and a very important one it is, as every teacher who has tned it must confess. Our choir, under the patronage and encouragement of our leaders, still improves. They gave a concert during the winter which was very satisfactory. Our city fathers have not been idle in their sphere. They have just cornpleted and fonvarded the necessary documents for the entry of 639 acres of land for the use and benefit of our citizens, besides having a general care for the welfare of the people here. Gates and Company's gristmill is about ready for business, having aiready ground com and chopped some wheat. Stewart and Chafh are aiso pushing their g r i s t d to completion. Bauer and Company are building machinery for the manufacture of shingles, laths, furniture, etc. Sarnuel Leigh and Co. are finishing their building and machinery for an iron foundry, making shingles, laths, etc. Our school trustees are trying to finish a school house, and, altogether, our city is kept lively and business iike. Among other things our fast day matters are not forgotten, as the first Thursday of each month comes along and the offenngs of the Saints are freely dispensed to the most needy amongst us. We have had more land surveyed for our increasing population. Some small settlements are being formed i our n neighborhood. The waters of the Iron Spnngs are being put onto a very nice patch of land and six or seven families wiil settle there the coming spnng. Winter has been very severe on our sheep. Many of the oldest and poorest have died, and the clip of wool the coming season will be rather slim. Measures are being planned and adopted for better care of our sheep hereafter, and we anticipate a great impiovement in taking care of sheep and raising wool in this country.
