main bridge a few days ago they
kindly left a ladder set uj at
east end whereby visiters an: euribled
to got up on the bridge and
inspect the work. The voder is
covered by throe spans, ? f about
120 feet each, resting on four pairs
of steel cylinders tilled with ?>:icrete?two
pairs in the wafer ai .l
one pair on each bank. Tin flo r
of each spun is laid of <> by " lumber
on seven stringers, which urn
supported ut proper inter*.lis by
cross beams, and th' ae are in turn
supported by u suspension frame
??uiiv 01 Bieci and irun, which forms
an open system of augi ;s conned .*d
above the bridge by other steul
work, bo as to present to view
something like a skeleton of a
frame for a perfect covering.
Loads of 12 or 3d feel in height
can pass under this framing. The
whole structure is pleasing to the
sight. Painters have covered iron
and steel and the banister with a
dull red coat. Pluffs of snliieient
height on each side of the liver
seem to guarantee crossing at any
time after the wooden approaches
are built. Those ure now being
framed at Hickory, N, C., and are
expected to be in place within two
or three weeks.
The situation of the bridge is
not without some pleasing features.

, that unless it is extended by Coui
