H. THE entirely new, very light
-<II draught, and superb Freight and
Passenger Steamer, SIOUX CITY, BAKER,
has commenced running as a regular Packet to
the above and all intermediate points, continu
ing in the trade during the season.
The Sioux City, as her name implies, was
built expressly for Sioux City Packet, under
the especial supervision of Captain Baker, who,
in her construction, has spared neither trouble
nor expense to make her an A, No. Missouri
River Steamer, and one in all respects most adj
mirably adapted to the wants of the River. She
will be found, as regards capacity for business,
as well as the superiority Of her passenger ac-
commodations, inferior to no boat in the trades
and as such, Capt. Baker takes much pleasure
in presenting her to the favorable consideration
ofhis old friends aRd acquaintances, and the
public generally, hoping to receive at their
hands a continuance Of that generous patronage
for which he is indebted during series of years,
while in command Of different boats in the river.
Shippers may rely upon having their freight
handled with the greatest care and dispatch;
and passengers are assured, in travelling upon
the Sioux City, Of being made to feel always
quite at home. may 8, So.

EARLY PLAvTs.-A very cotfyenient meth
cd Of starting early corn, sugar cane, cabbage,
tomatoes, eucunbers, aud indeed almost any
kind of plants, is the following:
Take an under sod, tnot too grassy,) or te-
naceous riuck and cut il into cubes, say two
inches each way. Insert cne or more seeds in
the center Of each, and then pack he pieces
closely together and firmly down upon box
Of earth, to be kept moderately moist. This
box can DC set in the cellar on frosty days and
nights, and be carried out into the sun al other
times. When the seeds are up ard trans
planting out is admissible, take up he cubes
and transplant them TO the open ground
This can be done without disturbing The roots,
or scarcely retarding the growth of The yoang
plants.
Seeds of cncutnbers, melons. tomatoes, &c,
are sometimes planted in soil placed IN old or
cheap baskets, with rather open work. These
are hung up out of the way of frost, being ex-
posed to the Gun during tie day. AZ the prop
er time these baskets are simply inlbedded in
the bill even with the s6rface, aud left fhere.
Tue roots will End their way ont into tho soil
through the open work Of the sides. 4 few
hills thus started, with little trouble, will often
produce crop some weeks in advance of those
