For the Cresc en-
NeWOrleans and Jackson Railroad,

Can permanent railroad track be constructed through
Lake Pontcharrain?
The Lake has a maximum depth of eighteen feet Th,
depth is some five miles wide and the average deprh or
| each side of this channel way is twelve feet.
The pling upon which the Pontchartrain Railroad
track laid extending near half mile into the Lake
stood for twenty years without giving way in any
instance 1t is Of red cypress and has not decayed
was driven in water varying from three to nine feet and
was sunk some ten feet in the earth
Recently line of piles, 700 feet long has been
extended from the extremity of the old piling making the
whoe length OF railway pling in the Lake some two
thirds of mile This work reaches water about eleven
feet deep ut highest Hood, and sunk about the same
depth in the ground Perfectly fam end rqIle clan lotion
| has been Invariably obtained
There is, therefore, good reason to believe that t,, ~
may be extended indefinitely without serious difficulty
What would it cost to make the work substantial in
deep water and what should be the plan to resist tb
effects of waves?
xhs is question for the Engineers but not yerv diff
cult to be answered by practical mechanic We would
suggest
Let four lines of piles, IL by IL inches be driven feet
apart in line and securely tied Let the outer lines
be driven obliquey, nclnng inward fifteen twenty
degrees so as to brace in opposite directions when tied
the track-supporting piles Let the transverse line
piles range perfectly and all be placed dagonaly to the
line of the road track receive the waves gently
In is feet water piles of 40 feet would be required
in II feet water 80 feet piles They will cost delivered
along the line about 10 per linear foot The plies
may be driven for about dollars EACH and the ties
and srngers will cost about dollars for every trans
verse line of piles at five feet apart The laying imbers
Will cost about fifteen hundred dollars per mile and the
laying the iron about the same
Upon these hypothesis to prices the whole distance
across the Lake exclusive of the the iron would
be about s6lsooo or S2 600 per mile If the iron should
cost $4,000 per mile assumed this would give $50 600
for the cost per mile of the Lake portion road
But we have already that the assumed for the
cost OF fifty miles, around the Lake would give us some
SS6Oo per mile for the Lake portion the air line route
by this estimate We have about 100000 for contn
sencies and we save twenty miles time Of uear and
Of peril Of mosquitoes Of ialb1ous s,canp trasel for the
aiAions who must travel on this great highway
