seems most natural and convenient

of Cincinnati. Sketches are herewith
submitted, showing the location referred
TO, which it will be seen, fronts on Gen.
trail avenue, between Second and Pearl
street, one hundred and forty-four feet,
and extends westward to Park street,
giving ample room for its Union Depot

all our railways and remarkably acces-

propose to join with other companies in

venient Union Depot, wherein all may
acquire rights upon the basis of
original cost, either by joining in
the ownership or paying as rental a
fair interest upon the cost. To make
