SOME EARLY HISTOY, The first United States light vessel for the guidance of vessels at the head of Mackinaw Straits, or passing Skillagalee was, the schooner Louis McLane, built at Detroit and launched trom Oliver Newberry’s dock in 1832, and stationed soon after at the atove place. The first attempt toward the construction of a lighthouse at Chicago was in 1831, and-was to have been completed in the fall of that year. It was a failure, owing to the quicksand over which it was built. One also at Thunder Bay Island the sare year was destroy ed before completion, owing to the near approach of the swells of Lake Huron, and the washing out of the mortar between the stones. ‘I'he loss of the schoon- er Supply is mentioned as having occurred in Mackinaw Straits, November, 1832, freighted with 150 pounds of salt. She bilged and sank in about three feet of water. She was owned by the mission at Mackinaw, and her loss was attributed to the inefficiency of the crew, who had but little experience in lake navigation. For the improvement of Cleveland har- bor, on Lake Erie, in 1827, $19,000 was ex- pended under the administration of John Q. Adams. And for the building of two piers at Oswego harbor, Lake Ontario, $33,348.64. On Lake Ontario in 1818, the steamer On- tario, the first on the lakes, was commanded by Captain Robert Hugunin, and in 1827 by Captain P. Ingalls. The agencies were C. Hotchkiss, Lewistown; O. Hathaway, Youngstown; Alvin Bronson and Matthew McNair, Oswego; P. Butterfield, Sackett’s Harbor; Ainsworth & Lee, Cape Vincent: A. Chapman & Co., Morristown; John C, Bush, Ogdensburg. Prices current at Detroit in 1818 were as follows: Flour, $8.50 per barrel; pork, $26.00 per barrel; whisky, $39.50 per bar- rel; beef, 10 vents per pound; corn, $1 per bushel; potatoes, 75 cents; turnips, 50 cents ; cheese, 16 cents per pound; lumber, $15 per M; butter. 25 cents per pound, and port wine 50 cents per gallon.
