RESISTING TIE q. s. AUrHoRITIks-The Buckeyes
have made themselves notorious for resisting the
United States authorities in slave cases. But here
is case of dollars and cents in which they have
been playing the same game. On application of
council, Judge Mclean last week issued writs Of
attachment against N. P. Curtis, dry goods dealer
OF Hamilton, Ohio, who, being 10 failing cireum.
stances. undertook, il is alegedlto dispose of bis
goods in manner unsatisfactory to his Eastern
creditors. The U. s. marshals, in attempting to
take possession Of Curtis goods. were driven of by
several citizens. Writs were then issued for the
arrest Of the principal parties who resisted the o.
s. authorities. :

SUGGESTION TO SLAVE 0wyERs.-A to-
bacconist of this city gives IL his opinion that
the owners of such slaves as are usually employed
in factories, would get better hire for their SER
wants if they were to keep them 1T hoae until the
middle Of February or frst Of March, and gives as
q reason. that but few factories will commence
operations before spring, and that the manufactu-
rers would have an opportunity to get their hnan-
ces Strengthened, and know what they would be
able to do for the remainder of the year. If the
hiring 10 commenced on the LIST of January next
as heretofore, many Of the manufacturers viii not
be prepared to commence operations, and must
then decline hiring, unless at low prices. From
present indications, servants will hire for mach
less the coming year than the present.

ARTIFICIAL FISH BREEDING CONNECTIONS -salton
stall Lake, beautiful sheet OF water, lying near
East Haven, Ct, is about to be made the spot for
the trial OF some interesting experiments in fsh
breeding. 1t IL about four miles long and one
wide. The Hartford Times says: va
Carl Muller, formerly resident of Saxony. but
now OF New York, has, in company with two or
three others, purchased the right of fishing In this
lake; the Legislature at its last session
an act which effectually protects them in these
rights. In pursuance Of the design. Mr. Muller
has been to Lake Ontario and Lake Michigan from
which region he has just returned with some Fl ye
millions OF the eggs of the lake trout The bust.
ness OF depositing or planting these eggs in Sal
tonstall Lake was done yesterday, Nov. II, 1857
under the supervision of Mr.. Muller These eggs
when collected, filled the space of half barrel
Before putting them in the water in case it is the
bed of stream, sort of bed is prepared for their
reception, by placing upon the bottom stones and
gravel, In such way rs to save the eggs from be-
ing washed away. and perhaps, also, fn measure
to protect them from the rapacity of pckerel and
other hsh The eggs were placed in different posi-
tions, chiefly near the western shore, which i.
rocky and abrupt, and in water of two to four feet
deep. They are expected to hatch next March.
The fsh multiply with great rapidity, and sx-
cellent fishing is anticipated in the course of two
or three years time. Mr.. Muller, who has had ex-
perience In these matters at home, in GERMANY. ia
very confident Of the entire success of the project
He regards SalstOntall Lake as the best lake for
the purpose that he has yet met with. In addition
to the eggs of the lake trout. which have TINS
been bedded in this beautiful sheet of water. an.
other million-of eggs from the well known white
fish Of Lake Michigan, were also put there.
These fish eggs, particularly those of the lake
trout, are worth examining. They are about as
large as "Double B" shot, and are obtained aIrea.
dy in an impregnated state. The difference be-
tween these. which are inpregnated with the milt
of the male fish. and those which are not is clear,
iy seen by the eye; the former are quite transIu-
cent, and have darker coored spot in the centre,
which is the germ of the embryo fish. The unim,
pregnatsd eggs are opaque and milk y-looking.
Eggs of other fish are to be procured and placed
in the lake. Among them, we understand, are
those Of the tongue. or large gray trout of the
lakes Of Maine, which sometimes attain a weight
forty pounds. 1t is thought to be distinct spe-
ciss.
