This is . small fort situated beck from the
river half mile, the benefit Of which l will
not try to explain. I now began to feel the
effect Of drinking river water. The appearance
and taste might be best imagined by mixing in
Q gallon Of water half dozen stale eggs with
two quarts of clay mud. This drink to say the
least is very unpalstable, and We were Obliged
to forego our stoic resolution. The scenery
along the river margin is monotonous, though
there is less diversified surface as We pro-
coed up the river.
Thursday, April 18th. the steamer ran upon
a sand bar where she remained during the
most of the day, notwithstanding the exertions
of the officers and crew to get her off. After
patience had become nearly exhausted, we
we're again, at four o'clock In the afternoon,
slowly winding onr way up the river. We now
passed an Indian village of the Brule tribe
Some OF the passengers amused themselves by
throwing hard tack ON shore to see the many
little mps snatch for il before II hardly reached
the ground This tribe is very numerous, and
though receiving annuities from the Govern
ment, are said to show all the ferocty OF their
nature when they find some unfortunate alone
and unprotected.
Soon leaving the natives in the distance we
watched the distant hills until the sea gull had
gone to her rest, when we too sought our
couch, soon to be lost in the arms of Nor
pheus.

DETROIT MARKET.
DETROIT, May 10, 1871

DETROIT. May 10, 1871.
The week thus far has shown quite reviva,
in the wheat market Some grades being 4@
&c better than at the close OF last week. New
York dispatches received to-day, report a firmer
market, and there seems general advance at
all points. Extra white wheat sold to-day at
S1.55; Treadwell at S1.49 and amber at 81, A.
Corn is firmer but unchanged, at 63@6ic. Oats
firm and unchanged at 55@5519 for mixed
state, aud SIC for white. Beans are somewhat
more inquired for. Sales of medium state are
reported at 91.35@l 80. City hand-picked are
OF course higher. Butter 10 in more free sup
ply, and good to choice new is the only grade
that is quotabe. The general average is 1890
zoe with q sometimes obtained There is still
plentiful supply of common and inferior that
brings III prices when it brings any. Cheese
still firm at 17a1sc for choice factory, and 1900
16 for common. Eggs steady ut 121<@lSc.-
Hops, 4@7c without sales. Maple sugar is not
now much inquired for, and Is quotable at 12e

NEW YORK MARKET.
New YORK, May Is, 1877

NEW YORK, May 16, 1871.
Heavy imports Of foreign goods, and a con-
sequent heavy drain Of specie to meet foreign
exchange balances, have stimulated the gold
premium, which closes to-day at 111$4, with
prospects OF further advance. The ship
ments Of coin last week reached nearly SO, 000-
900. Sterling exchange to-day reached 11OH,
the highest for a long time past. The dry
goods market is inactive and prices Of all cot
ton goods steady except printing cloths, which
rule strong Breadstuffs have varied but
slightly durigg the week, and close strong,
especially for winter wheat. The stock Of
wheat now in hand is largely composed Of Wes-
tern spring, much Of which is unsound and
unsaleable. While, therefore, this class Of
wheat is a shade lower, winter grades are 102c
higher than at last report. The Liverpool
market is again on the advance having improv-
ed 1CG2d oil the week. The stocks IN British
ports are but moderate, and the crop prospects
there not favorable, 30 that the wants Of Great
Britain during the summer and fall are likely
to be considerable. Corn and oats each I'M
prove on the week 132c. Prime medium beans
are scare @, and there is a good demand for
small lots. Fair to good, crop of 1870, are
quotable at 5l.60@2. In Butter, Western tubs
sell well when in good color and properly sea-
soned. Only the best makes however are sale
able. White and streaked go only as grease,
but ready good yellow would meet fairlnquiry
Michigan tubs, good to prime, are quotable at
25@27c. some remarks have heretofore oeen
made as to the Style of butter packages. Open
packages OF good butter, where they can be
got on to the market in good order, are always
in demand for the local trade at outside prices,
but these should not be used except upon
certainty, first Of good quality. and second Of
their arrival in good condition. stock that
must take it's chance for shipment to all quar-
tiers, is best in secure packages.

FIRE.

On sunday morning last, the immense barn
and stables, Immediately in the rear Of the
Dyckman House, took fire by some means I'M
known. and was entirely consumed, together
with its entire contents When the fire was
first discovered it was breaking through the
roof at the rear or eastern end, and spread so
rapidly that all efforts to extinguish the flames
were unavailing BY the time the Little Fire
Engine arrived and was put in position the
rear Of the Dyckman House and the long wood
sheds we're on fire their whole length as was
also, the dwelling house of Richardson Avery,
situated on the opposite side OF the barn.
lust at this time the Fire Engine commenced
working and with such efficiency that the far
ther progress OF the fire was entirely arrested
The water was in short supply, on account
OF the source Of supply having been cut off by
the breakage in the dam OF the Paw Paw Mills
But by the timely and prompt action on the
part Of citizens present the tank was kept sup
piled by pals filled from wells and cisterns In
the neighborhood.
We have no data on which to base an esti-
mate Of the loss. Mr.. Lonewell lost heavily
IN hay, grain and wood. having full seasons
supply of those articles on hand. Mr. Avery
lost quite heavily-his house having been very
badly burned about the roof and upper por-
lions. His barn and contents were entirely
burned. He had an insurance on his house OF

Der and other property stored. The Meat
Market building, east of the Hotel. was some
what damaged. Messrs. Longwell and Van
Fossen had no insurance.
1t is the testimony of the entire community
that the Fire Engine proved as efficient as was
possible for any machine under any circum-
stances to have done.

On his way to the fire Mr.. Fenton ran against
