The Sun for 1832 will make Its fifteenth annual revolu¬ 
tion under the present management, shining, as always, for 
all, big and little, mean and gracious, contented and unhap¬ 
py, Republican and Democratic, depraved and virtuous, in. 
telligent and obtuse. The Stjn’s 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 hacks 
of the persistently wicked. 
The Sun of 1868 was a newspaper of anew kind. It dis¬ 
carded many of the forms, and a multitude of the super¬ 
fluous words and phrases of ancient journalism. It under¬ 
took to report in a fresh, succinct, unconventional way all 
the news of the world, omitting no event of human interest, 
and commenting upon affairs with the fearlessness of abso¬ 
lute independence. The success of this experiment was 
the success of The Sun. It effected a permanent change 
In the style of American newspapers. Every important 
journal established in this country in the dozen years past 
has been modelled after The Sun. Every important jour¬ 
nal already existing has been modified and bettered by the 
force of The Sun's example. 
The Sun of 1882 will be the same outspoken, truth-telling, 
and interesting newspaper. 
By a liberal use of the means which an abundant pros¬ 
perity 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 yard- 
stick, but by its real interest to the people. Distance from 
Printing House Square is not the first consideration with 
The Sun. Whenever anything happens worth reporting, 
we get the particulars, whether it happens in Brooklyn or 
Bokhara. 
In politics we have decided opinions, and are accustomed 
to express them in language that can he understood. We 
say what we think about men and events. That habit is the 
only secret of The Sun’s political course. 
The Weely Sun gathers into eight pages the best matter 
of the seven dally issues. An Agricultural Department of 
unequalled merit, full market reports, and a liberal propor¬ 
tion of literary, scientific, and domestic intelligence com¬ 
plete The Weekly Sun, and make it the best newspaper 
for the farmer’s household that was ever printed. 
Who does not know and read and like The Sunday Sun, 
each number of which is a Golconda of interesting litera¬ 
ture, with the best poetry of the day: prose, every line 
worth reading; news, humor—matter endugh to fill a good- 
sized book, and infinitely more varied and entertaining 
than any book, big or ittle ? 
If our idea of what a newspaper should be pleases you, 
send for the Sun. 
Our terms are as follows: 
For the daily Sun, a four-page sheet of twenty-eight col¬ 
umns the price by mail, postpaid, is 55 cents a month, or 
$6.50 a year; or, including the Sunday paper, an eight- 
page sheet of fifty-six columns, the price is 65 cents per 
month, or $7.70 a year, postage paid. 
The Sunday edition of The Sun is also furnished sepa¬

umns, is $1 a year, postage paid. For clubs of ten send
