Kansas.

The Herald of Freedom speaks very scnsi-
bly, in recent number on the subject Of what
kind of aid will be wanted in Kansas next
spring. And probably if tho assistance pro-
posed to be gwen 10y the several States, sho'd
take the shape Of loan, which would he
employed in giving profitable employment to
the many persons who will emigate thither
next season, but who will create demand
for the articles mentioned in the following
extract, it woud be the wseet course. The
Herald Of Freedom, in this conviction, makes
the following suggestions:
eve shall be enabled 20 get through the
winter with the present aid, but in the spring,
when the river opens, and emigration comes
pouring in upon us, something must be done
towards provi ling suitable employment for
the new corners, as well as for the old settlers
Building material will be in demand, house,
hold furniture, and all the varied articles
necessary for the making IF new home in
new country, will be wanted.
At present we are dependent upon Nilsson
ri for our supplies Of most things necessary
for the use and comfort Of our population -
Sash, furniture, cabinet work of all kinds,
have all TO be purchased at st. Louis, or the
border cities at exorliitant rates. Now, what
WE want is the erection ut Lawrence and 9th
er central points, of large buildings, provided
with steam power and suitable machinery, to
be used for manufacturing furniture, doors,
turning, planning, cabinet work, and ali kinds
Of mechanical busine s in which machinery is
required.
The investment Of capital in enterprises Of
this description, and the establishment Of fac
torirs in the most central points in the Terri
tory, will materially aid Kansas, and help
her citizens. by affording them employment,
keeping the money o! the Territory circua-
ting within Its borders. and will pay hand
somely for the capital invested.
If capitalists wish TO aid Kansas, they can
do it in no better way than in carrying out
our suggestion. We have the stone for build
ing purpo es, the coal for fuel, and iron orc
in abundance, so that all we need is the skill
and capital tn turn them into use.
This kind of aid would also do moro to-
wards securing Kansas as free State than
any other course, a. we defy slavery to exist
where there is free labor, and free express

rHE cBINEsE 81" SUGAR u ;JIis CANE: s.Si :''''

II. r., WAsBisoTos, Dec. ~. lH56.
EDITOR REGIsTER:-Thc most valuable
apparently of all the seeds introduced into
this country from abroad by the Patent Office,
is the Chinese Sugar Cane; and il seems des-
tined to produce the most unexpected results.
1t is plant Of Chinese origin, but having
been successfully tested in France and South
ern Africa, Mr.. d. j. Browne, the head OF
the Seed Department of the Patent Office,
determined in 1852 to attempt its culture in
the United States The result was eminent
ly successful. In every locality where it was
planted last year, from South Carolina to
even as far North as Minnesota, it has reali-
zed the most sanguinc expectations; and in
two years it will undoubtedly become one of
our standard and staple crops. And the ex-
pectation of the Commissioner of Patents
that it will be surpassed in value to the coun-
try only by the Cotton and Wheat crop, bids
fair to be realized.
It's pecuiarities are as follows: 1t is culti-
vated like corn, and can be raised wherever
that crop will mature. 1t partakes, by the
wa 80 much of the same characteristics
that it must not be planted in the vicinity Of
a corn field or it will ass,mlate to it, like
melons planted close to less palatable vines.
The Stalk, when nearly inatured arc filled
with rich, saccharne juice, easily converti-
bic into sugar or molasses, and yielding very
largely-parts of it will dye wool and silk
permanent red or pink-and the entire plant
ia dcvoured with avidity by horses, cattle,
sheep and swine. With ordinary cultivation.
it is said that it will produce seven tons Of
fodder to the a re. realizing two crops from
the same roots in ore seasonI
shall have n few dozen papers of these
seeds to distribute in my District this winter
only however about half dozen papers to
each County, the high price of the seed and
the small supply yet attainable preventing
the Patent Office from distributing it more
profuscly over the country. Anxious to place
them in the hands of those who will take
pains to raise the crop, gather the seed, and
in turn distribute Co their neighbors, Irequest
all such to drop me a line to that effect, and
| will send them paper each with pleasure,
as long as my supply holds out. Mr.. Browne
states that the crop of seed is very great
the product Of an hundred hills being suffi-
cient to plant thirty acres the succeeding
year. Yours truly,
