CINCINNATI. It Lays Claim to Being the City of schools. Some of Its Magnificent cational Institutions. Hdu- The Hillsido Renorts and Peculinr- itios of the Place mdence of the Omaha I ¥ Cixersyatrt, September 10, —After nes Time has nlso worked its wondrous chang four years absenco Cincinnati and sights again surround me. hero as elsewhere, Massive businoes blocks and palatial private residences have been erccted, adding to the city's attractions, and which justly imvyress the stranger with the fact that a city of wealth and power. 1t is true that the sceptre parted from Cincinnati as regards pop- ulation —that in this particular both Chicago and St. Louis have outstrip- ped her in the race for commercial supremacy—yet fc sources she claims precedence overboth her rivals, special notice and attention are not based upon the centered here—-not upon her mam+ moth business establishments, her factories, founderies, her forges and furnaces.

If time and opportunity afford will, in a future correspondence devote con- siderable space to this subje One thing stands out most wously in tho history and ca Cincinnati. holds w her bo number of public sp hearted philan- thropic citizens than any city upon the face of th rth, H high schools received their first ondowment, which made their contmuance and great success a wsibility from private generosity, There gentlemen Woodward and Hughes--were pos- sessed but of moderate means——were of humble origin and situation, but gavo their all for the public good and welfare. Their example in more recent times has been gradually imitated by the great princes of wealth who now flourish in this city. Some twenty- five years ago a Mr. McMicken gave all his property—a full round million of dollars —for the founding of u freo university, and the child of the hun blest laborer or mechanic liere en the fullest and amplest educatio without cost and without price In more recent years a Reuben Springer donates a quarter of a mil- lion for amusic hall, a Probasco $160,- 000 for the most beautiful fountain to be seen in two hemispheres, a West a like amount for an art museum that is destined to eclipse the famous col- lections to be found in Paris and Lon- don. Thus the bounty of the citizen supplemented by public aid and en- couragement, is giving to Cincinnati a name and fame as the ‘‘Paris of America.” Her objects of interest and attraction to the stranger far ex- ceed and excel those of any other place, and they who give this city a vigit are unstivted in the praise and enco.iums bestowed upon it, Cincinnati’s suburbs are, without exception, the loveliest in existence. Beautified by nature and art, paradise itself would seem to have been realized here. Village vies with village, and Clifton, Avondale, Mt. Auburn, East and West Walnut Hills, Riverside, College Hill, and other out-lying sub- urbs, where the aristocracy of wealth, refinement and culture abide, thrill the soil with delight and ecstacy as we wind in and out, through and among them, The smoothest lawns, the most charming flower beds, the greatast variety of of shrubbery, and the richest. ravest statuary here abound in a profusion and abusdance that remindthe visitor of oriental splendor and magnificence, Spacious grounds, gravel walks, flanked with rows of stately trees, botanic gardens, sylvan nooks and dells, embowered arbors and the cos- iest of secluded retreats from a pano- ramic scene that is never effaced and ever recalled with raptures of delight. The grand and lofty mansion, where dwells the man of millions, is neigh- bor to the timest of cottage homes, almost wholly concealed from view by clustering vines and the umbrageous foliage of encircling trees. Every variety of architecture is observable, and the scene thus becomes one of endless change and attractiveness. Amusements of a kind and charac- ter unknown to other cities, give to Cincinnati a distinetion that s “sui generis.” First come tho hill- top reeorts—several in number crowning the most elevated points of land on three sides of the city, v north, east and west, the Ohio river forming the south boundary. These resorts are large gardens—large enough to be called parks—beautiful- ly improved, their sloping sides ter- raced off in the handsomest style and manner. To these places the city's population below the hills, comprising the great mass of the remdents, flock for airing, comfort, amusement and entertainment during the heated period, Gambrinus presides undis- puted king here, and music bands, trained and skilled to highest excel- lence, discourse choicest and sweetest strains of melody to which all give rapt attention, The intervals be- tween the playing afford chance for the quafling of the popular beverage, and thequantity consumed brings joy to the heart and gold to the purses of the proprietors, Except on particu- k) will assemble, old comrades in Jr_.u will greet enbh otheF, and asbo- THE OMATIA DAILY BEE: TUE when extra entertain wided, the admis lar oceasions, ments have been sion to the favorite rescrts is frec They are in “full blast” every night, and Sundays-—the latter being the harvest season for rich returns to the owners and manager The lovers of tae best ry nationality and overy degree of the social seale, throng thi it numbers her in Ihe ty to sixty members to each band, led and dircoted by the highest akill and wledge.

T wish to speak of one street in this locality, Vine street from the afore-men one viz tioned canal for a distance of five blocks. No similar locality is to be found anywhere in the wide world. On both sides of this street for the distance of five blocks noething but theatres, concert halls, beer gardeus, variety shows and saloons, are to be geen. Several of these beer halls can comfortably accommodate two to three thousand people. This strect is niways thronged at evenings, but is liveliest and preseuts the gayest ap- pearance on Saturday nights. Then everybody is sceking amusements l\nfl pleasure, and a perfect jam is the usual condition of this por- tion of Vine street on these nights, Calcium lights, electric lights, and lights from thousands of gas jets, make bright as day this great avenue of the city. The surg- ing maes of peoplo move to and fro, but perfect order provails, for all can see as though it were day, and night is thus rabbed of half its terrors. Many of the places of amusement in this lc make no charge for ad- 1ission—others have prices of admis- sion ranging from 10 to 50 cents. This brings theatrical entortainments with- in the reach of the poorer classes, and the vast patronage received has amply rewarded those who inaugurated the movement, The zoological garden also attracts visitors in the city. Hereis to bo found a great collection of wild ani- whose native homes were in zone and country. Last Sunday afternoon T went to a place called Inwood Park, where a kind of a tion was going on in honor of Hecker's memory, one of the leaders of the German revolution of 1848, The grounds wero always night fully twenty-five thousand peo- ple must haveattended. Music, sing- ing, speech-making, dancing, eating and drinking wore the means prepared for social pleasure and pastime.

All these fortifications have become important facts to reckon. The author or the article, in acknowl- edging the great value of these fortifi- tions, willngly expressed his admira tion that France, which was go deeply dopressed in 1871, is now enabled to sond an army of more than a million men into the field, and that she has completed such great works for her defense, Phese results have only been gained by the patriotism of the tion, for all partics are struggling cach other in all home questions, are perfectly united in all matters which concern foreign affairs, The author concludes his article with the earnest request that his countrymen should imitate the ex- ample of the French and show the same patriotism. P Monopoliesin Politics. New York Graphic An important section of the demo- cratic party in this state (Tammann nd Trving Halls) has declared iy favor of the people in the coming fight against the encroachments of corporate monopolies, and it now re- mains to be seen what the committee of one hundred will do, Tt is under- stood that a majority of the ieading spirits in that orgamization with rail- roads is well known, as is that of Messrs, Cooper, Hewitt & Co. Cor- poration Counsel Whitney is a son-in- law of Mr. Payne, of Standard Oil Company notoriety, The monopoly democratic Jenators Hogan, See- bacher and esine have all flutter- od down on that side of the fence, and yet we venture the assertion that nine-tenths of the rank and file of this faction are anti-monopolists at heart, and it remains to be seen whether they will consent to be led by these false prophets. The republi- cans, too, would do well to not forget this important issue. A careful selec- tion of candidates who are free from corporate afliliations will this year ob- tain many independent votes, and the party cannot again afford to send an- other monopoly senate to Albany. When democrats reproach the repub- lican party for refusing to pass meas- ures recommended by the republican Hepburn committee — conservative measures in the interest of tne whole people, to which the party by its plat- form and Governor Cornell's utter- ances was plainly pledged—it is time that it did something to break the veto power which Mr. Vanderbilt has held upon legislation at Albany. The republicans of this state can better afford to get along without the serv- ices of Depew and Vanderbilt’s money than with them. whole French r in France, t bitterly against Socond Edition of Job.

B. Fortifloations in Frauce: London Times. The official Militar Wochenblatt publishes in its latest number an arti- cle about the fortifications of Paris, in which it is stated that, by the com- pletion of this work, Paris has become a nost formidable fortress, and that thereby all the disadvantages that had arisen from the advance of the Ger- man frontier to the west have been annulled. For Paris will now beable to defend the centre as well as the west and south of France. At all events, it is certain that no future invader will be able to establish his advance posts in those districts in which, during the siege of 1870, the German reserve troops were quar- tered. The commander:in-chief of Paris will then have to defend a ter- ritory of more than 200 German square miles, and he will be enabled to make great sorties, by which the besioger may be surprised in such a way s to render it impossible for him to collect the necessary troops for ro- pulsing such a violent attack, The chances of a successful siege of Paris are, therefore, very small, and all the more 80 as in the future certainly not more than a corps of line troops will have to defend Paris, as was the case in the war of 1870. It is altogether very doubtful whether it would in fu- ture be possible to blockade Paris completely, even with the help of sev- eral great armiss connectod with each other by cavalry divisions, On the other hand, the dofense of the French capital will also be of a very different task, and the genius of a stratogist of the first rank will be needed for the fulfillment of such an enterprise, which must be planned and executed on a very grum\ scale, The capacity of a Gambetta, who boasted of being able to *‘organize the vietory,"” will scarcely be suflicient for this purpose. The Germans may at L;resun: console themselves with the nowledge that such a hero does not exist as yet i France, and the Fronch would cértainly commit a great blun- derif they fanciod that they possessod in the now completed fortifications of Paris a guarantee against the possi- bility of ever again seeing their capital conquered, In a future war, France will, of course, take good care to con- contrate her military force in good time, and the headquarters of Amiens, Rouen, Le Mans, and Orleans alone will be able to mobilize more than 100,000 men of line troops and 200,- men of territorial army, and to send them to the east frontier. Tn order to advance into the heart of France, it will therefore not only be necessary to open a way through the strong for- tifications by which the whole eastern frontier has been strengthened, Besides the fortifications of Langres and Besancon, La Fere and Rheims, Toul and Verdun, besidesthose which have been erected near Navy for the protection ot the Moselle, and those of the northeastorn frontier for the protection of the Mouse, strong works to defeat these large armies, but also | " landly préclaim’their praise for this wonderful discovery to which they owe their lives.
