The Sux Las been, is, and will continue to be independent of everybody and everything save the Truth aud its ow convictions of duty. Ttjat is the only policy hich an honest newspaper need have. Tue Sl- is the newspaper for the people. It is not for the rich man against the poor man, or fortu'u poor man agaiovt the rich man. but it seeks to do' equal justice to all interests in the community.

It is not the organ of any perion, class, sect or party. There need be no mystery about its loves and hates. It Is for the honest man against the' rogues every time. It is for the honest Democrat as against the dishonest Republican, and for the honest Republican as against the dishonest Democrat. Jt does not take its cue from the utterances of any politician or political organization.

It gives its support unreservedly when men measures are in agreement with the Constitution and ith th principles upon which this Republic as founded for the people. Whenever the Constitution and constitutional prUr- ii.IcK are violated a in the nn cjWhi a oin. spiracy of 1576, by hich a man not elected was placid fn the President's office, where he stills remains it speaks out for the right.

He accompanied Archbishop Kenrick on a visit to Rome in 1854. As an orator Bishop Foley was exceedingly kraceful and per suasive.

His last appearance in Baltimore in the performance of a duty of that kind was at the observances at the Cathedral on the death of Pope Pius oley also delivered the fu- 1 a a w- nerai discourse on Archbishop Bayiey in Baltimore.

In the court-martial case of Capt. Blair, at New. York, Monday, Gen. McMahon, for the prisoner, stated that after mature deliberation the accused withdrew his plea of "not guilty, and admitted that he had been married in Scotland, lie claimed, however, that his conduct was not unbecoming an officer, inasmuch as he believed that the Scotch marriage was illegal. The court thereupon came to a decision in secret session, but it will not be announced until received by the authorities in Wash ington.

The New Yark Times states that Capt. Blair's second wife, formerly Mrs. Gordon Granger, was constant in her attentions to him until the second day's proceedings of tne court-martiar brought out such dam aging testimony against htm. Since then she has not visiied Governor's Island, where he is confined. Her brother, however, has been a constant 'spectator every day of the trial.

Mrs. Granger has retained Gen. McMahon and Col. Sbepard to secure the aunullment of her marriage with Capt. Blair, a proceeding to which it is assumed he will not offer the slightest objection.
