—The manner of forming juries in

Radicals are considered competent to
serve as jurors in the Federal courts
of Alabama. As men are often ar
raigned in those courts for charges
that are political in their nature, it
follows that their fate is in the hands
of their political opponents. Ten out
"f twelve such jurors are men of no
character, social standing or intelli
gence. We mistake Judge Bradley’s
ideas of justice if he does not revolu
tionize the system complained of.

The Han Francisco Chronicle speaks
as follows of tho Yosemite valley.
There is a very great variety of cli
mates in California, and in many por
tions “winter lingers in the lap of
spring:”
“We had a snow storm on the 16th
of May in the valley, during which
time the surroundings could not be
seen. From two to five inches of
snow fell on tho mountains. The
next morning the snow had disap
peared and left the valley beautiful
mid sunshiny, and tlie walks and eye
ranges around were lovely. Tlie val
ley has more tourists and visitors
than can be accommodated, which
causes no little complaint and much
confusion.”

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOE 1876.
The approach of the Presidential election gives
unusual Importance to the events and develop
ments of 1875. W> shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY HUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand oopies. Its readers
are found In every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. We shall
not only endeavor to koep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve aud add to IU variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of tho day will be
found in It, condensed when unimportant, at
hill length when of moment, and always, we
trust, treated In a clear, interesting and instruct
ive mauner.
It la our aim to make the Weekly Sun the best
family newspaper in the world. It will be full of
eutertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, hut will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and dslleate taste. It will always
contain the most interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected and logibly
printed.
Tho Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature iu the W’eekly Sun, and its articles Will
always be found fresh and useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent In politics is
increasing, and the Weekly Sun is their paper
especially. It bolougs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and lor the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces the country aud threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind and the Ikshlous
are regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar s
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays the expenses of paper
and printing, we arc not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, ia tho
rate of subscription. It is not necossary to get
up a club in order to have the Weekly Sun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will got the paper, postpaid for one year.
We have no traveling agents.
