However, dealers are all well supplied. Th tii>iiver kilns i'.re preparing to close up their shipments by canal. We fiuoto prices stron.g at $1.15 per libl for com¬ mon and $1.75 do for finishing, which includes .stock from Port Ann, Glenn's Falls, Bald Mountain, and Ilockland, L"UMBBR.—As the season grows- later the market is quieting down .somewhat, and. there is'ah-eady much less business transacted that was noticed, even as late as a week since, Buildirs wi'l need much less material during the cold weather than they required while warm weather permitted them to labor continuous y and without obstruc¬ tion ; of course, the"ir operations will not be wholly sup¬ pressed, even by the apjiroach of winter, and as the niiinufacturm.g classes are hardly affected by iitmos^pheriual coange.s, lumbtr will find its customary outlet for the. .sea¬ son, which, although not exhau.stive, serves to enliven the yards from time to t.me and prevent utter dulness from set¬ tling over them. At the lumber districts West, stock is moving again, but it is believed that much more can be for¬ warded this season; however, the supply in. this city is. pretty fair. Quotations are unchanged. Eastern Spruce has met with no change yet, and nothing in the reports reaching us indicate an immediate de|iarture from ijrescnt quotations, to wit: §17@21, all quaUties in luded, - The exports of lumber are as follows:— This weak.

BBICK.—Throughout the week the.market has shown a continued activity; cargoes have not, however, been arriv¬ ing either with much frequency or regularity, some boats having laid quietly at the docks the whole time. So it has happened fchat for all .arriving a quick oufclefc was found, the dealers who had not already secured the. stock they needed for the winter purchasing freely for that purpose,, and it is safe to say that now they are pretty well supplied. The demand has stimulated prices, and we quote a sUght advance of 25c on all kind.s. For the future it is predicted that prices will not advance much further, for the reason that from this time the probabilities are that trade will be¬ gin fco slack up'for the season. We quote Haverstraw Bay brick at $S®9.75 per M; North rivers and Jer^-eys. $7.75 @9 do,; Pale, ^5,25i^5.75 do; Croton Fronfcs, $12® 16 do ; Philadelphias, from yard, $40@45 do.

From the,Saginaw Couriej; Nov. 10 :— The luinber market has been somewhat depreR.sed during the past month, and there can hardly be said to be any markefc quotations at the present time. There is but little lumber now being bought; the .season has so far advanced, that no purcha,seB.are made, except in urgent cases, for im¬ mediate shipment. The high rate of lake freight that has prevailed for the past 60 days, in a measure deterred ship¬ ments. a.na which, taken with the loss of a nrunber of barg¬ es in the Saginaw lumber carrj'ing trade, cripphng the shipping capacity, has induced the accumulation of large stocks on the river. The season will close with a much larger amount of lumber on hand than last year. From fche .subjoined tables it will be seen that, although the ship¬ ments for the sea,son. fall behind those of last year, the 6hip- ments during October exceed-those of the corresponding nionth of last year, and would, haye been much gi-eater had tha carrying capac.ty of the Te.=sels in the Saginaw trade admitted. The first two tables show the shipments from East Sagiifaw and Bay City during the^ month of October for the years named:— '. 1870. Lumber........ 427,207,808 Lath........... 32,124,784 Shingles........ 110,204,520 Slaves......... ...... From the Saginaw Cou7'ie7', Oct. 31: A fire broke out in the lumber piles on the dock, fronting fche mill of T, Jerome & Oo , at Carroltoivat about 1 p.m., yesterday, which threatened to become a vast conflagration. Happily, however, through the efforts of the fire depart¬ ments of Carrolton, this city and Saginaw, as well as the cutting out of lumber pUes, and throwmg the lumber into the river and bayou, an extensive fire was averted. The loss of lumber by fire, and what was thrown into the river to prevent the spread of the fiames, is estimated at from 1,300,000 to 1.500,000 feefc, which may be computed to be worth from $15,000 to §18,000. From the Dubuque (Iowa) IIe7-ald. Nov. 5:— The lumber interests of this city sustained a .severe lo3 last week in the de.'^truction.by fire of four million feet of lumber, owned by the Dubuque Lumber Company, involv¬ ing a lo.ss of some $40@50,000, cxclu.sive of insurance, which was only $30,000. The mUl was saved, but in a damaged condition, consequent upon the removal of ma¬ chinery. This less nas reduced the stock on hand and the season being too far advanced to make ifc up, all dealers hold firm and will elo.se in for the winter with the smaliesfc stocks on hand Known for ye.ars, taldiig out the above loss. The market otherwise presents nothing of special import. : The river declines daily and is very low, impeding the run¬ ning of steamers and rafts; however, a few work theirway down, fighting sand-bars and high uinds. Sales afloat were 100 M common Sfc. Croix lumber. Sta¬ ples &, Co, to Beed for $14, Reed sent 500 M Shaw's lum¬ ber below last week. Trade in the yards has fallen off in the aggregate as dis¬ closed by shipments since the Dub. L. Co. ceased forward¬ ing. The majority of dealers leport trade quiet, with no change in prices. From the Chicago Ti7nes, No-v. 6 :— Lumber vessels were.in fair demand last week, and as the offerings were liberal, rates were easier and generally" low¬ er, closing as follows :— Manistee. $4..5@5,; Ludington. $4.50(a4.75.: Penfcwater, $4.25@4.50; Menomonee, $4; Mnskejion, $3.50; White- h.-.ll, $4.25@4.50 ; Grand River. $3.75.; Green Bay, $6; Oconto, $5. Another dnU and altogefcher unsafcisfactoi-y week has just been experienced' in the wholesale lumber market. The daily receipts from the east shore of Lake Michigan have been moderately large, as coinpared with past seasons, but buyers wore very backward in entering an appeai-ance at the Franklin street exchange, and as the demand was light, a weak aud declining market was experienced. The demand was chiefly of a re.stricted local character, and prices de¬ clined from 25 to 50c on common board.s, strips, joist, and scantling, while fche markefc for choice mill-run. lumber was' perceptibly easier. As for some time past, the oft'erings con- sic-ted laigely of common assortments. Owing to the dul¬ ness of our market, and the insufficient prices paid here, several mills at Man'i.stee, Muskegon, and. other points have " shut down" for the season, and other mills wiU shortly, follow their example. A large fleet arrived here on yesterday, but there was. scarcely any demand, and prices were almost nominal, clos¬ ing as follows:— Good to choice mUl-run lumber, $17.00@,19.C0; Common to good strips and boards, 12,50@I6.50; Common mixed lumber, 13.00(^12.50. Joisfc and scantling, 10.50©ll.Gb Shingles,3@3,15; Lath, 3.25: Pickets ,@9, The foUowing sales were reported :— Cargo ot schr J. F-. Tracy, faom Manistee, 130,000 feet mixed lumber; timber at $16; joisfc and scantling at $11, sold by Cu-shman, Calkins Sa Co. Cargo of schr Souvenir, fi'O.'u Pentwater, 900,M shingles, at $3.15, sold by Wm. Meglade. Shingles were in fair demand on track, at the annexed unchanged prices;— A, or star..............................$3 12X@3 37X No, 1, sawed........................... 1 50(g2 00 . Three doUara per. car to be added when transferred which charge follows the shingles. Thickness.—Five shin¬ gles to be two inches in thickness. Length—Sixteen inches. From Bertholds & Jennings' Circular, &t, Louis, Mo., Nov. 7;— White pine is steady and prices are unchanged. The low water has veen very unfavorable, for rafting and lately much trouble has been met from this cause. Chippewa has been quotable at $17@i8, and Vrtsconsm, §18®62. Shin¬ gles are firm at §:i.50. Lath steady. A fair business was transacted on the levee and at the depots. "Tetd trade very ^gcod. Yellow Pine.—The receipts of flooring were large and the dealers seemed troubled a little in absorbing them, which may be attributed to their reluctance in laying in a large supply of green thus early in the season. Dry flooring is in fair: request. We quote first and second-rates, green and
