THN “SARATOGA OF THE WEST.” Correspondence of The Chicage Lridune, @RAND HAVER, Mich,, July 20, 1874, - Of all the numerous pleasure-resorts in the Northwent, thore probably cannot elsewhere bo found, In the mame radius, au oqual number of tho fmportant roquisites to tho onjoyment of a summor's vacation that can bo obtained in the combined sttractions of Grand Haven, Spring Lake, and Fruitport, whicli, though distinctively soparato in thomeselvos, are mora familiarly and popularly known s& tho '*BARATOGA OF THE WEST.” They aro In closo proximity to each other, laying all within a radius of aboutG milos, and are oasily roachod by delightful tripu, either by land or watar,—Grand Haven boing situated upon Grand Rlver, which communicatos with Spring . Lako, on tho banks of which are tho resorts of Bpring Lako and Fraitport, at opposite enda of the Jake. Each of those plrcos hag numerous attractions in boating, fishing, bunting, pleasant drives, nod a cloar, pure, healthy stmosphere, with = olimuto that is doevoid of extremes, and which i8 made romarkebly ploasant by the oxhilarating, rofreshing broezes that continually blow from ILake Michigan. An attractive featurs is the Magnetic Minaral Bprings, the wators of which hays obtained s wideapread colebrity for tho wonderfnl ourative properties theyaro said to possess. Though but a compartivoly short timo sinco brought into natorlety, theao places have already gained an envisble roputation a8 watering-places and pleasant resorts, and yonrly attract large num- bers of invalids and pleasura-saokers. The prinoipal ono among theso rosorts s 3 GRAND HAVEN, the original “8aratoga of the Wost." This plage is comparativoly within easy reach of Chi- cago, as ono can loave Chicngo &t 7 o'clock in the evening, on ono of tho splendid boata of the Qoodrich Line, nnd arrive at an onrly hour the noxt morning. After leaving here, tho stoamer gocs on up fo Bpring Lako and Fruit- port. By o recent arrangoment, the boats loave Chicago of & Baturday evening and roturn Sun- day ovening, which gives large mumbera = fine opportunity for passing o plensant Sunday in a cool and comfortable manner. Thia placo ia pleasantly located on the banks of 5 GRAXD DIVER, near the shores of Lske Michigan, and is par- tially surrounded by immeneo sand-hille, which protect it from the effoots of any storma that may disturb the lake, The river winds in and out, around to the right, and dienppears among the pine-woods off in the distance, presonting a vyory ploasing appearanca with ita intricate wind- ings, looking like a silvery thread. Nothing could soem to be moro pleasant than a trip up tho river to the DATOUS, which are to bo fonnd sbout 4 miles up. Thoso aro miniaturs lnkes,which aro of about theeame dopth as the river, and abound in fish; And, besldes, thero is always f:oud game to bo found in their immediate vicinity. The bayous present & charmiug appoarance, the scenery being very picturesque. To tho_ploasuro-secker, the greatost atirac- tion afforded is that offored by the magnificent FIBHING that is to_ bo found in abundunce in the lnkes, river, and bayous, in this vicinitv. Thore aro almost all the varioties of fresh-water fish, of fine quality and largo in sizo; ud it is not necossary to have the skill of an exporienced sngler to enjoy the fine mport, with & prospect of success in catching a plontiful supply. The differont varletios of bass predominuto, but tho black baes offer the fincst aport, and aro moro sought atler, as thoy slways show a groat doal of fight, giving the snglor much enjoyment in his offorts to overcame tho tenacious resistanco of his victim. This sport attracts numerous fisbing parties from Chicago and other places, An csgential and pleasant foature, especs ‘o the invalids, is the TLEASANT DRIVES, nost of which have only of Jate besn construct- W, grmdynlly through private ontorprive. A lolightful ono is that through thowoods, and setwean ponch-orchards, to the Driving-Lark, snd along tho river-side to the bayous. Probebly the most uitractive ono is that juet opened ta e lake-shore, in tho midst of immonsa xills and deep_ravines, covorod with n heavy growth of timber of different varictics, and an andorgrowth of shrubbery, which farnish, with Jhoir beautiful contrusts of various tints of groen, a acens of romautio aud picturarque beau- 1y. At theend of this drive are opportunitios for SURP-BATHING, which proves a plousant addition to the enjoy- ment of all. A pimlic-fizfllmd 38 boing Inid out, and this will probably bo the most popular drive In this vicinity, Three times & day tho large four-horsoe open "bus, belonging to the Cutler House, leaves for tho lako, for the accommoda- tion of the gucats; and, aa there is no exponse sttending, it is well appreciated by tho largo nnmber who flud this o plossant and aoceptable Wiy to pasa away time. Ot course tho principal astraction to ali, and that which has given the prominont notoriety to thoe place, aro tho calobratod MAGNETIC MINERAL SPRING which haye obtained such succoss 1n :lm euro of ohrouio disoases.

Having noticod tho varioua attractions of thin rosort, and given somo idoa of the prominent foatures of the place, I will close my roviow of Grand Hovon with e fow romarks in regard to the PENRY FAMILY, who now resido hore, and wore nmunfi the first sottlors at Grond Haven, When first sotilod Liore, thoy woro uam[:‘nrnfively oor, but ull of the male portivn of the family bave grown ap to wonlth and fufluenco, having all fillod fm-~ ortant placos of trust and honor in he Btats and nation, Whey ondured all the hordships of an omly settio- mont, and have livod to seo Itgrowuptoa haudgone city and attractive rosort, giving its honollts to tho thousands who yeurly visit it, At first their only occupation and business was LUNBENING ; But now, thongh thoy yet own Inrge interests in it, tho thros brothers follow difforent pursuits, Willism Porry, tho oldcat, hns oxteusive boilor and machine shops at Forrysburg, doing » large and profitablo business, Ilo hanintorssted him- #olf in the geological formation of this scotion of Michigan, and 1ias addod o grent denl of val- uablo information to the rocent survey.

This ja the at-presont fashionsble commudity that obtaius political friondship; and the hand- nomo Senator will find this “hard-caph " pro the boat way of inflating him into his scaon Sanatarial tarm. Having dwolt at considerable longth on Grand Haven, I will now mention somo of the interest~ ing foatures of . EPRING TLAKE, which I8 next in promiusuce, and & charming re- gort, being delightfully situatod upon a ponin- sula formed by Grand River and Spring Lake, which biore unite, and 2 miles beyond pour thelr waters into Lake Michigan. As both the river avd Inko are nuvigablo for the largost steamers, it enables the nuinoroua toursts to laud direct at itu piore from Chicago and Milwankee, making & splendid trip, for n day’s enjoyment, by the daily line of stenmers from oither placs. Tho prinoipal business is that of LUMBENING, and the banks of tho river ars dotted by numer- ous saw-mills, and shingle-mills, which offor an interoating altraction to visitors, who woll ap~ preeiats the eplendid opportunities afforded for inspecting at leisuro tho novel foature of manu. fecenting the immenso rails of logs that lazily 1loat down the river, into almost every variety oid quality of boards, shingles, laths, otc, Through thio kinduess of Mr. D, Cutler (one of tho ownera), and under his cscort and super- vislon, I, with a large party of ladies and gontlemen, inspoctod tho oporation of making lumber in each of tho threo BAW-MILLS owned by the Cutler & Savidge Lumber Com- pany, which aro here situated, surrounded by extensivo lumber-yards, ‘Thoro was first a largo chin attachod to three logs, which ware then druwn from tho water iuto the mill.
