An ACQUISITION for Cincinnati.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
The arrival in Cincinnati, Friday last,
of John King, Jun, Nice-Presldent OF
the Baltimore and Ohio Road, and ac-
tive manager ol its Western lines, Is an
event Of no small Importance TO Clncln-
natl. \ gentleman of culture and broad
experience, his coming will be welcomed
bv those who may be so fortunate as to
make his acquaintance. A railroad
manager second TO few, ii any, in the
land, the influence OF his presence and
ability must add materially To the coliec-
ton OF talent which Cincinnati already
boasts. and the active representative OF
a line OF railroads stretching nearly hall
way across the continent, his location
here virtually makes Cincinnati the
headquarters of one OF the greatest rail-
road systems of the country. Already
the headquarters OF the Ohio and Miss
issippi-a road, with its branches, of
over six hundred mi,eS-have been or
dered removed to this point, and beside
this the coming OF Mr.. King, who has
for wears been the active manager OF all
the Baltimore and Ohio lines west OF the
Ohio River, will virtually bring hithcr
the headquarters of this entire Western
system. The effect OF this upon the
business interests OF the city can scarce
IL be appreciated. The coming of the
Headquarters OF the Ohio and MlSSis-
sippi alone will bring to the city an ar
nv OF employees numbering, with their
families, probably five hundred people.
The expenditures of this road last year
were nearly ;, 100000. While much OF
this is distributed along the line OF the
road a very large proportion goes Tor
supplies. payment OF employees at the
general headquarters, &c, and the re-
Sult will naturally be that much OF the
money expended in purchase OF supplies
and for the other purposes mentioned
will be expended IN Cincinnati. The
lines controlled by the Baltimore and
Ohio i'm the West are in length probably
fifteen hundred miles The bringing TO
a single city of the headquarters OF so
many miles of railroad can but have a
marked effect upon its business. But
the effect should not end with this.
The railroads Ccnterlng IN Cincinnati
are in length nearly five thousand miles.
Their cost has been more than SSOO,OOO,
600. and i'm the transaction of their buSl-
ness they dispense annually nearly 500
600 900. Could the headquarters OF
these twelve railroads centering here be
brought To Cincinnati. the effect upon
her business would be beyond present
estimate. With one OF the greatest rail
road men in the country added to Gin
cinnati's already long list fnoted names
i'm railroad circles, the combined strength
should prove sufficient to draw hither
the heads of all the railroads running in
TO the city, and with them the mutual
benefits to themselves and 10 the city,
which would result from the making OF
the Queen CITY the greatest railroad cen
ter. intellectually and financially, in the
Great West.

Standards The Constitution was the

best that could then be made, and was,
rs nearly rs possible, an exact repreSen-

though it satisfied nobody entirely. IL

was the genuine and legitimate work OF
the race which produced it. 1t could be
indefinitely supplemented by unwrltten
law. SO dear 10 the hearts OF the English
people, who then tried their trst exper-
iment with a written constitution. In
one word, it solved the problem, was
practical success, and has performed the
work for which it was devised. IL is on
this account that Americans venerate
the Constitution, and esteem 1t fault
less masterpiece and not because they
think it an ideally perfect plan, such as
comes fresh from the head OF the last
Spcculator on government. The only
test oi Il constitution Is success. The I'M
written constitution of England and the
written one Of the United States have
succeeded where all others have failed,
and they are, therefore, great achieve
mentS. They demonstrate the political
sagacity OF their authors, and the people
who live under them would be false to
