AMERICAN TELEGRAPH,
The Potomac Bridge.

A writer in the Intelligenoer is astonished that
the restoration Of the Potomac bridge has not
been urged by the citizens of Washington, who
are so deeply interested Even our City Coun-
ellis, he says, who are almost unanimous for the
repair of the old the building Of the new bridge
at the present site, have failed to make any re-
commendaton to Congress touching Immediately
ON this subject. The proposition to place the
bridge at or near the Observatory, he regards as
strange, and asks if it can be supposed that the
convenience, prosperity, and future prospects of
the metropolis Of the Union, with a population of
forty thousand, (which in ten years win be dou-
bled) are to be sacrificed to remedy what is be-
lieved by many to be an imaginary injury to a
small town of six or eight thousand inhabitants;
and if the citizens of Washington will submit
quietly to travel around by Georgetown in order
to get to Alexandria if they will, in fine, for a
hundred other reasons give their consent for the
removal ofthe bridge out of Washington, or place
it in situation to be almost out Of their reach
He declares it to be an error that the Long
Bridge has been the cause of the filing up of our
channel, and says he has the assurance of one of
the oldest and most intelligent steamboat cap
tains that within the last twenty years the Wash
ington channel has deepened several feet. u ...
This whole subject is important and that the
Committee on the District and Congress may be
enabled to act with decision, we think it is very
desirable that the views and wishes of our citi-
zens and of their authorities, should be promptly
and definitely made known, as also those of our
neighbors in Georgetown.

MIR. Whitney's Impersonations.

We were not so fortunate as to hear Mr.. Whit
ney last evening but we perceive that in the
Republic of this morning he is " damned with
faint praise" There is no doubt in our minds
of his great excellence in many Of his rectations,
but in his accuracy of imitation we do not always
believe. But the problem is simply whether such
performances will attract the sovereigns whether
furor can be gotten up in his favor; for with
out furor nothing can be done in the show line
nowadays. We wonder that lecturers on
astronomy and chemistry do not always carry
barrel-organs and phantasmagorias with them
Mr. Whitney will give another exhibition on
Monday evening. We think the crowd will find
him out
