LOOK OUT FOR HiM.-A chap calling him
self "Mr. Dow," and claiming to be per-
sonal friend of Abe Lincoln and a relation
of several distinguished persons, went to DR..
Brooks boarding House on Ontario street on
Thursday, and representing himself as work
ing in the LEADER Office, engaged board. He
stayed until the next morning, his baggage
being cat the depot" when, after the board
ers had gone out, he stepped into several Ofthe
rooms and suited himself with some Of their
clothing. He was not particularly partial,
but took coat from one, and other articles
from others until he had full supply
Putting on then linen coat (which was
probably stolen somewhere) over the stolen
dress coat, he stepped out, telling the girl
that he was going for his trunks. He went
back in few minutes and got his own thick
coat which he had left and nothing more has
been seen of him.
He is a smooth-faced rascal, about twenty
years old, and has probably gone to visit his
"friend, Mr.. Lincoln"

ARREST OF PETTY FoRGER.-Y esterday
Mr.. Josiah Stacy, proprietor Of the Chapin's
Hall Confectionery and Refreshment Rooms,
was handed a note by young boy, purpOrt-
ing to be written by an acquaintance Of his,
requesting him to lend him two dollars, say
ing that he was going Off on the cars and
was short" Mr.. Stacy gave the money to
the boy, agreeably to the supposed request Of
his friend. Subsequently, on examining the
order he was satisfied it was forged. He i'm
mediately started down to the Square and
found the lad who brought the note, and
took the money away. The boy wes then
arrested and taken to the Watch House. On
being examined, he stated that he was en-
plOyed by young man to deliver the note,
as well as some others of a similar nature to
DR.. Ames and others. The boy was then re-
leased, it being apparent that he was inno-
cent.
Last evening the boy informed Mr.. Stacey
that the individual who employed him to
deliver the note, was then at the Post Office
Mr.. s. Immediately went down in company
with the boy, who pointed out young man
about 20 years old as the culPrit. Mr.. S. ar
rested him and took him to his store, and
sent for police officer, who took him to the
watch house. The forger is evidently an old
offender for one so young.

CoKE PROM HANMoNDsvILLE, OHIo.-The
propeller Pocahontas, loaded with one hun
dred and eighteen tons of coke, arrived on
Wednesday afternoon. This is the first car
90 of coke ever brought from the West to
this city. It is from the Hammondsville
Pottery and Coke Company, and is said by
the purchasers to be a superior article for
heating furnaces in malt houses, grain dry
ing and other uses, to anything Of the kind
made by Gas Companies, and is likely to
become of some Importance in the trade Of
our city.
The Pocahontas brought also sundry arti-
cles of pottery, such as chimney tops, vases,
water and gas pipe, brick, &c, which are at
tracing some attention, as useful articles
manufactured at Hammondsville, Ohio

TOT Int Leduef
Dent Remove the FOuntnini

fOr Ile Leader
Dent Remove the Fountain!
The Committee of the Common Council
have reported in favor of removing the
beautiful fountain, which for three years has
been an object of so much pride to our citi-
Gems, and so much pleasure to every one
passing through the Square, and of locating
it in that corner opposite the post Office
Now, for one, earnestly protest against such
an outrage for the following reasons, viz:
1. To remove the fountain to that spot
will compel them to cut down one of the
handsomest trees in the whole Park.
2. It will involve an outlay of at least
s., 900 to make the removal, and further
outlay hereafter Of from $4,000 to $4,000 to
erect three other similar fountains in the
three other corners of the Park.
3. The removal of the fountain is the first
and most important step made towards open
ing Superior street through the Park. Ifhe
fountain remains where it now is, the streets
cannot be opened but if it is removed, and
the Perry Monument substituted in its
place, there will be no obstacle in the way
of opening the street-as an iron fence Is
feet in diameter will be large enough to en-
close the statue and will be but little OBJ
struction to vehicles.
With all Difference to the opinion of the
Committee think the most suitable loca-
ton for the Perry Statue is where it was
originally designed to be put-at point
about half way between the Fountain and
Superior street. Facing the West, the left
hand of the Hero points towards the Lake,
the scene of his glorious victory. That Por-
ton of the Park is unobstructed by trees,
and the open space is abundantly large
to show the Statue to good advantage.
@ea
Weagree entirely with the views of our cor
respondent, and consider his plan a good
one. If it was practicable, the best plan
would be to place the statue in the centre Of
the Fountain basin and have four jets play
ing from the four corners, but this will prob
ably not be thought best. Next to that is
the original design of placing it in the cen
tre Of what was formerly Superior street
midway between the Fountain and east Of
west Superior streets, the latter being prefer
able. In its present location the Fountain
is seen and enjoyed by all, coming from
whatever direction. Ifplaced in the north
east section, it will become partially hidden
Place the monument in the spot suggested
and both that and the Fountain will be seer
by all who frequent the principal mart o
trade, Superior street. What say the people
and Whstthe Council.

LAUNCH-THE CLEVELAND AND OCEAN TRADE.
The second schooner built for the Boston
trade, and for Boston parties, will be launch
ed this afternoon from the yard of Messrs.
Lafrinier & Stephenson. This is without
exception the most beautifully modelled YES
sci that has ever left our harbor. She even
excels her mate, the Forest City, which left
for Boston about three weeks ago. Like that
one, this schooner is designed for the coast
ing trade between Boston and Albany in the
summer, and Chesapeake Bay in the winter.
She is 95 feet keel, 26 feet beam, and 81 feet
hold, and registers about 200 tons. She costs
about SIC, 1000, and is owned one-half by her
Commander, Capt. Lewis, Of Boston, and
one-half in Albany. She is christened the
% Lewis spannier," after Lewis Spannier of
Albany, who presents her with a magnif-
cent suit of colors, in pleasant contrast to the
action of our City Council in refusing to give
a suit of colors to the Forest City," Expe-
rienced builders speak in the highest pos
sible terms of the model and finish of this
vessel, and her Captain is delighted:
The ship building trade of Cleveland is
destined to take new and vigorous start in
this Atlantic coasting direction. This ves-
sci and the Forest City will give the Bos-
tonians some new ideas. This business was
inaugurated by Mr.. J. H. Clark at Boston
last winter. Having business there with one
of the heaviest dealers in ship lumber, nego-
tiations were commenced which resulted in
the order for these three vessels-the Forest
City, the spannier, and lighter for the Gulfof
Mexico trade, which. last will be completed
in about three weeks. The advantage to
Boston merchants of building their vessels
here may be understood from the fact that
ship plank which is there worth $50 per
thousand, can be had here, of better quality,
for SIS to $40; again, spars which cost $40
here, cannot be had there for less than
800. Then too, the vessel may make 81 900
in freight of lumber on her voyage.
We shall speak further of this subject at
another time-meantime we advise all who
love to see a beautiful object, to go and look
at the new craft which will enter her ele-
ment this afternoon at 4 o'clock. She will
be launched in full rig and WITH anpI---s5
chains, &C., complete. She will loNa at San
dusly with lumber for Boston.

SPLENDID METEoR.-Those persons who
were fortunate enough to be out Of doors
last night about o'clock, had most splen-
did meteoric exhibition. meteor rose
from the northwest horizon and described a
complete arc through the sky, rising about
forty degrees above the horizon and descend
ing in the East. As it rose, it appeared like
a shooting star Of the first magnitude, but it
increased in size as it progressed, until when
in the northeast, it flashed forth light equal
to that of a full moon. It's appearance at
this time was most magnificent; it flashed
and paled many times in quick succession,
and at length sank out of view, growing
smaller as it descended, until it was about the
size as when first seen. The light was of a
pale white, and long luminous path was
left behind it. Such perfect display comes
but once in a life time. We shall look with
interest to see how extensively it was obserV-
ed and what is said of it by astronomers.

PERsoxAL.-Hon. Francis W. Kellogg, NJ.
c., of Michigan, was in town yesterday.
Mr.. Kellogg was originally from Brecksville
in this county, where he pounded lapstone.
In the contest of 1s4O he was persuaded to
make speech, and succeeded 50 well that
he was always counted upon to tell stories,
and talk politics at the political meetings.
Many Clevelanders will remember his speak
ing in the log houses and the glorious songs
he used to sing.

ANTIOCH COLIEeE.-The next Academic
year of Antioch College commences Sep
tember 5th, 1860. It is expected that the
coming year will be an unusually prosper
GUS one, as the indications from all quarters
are more fattering than at any other period
in its history. These results follow, doubt
less, from the fact that the Institution is
now entirely free from debt and placed on
permanent basis, and presided over by one
of the most profound and learned men in
our country. It is a great satisfaction that
the College has been able to secure a man
who 50 vel. fills the place made vacant by
the death of Horace Mann. His scholarship
and scientific attainments are abundantly
testified toby the fact that his great popular
ity in the East made him prominent can
didate for the presidency of Harvard Uni
Versity.
