The New Haven Register says:

The New Haven Register says:
.sThe emancipation of 'Dred Scott and family, the
Missouri slaves by DR. Chafce, the backepublican
Der of Congress from Massachusetts, should be credited to
the editor of the Springfield Argus rather than to the
doctor for it is hard to understand why much money
should have been spent in the effort to keep Dred Scott
and his children in slavery if the intention was to bcr
ate them The for their emancipation must there
fore be found in the persistent dngng which the Argus
has maintained in the Chaee family until they have felt
compelled TO pay respect to public opinion and let
poor Dred and his people go.

SUGAR CavE-NEw Plan OF EXTRACTING THE
JUIcE.-H. G.. Buckley of Kalamazoo, Mich, has
made asuceessful experiment upon new plan Of ex-
tracing Chinese juice, and recommends it to
Others as il saves the cost of crushing MILL and en-
abes parties provided with ordinary farm implements
to make fun supply of srup for family use at very
little expense The plan to cut the canes in straw
cutting machine and then steam them until quite soft
and press out the juice in common cider press, and
then proceed with the evaporation as with maple sap.
Boiling the cut canes will where conven-
fences for steaming exist though steam is preferable
and any ingenious make steamer out of n
cask, an old gun-bare, common kettle with a
wooden lid cemented fight with clay and cow.dung
mixed into paste. But after all, if the steaming
process should prove more economical than grinding
the green stalks it will be found preferable to erect
works designed for the purpose especially. Mr.. Bulk
lev says that he found the stalks dry enough TO burn,
in small cider press while they hot and made
81 gallons OF good sirup by the work OF two men aud
a boy in two half days.

How MUCH PER AcRE.-IIow TO ESTIMATE CROPS.
"A friend communicates the following method OF ma
king an estimate of the yield per acre OF growing
crop of wheat rye oats barley, which he says has
been found correct in England. As it seems easy OF
application, and approximately correct, we give the
plan; and hope ii win be tried at the next harvest
time.
Frame together four light sticks, measuring
exactly foot square inside, and with ms IN
hand walk into the field and select spot of fair aver
age yield and lower the frame square over as many
heads as it will incose, and shell out the heads thus
enclosed carefully and weigh the grain. 1t is fair to
presume that the product will be the 43j6Oth part Of
an acre produce TO prove it, 90 through the field
and make ten or twenty similar calculations and esti-
mate by the of the whole number of results 1t
will certainly enable farmer TO make closer cacu.
laon of what his field will produce than he can do by
guessing.

The features of tn, Stock market are much the same
as those of the close of last week although the heavy
decline of the afternoon of Saturday in ILL
stances partially recovered. The transactions at the
morning Board quite moderate prices showing
no important change. The commission brokers con-
nued complain Of the great dulness OF business,
both the speculative and investment orders from out
siders being unusually light Neither the bun or the
bear party exhibited much disposition to make time
operations while tie ease in the money market renders
il unnecessary put cash stock upon the market
cepting to meet tn. demand. In Western Railroad
shares the market quite heavy in consequence OF the
doubt hanging over their dividends, and some of them
are undoubtedly oppressed considerably below their
intrinsic value. The revival of business which
must inevitably come within twelve months,
will no doubt produc, marked advance in stocks
on the list now -unluly depressed. At the Second
Board the market vas very dull but closed steady.
After the Board there was disposition TO operate to
any extent In Bono sales there more animation,
and prices generally we're well sustained.

To ihe Editor Of Tie " y. Tribune
SIR: ! cut the above slip from The TRIBUNE OF
Dec. 81. On reading it, l called witness to the
stand-my mother--who, though verging toward four
score years has eye still undimned and natural
force but little abated. She is granddaughter OF Col
Jedediah Elderkin, who, with his compeer Col.
Elphalet Dyer, were prominent lawyers at Windham,
Conn during most of the last half of the eighteenth
century Col Elderkn took a great interest in the
manufacture of silk. lie had farm few miles
from Wmdham, where he grew the mulberry, and
had quite an extensive cocoonery. He procured a
loom and weaver from Europe, and my mother
distinctly remembers seeing pieces OF silk made more
than sixty years ago. Col Elderkn had the silk made
into dresses for his daughters. Silk handkerchiefs
were made in considerable numbers.
From causes not now known 10 me, the manufac-
ure discontinued; but 10 this day silk thread IL
made, think, at Mansfield in Connecticut. l was
myself AT the house ofm maternal grandfather at
Nindham, twenty -hve years ago, and then examined
many of the papers of Col Ederkin and selected out
portions of his correspondence with different persons
in reference 10 the silk culture and manufacture In
my removal from New-York the papers have been
misaid, but the subject interested me at the time,
and the article from Tie Hartford Times brought it
again wildly Ia my recollection. IL is greatly 10 be
hoped that this enterprise of Mr.. kohn may be
cessful. fhe may not claim the honor of having
woven the first web, he may still have claim to the
greater honor of being the first successful pioneer in
~ enterprise which may in some degree relieve us
from our dependence on the silk-looms of Europe.
Very truly yc1r friend

The business of the Clearing House to-day was
sl3, i97 so.
The applications to-day for the new Treasury Notes
reach about 100000 of which for $2jO,oOO is by
the Bank of the Republic. The applications for these
notes are not so numerous was anticipated. IL may
be iha, will be necessary to slightly advance the
rate of interest There is good reason why the ma
ton, when it becomes borrower, should not pay
liberal price for money. Another objection to these
notes that the interest is not payable until the re-
dempton of the note.
The figures of the Bank Statement arc quite rs fav-
orable could be expected especially in the specie
reserve after the large shipment of last week. The
moderate increase of the line of loans, when the
Banks are willing To expand their discounts upon first
class paper shows how gradual is the recuperation in
business under the impulse Of the holiday season.
The decrease of deposits is due well the loss of
specie, to the foreign drain of the week The falling
off in specie of only $sl5,O0O after the shipment of
nearly $2,700O00 shows that the interior is still pay
ing up and forifyng our Bank vaults. To this must
be added two millions by the arrival yesterday
from Aspinwal.

dition of the Banks December l9 and 2j:
