The Credit System.

Hunts Merchants Magazine says that
the only method of making money scarce,
is that which we adopt of making debt
plenty, by which money is made relatively
scarce Two-thirds of Gus currency is
debt. 1t is a mad system of kiting be-
between the banks and their customers,
and an enormous superstructure of debt is
built thereon, keeping almost every ira
der in danger of bankruptcy. There is
nothing else the matter with the business
of the country. Trading on borrowed
capital is the bane of our commerce.
OF all the wholesale merchants of New
York city, it was reported last week that
only fifteen had been able to keep above
water, and beyond the necessity of suspen.
sion, or the humiliating position of asking
for an extension. For term, at least,
the lesson will be salutary. People begin
to see the beauties of the "pay as you 60"
plan. The creditors especially are making
a bold resolve to shorten the credits of
customers. For instance, the hardware
jobbers are against long credits to custo-
mers. The prices have fallen and will
fall still lower, till they accord with the
true representative of value

Measuring Corn in the Ear.

Having gathered and safely housed his
corn, the farmer wishes to ascertain with
some degree Of certainty, what amount
Of shelled corn there may be in his pile.
There are various rules for this, all of
which are more or less serviceable. The
following we find in the Valley Farmer,
aud is one which can be easily tested If
it prove sound rule, we advise our read
ers to cut it out and keep it for reference ::
Arrange the corn in the pen or crib, SO
that it will be of equal depth throughout :;
then ascertain the length, breadth and
depth of the pile; multiply these dimen-
sions together, and their product by 81.
Then cut off one figure from the right Of
the last product, and the remainder will
be SO many bushels of shelled corn; and
the figure cut off will show how many
tenths Of bushel more.
Erampk.-Iu crib or pen of corn in
the ear, measuring ten feet long, eight
feet high, and seven feet wide there will
be 252 bushels of shelled corn. Thus 10

Further from Kansas.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. AT meeting held
at Lawrence, on the 18th ultimo, for the
purpose of considering the action of the
late Constitutional Convention, resolutions
were adopted declaring the Lecompton
constitution to be gross violation of the
expressed wishes of the people of Kansa-,
a fraud begotten of fraud, and solemuly
pledging themselves to resist to the last
all attempts to thrust it upon them, repn
dating the election proposed to be he'd
on the 2lst Of December, and suggesting
that if the Territorial Executive docs It
Immediately call special session Of the
Legislature of the Territory, Governor
Robinson should call special session Of
the State Legislature at the earliest mo
ment.
A resolution was adopted, recommend
ing the appointment of local Vigilance
Committee, and determination to sustain
the action Of that Committee T.. B.
Whitman presided, aud speeches were
made by Lane, Robinson, and others.
Several Of the pro-slavery papers Of the
Territory have taken strong grounds
against the Constitution.
ST. Louis, Dec 3.-Another meeting
of Free State men was held at Leayen-
worth, Kansas, on the 2ls. ult
Resolutions were adopted similar to
those passed at the previous meeting held
at Lawrence on the 10Th. Speeches were
made by Messrs. Vaughan, Phillips, Hutch
inson, Moore and others.
Mr.. Phillips advised the opposition to
rally around the Topeka Constitution, as
the Inqgna Ciarta of Kansas liberty.
A Vigilance Committee is being formed
throughout the Territory.
A letter to the Democrat, of this city,
dated Lawrence, November 18th, states
that Governor Walker had said be would
call special session Of the Legislature,
providing the members would sign a
pledge guaranteeing they would not go in
to general legislation.
