prejudces against lake voyage, and have

been safety. The next object attained is swift.

duty Of every employee of the road. Yet,
with all their straightforwardness there 10 none
of that obtrusive impertinence that often At.
taches to their business.
Much could he said Of the smootfness and
solidity Of the road-the heavy iron rails with
their peculiar joints and chains making it all
like one continuous rail of the extensive and
elegant Depot buildings at Grand Haven and
Detroit-the long pier being built at Grand
Haven, and the large and airy accommodations
for travellers in the Depot at Detroit-the bath
ing troughs for emigrants-the beautiful fount-

which the road makes its first 100 miles, and
many other things but it would take too long
a letter and must be omitted.

say, try this route and ii not satisfied and even

Weather, Markets, &c.
The weather is fine as can be expected, a
heavy rain on Monday night and change to
cool bracing air puts extra vigor in everybody.
The market fer the week has been quite
steady, wheat ranging from So to 81, the latter
price being paid for an extra nice article of
club. On yesterday, So to 60 were the beat fig
ures, So being the ruling rates. Oats are lit
tie better. ls to 20 and possibly % being Offer
ed for few lots. A good deal of excitement
ON the Ferry que s.ion took place last week
absence prevented our seeing it. Dealers on
this side declined to buy wheat, and the effect
was run on the Ferry till the street was block
ed, the boat was blocked, and farmers and trav.
elers were obliged, in some instances, to wait
several hours to cross. Some nice swearing was
the result. Since then, the wheat has been
bought on this side and carried oyer in barges
at much esq expense and trouble to the R R.
Co. This difficulty will pass away in q short
time. We have private advices from some of
the Directors of the Road, and the trouble
here is in shape to be shortly dissipated.-
Let it drop for the present. Saturday found
our town so full Of teams that passing and re-
passing was almost impossible the Council
were called upon to open way to allow trav-
elers to get by! Business is very brisk, and
everybody is full of animation.

Correction.
The compiler of the Table Of State Expenses printed
in last weeks Times, writes VS. follows:
Ed. Times 1T is thought by some that the TABLE
OF EXPENDITURES, published in the last number Of
the Times, does the Republican party great injustice
and find on review of it, that it contains some in.
accuracIes. am the last person who would see in
justice done the Republican party by mis-st atement
of mine. You will therefore please make the follow
ing cor; ections
The Auditors Report for 1855 aud 8, shows the Ex-
penses Of those two years to be 600, 10 than
stated in the Taole Aud the report for 1857, shows
still greater error, instead OF the expenditures being
$2l4 g. stated in the Table for that year
alone, they are foutd to be S37l ,0O7 90. and
saying nothing of the probable amount that the Ac-
TuAL EXPENDITURES WILL EXCEED THE EsTIMAT rs
shown by the two last year., will be found that the
Appropriation Bill of last Session, includes over
$135sOOO, not included in Auditors estimate, which
WOULD INCREASE THE 10 AL EXPENDITURES
UNDER REPUBLICAN RULE, OVER $4,000
NO. THAN THE A0GR RGATs SHOWN ON TABLE but
zee that the people have taken the matter into their
own hands, and have employed competent Attorneys
to prosecute their clainl and want them to have
an impartial hearing, do not wish to prejudice the
public IN advance, but will await the and the

MARvELLoUs.-A Mr.. Bettys and Mr.. Price
write to the Gamavillo Journal that the Demo-
Gratis are getting up an Independent ticket to
distract the Republicans with. As it is gener.
ally admitted that the Democrats are in mi.
nority in Clayton we cannot exactly see why
they desire to split so as to succeed! Major.
ties usually split, but as minorities are beaten
in either case, certainly if they dioide, it looks
strange to impute to them an anxiety to put
their defeat beyond contingency.
