THIS SUN FOH 1880 The Sun will deal with the events of the year l.cNi i i its owa f tsliiaj, now ir'tly well indei" stood by everybody. From .L-tnnary 1 until December 31 it will be conducted as a newspa per, written in the English lacguae.aud print ed lor the people. As a newspaper. The Sun believes in pettlnc all the news of ihe world prom pi I v. and present ing it in the most intelligible shape the shape that will enable its readers to keep well abreast of thea::e with the least uiiprnducli ve expendi ture of time. T!ir greatest mteiest to the CTC'itest number 5hat is the law eoiitroliim: its daily m.-.ke-up It. now has ;i cireulation very much larger than that of any otiier Amer:can newspaper, and en joys an income which it is at all tunes prepar ed to sp,.n, liiierally forihe benefit of its read ers. People of all conditions of life and all ways of tlii:'Kii:ir buy and read The Sun; and they all derive yatistaetioti of some sort fmm its eol uiiiiis, for thev keep on buying aud readiii it. In its comments on men and affairs. The Sun believes that the only guide of policy hoi;hl be common sense, inspired by genuine American principles and barked bv honesty ef purpose. For this reason it is. and will con tinue to be. absolutely independent of party, class, clique, iti-gnuiai ion or interst. II is lor all. but ot none. I f will couiinue to praise what is piod and reprobate what is evb. taking caie that its lan-uai:e is to the point and pi tin. be yond the pot-.sihiliiy of bei:i misunderstood. It is uuiullueiiced by motives that do not apiiear on the M.rfaoe : ir lias no opinions to sell, save those which may be had by any purchaser with two cents, it hates Injustice and rasca.il v even ni'.re than il h ites imiK-cessary words. It ab hors fr.,uds. pities f.-ols. and deplore nincom poops of every species. It will continue through out, ;he year 1-8 Mo eliastise the liist class, in struct the second, nnd tliseountenaiice the third. All honest men. with honest convictions w hether sound or mistaken, are its fiiem's And the sun makes no bones of telling the truth to its friends and about its friends and whenever occasion arises for plain speaking. These are the priucoplex unon which The Sun will be c ndm-ted (luring the year t;t cotue. The year isso will ie one iu which no patri otic American can afford to close his e j s to public affairs, it is impos sible Lt exaggerate the importance of the political events watch it has in c tore, or the necessity of resolute vigi lance on the part of every citizen who desires to preserve the Government Hint the founders gave us. The debate and actsjif Congress, the utterances of the pres.;, llfs exciting contests of the Republican and Democratic parlies, now nearly eipial ia strength throughout the coun try, the varying drfi of public sentiment, wili all hear directly and effectively upon Hie f.ven ty-fourtli Presidential election to be held in November. Four years ago next, November the willof the uaiion. as expressed at tlie polls, w;;s thwarted bv an .-ibomuiuhle coii'pii-aey. the promoters and beneficiaries, of which still hold the ofliees they stole. Will the crime of lfC(t be reiM'ated in lsn? The past decade of years opened with a corrupt. e?iravgaiit. and insol ent Administration intrenched at Washington. The Sun did something toward dislodging the gang and bivaking its power. The same men are uow intriguing to restore their leader and themselves to places Ironi which they wero driven by the indignation of the eoi!e. Will they succeed? The coming year will bring tlie answers to these momentous questions. The Sun w ill be on hand to chronicl'e the facts as they are developed, and to exhibit them clearly and fearlessly iu their relations to expediency and mht.

Behold I we rotne from the home of lh rise, From Ihe hills of the South away ; We have said farewell to to the rocking woods. And tne forest-flowers of May. We tos'd to the winds one sigh of regret For the fields so fresh with bloom. But clad we fed from the South and its wees, To find iu the Weed a home. OTiiEii rxorxirs x;usixnss. There i scarcely anything more un foi t'.iii ite for a man than l.'.c als-ii;-e of loving women around hischiUhood and yotitli. Murk Kijioii had never known stieli wnn:cn, and 1 ;tl'er this fact as otn palliation tor this want oi faith in them. lie was ignorant of his irentrtc : he had been found otic .Ssnniner liioriitn on ihe sUs of the Fftandation School in Uixteisiie, ilijioii, and, as it was on the festival of t -vlark, lie had re eeived tlie n:mie of tlie si-tint and the KMiiie of his native city ami been ad.ijitinl by the institution. WhoicsoiKC foosl, stout clothing id a t'ecrnt trade had been jiven hint by (he Found. it joit. and in many ust.?eiM he v:is felt to h ive done it hon-r, fiir after o0 ye trsof emliiable citizen -iiip he was one of the eaihedrai ve.siry, s.it in the Common Council of the undent city which had adopted him and was said to be worth at least J&0,U00. I!;it there is a snores which tlie world isee little of that of the heart Hid in (hi respect Mark Kinou wtts the veriest pauper. Of the ntirsesfuid matrons who hail been anttind his ear liest yesrs he had not one tender mem ory ; none of them h:id fed tlie hunger of Ids heart, lie had no home, no mother and no sister. The school hud been a simple phtee hi whicli to cat and to sleep and to learn. Uui'ortiinulely, wlen the lad fell in love it was wilh a pretty flirt in finitely more hemlos.s than himself. Utit. Mark's love had been cruelly de ceived aud mocked, and he came out of the chagrin and sorrow wilh a con tinued belief in the general and natur al u n faith fulness of women. Popular maxims and jests confirmed him every day in his idea, and, like most Eng lishmen, havimr once avowed this as his opinion, every reiteration of his own idea was a fresh confirmation of it. But he had many friend? ftmonpr his own sex. Men jmc rally spoke of him as a crusty old bachelor, but otherwise a -well-to-do, shrewd and honarablc fellow. Chief amour? these friends was yomiflr Georjre Do wises, the child of the only companion his boyhood had ever known, and his own godson. If Mark Uipon loved any human be u.irit was Gcoi'oe Downes, though as !ie hitter grew up tomunlnxsl he jrave iini a fotil tle-al ofnnxiety. FttrGeorire ,'i-efeiaed the s.Kseiy of women, and would not credit Mark's positive as surance of their universal falseness and imworthincss. One moonlight niv;ht, as Mark was eoiiii'.i;' from a vestry meetinr, he met George in the cathedral close, nnd on his aim was a very beautiful 'jfirl. Tiie old man looked angrily and doubtful ly at the pretty face lifted to his fav orite's. Tlie bright moonbeams touch ed her loii fair curls, and made th.c white veil around them like a glory. Mark remembered just such an inno cent, lovely lave lifted l' hi.-, and he had no doubt whatever that this oirl would be just as fa be to George as pretty Fanny Maltby had been to him. George, however, -would not be ;cr-su-ided to doubt her. Then Mark of fered to pay his expenses if he would go abroad and travel for two years; but George said "he had just got a place in lJutlerlifihrs bank, and prefer red a home." The young man, inMai k's eyes, was bent upon ruining himself, and in a few weeks he celebrated his wedding with an elaborate rejoicing that roused the old man's bitterest contempt. George fully expected that he would now be ignored, and probably lose for ever tiny chances lie might have had of j.niieriling his godfather's wealth, liut jlark was unlike the generality of men in many resjets l in none more than in his behavior to the young man who had po flagrantly disregarded all his advices and entreaties. He redoubled his care over him, and watched all his movements with aooti stamly increasing interest. In fact, he did not blame George at all ; he regard ed him as one who, i:i an unfortunate hour, had fallen into the hands of a tower which was too ureal for him. lie pitied the happy bridegroom, and resolved as soon as possible to release him from the toils of the woman who had charmed aud enslaved him. In vain Georire's wife smiled upon and entertained Mark Kipoti. He visited her hoti.se, indeed, for it was necessary to watch her movements; but neither her smiles, nor songs, nor attentions moved Mark. He had gone through that delusion once, and was not to be deceived again. It was one great point iu his favor that -George had taken a house in such a situation that he could keep the young wiio under close r.tir vetliance, and he was confident that," sooner or later, he would prove her all that he believed women universally to be. Uut month aflcr month wc:itby,and George was more in love than ever. Tnere had also come to the happy home, over the way from M:;rk's,a line little boy that had been called after him, !id a blue-eyed girl, whuu not even Mark could tiud in his heart to regard as false and d ingcrons. He was even venturing to make Mrs. George Downo3 that exception said to be con tingent on every rule, when niddexily ali ins suspicions were forced into ac tive life and prominence. One day a very wet one a cioc carriage drove up to George's house, and Mrs. George, heavily cloaked and vailed, was driven away in it. "Very well, mi'ani,"' said Mar, sus piciously to himself, we hall Fee whether you confess to having been out to-day." So he went OAer to George's, played a rubber or two with his favorite, and tried in every way to induce a confes sion as to the drive in the rain; but tlie young wife would md;e no allti pi n to it. This vas on Monday. On Thursday, at the same hour, the car riage ca me aga i u y it nd G eo rge's w i fe went away in it. The next week she went out ou three -difierent occasions, and tAvicc, the weather being fine, he no ticed that 6li wore her very best satin dresjn, the rich blue brocade that had been one of her wedding suits. The a Ifi i r was begl miing fo look very black to Mark, for lie hsd rntisficd him-elf that Georg I Iecu told nothing of these chnde-i utcurrions On the next Monday ha had a eatrbge waitiirr, and when the lady went out agiiu he directed his driver to keep her well in sight. In this way he foji lowed her beyond the aristocratic pre cincts of the city, to a little house set b-tck in a gtrdeu quite in the suburbs. A verv handsome, forei''!i-lK;k;ir.r man met her at- the door, and led her with many smiles into the house. Mark sent nis carriage home, and in spile of the oo!d, patiently wailed. After an interval of two hours Mrs. Downes carriage returned, tlie same gentleman put her carefully into it, and s;iOi:mi h aVe driven at once lioitie, for when Mark passed the hou-e she was Mtliug iu her plain merino dress, at the window, nursing hi mntevike. She ran to the door and begged him to come in, but Mark was full of his dis covery, and answered gruflly, "Ask Cieorgc to come to me after dinner; 1 have s.-niol It i i: r to tell him." George heard wjiat his trod fat herhad to say. with a face halfamrry.and half incredulous. "It must have been my wife's sister," hf said. Mark laughed scornfully at sneh a defend, and, moreover, stonily assert ed that ii was Mrs. Downe, and not Mrs. I Jowiies' si.s(er, "Come up Thurs day and see for yotuvcllj Gcorg.7." "If I do. rr ulf uher. it will not le Itoi-Hiso 1 suspected my wife, but be cause I am sure to prove you wrong." Still George thought it singular that he could not, by the most :ui roil ques tioning, get from his wife any allusion to the-e Rivi-ieriotLs visits At lengih he said, "Eiunia, I will ak for Thurs day afternoon, aud we will go out to Al borough Woods and get the holly and mistletoe lor Christmas. "What do' you say?" "I can't go Thursday, George dear; 1 have so much to do." "What have you to do?" "Moie than lean tell you. I? it not near Christina0, and does that not im ply all sorts of housekeeping duties? liut I will go with you Friday, dear." Cieorgc was a little cross at the re fusal, and answered gloomily. "Xo ; he had lost the wish to iro now." Then both were silent, and the evening was not a pleasant one. All tho next day he told himself that he would not go and witch his wife Thursday; yet when the day came he v.-assitling with his godfather at tho window. At the vsual . hour the carnage arrived, and Mrs. Dow ncs, with hair as elaborate ly dressed aj'if she were going to a sLTle dinner at the Bishop's palue. ran down the steps, aud was soon driv en rapidly away. "Well, "godfather," he said, pleasant ly, "that is Emma, certainly, Mid she is very remarkably dressod ; but, for all that,'! am sure she has so; ne good reasou for what she is doing, i believe I will wait until t.he tells me.' "Don't be such a ftH.l, Geoic. Go and question your servants.' Aftera little reflection, George cross ed to his own hou-e and ring the bell. The housemaid seemed astonished at his appearance, and when lie asked where her mistress was, said she had not seen her since she iiad taken her orders for dinner. Then George went up to the "nursery. "Where is your mistress, Ami?'' . "Is she not in the parlor, sir? "You know she is not. Where did she go in the carriage?" "Indeed, sir, it is my business to mind the children ; tlie mistress knows her own tiifairs, without the likes of ine meddling in them." lie turned round impatiently, went back to Mark Itipon, and got an accurate-description of the house in which he had traced Mr. George; and in half an hour the half curious and half angry husband stopped at the pretty cottage. All was quiet about it; there was iid appearance of company; it looked almost deserted in its whit ry garden. An exceedingly lovely woman, though evidently in frail and failing health, opened the door for him, say ing, in an inquiring voice, "You want the signor, sir?" "No; I wish to see Mrs. Dow ties; she is here, I believe?" "Ah, yes; she is here. If you will please to go up one stairs. I am so weak and tired always." She pointed to the'stairs, and George went thoughtfully up them. Halfway there was a little landing and a door, and here he heard a strange musical voice, and then his wife's merry lai:gh to its observation. It net tied George ; he knocked sharply, and ltefore an an swer could be given opened the tloor nnd we:.t i:;to the room. "Old George, how provoking! What made you come, dear:" His'wife was sitting in all her brid al finery on Ids little elevated platform and Signor Sarti was putting the last touches to a very lovely portrait of he:. "I meant it for your Christmas gift, George, and you have peeped before hand. Is it not too bad?" "Indeed, it i, Emma." But Emma M-ac almost satisfied with his peeping, so proudly and lovingly did he Lake her home. -"How did you find me our, George?'-" "Oh, yoii are easy to find uur, Em ma: Of course 1 knew if yo:i went out in n carriage, that you got the carriage at Mo'.tcI's. But how do you come to know this Frenchman?? "Yon thinkall foreigners are French men, George. He is an Italian, and so is his beautiful wife, lie came from London to paint my Lord Bishop and the cathedral, and the Sigucra was so much better here that be resolved to spend the Winter in Yorkshir?, and try and make enough to Like her home to Italy in the Spring. My Lord asked me to have my picture done, and papa piid for it in rdr to surprise you. I think, George, dear, you had better not let papa know you have spoiled his surpme.' George felt more and more sorry and humiliated a he looked in the pretty, frank face, and thought how cheerful ly. after all, she had taken the fore suillment of her Christmas secret. "I will do as you say, Emma. Hag the Signor plenty of work?" "He is painting many of the princi pal ladies in tho city. The Bishop thinks very highly of him. Irvdood, I : have seen his Lordship there f.t nearly i nil my visits." George let the subject drop now as J quickly as possiblo to Emma; but bo j talked a good deal about it and in no v..-y e-iKi temper to Ins gotiiutncr. For once M irk had no excuse for his suspicions. 1 le was qui le aw ed by tho fact that he d uvd to think wrong of interviews which the Bishop had ar ranged and. honored with hii presence. He had lost faith in his own pene ti'ili.m regarding the sex, and Georgo and Emma were quietly at some pain to convince him that good and truo women are the rule, and not lite excep tion. Aud though I cannot describe exact ly how it came about, I know that th next Christmas Mark was the gayest old bachelor in llipon, and opened the festival ball at George's house with Signor Sarti's handsoino sister tho very same lady whom the Bishop him self, very yon afterward, made Mm.

In fact we took a cracking cold, which brought sore throat and severe symptoms of lerer. The good wife asserted her authority, plunged our feet into hot water, wrapped us in hot blankets, and sent our faith ful son for a bottle of AiEk's Chery Pectoral. It is a splendid medi c.jue pleasant to take, and did the job. We slept soundly through the night and awoke well the next morn ing.
