THE NEW YORKS
The Sun for 1882 will nrnke its fifteenth annual revolution under the present manaa- msut, shining, as always, 'oral!, big and little, mean and gracious, contented unci unhappy, Republican and Democratic, dppravsd «nd virtuous,intelligent and obtuse. The San's light is for mankind and womankind of every sot: but its genial warmth is for the good, while it pourshot discomfort on the blistering backs of the persistently wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was ft newspaper of anew kind. It discarded many of the forms, and a multitude of the snpeiflcus words and phrases of ancient journalism. It uuderiock to report in a fresh, succ nct, uuconvcntional way all the news of the world, omitting no event of human interest, aad commenting upon sffitirs with the fearlessness of absolute independence. The success of this experiment was the success of It effected a permanent change in the style of American newspapers. Every important journal established in tbis country in tbe dozen years past has been modeled afte. the Sun. Every important journal alrea lv existing has been modified and bettered by the forcu of The Sun's example.
The Sun of 1882 will be the same outspoken, truth-telling, and interesting newspaper. By the libeRil use of the means which an abundant prosperity afford*, we shall make it better than ever before.
We shall print all the Jews, putting It into readable shape, and raeasuiinz it« Importance, not by the traditional yardstick, but bv its real Interest to tbe people, Distance from Printing House Square is not the Srst consideration with the Sun. Whenever anything happens worth reporting we get the particulars, whether it happens in Brooklyn or In Bokhara.
In politics we have decided opinions and are accustomed to express them in langnaee that can be understood. We say whit we think about men and events. That habit is the only cretse the Sun'8 political course.
The Weekly Sun gathers into eight pages the best matter of the seven daily issues. An Agricultural Department of unequalled merit, fnll market reports, and a liberal proportion of literary, scientific, and domes-tic intelligence complete the Weexly Sun, and make it the bee newspaper for the farmer's household that was ner printed.
Who does not know and read and like the Sunday Sun, each number or whl is a Golaondaof interesting literature, with the best poetry of the day, prose, every line worth read lug, sews, humor—matter enough to fill a good died book, and infinitely more varied and entertaining than any book, big or little

The December consular reports have jtist been issued by the state i&pirlmeol, and contain matters of.gnersl interest to tbe commercial wor1!. l^rota Germany comes the assurance th.it (lie government is still as mnch prejudiced as ever against the admission of American pork into that country. A short time ago it was announced that the prohibition edict would be repealed. A mixed commission was appointed to examine into the matter and report. It arrived at tbe ctmduaion that "no cause exists to rescind tbe prohibition, which was parsed in tbe interest of the public health." The government is also waging a war Against American canned meats. On® of the leading papers says on this subject: "Pork is also shipped Jn tin cases, against which mode of putting up framings have already been published, from the fact that beef packed in cases has freequently been proven dangefous to health. It is, therefore, important to repeatedly warn the public against canned meats in genaral." Hungary also imports little or no meat of any kind, ostensibly through sanitary motives, but really through motives of political economy. Our consul at Crefeld, Germany, writes that in that portion of the country

formed for ihe purpose of checking the importation of sewing machines and other labor Baving machines from the United States, but as the American article is of a superior quality of mechanism, and is so acknowledged, snch a combination cannot prevail against it.
From Switzerland the consul at Basle writes: "It would seem apparent that a syetematic and vigorous enforcement on the part of American wheat and flour exporters to introduce into Switzerland tbe coarser, darker and cheaper grade of breadstuffa might develop satisfactory results. The Swiss people in general do not prefer white and high grades of flour, but they do insist that their bread shall be wholesome, nutritious and cheap."
The consul at Bremen deals with the emigration question, which, he Bajs, assumed gigantic proportions last year, and ia now engaging the serious attention of German economists, who estimate tbe services of each mail leaving tiL* country at $1,000 per annum. If this estimate correct the United States gained las. year in this manner abo:vt $700,000,000It is. estimated that Irust year the Rheinish Westphaliap, coal, iron, and mining district lost ov«r 39,000 peisons who came to thi& country, of whom not less than 600 operatives came from the coal mines of Westph'lia alone. No decrease is looked for during the present year. While these figures are gratifying to the United Slates, they must be very discouraging to our German cousin, who should devote more time to devising means to keep industrious 6ons at home in comfort, and less to paying low wages and devising means to keep away from them cheap American products.

POBTEK.
The sudden change of front by General Grant on -the Fitz John Porter case caused much surprise and created the impression in many minds that the judgment in this celebrated case would at last be reversed. The Grant letter was a several days' wonder, but it feemrd likely to soon be forgotten. The friends of Porter, however, had no intention to allow it to f-lip the public memory so soon. Not considering Gran't endorsement sufficient they asserted that General Garfield had changed his judgment of General Porter. As Garfield i3 dead, no denial of the aesertion was looked for, but it was foithcomins The following letter, written eighteen months ago, explains the writer's prosition in the case:
HOUSE- OP REPRESENTATIVEE, U. S., WASHINGTON, D. C., July 21,1S80. Hon. Alfred E. Ju, U. S. Contul General, Frank-fort-on-tte-Mair.:
MY DEAR SIR—Accept my thanks for your very interesting letter of the 2d inst. in reference to the Fitz John Porter case.
The facts you relate are so entirely iu accordance with my own understanding of the case that I shall be glad to make use of them in case I speak on the subject. It would add force to the case if you are willing that your name should be used, but of course I would not do this without your coaseni.
Any other memoranda you may have, or are pleased to make, will be received with thanks. The Sehofleld board liav.* recommended, and the house committee on military affairs have adopted, tha astounding proposition to pa«« a law annulling and setting aside as void the law ful sentence of a court martial executed more than sixteen years ago. Of course they thereby virtually condemn the court aud President Lincoln. It seems to me the very extreme to which party passion can go.
They will never pass the bill without such a review of history as will eiiligbten the people efresh on the most disgraceful portion of our military history.
Thanking you ajsaln for your letter, I am, very truly yours, J. A. GARFIELD.

THE ARREARS "OF PENSIONS ACT. WASHINGTON, January 19.—Senator Ingalls will take the first opportunity when he can get the floor to reply to Beck's speech against the arrears of pensions act, and to press a vote upon lagalls' resolution declaring against the repeal of that act. He has received numbers of letters from diflerent sections of country thanking him for his defense of the pensions act, and also engrossed copies of resolutions adopted by various posts of tbe Grand Arihy of the Republic, approving the position he haa taken. ?SOME CRITICISMS ON HUNT.
Bayard, in discussing Davis' bill to retire Judge Hunt, of the Supreme Court, criticised Hunt somewhat sharply for compelling Congress to retire him. Bayard said it was plain that the infusion of new blood was badly needed on the Supreme berch, and he would be glad to fie i'i that the court was iu arrears in lc8 work, s»nd public business was sufiering. He deeply regretted that an obstruction in tbe way of infusing new life into the court had to be removed by an act of Congress.
Davis, of Illinois, said the bill was not for Hunt's benefit, but for the public good that Hunt had the right to retain his place on tbe bench if he chooses.
Senator Hoar protested against this construction of Hunt's right, and endorsed what Bayard hud said. When a Judge became incapacitated from performing his duty he had no further right to his position, and he said that for himself he would saw wood the remainder of his life before he would permit his father to remain on the bench if unable to discharge his duties, or to take advantage of enforced retirement.
There has been no criticism in public heretofore because Judge Hunt did not resign, and it has been said that his family were able to support him. Therefore Senator Hoar's remark is supposed to allude to the apparent unwillingness of the Hunt family to take care of him.
COMMITTEE NOTES.
WASHINGTON, January 19.—The House Committee on Judiciary heard further and final arguments to-day on the distribution of the Geneva Award Fund.
The members of the New York tariff convention, now in the city, appeared before the House Committee JWays and Means to-day. John Jarrett, of Pittsburg, representing the Amalgamated Iron and Steel Workers, addressed ihe committee in regard to the condition of the working men in the country, aa contrasted with those in European countries. An address favoring the appointment of a.tariff commission to investigate thfe whole question, was delivered by Joseph Wharton, of Philadelphia.
THE NATIONAL BOARD OF TRADE resumed its sessions to-day. The committee on bankruptcy legislation submitted a report endorsing the Lowell bill. The di.-cussiou of that repott occupied most of the day's session. Recess was taken to allow the members to pay their respecis to the President. The President received them cordially, and expressed great satisfaction at meeting representatives of the trade and commerccsif the countiy.
HESITATeS TO SIGN.
There is gome doubt aa lo the President's signing the census deficiency bill which has been betore him fftr the past two days. The President is desirous of making the bill a law, but is restrained by a point raised in objection thereto by the first comptroller.
EEDUCING FEES.

THE STRAW BOND CASKS.
WASHINTON, Jan. 19.—In the police court, counsel for defense in the straw bond star route cases not being ready to proceed, the hearing was postponed until to-morrow.
The Ashland Fiends. CATI.ETTSBBKG, KY., Jan. 19.—-Jacob Burk was the first witness called this morning: Saw Neal shortly after the murder who first told him the murder was committed with an axe and crowbar. Mrs. Simmons and Carroll were examined: Saw three men tbe morning after the mur der, recognizcd them as Neal, Craft and Ellis they were standing very, clsse together a short distance from the cemetery which is about half a mile from the Gibbons house.
Mr. and Mrs. Compton were examined Neai called nt their house a few nights after the murder was scared and would look at the door at frequent intervals Neal was offered an overcoat when he spoke of going home but refused it, stating that it would be a bad thing to run with.
Every witness examined yet, clinches the truth of Ellis' confession. The prosecution will finish the examination of witnesses to-day. One witness testified that Robbie Gibbons haa short hair such as was found on the poll of the axe.
CATI.ETT3BCRG, Ky., Jan. 19.—The prosecution recalled Powell, owner of the Gibbons House, to prove that the murder was committed in this county, something tiny failed to do until this afternoon. The Commonwealth was delayed about an hour waiting for absent witnesses. In the meantime the defense was granted the privilege of consultation preparatory to the,examination of witnesses. Oo the arrival of two witnesses for the prosecution tbe work of finishing np proceeded. Titos. Baird, a witness, stated that Neal the prisoner, waa working for him at the Norton Iron Works, but every few minutes
would disappear and eit down in tbe dark, and remain there till be would rand for him sgain, Neal wee timid, ahnnniDg the light asd dodgiogjabont ia lh« dark places of tSe mill on tfie night of his arrest. Witness had worked with Neal some time, but never observed such coodact before.

it waB: in the* saute jjositKn the night he left home as where Ellis stated in his confession it was picked up. He recognized the crowbar, also, as theirs. During the examination of the boy, a breathless silence fell upon thp audience. The prosecution rested their case at three o'clock, and the court adjourned until 9 in the morning, to give the defense time for farther consultation. Brown, Seal's counsel, thought that by consultation he could discharge al:out two-thirds of his witnesses and expedite matters thereby. The afternoon's evidence still points to Neat's guilt Tlie Spnyten Dnjville Disaster.
NEW YORK, January, 19.—The Coroner's Jury visited the scene of the Spuyten Duyville disaster this forenoon, and Brakeman George Uelinus, who ia charged with causing the accident by his neglect, was started from the point on the railro'ad track where tbe last car of the Chicago express stood, and proceeded'to the spot, where, according to his statement, he flagged the Tarrytown train. The time he took to go that distance was abou- two minutes. The jury then boarded a train and were taken over the course of the Tarry town traia before it ran into the express. JThe jury then returned to the •Uy.
Taking testimony began this afternoon. George T. Hanfred, conductor of car Mo 6 of the train which was run into, repeated the story of the lateness of his train, etc. Witness said further that it was his impression that the stopping of the train was caused by some person not connected with it, who applied the air brakes. On being asked why he thought the t?ain was stopped by some of the passengers, he said he surmised that such was the can6 for there was a party on the train singing, smashing hats, and conducting themselves in a very disgraceful manner. They were passing around bottles of whisky, and the foundation of that accident was rum. He had not sufficient help on the train to stop such proceedings. Among the paaeengers were any number of ex-Coroners, Senators, Assemblymen snd Aldermen,and he could not deprive them of their bottle. This was an every day occurence but more especially so on Friday.
Frank Burr, engineer of the Tarry town train, testified tbat he had passed 350 feet out of the cut before he saw Melinus, his train running: at a speed of twenty miles an hour. The brakeman he saw w?.s standing about thirty-five feet from the rear of his train. There was one signal in the cut, but in the cut the engineer could not see a signal over fifty feet away. Had he seen the brakemau as he emerged from the cut. he could have stopped his train in time. He was on the right side of his engine and on a curve the smoke stack and sand box interfered with his view. _v«

Garfield on Fitz John Porter' CINCINNATI, Jan. 19.—General Jacob D. Cox has furnished the following answer to his Fitz John Porter letter, for publication:
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, WASHINGTON, D. C-, Feb. 18, 1^80. My Dear Cox:—In our twenty-five years of acquaintance and friendship you have never done a greater service to the truth than giving me so valuable a help as in your letter of the 14th inst., which I have just received. *1 have boen so stung by the decision of the Schofield board that it is very hard to trust my own mind to speak of it as it appeared to ine. I have made a strong effort to separate myself from the case and to look at it intellectually as though it related only to the pieces and a chess-board and not to living men or men who had ever lived, and all my best efforts have brought me out precisely to the conclusion of your letter. Still I had not made in, the light of the new testimony, a careful strategic study of the field and not as .you have done. But how curious it is that what you say now with the new maps before you is the exact picture of the field and Porter's conduct _upon it which glowed in strong colors in the mind of the court martial seventeen years ago, and now my dear friend, I need your help still further and need it more than ever before in our acquaintance. Overwhelmed as I am with the current daily woTk of the House it is almost impossible for me to get the time to go minutely through all the mass of tbis new evidence as I ought to do. With the kindest regards, I am as ever yours.

Tl»e Vigilants at Work, SAN "FRANCISCO, Jan. 19.—A Seattle, W. T., despatch says James Sullivan and Wm. Howard were arrested here to-day on charge of the murder of Geo. R. Reynolds, a young man whom they waylayed and shot last night. The prisoners were taken before the magistrate! for prelimin-. ary examination to-day. The evidence of their guilt is the most conclusive. The feeling is intense and at the closo of the examination the Committee of Safety forced its way into the court room and, overpowering the officers, took the prisoners Sullivan and Howard short distance and hanged them. The bodies were left suspended and the crowd, numbering 400, then proceeded to the county jail and overcoming the guards anc* breaking down the doors of the cell took out Benjamin Payne, who was confined for the murder of police officer Sears. He was taken to the place where the bodies of Sullivan and Howard were suspended and hanged. The bodies were left hanging some time and then given over to the coroner.

IMPORTANT NOTICE..
THE AMEEIG1N Art Exchange
Begs leave to call the attention of the American people to its mode of business and asks the support of the art-loving public. We shall, as fast as possible, ring out in this country, in the highest style of artistic work, eveiy famous art work of the Old World, and at prices which will enable the people of moderate means to adorn their homes with the choicest art works.
As an introductory example of the quality and style of work which will be produced by us, we will take pleasure in forwarding to any applicant a- Complimentary Copy Free of the first edition of art work produced by us in America.
Visitors to the Dore Gallery, London, will remember the superb painting, occupying nearly an entire side of the splendid gallery, entitled
Of this magnificent painting—the mest important of Dore's works—a pure line steel engraving has just been completed in England. This engraving is only sold by subscription, and the price is j£6, or about $30. It is absolutely impossible to
Eecure
a copy at a less price, except through this offer. The engraving represents the Savior as he is leaving the Prsetorium, after being condemned to crucifiction. He is descending the steps leading from the judgment court. At the foot of the step* stands two burly executioners, in charge of the cr6ss which the Savior is to bear. On the right are the followers-and believers of Christ, with despair in their every look, while the mother of our Lord is an agonised and fainting attendant. In the rear and on the left are the judges and scoffers, surrounding Pontius Pilate, who are looking with fierce complacency on their work. The centrsl figure is that of Christ, as he uncomplainingly descends the steps to take up the crocs and bear it to be scene of his crucifixion. S ,Tbe work in this portion of the engraving is more perfect and beautiful than we had supposed could ever be executed. The expressions of the faces, the grouping of the figuieh' and the careful attention to detail in the drapery aBd accessories of the picture, are all carried out in perfection and with consummate skill. There is a very large number of figures in the work, and all are depicted with life-like faithfulness. Tt stands today unquestionably The Finest and Most Valuable
Engraving In Ihe HorW. The engraving of the plateB cost upward of $30,000, and no copies from it are
Bold
at a less price than $30, which, with duties and shipping added, brings the cost to Americitn purchasers to about $40 per copv.
This splendid work is the first of series of tbe prominent art works of Europe, which the AMERICAN ART EXCHAHGI: will produce in America, simultaneous with their production in the Old World, and at prices which will enable the multitude to purchase.
This first work, "Christ Leaving the Pratorium," will be used as an introductory advertisement, and a limited number will be furni&bed
FREE TO ALL APPLICANTS! It is a correct reproduction of the English plate, which sells at $30 per copy, many of which have been purchased by a number of Americans at that price, who subscribed for it through tbe English house. The American edition will be furnished in tbe same size and with tbe same attention to perfect work as characterizes the $30 copies.
Tbe object of this extraordinary offer is to bring our enterprise into immediate recognition in this country, so tbat when we announce future works the public will have had an opportunity to judge of the quality and beauty of the art work produced by the American Art Exchange.
Until the first edition is exhausted, wa will ship a perfect copy of the engraving, "Christ Leaving the Prceiorium," to any applicant. The engraving (which is a very large one) will be put up in a heavy tube, and sent by mail. The only charge will be the cost of tubing and postage, which will be 10 three-cent postage stamps. It was at first thought 20 cents would be sufficient for this charge, but lrom frequent breaking of the tubes in the mail bags it was decided to increase tbe thickness and strength of the tubes (thus making them heavier^ so that they could not be broken except case of an accident. Tbis necessitated an increase of charges for thin purpose to 30 cents, or 10 three-cent stamps.
On receipt of application we will immediately forward this superb engraving to any address in tbe United States, all charges prepaid, when ten three-cent stamps are enclosed in letter to cover postage and tube. At any time within one year we will take ck the engraving and allow a credit of $3 for it in payment for any works issued by us.
Two or more copies, each for a different person, but to the ssme address, can be forwarded at the cost of 21 cents each, as one tube can be used for several copies. Not more tban five copies will be sent to uny one address for distribution, and the name of each member of the club must be sent.
