Your readers arc aware that Cincinnati
is the lArges, pork mArke, In the world
some are perhaps aware that It Is manu-
featuring city. Ii - to this fact that the
rapid growth OF Cincinnati Is mlinly to be
attributed. We have large trade with
the south and west, supplying them with
steam engines and machinery Ut all kinds ;
furniture, clothing, boots aud shoes, hats
aud caps, carriages, agricultural imple-
ments, soap, starrh, candles, tobacco, Sc,
all extensively manufactured here. Some
of our manufacturers employ 300 and 400
hands each. and all seem to increase their
business yearly. Our mercantile cominu-
nifty is also doing an extensive business.
Large wholesale establishments are daily
springing up in all branches of trade.
may perhaps give your readers an idea of
some Of our mercantile firms, aud the en-
tent of their business, by alluding 10 the
trade of one or more of them particularly.
We have here over one hundred firms en-.
gagged in the Wholesale grocery trade, ex-
elusive of fruit dealers, liquor importers,
&c.--many doing business that would
be considered large any where. One firm
has received this year per steamboats, from
New Orleans aud the plantations, direct,
1874 hhds. of sugar, averaging over 1000
pounds each, and 26,i50 bbls. of mollasscs.
In ihtse items, our sales are only second
To New-iork and New Orleans. MANY
other firms have purchased and sold nearly
as much. We have been able 10 supply
Buffalo, Detroit, and all the lake cities with
sugar and molasses at less prices than they
could buy in New-York. We have many
importing houses here, branches of large
European houses. Our city is Improving
IN building, and the style of its architec-
ture, more this season than ever before
Seven buildings are now being erected
within two squares of Third and Walnut
sts., that will cost, exclusive of ground
two hundred and forty-cight thousand dol
lars also, the Custom House and Trust
Company's Bank, now building, which will
cost as much more, all of free stone fronts,
five to six stories Highland not few of
them are owned by "live Yankees" But
enough of this sort. You will see in this |
hasty sketch, that we are some" if we are
sway eout West" We claim a popula- |
ton OF two hundred thousand souls, having I
more than doubled our business and popu-
lation within the last tea years.
Some of your Rutland boys are here,
and there is still room for more "a of the
same sort" Can no, some one come here
and establish an agency for your Slate and
Marble manufacturers and keep a stock
large enough to supply all the trade? Let
some one who has the capacity try it, and
he will make it pay.

mented and as harmonious as they ever were.
The great question which has disbanded and
scattered the northern and southern wings, has
served to draw more closely together and I'd
bind in firmer brotherhood the great body Of
northern and southern democrats.
1t has long been the boast of the democracy
that their noble creed is built on the Consti.
tuition. 1t has long been their boast that they
are the true friends of State rights and State
equality. Who will say that this, their claim,
has not been nobly vindicated in their course
on the trying question that has but recently
engaged the attention of the Senate, and is
now about to pass through more fiery ordeal
in the House of Representatives
Democracy will not tolerate sectionalism in
its creed. The rights of all sections are the
same under the Constitution, and on the OBJ.
servance of these common rights depends the
peace, harmony, and happiness OF, the whole.
SO long as the democratic party shall continue
true to its creed, so long will it tremain firm and
unbroken, so long will it Ego on conquering
and to conquer"

AN IMITATION.
thou hast crushed the rose

Ifthou hast crushed the rose
Whose graceful contour charmed thee
Its sweets will still return
In perfiimed air around thee;
But hast thou trampled on
Affections pure devotion,
No sweets will bless thy path "..
Upon ile's wintry ocean:
Nor caust thou thou think 10 win again
Loves diadem TO crown thee
Dost seek il mid gay pleasures depthsi
Waves of despair will drown thee
Hast thou the maple pierced,
Its honed store revealing!
IL pours its fountain forth
To enrich thine humble shealing;
But if 10 one true heart
A shaft Of pain thou'st driven.
No honey thence viii flow
To heal the gem thus riven:
And Nemesis will pay thee back
With interest secure,
Each bitter pang ofmisery
That heart was made endure.
Hast caused the tears to flow
From ewes with fondness beaming
Loves light will form them in bow
Thy careless word redeeming.
But il the souls deep fount
Hath gushed forth at thy feet,
If thou hast sought the offering
To spurn il as unmeet:
Relieve not earth will bring again
This coldly wasted treasure!
Thy hollow heart shall oehs with pain
For love that knew no measure

EUROPEAN AFAIRs.

The rejection by the czar of the propositions
contained in the late letter of the French EN-
peror, gives to European affairs a far more
menacing aspect than they have yet worn. 1t
is regarded as an extinguisher Of all hopes of
an amicable settlement of the matters in issue
between Russia and Turkey. Now shall we
see grim-visaged war" Europe will resound
with the clash Of arms and the clang of trum-
pets
England and France are making active
preparations, and fitting out formidable arma-
ments. The streets Of their large cities are
bristling with bayonets. The war is popular,
The people are jealous, and enlistments are
readily made. The London papers are as full
Of the Russo-T Turkish war as are the American
papers of the Nebraska bill. 1t is the great
absorbing theme. The debates in Parliament
and in the House Of Commons are becoming
excited and interesting.
The Londen Ne,os, Of the 2lst of February,
thus introduces long article: "The resumed
debate in the Commons, last night, on the
eastern question, presented slight shade of
novelty in so far as some speakers claimed the
attention Of the house as advocates of the
policy Of allowing the czar to have all his own
way. 1t has long been notorious that Russia
has emissaries in Turkey; we now find she has
advocates in the House of Commons. IRE
sponsibe as the czar is, he has secured mouth.
pieces among us, who unblushingly do all they
can to support him on his bood-stained march
towards Constantnople. Though he has
lighted the torch Of war in Europe he finds
men ready to back him in his work of blood
by crying out against all opposition to his
career. As the arguments of these sympa-
thisers with desposism, however, were totally
destitute of novelty-(mere rechaufes Of what
have repeatedly been served up in the Times
and the organs of Russia in the continental
press,) and as they we're, moreover, received
with great apathy by the House Of Commons,
we may dispense with any special notice of
them. We may best club them with the rest
of the class to which they belong in general
commentary
