The Valparaiso Republican copies our editorial,
"The Three Worlds" published in the Times of
July 1st and credits it to the Grand Rapids Times
About as bad as the mistake of one of our brethren
who for eight weeks past has persisted in sending
us three copies of his paper, one to Grand Haven,
another to Eastmanville, and the third and last to
Grand River. Rather mixed, gentlemen, we think.
Eastmanvie is the place.

CHICAGO LUMBER MARKET

CHICAGO LUMBER MARKET-July 16.
The trade has not yet fully recovered from the
depression under which it opened-the current
sales falling probably one-third below those last
year, made reduction of one or two dollars per
thousand in prices and to a considerable extent on
time. The loss in prices has fallen mainly upon
the manufacturer, the ratio between cargo and
yard prices being about the same as heretofore
During the week the better feeling which had
previously characterized the trade has gained
strength from the steady improvement in the
general prospects Of the country.
We notice sale of the cargo of the schooner
Little Belle from Grand river, containing good
share of upper qualities, at SIS; also that of the
brig Blair, an ordinary cargo but well cut up into
fencing and flooring, from Grand Haven at $l0,25,
half cash and balance in thirty days.
DETROIT, July Is.
We learn from a gentleman who has just re-
ceived advices from the central and southern

LOCAL AND MISCELLANEOUS.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES we have had charge or
the Times, although we have not been able to do
Ms well as we have wished, or could under other
circumstances, we have received large number
of commendatory notices from our brethren OF the
press Although such words are pleasing to u.s.
and by no means lost we have not heretofore
copied any of them, thinking that such course
smacks too much of egotism, especially If perse-
yered In from week to week. The old adage is
true which says selfprase is in effect dispraise'
Yet it may do to occasionally publish friendly
notice. and we have therefore resolved to copy a
few words of commentator from our exchanges,
as specimens of many we receive.
The Vermont Citizen says:
The Times is a good specimen of western
paper-fresh and vigorous The editor is an able
and entertaining writer.
The Clayton Co. Herald among other remarks,
has the following concerning our paper:
1t bears the marks of a master workman in its
general appearance, and is well conducted ana
readable paper.
The Romeo Argus gives US the following quite
favorable notice
The Eastmanve Times is spirited Sheet pub
lshed at Grand River, by EASTMAN & Co., and we
have a desire to know who the printers are. 1t is
