As to Utah. the President says that this is the first
rebellion which has existed in our territories and
humanity itself requires that it should be put down
in such manner that it shall be the last and in order
to this it will be necessary to raise four additional
regiments :
He recommends the establishment of q Territorial
Government for Arizonia. He commends to the
friendly consideration of Congress the subject Of the
Pacific Railroad.
He calls especial attention to the Recommendation
Of the Secretary Of the Navy in favor Of the construct

RUSSIA AND OUR WHALEMEN.-The Washington
correspondent of the Baltimore Sun says:
The report that Russia has issued decree pro-
hbitng American whaling ships from entering their
waters in pursuit of their gigantic game, will pro
duce profound sensation. The interests affected by
this ukase are of national character and every way
entitled to national protection The amount Of capital
invested in the whaling business is over forty millions
If the whalemen are excluded from the bays and
islands of their Asatic and American possessions it
will destroy their business-a business which has, in
fact, been almost exclusively American from the com.
mencement, before the revolution.
