RAILROAD BRIDGE At RocKFogD.--
| Through the politeness of +. Willard
Smith, Esq, we have heen permitted to
look over the drawings for the bridge which
the Chicago and Gaiena Railroad Com
pany design to construct across the Rock
river, AT Rockford. The bridge will cross
the river Immediately above the dam owned
by the Joint Stock Company. 1t will be
built upon six stone piers, having the foun-
dation upon the solid rocky bed of the river.
There will be six spans Of one hundred
and ten feet each, and one span Of eighty
feet, making the entire length of the bridge,
exclusive of the approaches, seven hundred
and forty feet. The piers aud supersiruc-
ture will be carried to sufficient height to
place the track thirty four feet above high
water mark. The whole cost of the bridge
will be about S25 600; aud, when construc-
ted, viii doubtless he a source of pride to
our Rockford neighbors, as we'll as an or
