The Salt Lake Daily Telegraph, February
Is, contains the annual Message OF Governor
Young to the Legislature of Utah Territory:
1t is business-like document and short and
pithy. The Governor congratulates the Legis-
lature upon the favorable circumstances which
surround the Territory declares that destltu-
tion and want are unknown; that the Territory
is not only free from debt, but public improve
ments are extensive; that Indian torays are at
an end; calls upon the parent government
to indemnify those who have suffered from the
lawlessness of the savages gives the Pacific
Railroad highly favorable notice, and touches
upon the admission of Utah as State.
The Rink on Friday evening at Cincinnati
was crowded by skaters and spectators, fully
two thousand persons being present MIR. Eu-
gene St. Clair accomplished the most arduous
task ever achieved by any person on skates IN
this country. He has skated for twenty four
consecutive hours, without rest or sleep. The
only time he ceased skating was Saturday
morning, when he had rest of twenty minutes
to change his skates and put on braces. He
commenced on Tuesday evening at 9:25, and
achieved the task of making one hundred miles

The Cultivation OF Ions
for the Month OF March.

Correspondence of the Cincinnati Chronicle.
Those who have tulip and hyacinth
buds may las the warm weather approach
es, though 1t Is not common to have
much of it in this month, begin to re-
move the protection which has been
thrown over them during the winter
This, however should not be done too
suddenly. The protection around tender
roses may also be removed by degrees
A few choice seeds may be sown for very
early flowers, This should be effected
with the assistance of bottom heat or
they may be sown in drill, i'm box,
each variety to be labeled and covered
with pane of glass.
There are two advantages attending
the seeds sown In this way. The first is,
the glass will cause more heat than if
sown in the open ground; and the next
is, when the seeds are up and in the seed
leaf (the time most likely to be injured
by the frost), the glass is some protection
and If very severe weather ensues, the
box can be removed into the house.
Again, If the seed be sown in the open
ground, the soil, Mt this season, should
not be dug more than half spade deep,
as the soil is too cold, and would rot
them. Experience will teach that when
seed Is intended to be sOwn thus early,
the ground should be stirred only with a
rake. Much benefit will result, for that
only which has received the influence of
the sun will be found congenial to the
gerimination of seeds. ,~tta f ~
Hardy roses may now be propogated
by grating the more choice kinds on the
roots of the more common. Carnations,
picotees and pinks should not be remov-
ed from their winter quarters before the
grass on the commons and fields begins
to grow, for the sharp, cutting winds this
month are dangerous to those flowers
! When the weather should become more
settled, about the last of month those in
tended to flower in pots should be shift
ed into a five iuch pot, and be top-dress-
ed, and should be exposed to gentle
showers to encourage their growth.
Dahlias may be unpacked to give them
air to prevent their rotting. Ornament
al trees and deciduous shrubs may be re.
moved or planted, as we'll as biennial
and perennial Towering plants. Borders
and edges may be made But there is a
great difference in some of our springs
as respects their earlness or lateness.
The above operations will, of course
depend much upon this. Last spring
was nearly month later than usual
This spring 1t has yet to be seen what
will ensue ON this point.
