To him and his fine horse and buggy

we had of Cleveland and its surround

Among the beautiful features of
Cleveland are the Square" with Per-

churches--none of which will time or

city. Ths principal part of it 10 situated
on hill some two hundred feet above
the level of the lake. The streets are
generally very wide, affording ample
room for ordinary vehicles on either
side of the street railroad tracks, with
sidewalks and a wide grass spot between
the sidewalks and the street. The bust
ness portion is well and compactly built,
chiefly of brick, with an occasional
stone-front We were somewhat sur
prised that there are so few stons-fronts,
in view of such vast quarries of fine
stonein the immediate vicinity. ar *
The private residences along Superb
or, Euclid and Prospect streets are
almost regal in their size and magni6-
csnce, and many Of them ars not sur
passed any where west of New York.
Much attention has been given TO the
cultivation of shade trees, and Cleveland
is justly styled the Forest City. ~ The
streets in the business part of the town,
and down under the hill, are paved With
rock, and are very fine and permanent
The steep declivity to the Cuyshoga
river is built up with houses of an infe-
rior quality, and does not present an
agreeable appearance. The railroad
depots, which are already quite extern
sive, are built on ground reclaimed from
the lake--the whole of the space beneath
the hill, extending out nearly mile in
length, and nearly half q mile in
width, has thus been, built, 6rst by
spiling and then filing up, ending out
in theslake with q magnificent pier.
AS you ascend the hill from the depot,
you have magnificent view of this
great and beautiful lake, this min-
iaturs ocean, giving one born and reared
remote from the sea a very fair coneep-
ton of the dark and deep blue ocean
and when the wild winds sweep down

We had nine coaches in our train, and
all Of them were packed fall, and all
the trains we met seemed equally ms

We had a travelling companion from

him very pleasant company. In that
part of the country over which we pass

poor, and much grain, and hay has been
destroyed by the surcharge rain, which
seems to have been universal ! 10 as
As we approach Cleveland, we see
some very nice farms, but the corn crop
is almost invariably failure, and much
grass is still unmown. There is no frnit
