II The grea, bridge to span the Mis-

u The great bridge to span the Mis-.
sissippi river to this point, is in rapid pro.
gress of construction. The crib upon
which the draw rests is a stupendous
work. Some idea of the magnitude OF
the entire Undertaking may be formed
from a description of the crib, as we find
it given in a n~eighboring paper. II is
500 fee. long and 40 feet wide and re-
quires in its construction one million feet
of lumber and sixteen thousand yards OF
rock to fill il. The estimate cos, of the
crib alone is $4,000. The contractors
think lkey will have this immense work
completed so tina. The cars will be en-
ablec to cross in the month of January
next. Ii will be a proud day for Davsn
port and the commencement Of a new
era in Iowa. when the iron ribs of pro-
gress shall bind the shores OF the great
Mississippi and the steam horse cross
high above its waves, TO be stopped in its
career westward only by the weters Of
