Iron Bridge over the st. Lawrence

The Montreal Pilot says the work on
this bridge, called the 'Vic'oria Bridge
is rapidly progressing, and that it knows
Of nothing on the continents Of America
Of Europe which approaches it in the
grandeur and greatness its design.
It's total length will be 1924 feet, and
| from the north shore Of the St. Lawrence
to the abutment there will bea solid stone
embankment Of rough masonry 1900 feet
in length, raised like an artificial rock, to
resist The current. The stone embank-
ment leading from the south shore oil the E
river to the south abutment will be half
This length, or GOO feet. The first stone
was laid in the bed of the river on the
Gath ofJuly last and on the 18th instant
pier No. l was several feet above the Wa
Ter. The Pilot adds:
"Unless unforeseen difficulties ARISE me
first railway train will pass over Inc oroad
St. Lawrence by the summer OF lsos.-
The commercial advantages will consist in
the fact that the Victoria Bridge VIII bring
into direct communication, without break
ofgauge or bulk, the exhaustless products
of Canada West, and ofMichlgan,, ILLINOIS,
Iowa, Wisconsin, and all the Western
States Of the Union. Reciprocity will
have opened the door ofinternal commun i!
cation, and the requirements Of traffic will
be cheaply and expeditiousIy met oy Inc
iron road and its tubular bridge. A few
years hence, and this very bridge will be-
come one Of the greatest attractions TO The
tourist and the traveller.
"The COLOSSUS ofRhodes, under which
the pigmy shallops of former ages could
pass, was esteemed one Of the wonders o.
the Old World: but an iron bridge spanning
a river two miles in width, giving safe pas
sage to hundred oil tons ofweight between
lis iron sides, and permitting ships o! the
largest tonnage to pass beneath its elevated
arches, is an achievement still more re-
markable for TIE New World, and is wor-
thy of the young giant rising in the
West.o
