The Queen City is the euphonious
name by which the new Cincinnati
packet will be known, and in the selec-
tion of Cincinnati is a second time
honored. When the construction OF
the boat was, of necessity, given to the

The name is pretty one, however, and
the officers of the company say they
will not forget Pittsburg when they
build another boat.-Pittsburg Post
