BRiDGISG THE PoToMAc AT WASHINGTON.
Dir. Riyes, the civil engineer charged with
the duty of preparing plans and estimates for
new bridges over the Potomac, in the District
OF COLUMBIA, at the various points that have
been suggested-at the Long bridge site, the
Observatory point, on the piers Of the acaue-
duct, and at the Three Sisters-ir said to have
seat his report to the Secretary of the interior.
The Washington Star learns incidentally that
his recommendation is in favor of a bridge for
horse vehicles and foot passengers at the Long
bridgs, with a bridge to Accommodate a rail-
road, atthe acqueduct, Cat Georgeiown,) on the
present acqueduct piers. According to bis esti-
mates 1t will not cost more 10 build both these
proposed structures than to build a bridge that
will accommodate a railroad at the site Of the
Long bridge. He is said further 10 report that
while the railroad bridge at the Long bridge
site will require ten years for its construction,
both the other structures which be recommends
can be built in three years. The Secretary of
the Interior will probably at once send in to
Congress bis report, as it is absolutely neees-
sary, now that the Long bridge has been swept
away, hat something be promptly done.-BGL-

Our informant adds that the people in the

red hot masses Of rock thrown out. A heavy
