To Our Readers.

After nearly one years silence we again
greet you. Last fall at the time Of the
suspension of the publication of the UNION
we expected to resume its publication early
this spring. Various circumstances COM
bined to prevent US from iss uing a paper
until the present. We commence now
with rather favorable prospects and the
full determination to make this paper a
permanent affair. To all who have sense
enough to know that paper is of great
advantage to any community, and espe.
cially young community in new coun.
try, whereeverything is undeveloped, and
whose history is in the future and but lit
tie in the past, We have word just now.
The character, size and attractvness of
this paper in the future depends entirely
upon you. If you will yield it a grud ging,
sickly, starve to death support, it will be a
runted, sickly, starved to death 'bantling,
a perfect "teat.man," and we will be COM
PEELED to devote our time to begging ad-
vertisements and dunning delinquents
But upon the other hand if erery man will
take the paper, whether we exactly agree
about everything or not, and all advertise
literally who can and should, then we can
afford to pay for good help and issue a
iarger paper and more interesting one
You can depend upon i. we are going to
publish paper here and we believe that
all sensible men win lend it a helping
hand.

1t is a matter Of regret among many of
our rational statesmen that President John.
son in dealing with the rebel states, holds
that they never were out of the Union, and
treats them accordingly. 1t would place
him in an awkward fix if he did tieat them
as having been separated from this I'm
ion. he would be President of these Uni
ted States though resident Of foreign
country.

Facts and Figures for the Farm

We publish the following exhibit of
the agricultural prosperity Of Marshall
county, during the past five years, for the
encouragement and benefit of the hopeful
and industrious, and for the shame and
discontinue Of croakers and dispondents
Let it be remembered that at the time of
taking the census in 1860, Washington
county was municipal township of Mar
shall county, and its products were made
"a part of and reported with Marshall
county; SO that in the census returns of
80 there is mo such county known as
Washington except in name and popula-
lion.
Marysville township of Marshall county
embraces just one fourth Of the area Of the
present limits of the county, and just about
one.fourth of the agricultural wealth of
the. county and outside Of the town :of
Marysville it has not developed any fast.
er than the remainder of the county.
TIE following table shows the census
returns of 1860 of Marshall county, Tim
cluding Washington and the census re-

KICK HIM OUT.-Therc is a man ~,
named George Reynolds, who, before tbs the
war resided at Junction City, in this State
and on the: breaking out of the war went in
to the rebel army. He was in that portion Of
the rebel army that captured detachmepts
of the I'd and 5th Kansas. A soldier
named Zigler, belonging to the I'd, was
among the captured and was so badly woup.
ded that he could not march fast enough
to suit Reynolds, { who held Lieuienap.
cy in the rebel army.) For this Reynolds
deliberately sho. him dead. We have this
from Lieut.. Riggs, of the 5th Kansas, who
saw the man shot. Now, this Reynolds
writes to his friends at Junction City tho.
he is coming back there to live. What
we desire is that the Junction City Union
will copy this statement and then see if
the citizens Of that place will allow this
murderer to return, with the blood of a
Kansas soldier on. bis hands. There are
several Of these detestable sneaks and
murderers crawling into Leavenworth, and
we doubt not that some Kansas soldier will
yet return and recognize each of them as
the author of diabolical murder or some
cowardly outrage too despicable TO come
from any one else. Pass this Reynolds
around, and let every Kansas man, woman
aud child avoid all such reptiles. They
have made their bed, and now let them
lie down in it.

The above are among the most import
ant products, aad we will suppose that
there is the same difference in minor mat
ters. The table does not exhibit the real
am cunt in kind owned in Marysville town
for we have excluded the city of Marys.
vile in order to show about one fourth the
agricultural wealth Of the county. In this
city there is owned over two hundred head
of work cattle and about one hundred head
of other cattle, besides horses, &c., and
there wrs not less than two hundred and
fifty tons of hay put up.
The statistics regarding products for
the year 1850, were based upon the crops
of 1859, which all will recollect was very
bountiJM year, plenty of rain having fall
en- for every purpose. The statistics re-
gsrding products for the present census,
(1665) which was completed in June last,
were based upon last years crops, which
everybody knows, was rery poor crop
season, in fact, it was considered gear
of drouth, and none could have been said
to have raised good crops. Meteorological
observations show that less rain teU in
Kansas in 1864, than did fall IN 1860, the
year of the celebrated drouth.
Now let US call Marysville township
one-ffth of Marshall and Washington
cOuuties agricuturaly, although we doubt
if it be one sixth, and then take either of
the numbers in the last colnmn above and
multiply 1t by flee and see what your prod
uct is compared with the report of 1860.
Again You will admit that this years
crop of all produce taken together, will be
at least twice as large as last years; SO,
multiply your already acquired product
with two, and how does that compared with
the croaker's assertion-"This is a good
for-nOthing country, and 1 am going to
leave it,"
There is one more important fact in con-
nection with the above, that thinkers and
statislicans will not overlook. 1t is this =
the population Of Marshall county (exclu-
sive of WashingtonO in 1860 was 2.2SO,
while the population in 1866 is less than
two hundred over that Of go. This proves
that the increase of wealth, Improvements,
&c., as shown by the table above is not SO
much the result of an influx of population
and its attending circumstances, as it is
the material development and increasing
wealth of what was and who were here In
1860. And this growth too, in the face
of old Bnchauan's 'sland sales in 1860,

THE democrats of New jersey have
nominated Gen. Runyon as their can
didate for Governor. Mr.. Dana, late
Assistant Secretary of War, says that
he is militia hero, and was within ten
miles of the battle of Bull Run. He
has made speech since his nornina-
tion, in which the following passage
occurs:
Through the war is closed, there is no
Bnch Union as we had, and there will
never be a union of hearts and interests
until democratic doctrines again pre-
vail in the national councils. The
management OF this war was in the
hands ofthOse who knew only how TO
destroys who never did anything good,
History will give those men their true
position"
Let Runyon labor on until James
Buchanan is President aguin, and
Howell Cobb, Jacob Thompson and
Isaac Toucey are cabinet minister,
Then we shall have democratic doc
trines once more prevailing in the
country, and tho nation will be safe.

Prospects of the Iron Trade.


We are glad to hear that the activity
of the iron trade still continues. Man.
ufacturers are reluctant to make con.
tracts for future delivery, and the indi-
cations are that large consumption
with high prices must rule in the ru.
ture. The iron interests of the country
promise 10 assume ii greater magnitude
than at any time heretofore. This re-
suits from two causes the large de-
mand for many descriptions of articles
of manufactured iron from interruption
by reason of the war, and the difficulty
now experienced in commanding the
desired amount of skilled labor. a
gentleman engaged in the business, who
has just returned from Europe, and
who, during his stay there, spent much
of his time with iron manufacturers
says TINT the same scarcity of skilled
workman exists i'll the trade there ms
here, and that II scale of wages hns been
established not likely soon, if ever In
come down. The migration of suc6
men to this country, tempted by the
higher prices paid here for such labor
IS n source of much annoyance to the
foreign manufacturers, and as n means
OF stopping it,. agents, it is said, have
Deeh sent 10 this country, whose mis-
sion is 10 tempt the workers i'm iron
back to Europe, as we'll for the adynn-
tage of their individual labor, as for de-
terring by tho effect of their return 9th

The way TO Look at It.

Some of the Democratic conventions
are assuming a virtue by resolving tina
national debt is a national curse. 1t
is heavy curse. So is the Democratic
party TINT brought the debt upon the
nation, the heaviest of ali curses. and
the sum of all. 1t is the Satan In our
republican Eden, introducing nulllfl-
cation, secession, war pestiIence, ia
mine, devastation, debt, taxes, hate
barbarism; i'll short, Democracy. For
this curse, generation after generation
must be ground by taxes to which our
extra toll and sweat must he added to
the price of every mans daily bread.
Let those who suffer the curse remem-
Der the cause, and abhor this origin OF
all the evil that has entered into the
