THE WEEKLY SI 
Is prepared with great care especially for country subscri¬ 
bers. The news of the week, in every department, is con¬ 
densed for it by experienced and skillful editors, so that its 
readers will be able to learn in a brief space of time, every 
event of importance that hasjiappeued irf any part of the 
globe. A selection from the most interesting editorial arti¬ 
cles of The Daily Sun will form one of its constant fea¬ 
tures, while the most instructive and entertaining miscella¬ 
ny will also occupy a large portion of its columns. 
The features and fluctuations of the markets of cattle, 
produce, and general merchandise, will be accurately and 
carefully exhibited in our columns ; and while The Weekly 
Sun is tlius especially adapted to fill a place occupied by no 
other of our journals as a 
General Family Newspaper, 
it will also furnish accurate and fresh reports of all matters 
of importance to 
THE AGRICULTURIST AND GARDENER. 
This department is under the supervision of Andrew S. 
Fuller, who will not only write ou the subjects in question, 
but will also attend the meetings of the Farmers’ Club, and 
will daguerreotype their proceedings for tiie benefit of our 
subscribers. We shall also be glad to receive and print in 
this department of The Sun the results of the practical ex¬ 
perience of our readers in agriculture and horticulture. 
Communications on these topics may be addressed to the 
Agricultural Editor of The Sun, New York City. 
A Ijiberal Offer. 
We have received the following note from Mr. Fuller, 
which speaks for itself: 
To the Publisher of The Sun. 
Sir : One of the great pleasures of an editor is in knowing 
that his labors are appreciated by ills readers. 
As I itave taken editorial charge of the Agricultural aud 
Horticultural Department of The Sun, I am desirous of 
ascertaining how many of its readers take a special interest 
in these subjects. 
For the purpose of obtaining the desired information, I 
make the following proposition: 
To every subscriber to The Weekly or Semi-Weekly 
Sun, who shall send in his name, with the full subscription 
price, before the 1st of May next, I will forward by mail 
carefully packed, and postage paid, six root cuttings eacli of 
the Wilson’s Early and Kittatinny blackberry, or two good 
vines of the Concord grape. The one-year old plants of 
these new and most excellent blackberries are now being 
sold by our nurserymen at prices ranging from $4 to $9 per 
dozen : and the cuttings which I offer will make equally as 
good plants the first season, besides affording stock for their 
further propagation. 
I do not offer these cuttings or vines as a premium, but 
having a quantity on hand, which I know to he genuine, I 
tender them to the agricultural readers of the Weekly and 
Semi-Weekly Sun. as an earnest of my good will, and tiie 
pleasant relations which I hope to establish with them. 
A. S. FULLER. 
The price of The Weekly Sun is fixed at 
ONE DOLLAR A YEAR, 
and while it is offered at this low rate, our friends will bear 
in mind that it is only by a very large subscription list that 
we can be enabled to derive from it anything like a fair 
compensation for the trouble and expense involved in its 
publication. It is true that it is printed upon a sheet of more 
convenient form and dimensions than most of the other 
general weekly newspapers of this city; but the very con¬ 
densation and point which give it value, and make Its con¬ 
tents so quickly and easily accessible to every reader, are 
gained by unusual care and labor on the part of its editors. 
It is comparatively easy to fill a big blanket paper up with 
long and uninteresting articles; the work of condensation 
requires labor, talent, and continual watchfulness. 
Twenty copies of The Weekly Sun will he mailed to 
one address for $17, and fifty copies for $37.50, invariably 
in advance. Address THE SUN, New York City. 
THE SEMI-WEEKLY SUN 
Will be of the same size and general character as The 
Weekly, hut will have space for a greater variety of mis¬ 
cellaneous reading, and will furnish the news to its subscri¬ 
bers with greater freshness, because it will come twice a 
week instead of once only. Its subscription price will be only 
TWO DOLLARS A YEAR, 
which is the ordinary price of a New York weekly. We 
confidently recommend this edition of The Sun to all our 
friends in the country who wish to receive their paper more 
frequently than once a week, and keep themselves more 
freshly posted with regard to the news. 
Subscriptions to TIIE SEMI-WEEKLY SUN will now he 
received ; but the first number will not he issued until The 
First Week in April, as it is entirely a new paper; the 
editions of The Sun having hitherto been Daily and Weekly 
only. 
Clubs of ten Subscribers, who have their papers sent to 
oue address, will receive The Semi-Weekly SUN on pay¬ 
ment of $18. Twenty copies will be sent to one address for 
$35 ; and fifty copies for $80, always in advance. 
Address THE SUE", 
Hew York City. 
The Weekly Sun and American Agriculturist will 
be furnished together for $2.00. 
The Semi-Weekly and Aoriculturist for $3.00. 
TRICKS tile TEA TRADE 
Disclosing all the tricks, adulterations, deceptions, and im¬ 
positions practised on “tea” drinkers. Including the 
dodges ” and modus operand! of the 
TEA COMPANIES 
which will prove interesting to all purchasers or consumers 
of tea. This article will prove profitable as well as interest¬ 
ing to many. The exposure will appear complete in Haney's 
Journal. It will he followed in subsequent numbers bv 
other exposures equally interesting and important to tiie pub¬ 
lic. In the next issue we shall also give an interesting arti¬ 
cle on the art of 
VENTRILOQUISM 
with full instructions by which persons of ordinary intelli¬ 
gence and no mai-formation of the organs of speech, may 
become Ventriloquists, and secure a source of infinite 
amusement for themselves and others. 
Haney's Journal is a handsome little monthly, beauti¬ 
fully printed on tlie.best of paper, illustrated with attractive 
pictures, and full of good reading, including valuable, instruc¬ 
tive, curious, and amusing matters of various kinds, for all 
the members of tiie household. Gaines and puzzles are given 
for tiie young folks, and all will find something of interest 
to them. 
Send now and get the whole of the present year for only 
25 cts. 
Aunt Sue, whom many of the Agriculturist readers will 
remember, is a regular contributor. Also, tiie author of tiie 
celebrated hook, “Rogues and Rogueries,” who each month 
fully exposes all the new swindles and humbugs as fast as 
they are put in operation. This department alone saves a 
mint of money to the readers of Haney's Joubnal. Tiie 
“Rich Men of the World” will be continued, and points out 
tiie successful ways of winning pecuniary success by which 
all young men may profit. 
We aim to make eacli number of Haney’s Journal ns 
good as possible, and better than any preceding one—that’s 
why subscriptions are pouring in upon us. and why (with 
the exception of thehumbuggers we show up) all are pleased 
with Haney’s Journal. And by sending now you can get 
Haney’s Journal the whole of 1868, for o'nlySSS cts. Think 
of it—a good aud handsome paper for 25 cts. a year. And, 
remember, the low price of Haney’s Journal is its least 
attraction. 
That our readers do like Haney’s Journal is shown bv 
the fact that, of tiie vast number of new subscribers received 
this year, only one expressed himself dissatisfied, and desired 
his subscription money returned in accordance with tiie offer 
made to ail such subscribers.
