; or. Including the
Sunday paper, an eight page sheet of ttfty-slx col.

out to see some one, she gravely re

"if she saw the cloven foot," she turned
up her pretty nose and said : "No, but I
smell the clove In breath."
J"Two Irishmen were pouring over

going down bill In their morals of late.
On Bunday one of the legion who bas
always been noted for his respectful
demeanor toward the great public, ob.
served an old citizen yawnltrg and gap
ing on a street corner, and said to him :
"Better not open your mouth too wide."
"Why?" was the surprised query.
" There's a law against opening drink

IKTA young gentleman, who Is very
particular about the gettlng-up of his
linen, wrote a note to his laundress, and
at the same time sent one to the object
of his aflectious. Unfortunately be put
the wrong address on the envelopes and
posted them. The Woman was puzzled,
but not in the least oflended ; but when
the young lady read : "If you rumple up
my shirt bosoms and drag the button off
the collar any more, as you did last time,
I shall have to go somewhere else," she
cried all the evening, and declared she
would never speak to him again.
Understood Human Nature.
" Can I see the lady of the house?"
inquired the peddler. " Well you see her
If you ain't blind!" snapped the lady
who had answered the bell. "Oh, beg

house, then V" " Yes I am I what d'yer
take me for ? Did yer think I was the
gintleman of the bouse, or the next-door
neighbor, or one of the farm bands, or
the cat, or the lcecbist?" "I didn't
know, madam, but you might be the
youngest daughter." "Oh, did yer?
Well, that was nat'ral too," replied the
1. of the h. "What d'ye wan't, sir?"
Then the peddler displayed his wares,
and when he left that doorstep half an
hour later his face was full of pleasure
and his pockets full of money. He
understood human nature and had made
a good Hale. Boston Transcript.
Don't Mention It.
A citizen of Detroit entered a Michi
gan avenue grocery the other day and
said be wanted a private word with the
proprietor. "When they bad retired to
the desk he began :
"I want to make confession and repa
ration. Do you remember of my buying
sugar here two or three days ago ?"
"I do."
"Well, in paying for it I worked off a
counterfeit quarter on the clerk. It was
a mean trick, and I came to tender you
good money."
"Oh, don't mention it," replied the
grocer.
"But I want to make It right."
"It's all right all right We knew
who passed the quarter on ns, and that
afternoon when your wife snt down a
dollar bill and wanted a can of sardines
I gave her that bad quarter with her
change. Don't let your conscience
trouble you about that it's all right."
