Can an expert, or any number of experts, say what is the limit of strength or endarance of any horse simply by know- ing his weight? It seems to me that these questions can be easily answered.

The bridge would he built of steel, except, of °aurae, the piers upon whiali it would rest, which would be from 1000 to 2,000 feet %part. From these atone piers vrould rise steel cylinderge upou. which the bridge would rest, the gooring being quite 180 feet above high tido meek, widths span being, oi course, the distance between the piers as given above. It ;le eatimeted that such a etructure would mit &bout 8180,000,000, that is million tone of steel Would, be need in its conatraction,axid thee it. could be built in about :ten years' time. Theplan of the engineers it; that it ehouldbe simply e railroad bridge orryiog two tracks, and that, to overcome the fear ot its nee in time 01 war, it might be arranged that the last spans at either end should be removable, so that the struoture would become useless to eery° the purposes of an invatdort. So far as safety10 con- cerned, after the various great engineering works of this oberaoter that heyebeen con - strutted, it number of the ablest men in the profession are willing to stake their vitiate tion on the statement that. it bridge of this hied could ,be pat up which would resist storms of all kinds, and be as safe me any ordinary railroad bridge. If is asserted that the proposed channel bridge would not be an obstruction to navigation, since ell vowels could easily pass under it, while the tendency of the swift current of the channel would be to carry vessele, not against the piers, but between these ob- structions. One adverse oritioisra that has been raised against this project is that the work of annually painting the struotnre to prevent its destruction by rust would entail it great outlay of time and money.
