New Process for beet Sugar. Fremnont dispatch : Messrs. J. W. Sclladt and William Ieterson of this city have applied for a patent on a new method of manufacturing cr4ide sugar and syrup from sugar beets. These two gentlemen have succeeded in rnaL - ing raw sugar which is much superior to that first made by Mr. Peterson about two months ago. They estimate that from one acre of beets of average yield sixty-five gallons of syrup can be made. The sugar they have made , even in its raw state , can be used for culinary - ary purposes , and has very little vegetable - table taste or flavor. The cost of extracting - tracting the sugar from time beets is only about a fourth of the cost of the present method. Mr. Schadt is well posted on the chemistry of sugar a maL - fng , and feels confident that the process - cess used by himself and Mr. Peterson will be a grand thing for the farmers.

IIAYAS. , Fob. 10-The public apprehension - hension and the gravity of the situation - tion on this island can hardly be over- stated. There is a coucensus of opinion - ion that a crisis is at hand. Gen. Wcy- ler has left Porto Rico for Ilavnna. It is not alone the approach of the new conmnmincler-in-chief that causes anxiety and intensifies feeling , but the general consciousness that the military , political and financial strain is too severe to last lung. . 'rime Spanish opinion is that real war is about to be made , and that in a brief campaign it will be shown that the march of the insurgents through time island could not have haupeued if the regular army had been actively handled The Cubans claim that they grow stronger in the field' and that the rebel forces are being strengthened by bands from the cast that will' balance the additional troops from Spain. 1t tyotild be vain to assert individual - dividual views as to the value of these claims. One thing is certain , the concentration - centration of the armies in the Province - ince of Iiavana promises combats of increasing importance and decisive results - sults before the end of Mardi. The excitability of the sympathizers with the insurgents about General Weyler is almost incredible. Ills eoam- ing is a nightmare to the Cuban autonomists , who anticipate relentless perseetitton and are largely , according to their ability , taking refuge in the States. SLID DOWN SIX STORIES.

STANLE'f WITH AMERICA. The Explorer Saps Brlt1 h Public Opinion Is Couming Round to Arbitration. NEW YOnx , Feb. 0.-henry M. Stan- ley. the African explore ; , now a member - ber of the British Parliament , has , written a letter to Major J. B. Pond of this city , on the Venezuelan ques- tion. In time letter Mr. Stanley says : "I amn entirely on time side of America , but I must admit that I ant not surprised - prised that time English papers backed up Salisbury. Taught by the virulent remarks of your journals , I had of course devoted much time to an- derstsud it , whereas English editors - itors were exceedingly ill infonmmed. Then there are two or three injn- dicinns remarks in Olney's dispatch whielm puts British backs up , but after reflecting it is wonderful how many have conic round to my opinion that whatever the transgressions of Olney , there is a great deal of justice in the Ameriean'demand. I feel quite sure now that it will not be long before the opinion becomes general that we were iii the wrong in refusing arbitration - tion , while the more I think of Olney's dispatch the more impressed I am that Olney could scarcely have written otherwise than he did.
