RELIEF UNION .- The Cincinnati Relief Union is supported | which is shown in the engraving, was constructed expressly for entirely by voluntary contributions. It has a Finance Court of ' the Company, and is of the following dimensions : Length, 35 fect; width, 1212 fect; height, 71% feet. It is constructed of five alternate plates of iron and steel, and contains no less than 3,870 small safes, or drawers, each provided with a separate and special lock and key. The rent of the drawers varies according to size, the maximum being $50, and the minimum $20 a year. A room, with all the necessary accommodations, is provided for the rent- ers. Transient depositors have also abundant facilities for plac- ing deposits of valuable property in papers, moncy, bonds, deeds or jewelry in the safes, and it has been largely used by this class of customers. Bonds are also taken for safe keeping upon the merest trifle of a percentage. For all these purposes the safe, with the conveniences and absolute security it affords, has been
7, and a Board of Managers, or distributors, of 2 in each ward, who make personal calls on every one asking aid. This Union was organized (partially) about 30 years ago by the late John Whetstone, Griffin Taylor, and others, but did only a limited work with $2,000 or $3,000 a year, until the breaking out of the late war, when the late C. W. Starbuck and others, desiring to aid soldiers' families, took hold of it, and collected yearly, ever since, from $12,000 to $40,000 per year, and placed it at the dis- posal of the distributors. The distributors meet weekly in the Winter season, and semi-monthly in Summer. During later years these voluntary charities have been limited to widows and families, and sick persons and families, as the collections are not so large as during or immediately after the war. The funds, in the way of shoes, flannel, muslin, groceries, etc., are distributed without regard to nation, color, or religion. Especial effort is made to aid children in attending school. An office is furnished the Relief Union in the City Build- ings. Hon. R. B. Moore is President, and S. S. Davis, Treasurer.
REMINGTON .- A picturesquely situated village on the Marietta & Cincinnati Railroad, twenty miles from Cincinnati; about 150 inhabitants.
RESTAURANTS .- The business portion of the City is well supplied with restaurants, many of which are never closed. The second class establishments, where dinners are given for thirty-five or forty cents, including wine, appear to receive the largest patronage. The numerous cheap houses, where all meals are sold at fifteen cents are also well patronized, as is evidenced by their daily increasing number. The patronage heretofore so liberally extended to the first class. or high-priced restaurants, has gradually fallen off since club life has become popular, and such restaurants are now generally in connection with the first-class hotels. The establishments of this character that keep open all night, generally do a large business.
RIVER PACKETS (Sec Mailboat and Packet Lincs).
RIVERSIDE .- Naturally a beautitul locality, extending along the Ohio river, and divided into three stations-Riverside, South- side and Anderson's Ferry. Riverside is also on the I. C. & L. and Cincinnati and Chicago Railroad, 4 miles from the City. There are some large maufactories and a handsome Protestant Episcopal Church. It is connected by street cars with the City. On the heights overlooking the river banks, there are a number of fine residences, chiefly owned by merchants doing business in Cincinnati, and among them one of the most extensive and beauti- ful is that of Mr. Hermann Duhme, the well known manufacturing jeweler of this city. The grounds embrace about 90 acres all under a high state of cultivation. A large area is laid out in vineyards, orchards and flower gardens. Mr. Duhme also de- votes some attention to stock raising, and has on the farm a num- ber of thorough breds which have gained a wide reputation. The mansion is plain and substantial, and without making any pre- tensions is comfortable and convenient. The views from this point arc beautiful. It is about eight miles from the City, and reached by a very pretty drive.
SACRED HEART .- The Convent of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart, at Clifton, is a large building, garlanded with ivy and other creepers, and standing in the center of spacious and beau- tiful grounds. The Sisters devote themselves to teaching, and the best attainable education, including languages and the ae- complishments, is given to all young ladies placed under their care, irrespective of faith or creed. No attempt is made to prose- lytize.
