From January 1 until Decem ber 31, will be conducted as a newspaper, written iu the English language, and printed for the people. Asa newspaper, The Sun believes in getting all the news of the world promptly, and presenting it in the most intelligable shape—the shape that will enable its readers to keep well abreast of the age with the least unproductive expenditure of time. The greatest interest to the greatest num ber—that is, the law controlling its daily make-up. It now has a circulation much larger than any other American newspaper, and enjoys an income which is at all times prepared to spend liberally tor the benefit ol its readers. People of all condi tions of life and all ways of thinking buy and read The Sun; and they all derive satisfaction of some sort from its columns, for they keep on buying and reading it. In its comments on men and affairs, The Sun be lieves that tbe only guide of policy should be common sense, inspired by genuine American principles and backed by honesty of purpose. For the reason it is, aud will continue to bo, absolute ly independent of party, class, clique, organiza tion, or interest. It is for all, but of none. It will continue to praise what is good and reprobate what is evil, taking care that its language is to the point and plain, beyond the posibility of being misunderstood. It is uninfluenced by motives that do not. appear on the surface; it lias no opin ions to sell, save those which may be had by any purchaser for two cents. It hates injustice and rascality even more than it hates unnecessary words. It abhors frauds, pities fools, and de plores nincompoops of every species. It will con tinue throughout the year 1880 to chastise the first cliss, instruct the second, and discountenance the third. All honest men with honest convic tions, whether sound or mistaken are itc- friends. And The Sun makes no bones of telling the truth to its friends and about iis triends wl/enever occa sion arises for plain speaking. These are the principles upon which The Sun will be conducted during the year to come. The year 1880 will be one in which no patriotic American can afford to close bis eyes to public af fairs. It is impossible to exaggerate the impor tance of the political events which it lias in store, or the necessity of resolute vigilence on the part of every citizen who desires to preserve the Gov ernment that tbe founders gave us. The debates aud acts of Congress, the utterances of the press, the exciting contest of the Republican and Demo cratic parties, now nearly equal in strength throughout the country, directly and effectively upon the twenty-fourth Presidential election, to be held in November. Four years ago next Nov ember the will of the nation, as expressed at the polls, was thwarted by an abominable conspir acy, and promoters and beneficiaries of which still hold the officers they hold. Will the crime of 187f) be repeated in 1880? The past decade of years opened with a corrupt, extravagant, and insolent Administration intrenched at Washington. The Sun did something townrd dislodging the gang and breaking its power. The same men are now intriguing to restore their leader and themselves to places from whence they were driven by the indignation of the people. Will they succeed ? The coming year will bring the answer to these mo mentous questions: The Sun will be on hand to chronicle the facts as they are developed, and to exhibit them clearly and fearlessly in their rela tions to expediency and right. Thus, with a habit of philosophical good humor in looking at the minor affairs of life, and in great things a steadfast purpose to maintain the rights of the people and the principles of the Constitu tion against all aggressors, The Sun is prepared to write a truthful, instructive, aud at the same time entertaining history of 1880. Our rates of subscritions remained unchanged.

Did you over sit down, Telemackus, and contemplate for an hour or two the beauty of silence? You will appreciate its beauty and its blessing my son, as you grow older. Some time when you want to think and the bore wlio is with you wants to talk; some time when your ears have been din ned into partial paralysis by the man who always will talk to you in the railroad ear; some time when a man has been talking politics to you when he knows you hate politics; some time when he has been tel ling you all about himself or trying to find out all about yourself, then you will know my son, how beautiful is silence. How like a benison it comes to soothe your ruffled spirit, fall on your tortured soul soft ly as the twilight shadows,you love her with a love that is adoration, on the altars of your grateful heart you burn before her noise less shrine the voiceless incense of your worship. All through your life, my boy, cultivate silence. Now and then an hour of contemplation is worth a week of talk. The friend you love is all the dearer to you when you sitand hold his hand(if that be his gender, my son,) and can say noth ing to him. When you meet a stranger, my son, who can talk eleven hours a day, avoid him if you can, and don’t shoot him if you can possibly get rid of him by any lawful means. And, one parting word, Telemachns, don't talk to a man in a railroad car. He is never, at least rarely, thankful to you. llailway conversation is always tiresome, the listener has to strain his ear to hear, the speaker has to strain his voice to speak; if you speak too loud everybody can bear you; if Speak too low, you can't bear each other. Never talk to people on the train, strangers or friends, unless you have some thing to say, and then say it and close your shell. Don’t, don’t, don’t talk in the mere effort to pass away the time. You will only make the hours infinitely heav ier. Of course, circumstances and the people you meet, their habits and varying dispositions, will show you when and where to make liberal exceptions to these rules, but don’t talk. Never, never talk on the train to the man who doesn’t want to talk, and only keeps up his part of the conversation from Courtesy. Aud if you can’t tell when a man doesn’t really want to talk with you, my son, you had better get a position as teacher in some asylum fertile deaf and dumb, and learn to lose your voice entirely as fast as you can. The Reliable .Man. —The reliable man is a man of good judgement. He does not jump at conclusions. Ho is not a frivolous man. He is thoughtful. He turns over a subject in his mind and looks at it all around. Ho is not a partial or one-sided man. He sees through a thing. He is apt to he a very reticent man. lie does not have to talk a great deal. He is a moderate man not only in habits of body but also in mind. He is not a passionate man; if so by nature, he has overcome it. He is a sincere man, not a plotter or schem er. What he says may be relied on. He is a trustworthy’ man. You feel safe with your property or administration of affairs in his hands. He is a brave man,for his con clusions are logically deduced from the sure basis of truth, and he does not fear to maintain them. He is a good man, for no one can be thoroughly honest and truthful without being good. Where Painter’s Don’t Go- A printer doesn't rush to a doctor every time he is out of “sorts.” Nor to a baker when he gets out of “pi” Nor to hell when he wants the “devil. Nor to a wood-pile when ho wants a “stick." Nor to the Bible when he wants a “good rule.” Nor to a gun-shop when he wants a “scooting stick.” Nor to a cabinet shop when he wants “furniture.” Nor to a bank when he wants “quoins.” Nor to his girl when he wants to “go to press.” Nor to a lawyer when he has a “dirty case. - Nor to a butcher when he wants “fat.” Nor to an old cheese when he wants “live matter.” Nor to a pump when ho is thirsty and has five cents in his pocket. Beauty. There is something in beauty whether it dwells in the human face, in the penciled leaves of flowers, the spark ling surface of a fountain, or that aspect winch genius breathes over its statue, that makes us mourn its ruin. I should not envy that man his feelings who could see a leaf wither or a flower fall without some sentiment of regret. This interest in the beauty and frailry of things around us, is only a slight tribute of becoming grief and affection; for nature in our adversities never deserts us. She even comes more nearly to us in our sorrows, and, leading us away from the paths of dssappointment and pain into her soothing recess, allays the anguish of our bleeding hearts, binds up the wounds that have been inflicted, whispers the meek pledges of a better hope, ami, in harmony with a spirit of still holi er birth, points to that home where decay and death can never come. Peeking Into the Future.— A scientific lecturer startled l>ij audience the other evening by exclaiming: “Let us look for ward 5,000 years, and what do we see?" They thought he would say:“\Vliy, we see the same old jokes on Lent going the rounds of the press, we see Washington’s monu ment unfinished, and the Hayden trial drawing to a close; we see Halan and Courtney still wrangling over their foth coming rowing match, and Susan B. An thony trying to [ass herself off for a young girl of thirty-five years.” But he didn’t. He said lie saw some changes in moon and planets and things. Only that and noth ing more. Advice to Girls. Girls beware of tran sient young men—never suffer the ad dresses of a stranger; reccollect one good, steady farmer boy, or indutrious mehanic is worth more than all the floating trash j in the world the allurements of a human dandy jack with a gold chain around his neck,'a walking stick in his paw, some honest tailor's coat on his brainless though 1 fancy skull, can never make up the loss of j a kind father’s home, a good mother^ - counsel and the society of brothers and sisters. And their affections last- while j that of such a man is lost at the wane of I honeymoon. ’Tis true. $2.50 A YEAR. Boys Smoking. When boys are advised not to smoke on hygienic grounds, tliey laugh at the advice and speak of its givers as oid fogies. But careful experiments lately made by ft phy sician of repute, prove that the practice is very injurious. He took for his purpose thirty-eight boys, from nine to fifteen, who had been in the habit of smoking, and ex amined them closely. In twenty-seven he found obvious hurtful effects; twenty-two having various disorders of the circulation and digestion, palpitation of the heart, and more or less craving for strong drink; twelve of the boys were frequently troubled with bleeding at the noseften had disturn ed sleep; twelve had slight ulceration of the mucous membrane of the mouth, which disappeared after discontinuation of to bacco for ten or twelve days. The physi cian treated them all for weakness and nervousness, though with little avail, un til they had relinquished smoking, when health and strength were speedily restor ed. Even if it be granted that smoking is not harmful to adults, there is no doubt to its harmfulness to the young. Dr. Han king, Dr. Richardson and others, who have made a special study of the subject, all agree in declaring that it causes in them impairment of growth, nervous derange ment, and physical degragation. One of the worst effects is the provocation of an appetite for liquor, which indeed, is not confined to the young, but which grown personsare better able to manage. Where boys drink to excess,they are alinot iuvari bly smokers, and it is very rare to find a man over fond of spirits who is not addic ted to tobacco. Men who want to give up drinking usually have to give up smoking at the same time; for they say that a cigar or a pipe, generally excites a desire for liquor very hard to contol. A Lcson For Young Men. Young men, if you contemplate a busi ness career, you cannot look after your habits too carefully. Your aim in life is to be successful in all undertakings,and you can never be successful with bad hab its. Matters which seem of small amount to you now may become in future the turn ing pain in your career, either up or down as they have that of any man before you. in illustration of this we print the following anecdote, as related in one of the most prominent New York dailies: “Horace li. Wallin, the most prominent and wealthy drj goods merchant of New York, was alone in his office one afternoon when a young man, pale and careworn,, timidly knocked and entered. “Mr. Claf lin,”said he, “I have been unable to meet certain payments because parties failed to do by me as they agreed to do, and I would like to have SIO,OOO. I come to you, because you have been a friend to my fa ther, and might be a friend to me.” “Come iln,” said Claflin, “come in and have a glass of wine.” “No,” said the young man, “I don’t drink.” "Have a ci gar, then?” No—l never smoke.” “Well,” said the joker, “I would like to accommo date you, but I don’t think I can.” “Yery well,” said the young man, as he wus about to leave the room. “I thought per haps you might good day, sir. "Hold on” said Mr. Claftlin, “you don’t drink ?” “No.” Nor smoke, nor gamble, nor any thing of the kind?” “No, sir.” Well, said Mr. Claflin, with tears in his eyes, “you shall have it, and three times the amount if you wish. Your father let me have $5,0U0 once and asked me the same questions. No thanks —I owe it to you for your father’s sake.”' Marriage. —The fountain of every good government is the family. The best and most prosperous country is that which has the greatest number of happy firesides. The holiest- institution among men is marriage. It has taken the rate countlesß ages to come up to the condition of mar riage. Without it there would be no civili zation, no human advancement, no lifs worth living for. Life is a failure to any woman who has not secured the love and adoration of some great and magnificent man. Life is a mockery to any man, no matter whether he be mendicant or mon arch, who has not won the heart of some worthy woman. Without love and mar riage, all the priceless joys of this life would be as ashes on the children of men. “You had better be the emperor of one loving and tender heart, and she the em press of yours, than to be the king of the world. The man who has really won the love of one good woman in this world, it matters not though he die in the ditch a beggar, his life has been a success.” There is a heathen book which saysf “Man is strength, woman is beauty; man is courage, woman is love.” When the one man loves the one woman, and the one woman loves that one man, the very an gels leave heaven and come and sit in that house and sing for joy. A Butterfly’s Moral.— A boy, on per ceiving a beautiful butterfly, was so smit t n with its gaudy colors, that he pursued it from flower to flower with indefatigable, zeal; at first he attempted to surprise it among the leaves of a rose; then he en d< vored to cover it with his hat as it was ■ ling on a daisy; now he hoped to se cure it ns it revelled on a sprig of myrtle; and now grew sure his prize on perceiving it to loiter on a bed of violets; but fickle fly still eluded his attempts. At ob -rvingit half-buried in the cup of a tulip rushed forward, and, snatching at the ob ject of his persuit with violence, it was crushed to pieces. The dying insect, per ceiving the boy chagrined at his disap pointment, addressed him with the ut most calmness in the following words: “Bciiold, now, the end of thy unprofitable solitude: and learn, for the benefit of thy future life, that pleasure, like a painted but; fly, may serve to amuse me in the pur suit; but, if embraced with too much ar dor, will perish in thy grasp*’ A well-known Bostonian was trying a horse one doy, in company with the own er, a professional “jock.” Having driven him a mile or two, the gentleman who no ticed that he pulled pretty hard and show ed a good deal of spirit, requiring constant watching and a steady rein, said, “Do you think that is just the horse for a woman to i drive? “Well, sir,” answered the jockey, j • I must Say t! it I shouldn't want to ma> ;ry tlie woman that could drive that horse.”
