ECCE HOMO. ECCE DEUS.
" To me it appears that each page of the book breathes out, as it proceeds, what we may call an air, which grows musical by degrees, and which, becoming more distinct even as it swells, takes form, as in due time we find, in the articulate conclusion, ' Surely, this is the Son of God; surely, this is the King of Heaven.'"-THE RIGHT HON. W. E. GLADSTONE.
Of "Ecce Deus," which may be considered the complement of "Ecce Homo," there are almost as many admirers, the sale of both books being nearly alike.

The suburbs of Cincinnati are so essentially a part of the city-their population having entire community of interest with the residents of the city proper-that a detailed description of them, in addition to allusions already made, would seem to have proper place in these pages. But to do justice to them would transcend the limits of this summary view, and the briefest mention only is here made, while the reader is referred to the interesting volume prepared by Sidney D. Maxwell, Esq., in which their beauties and attractions are fully set forth. They are a sylvan crown adorning the brow of the Queeu of the West.

THE CITY OF CINCINNATI.
AVONDALE
is a little east of north of the center of the city, at a distance of two miles and a half. Here are to be found the quiet and simple pleasures of rural life, remote from any thing to suggest the crowded, noisy, dusty city. The population of this village is not far from twelve hundred, and embraces many of the well-known citizens of Cincinnati.
CLIFTON
is the pride of Cincinnati. Its park-like grounds, its beautiful drives, its magnificent prospects, its splendid residences, make it a chief point of interest to tourists. Its charming retirement has been invaded by nothing in the shape of shop or store. Residences are here of palatial elegance and size, and surroundings which present every thing beautiful which taste and wealth can furnish.
COLLEGE HILL,
is five miles from the city limits, in a north-westerly direction. It is the seat of two widely-known institu- tions-Farmers College and the Ohio Female College. The Presbyterians and Episcopalians have excellent houses of worship. Within this village is one of the highest points of land in Hamilton County. Good schools, the best social elements, and religious privi- leges are the features of College Hill.
214
THE CITY OF CINCINNATI.
EAST WALNUT HILLS
is a little over three miles north-east of the Court- house in Cincinnati, and adjoins the village of Wood- burn. Here are some of the finest residences in the vicinity of the city, and landscape views which, in their variety and beauty, have no superior upon the Hudson or the Rhine. Hills, dales, and river combine to pre- sent to the eye a feast of which it never tires.
GLENDALE
is one of the most delightful suburban villages in the United States. It is north of Cincinnati, fifteen miles by rail and twelve by turnpike. The Glendale Female College is located here. The Presbyterians, Swedenbor- gians, and Episcopalians have flourishing churches, and the public school is of the first class. The quiet beauty and social advantages of this place are well known, and the evidences of taste, refinement, and wealth visible on every hand.
MOUNT AUBURN
is now almost wholly within the city limits. It has long enjoyed the reputation of being one of the chief attractions of Cincinnati. Residents here have all the enjoyment of rural life, at the same time being within easy reach of all the advantages which the city can offer. Several of the public charitable institutions are

located here, and the Mount Auburn Ladies' Institute affords unsurpassed educational facilities.
WALNUT HILLS,
now partly within the city limits, has long been famous as the seat of Lane Theological Seminary. A settle- ment was made here in 1791. It is easily accessible, and offers in its educational and religious advantages, one of the most desirable localities for residences in the neighborhood of Cincinnati.
WOODBURN
embraces about a section of land, and is two miles north-east of the Court-house in Cincinnati. Many of its beautiful building sites command extensive pros- pects of the most charming description. The village is controlled by a class of citizens whose administration contributes every thing necessary to its beauty and the comfort of the residents.
WYOMING,
about two miles south of Glendale, twelve miles from Cincinnati by rail, is a delightful suburb. Some of its building sites are unsurpassed in beauty, and command extensive views up and down the Millcreek valley, upon which the eye never ceases to dwell with pleasure.
Of other suburbs of Cincinnati which present many

points of rural beauty, Mount Washington, Linwood, Oakley, Fairmount, Spring Grove, Mount Harrison, Glen Grove, Riverside, Mount Airy, Mahketewah, and Hartwell, only the names can be here given.
A summary view has now been taken of the attrac- tions and advantages of Cincinnati, both as a place of trade and residence, with a glance at its institutions and internal improvements.
The comparison of its area with that of other Western cities, which are spread over a much larger territory, will show how much greater it will be, in statistics of population, when, like them, it embraces within munic- ipal limits all adjacent settled localities. Annexation is already the progressive watchword, and erelong the area will be largely increased.
The City moves forward in the steady march of im- provement, and Public Spirit points to the magnificent possibilities of coming years. Who shall define the limits of Cincinnati at its centennial, or calculate its increase in all the elements of a wealthy, populous, and powerful municipality ?

THE MOUNT AUBURN
YOUNG
ADIES' INSTITUTE.
Established 1856.
The advantages of this School are:
1. Its Location .- Within the city limits, it is only a half hour's drive distant from any of the Depots, and within easy call of the Telegraph Offices, Post-office, and Stores. But be- ing five hundred feet above the level of the river, it has none of the annoyances of the city. Surrounded by beautiful resi- dences, it looks out in every direction upon a delightful pros- pect, and is as free from intrusion as though it were in a quiet country village.
2. Its Home Influence .- The building used by the Boarding Department is entirely detached from the School House. Its rooms, each of which is designed to accommodate two young ladies, are large, and are furnished with a view to make them home-like. A Parlor, 50 by 40 feet, is devoted exclusively to the school. The discipline of the School is that of the family. It is the constant aim of those in charge to keep up the home feeling, to create an atmosphere of perfect material comfort, and then to administer a moral discipline inspired by love, and instructed by the law of Christ.
3. Its Extended and Comprehensive Course of Study .- The course of study runs through three departments, of four years each, insuring a continuous and symmetrical mental discip- line. The length of the course guarantees comprehensive- ness. The classical schedule comprises a list of the higher branches of study, which bears comparison with that of col- leges for young men.
4. The QUALITY of its Instruction .- No Instructors are employed but those who have either, by long experience, proved themselves apt to teach, or who have been trained in the School. To secure such, no expense has been spared.

The Cincinnati Chronicle,
DAILY AND WEEKLY, IS A FIRST-CLASS
Political and Family Newspaper.
Political Principles.
In politics the CHRONICLE is Republican, but not partisan ; never neutral, but always independent. Adhering to the principles of that great party under whose auspices the gallant soldiers of the Republic were led and cheered to victory over treason and armed rebellion, it none the less freely and independently discusses all political measures proposed for publie sanction, presenting the claims of party only as a means of promoting the good of the whole country.
Home and Foreign News.
As a news center for the entire Mississippi Valley, Cincinnati has no superior, and has facilities which defy competition from even the great commercial centers of the East. The latest news from all parts of the world to the hour of going to press, will be given from two days to one week in advance of the Eastern weeklies. The news from Europe by the ocean cable is published at the same moment in Cin- cinnati as in New York.
Literature, Science, and Art.
For the general reader we shall give each week a digested summary of Personal Items, Literary Intelligence, Notices of New Books and Magazines, Scientific Developments and Discoveries in Art. With each number will be given one or more domestic stories suited to the home circle.
Official Paper of City and County.
No newspaper ever started under as favorable auspices as the CHRON- ICLE. In the short space of twelve months, so popular had it become with the people, and so successful its management, that it was made the official paper, for doing both City and County advertising.
