Is a prosperous incorporated village of 1,500 population located on the line of the D. L. & N. R. R., 14 miles west of Lansing, 24 southeast of Ionia, and 97 from Detroit. It is in Oneida township, on the northern border of Eaton county, 16 miles north of Charlotte, the county seat. Grand river, upon which it is located, furnishes first class water power, utilized by grist, saw and pian - ing mills. A good farming country, well cultivated surrounds the village, and valua- ble beds of building stone and coal, but little developed, as yet, are in the immediate vic- inity. Lumber, staves, flour, grain, live stock and some fruit are shipped. Grand Ledge was first settled in 1837 and incorpo- rated in 1871, and from its eligible position, and natural advantages must become a place
of considerable importance. It has five churches, embracing the Baptist, Congrega- tional, Lutheran, Methodist and Presbyter. ian denominations and an efficient school system.

GRAND RAPIDS.
The city of Grand Rapids had 25,989 in- habitants when the State census was taken in IS74, and to-day doubtless contains 30,- 000 people or more. The increase from 1870 to 1874 averaged 2,369 per year, a rate that has probably held good since the latter date.
Its chief natural advantages are water communication with lake Michigan by means of Grand river, on which steamers run at all seasons of the year except when the river is frozen over ; the immense water power afforded by the rapids in the river, surpassing any other in the State ; the great agricultural resources of the country sur- rounding it; the immense quantities of pine and hard wood timber on the Grand river and its tributaries, which find a natural market here; and the extensive beds of gypsum or plaster in and near the city.
In addition to these natural advantages, it is the center of a system of railroads which enter it from eight different directions, throwing open to its manufactured products the markets of the world.
Its site is one of great natural beauty, ly- ing on both sides of the river, (here some Soo feet wide), between the high bluffs which stand nearly two miles apart, and from whose summits the eye takes in a beautiful panorama of hill, vale and river. The eastern bluff is now nearly covered with residences, and the reservoir occupies its highest point. The city is well laid out with wide streets, most of which are now in good condition, being either paved or well graveled.
WATER POWER. .
The water power furnished by the rapids in Grand river is brought into use by means of two canals, one on each side of the river. The east side canal is half a mile long, 140 feet wide at the guard gates and 30 at the lower end; best head of water, 12 feet : height of dam, 6} feet. This canal is com. pletely lined with factories from one end to the other. The west side canal, completed by W. T. Powers in 1860, is 3, 300 fect long. 100 feet wide at the upper end and 50 at the lower: amount of fall, 15 feet; height et dlaam, of feet.

RAILROADS.
The Detroit and Milwaukee railroad, which passes through the north part of the city, extends from Detroit to Grand Haven, a distance of 189 miles, at which place it connects with lines of steamers to Milwaukee and Chicago.
The Chicago and Michigan Lake Shore railroad runs between New Buffalo (a station on the Michigan Central railroad), and Grand Rapids, running through trains to Chicago.
The Grand Rapids and Indiana railroad is among the longest roads in the United States, being 358 miles in length, reaching from Petoskey, near the northern extremity of the lower peninsula of Michigan, and Traverse City, on Grand Traverse Bay, to Fort Wayne, in Indiana.
The Grand Rapids, Newaygo and Lake Shore railroad extends 48 miles northwest to Morgan, a station on the Chicago and Michi- gan Lake Shore railroad, between Muskegon and Grand Rapids, and will eventually be extended to lake Michigan.
The Michigan . Central (Grand Rapids division) extends from Jackson to Grand Rapids.
The Lake shore and Michigan Southern railway (Kalamazoo division), extends from White Pigeon to Grand Rapids, and is im- portant as giving this city connection with the main line of that road.
MANUFACTORIES.
Grand Rapids is particularly noted for the extent and variety of its manufactures of furniture and different varieties of wood work. The value of furniture, alone, manu-

factured during the year preceding the State census was $1, 100,000, since which time the principal factories have added considerably to their productive capacity.
The manufacture of lumber in Grand Rapids averages about 75,000,000 feet per year.
SCHOOLS, LIBRARY, ETC.
The city is well supplied with school buildings, nearly all of them built of brick in the most substantial manner. The prin- cipal of these structures are the Central School building, valued at $$5,000 and the Union School building on the west side of the river, $40,000.
The city has a public library of nearly 7,000 volumes, located in elegant- ly furnished rooms in one of the finest 34ª
blocks of the city, where it is readily ac- cessible to all.
STREETS.
The total length of streets now opened in the city is over 131 miles, of which. are :

. NEWSPAPERS.
Grand Rapids has four daily newspapers : The Grand Rapids Eagle, Grand Rapids Democrat, Grand Rapids Times and The News Item, a penny daily started De- cember 1876. The weekly newspapers are eight in number, viz : Eagle, Democrat, Times, Saturday Evening Post, Vrijheids Banier, (Holland), De Standaard (Holland), Staat Zeitung (German) and The Greenback, just started.
CHURCHES.
The following is a list of the most im. portant church buildings together with an estimate of their value :
Park Congregational Church $65,000
St. Mark's ( Episcopal) 65,000
Division Street Methodist 45,000

Universalist. 20,000
BANKS.
There are six banking houses in the city -- The First National Bank, City National Bank, Grand Rapids Savings Bank, and three private institutions.
WATER WORKS.
The city has an efficient system of water supply, the water being drawn from spring brooks in the vicinity and forced by steam pumps to a reservoir on the highest point of the hill east of the city, giving a head of over 150 feet on the principal streets. As a means of fire protection the water works have proved of great value, reducing the cost of insurance nearly one-half. The city has also three steam fire engines and a well sup- plied and thoroughly disciplined fire depart- ment
BUILDINGS.
The principal building material used on the business streets is a beautiful white brick manufactured in the city, which preserves its color for years, owing to the fact that but little soft coal is consumed. Most of the stores and shops have plate glass fronts.
U. S. BUILDING.
A United States building for the use of the postoffice and the United States Courts and other offices is now in process of erection,
the basement having been completed last year. It will be of brick and occupy a whole square near the business center.
SUBURBS.
Just south of the city are the Kent county fair grounds, among the most extensive and best arranged in the State, being fitted with extensive buildings for the use of the State fair. Two miles east of the city is Reed's lake, a charming body of water, on the shores of which the wealthier citizens of Grand Rapids have built numerous summer houses, and which is a favorite resort for all classes.

Most families have one or more with life embittered by needless suffering-seldom free from pain, always conscious of diseases or disability. Yet they can be cured by the skilful Specialist.
AS Established here in extensive practice since 1869 ( at St. Louis in '65; San Francisco during '73), enjoying a wide and merited reputation as a most successful Physician, and having thorough qualifications, insight and aptness for the Healing Art, with a complete supply of instruments, appliances, and all the best rieans and remedies known to the Profession, a constant succession of cures still attends Dr. Aikin's practice, and conse- quently the number of his patients is ever on the increase.
DR. AIKIN,
The well known Specialist, now permanently located in Grand Rapids, Mich. His Improved Remedies cx 2 Treatment have made him Celebrated for his Extraordinary Success. All classes of Patients Treated as Equal care aud Skill. Hundreds attest the Great Efficacy of the Treatment. Hearing and Sight Restores. Lung, Throat, and other Chronic Diseases cured; and Broken Down constitutions built up and Reinvigorated. Serious, complicated Diseases, that for Many Years Resisted the Treatment of Numerous Physicians, are Speedily cured by Dr. Aikin.
A DOCTOR TO HAVE FAITH IN
A lady writes to Dr. Aikin : " I am so soon and easy well by your treatment that my faith in you is ua- bounded, and shall recommend you to all my friends as a most reliable physician." "Must have help, or die, or go insane I concluded," writes a man of 26, in poor health for years, who, after a short treatment by Dr. Aikin, further states : "Your remedies are having a remarkable effect. I can sleep better, am gaining flesh .. and my health is improving in all respects." DR. AIKIN has given the public sufficient evidence to convince the most skeptical and incredulous that his method of treatment is peculiarly successful in every department of his Great Specialties, especially such cases as have defied the skill of other and justly celebrated physicians ; No ONE SHOULD DESPAIR that is afflicted with seemingly incurable disease, but cherish a hope of being relieved of suffering, if not entirely cured, by his experienced skill and care.
BLINDNESS! DEAFNESS !!
All Diseases and Affections of the Eye and Ear successfully treated by mild remedies. Cross Eyes Straight- ened. Artificial Eyes inserted that look natural. No pain.
CATARRH, CONSUMPTION
Asthma, Bronchitis, and all Throat and Lung Complaints (which, in this country, are the greatest ene- mies to Health and Life,) when change of climate and all else fails, are cured by Dr. Aikin's Improved Inhaler and Constitutional Restorative Treatment.
LINGERING OR CHRONIC, AND SURGICAL DISEASES.
Scrofula, Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, Piles, Goitre, Dropsy, Gravel, Constipation, Tape-Worm, Liver Dis- eases, Cancers, Tumors, Fistula, Hare Lip, Club-Foot, etc., remedied by the most approved methods.
Stammering, and Impediments in speech that daily and hourly vex and mortify, and St-Stuttering, make one a laughing-stock through life, permanently cured by a scientific, rational and practical method-the cause removed, and cure permanent and positive.
LADIES Married or single, confidently consult the Doctor on any delicate derangement of health, as he is doubtless the most skilful Ladies' Physician in the World. Do not suffer from Pain, Weak- ness, Whites, Ulceration, Suppression, or other diseases, and drag out a miserable life when you can be certain of easy, safe, and speedy cure in any case by applying to DR. AIKIN.

GENTLEMEN! YOUNG, MIDDLE-AGED & OLD MEN. Suffering the sad effects on body and mind of Self-Abuse, Excesses, Disease, or Defect, whatever read or doc. tored in vain, let not despair or false modesty be your ruin, but call, or send at once, Me"The only sure, ra- tional lasting cure for Spermatorrhea, Seminal Weakness, Nervous Debility, Impotence, etc. No quackery er deception. Friendly advice and reliable aid. It is well known that Dr. A. always effects a cure. His treatment includes ALL~you need never look elsewhere. Those about to marry should not fail to consult him.
SURE, quickest, and mild remedies for all private diseases or old symptoms. Glee:, Syphilis, Strictures, Defects, Phimosis, Hydrocele, Varicocele, etc., radically cured. No mercury used. Private Rooms. No "getties prescriptions." Travelers promptly supplied. While many innocent victims suter the terrible effects of certain diseases neglected or badly treated by physicians in general (they should not be intrusted with these cases ) it is right andproper to use plain terms that the indiscrete or unfortunate may know where to get help, and ad offense can be taken by pure minded persons-See Titus 1-15.
CONFIDENTILL.'
Every patient (either sex) may freely state all particulars of their case to Dr. Aikin, either in person or by letter, reposing to his trust any delicate personal, or family matter, and can always rely upon the strictest c. fidence and secrecy. DO. DR. AIKIN guarantees better, safer treatment (and for less money) in all Secola? Cases than can be had elsewhere. He is easily accessible from all points.
