I believe if you click in a window, the third button should
scroll it. But, I think you are looking for
M-x mouse-wheel-mode

| Scrolling With "Wheeled" Mice

| Some mice have a "wheel" instead of a third button. You can usually
| click the wheel to act as either `Mouse-2' or `Mouse-3', depending on
| the setup. You can also use the wheel to scroll windows instead of
| using the scroll bar or keyboard commands. To do so, turn on Mouse
| Wheel global minor mode with the command `M-x mouse-wheel-mode' or by
| customizing the option `mouse-wheel-mode'. Support for the wheel
| depends on the system generating appropriate events for Emacs.

| `mouse-wheel-scroll-amount' determine where and by how much buffers are
| scrolled.
