INVENTION OF SUSPENSION BRIDGES

IN
By the Chinese 1000 years ago.
The most remarkable evidence of the
mechanical science and skill of the Chi
nese at this early period is TO be found in
their suspended bridges, the invention OF
the Han dynasty. According to the con-
current testimony Of their historical and
geographical writers, Shang-leang the
commander-in-chief of the army under
Keoutson, the first of the Hans, under
stood and completed the formation of
roads through the mountainous province
Shenise TO the west ofthe capital. Hith-
erto It's lofty hills and deep valleys had
rendered communication difficult and cir
cuitous. With body of 100000 labor
ers he cut passages over the mountains
throwing the removed soil into the VAL
leys, and where this was rot sufficient 10
raise the road to the required height he
constructed bridges which rested on pill
lars or abutments. In other places he
conceived and accomplished the daring
project of suspending bridge from one
mountain 10 another across 4 deep chasm.
These bridges which are called oy the
Chinese writers, very appropriately, fly
ing bridges and represented to be numer-
Gus at the present day, arc sometimes so
high that they cannot be traversed with
out alarm One still existing in Shenise
stretched 400 feet from mountain TO noun
tain, over a chasm of 500 feet. Most OF
these fying-bridges are SO wide, that four
horsemen can ride on them abreast, and
balustrades are placed on each side to
protect travellers. 1t is by no means i'm
probable las NJ. Panther suggests that
as the missionaries in China made known
the fact, more than century and a halt
ago, that the Chinese had suspended
bridges, and that many Of them were OF
iron, the hint may have been taken from
thence for similar constructions by Euro
pean engineers.-Hstory Of China.

WE'LL MEET AGAIN.

Well nee, again! how sweet the word
How soothing is il. sound!
Like strains Of lar-of music heard
On some enchonteS ground.
We'll meet again thus friendship sTcaks,
When those most dear depart,
And in the pleasing prospect seeks
A balm for the bleeding heart
Well meet again the lover cries,
And oh, what thought but this,
Can e'er assuage the agonics
OF the last parting Aiss'
Wen meet again are accents heard
Beside the dying bed,
When all the soul by grief is stirr'd,
And bitter tears are shed.
Well meet again! are words that cheer
While bending DER the tomb;
For oh that hope, so bright and dear,
Can pierce its deepest gloom.
We'll meet again! then cease to weep,
Whatever may divide
Nor time nor death can always keep
The loved ones from our side
For in the mansions Of tie blest
Secure from care and pain,
In Heavens serene and endless rest
Wen surely meet again!
