The Scientific 'American which has been published weekly for the last thirty-one years, does this, to an extent beyond any other publication ; in fact it is the only weekly paper published in the United States, devoted to Manufactures, Mechanics, Inventions and Xew Discotcrics in the, Arts aud Sciences.

NEW YORK. j , ( . ; j j I 1877 The different editions of The Sun during the next year will be the same as during the year that has just passed. The daily edi tion will on week days he a sheet of lour pages, and on Sundays a sheet of eight pa ges, or 5C broad columns, while the weekly edition will bo a sheet of eight pages of the same dimensions and character that are al ready familiar to our friends. The Sun will continue to be the strenu ous advocate of reform and retrenchment, and of the substitution of statesmanship, wisdom, and integrity for hollow pretence, imbecility, and fraud in the administration of public affairs. It will contend for the government of the people by the people aud tor the people, as opposed to government by frauds in the ballot-box and iu the count ing of votes, enforced by military violence. It will endeavor to supply its readers—a body now not far from a million ol souls— with the most careful, complete and trust worthy accounts of current events, and will employ for this purpose a numerous and carefully selected stuff of reporters and cor respondents. Its reports from Washington, especially, will be full, accurate, and fear less ; and it will continue to deserve and en joy the hatred of those who thrive by plun dering the Treasury or by usurping what the law docs not give them, while it will endeavor to merit the confidence of tho public by defending the rights of the people against the encroachments of unjustified power. The price of the daily Sun will be S3 cents a month or #<t.gO a year, post paid, or with the Sunday edition R7 70 a year. The Sunday euftion alone, eight pa-res, $l«Ou year, post paid. The \\ eekly Sun, eight pages of 56 broad columns, will lie furnished during 1877 at the rate of $1 a year, post paid. The benefit of this large reduction from the previous rate for the Weekly can be enjoyed by individual subscribers without the necessity of making up clubs. At the same time, if any of our fiiicnds choose to aid injexionding our circulation, weshali be grateful to them, and every such person who scuds us ten or more subscribers from one place will lie entitled to one copy of the paper for himself without charge. At one dollar a year, postage paid, the expenses of paper aud printing are barely repaid ; and, considering tho size of the sheet and the quality of its contents, we are confidant the people will consider The Weekly Sun the cheapest newspaper published in the world, aud we trust also one of the very best.
