REsUMPTIoN.-Resump ption went into effect
on tho lst inst. The fatists, and many who
were not 6atists, anticipated this event with
much apprehension. The Greenbackers looked
for ntter ruin TO follow resumption. 1t now re-
mains to be developed what the ultimate result
will be- II their forebodngs are fulfilled, i. will
give the Greenback party tremendous impetus
in next Falls elections; but if prosperity and
good times eDsne, it will be the death-knell of
Greenbaekism. At the outset, all indications
are against the predictions of the fiatists, and,
in fact, contrary TO the expectation of almost
everybody. Instead of rush to get gold, and
a withdrawal of greeEbacks from circulation,
there was a larger amount Of gold deposited than
drawn out, and large amounts of gold were of
fered in exchange for greenbaeks. Gold certii-
Gates for large amounts were exchanged for
greenbacks, and persons to whom payments Of
interst Oh bonds were due, requested greenbacks
in preference to gold. An unprecedented amount
of 4 per cent. bonds were taken, and the great
est confidence and good feeling prevailed. If it
continues as it started ont, there will be large
imitation instead of contraction of circulation,
money will become plentiful, and there will he a
revival of business, in which gold will be as
common as greenbacks, and greenbacks worth
ms much as gold.

MAJOR ANDRE.-A heated discussion is now
going on through the New York papers, arising
out of the proposition to erect a monument to
the memory of Major Andre. Leaving ont Of
question the taste of Americans building mon
ument to British spy, romantic and melan
choly as his fate may have been, it would be
we'll first to ascertain whether Major Andre is
dead. Is he dead' This question seems never
TO have been doubted or disputed; but it will
do to think Of. It is extremely doubtful wheth-
er Major Andre is dead. We might cite numerous
instances to show that there is reason for doubt
1t was once supposed that William Morgan W as
drowned by the MasoDs in Niagara River, and
his dead body was recovered. But it has since
been conclusively proven that Morgan is alive.
and living in half dozen remote places Wilkes
Booth, after assassinating Lincoln, shot, kill
ed, and buried, and portion of the vertebra Of his
neck is on exhibition in the Medical Museum at
Washington. Yet it has been proven tia.
Booth is not dead, but is living in Europe and
in Oregon. Stonewall jackson was killed by
the Union forces, near Fredericksburg; but it is
now proven, on undisputable authority, that he
was killed by his own soldiers, by mistake, and
afterwards died of pneumonia In fact, it will
soon be established that he is not dead. Then,
it is important to ascertain whether Major An
DIRE is dead, before raising a monument to his
memory.

1t has always been aim to keep the Weekly Ga
-ee in the forefront journalism and those who have
been constant readers will bear witness that
the Improvement has been steady from year to year.
All promises in this regard have been conscientiousy
fulfilled. We have, however by of the
size of the paper, been cramped for room, and
have not been able to give the reading matter in
quantity variety tha: desired, although the pa
per has, with these disadvantages, been fully equal
to the best Of its rivals This difficulty we have
decided TO overcome. When We issued our prospec-
tus for lSS S79 and fixed the prices the basis was an
eight page paper of forty-eight columns. We have
now concluded to enlarge the Weekiy Ga-ee ONE HALF
and further decided to make change ia the redpced
prices The latter will remain as heretofore announc-
ed. We shall hereafter, therefore, print freire in
stead of an eight page paper. furnishing serenyt,ro
columns instead of fortyegLt adding ffyp per cent to
the value of the paper without any increase in its
cost to readers. thus making the Teekly Gazette in
comparably the largest, and, claim, the best
weekly secular paper Published anywhere in the
United States.
This is bold movement, and an expensive advance
but we have fully counted the cost, and shall go
through with it, relying upon increased circulation
for reimbursement. Our readers will appreciate the
expense when they that TO the of white paper
alone it adds 50 per cent. 1t will also in
creased outlay in postage of 50 per cent To ali this
is to be added the additional labor in the Office.
We have contracted for new machinery by which
expect to be able place the additional four
in their proper order, cutting the margins and pasng
the Sheets that the whole will be convenient for
handling bound volume of that number of pages.
Thus with the incoming of resumption the Weekly
Gazette will start of with full increase of 50 per cent
in vaue to every subscriber without any increase in
the rates. already reduced compared with last year.

NoEru kANsAN.-This Hiawaiha pa:,er has
taken another gasp of life, (brief though it is
destined tn ie,) and now appears as a red hot
Democratic ani rip-sao-tins Gre.nblck paper,
under charge Of that crazy gsloot, C. B. Ellis.
lie anncnnces that, while the price Of the paper
Is - year, DO man with "Rev." tackled to his
name can have it for less than s2 so, and that he
will not even exchange with q religious paper,
unless il carries within itself . devout spirit,
quite opposed to the hypocritical style Of the
Methodists. And as for Sol. Miller's dirty sheet,
1t does not want to see any more Of it. This
poor fool thinks he is saying something smart,
in his denuncation of entire church. As for
Sol. Miller, he has not sent any of his dirty pa
pers to the Kansan, under its new lunatic asy-
lum arrangement, and Crazy Beat Ellis had to
borrow copy, to find something to denounce.
However, we shall send him copy of this is
sue, to notify him that if he will send us the So
out of which he beat us, in 155e for printing
tickets for his town of Robinson for County
Seat, we'll call il even. As Mr. John W. Ellis,
OF New York City, has not only to keep c. B.
Ellis from starving, but will have to bear the
additional burden Of paying his newspaper bills,
please request him to put in the next box that
he sends a 50 William, to pay US what you have
owed us for more than twenty years. If you
want to be blackguard, as well as a crazy dead
beat, at least pay man what you honestly owe
him, before abusing him.

torial to set relative to the Treasury difficulties

belling the cat was related, aud wound up with

he would have the language amended

thief Scrafford, and in the same column leads C. b.
Wilkinson. The double extra pnre Hiawatha
Herald, that finds much fanlt with the Chief
for speaking well of men who have not always
followed a straight path, is also fulsome in its
praises of Wilkinson. Neighbor, yank the

ever spoke half as we'll of q man who was half
as great n rascal as C. b. Wilkinson, man who
twice robbed the Government, was caught, con-

employs his freedom in denouncing the rascality
of the Republican party.
