Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1859-04-25

PAINEsyILLE TENSION Friday last mysteIi.
Gus hints were rife about town of midnight
alarms" and "ghostly deeds which were expected
TO astonsh and petrify the stad inhabitants of the
beautiful village Of Panesvale, and 80 significant
were these hints that when the 800 train started
for the east it bore away a goodly company Of
"broihers" who were ready aud willing to join the
expedition" Arriving at Painesyllle it was found
that the call had gone iorth to call all worthy Sons
Of Malta to join with the Paineavllle Sons in q
midnight procession and other interesting exer.
cises. Soon after dark, however, heavy storm Of
wind and rain came on which put damper upon
the project of appearing "in costume" aud, the
storm increasing the public exercises were post
poned for four weeks, hoping by that time TO have
some of that pleasant weather for which we have
looked in vain for the past three weeks, Notwiih-
standing this disappointment, the Lodge exercises
conducted in the Hall which the Sons occupy in
conjunction with the Odd Fellows--and which by
the way is as pleasant and prettIy finished as any
Hall we have seen--were Of character to amply
repay the Cleveland visitors for their trip. At the
close of the exercises the meeting adjourned TO the
Cowles House and enjoyed social meal, enlivened
by fun, fact and fancy. The proprietor of the
Cowles House furnished the "iact" while for the
fun and fancy, each man spoke for himself At
length, after most happily spent evening" the
company dispersed, and before morning each mem
Der had departed" OF the Cowles House, we
need to say nothing TO those who have enjoyed a
stop within It's hospitable wells Booth, the land
lord is just the social attentive, energetic man one
likes to find at the head OF popular hotel and 1t
is generally conceded fact, that he can "keep a
hotel" in good style
The Painesyille Brass Band enllvened the pro-
coedings Of the evening by excellent music.
Main street, which has suffered 80 dlsaslrously
from fire, has arisen from the ashes greatly mprov
ed in convenience aud beauty. The new blocks
which line is Southern side, have been built so far
back TO widen the street some twenty feet
The new blocks have been spoken Of before and
we can only add that Judge Wilcox, who has done
50 much for the village, is about to erect still an
other handsome block tearing down for tbe pur-
pose, the only building nov located upon the old
street line. When this work Is done, aud the pro.
jected improvements upon the Tibbetta estate
completed, there will DO but little room for lm-
provement upon the Southern side of Main street
The Lake Erie Female Seminary Will be ready
for occupancy in September The work is going
rapidly forward upon the building, many of the
rooms being finished. The structure has q very
imposing front which shows to excellent advan.
tage from the railway. The ample grounds In
front are being graded and ieyelled, work which
10 our opinion should never be done, for at pres.
ent they present diversity Of surface far more
pleasing than q dead level would be- We presume
however that the ridges and undnlatlons win not
be wholly cut down and hlled up. When estab
lished this school willbo superior one worthy
full attendance, which It will doubtless receive
