Do IT WELL.-Whateve you do, do it
we'll. A job sighted, because it is appa-
rently unimportant, leads to habitual neg
lect, so that men degenerate, insensibly,
into bad wcrkmen.
"That is good rough job" said fore
man in our hearing, and he meant that it
was piece of work, not elegant in itself,
but strongly made, and well put together.
Training the hand and eye to do work
well, leads individuals to form correct
habits in other respects, and good work
man is, il most cases, good citizen. No
one need hope to rise above his present
situation, who suffers small things to pass
by unimproved, or who neglects, meta
phorically speaking, to pick up cent
because it is not dollar.
Some of the wisest lawmakers, the best
statesmen, the most gifted artists, the most
merciful judges, the most ingenious me-
chanics, rose from the great mass
A rival to a certain lawyer sought to
humiliate him pufiicly, by saying, You
BACKED my fathers boots once" Yes"
replied the lawyer, unabashed, "and did
it we'll" And by his habit of doing even
little things well, he rose to greater.
Take heart, all who toll, all youths in
humble situations, all in adverse circum-
stances. If it be but to drive the pillow,
strive TO Go it well if only to cut bolts,
make good ones; or to blow the bellows,
keep the iron not. II Is attention to bust
ness that lifts the feet high up on the lao

Noble EOuity.

Some time last year Mr.. JOHN p. BROWN, OF
Petersburg Va, insured his life for S9 600 In the
EQUITABLE LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY OF THE
UNITED STATES, 90 Broadway, New YORK, OF
which Colonel WILLIAM c. ALEXANDER Is presi-
dent and j. HORACE LACY, OF Fredericksburg, Is
general agent for Virginia, and j. IL. MONTAGUE
for Richmond
The policy, as usual, prescribed geographical
limits These Mr.. BROWN transcended, igno-
rantly, by travelling beyond them, and died in New
Mexico by disease contracted In violating the ex-
press conditions of his policy. This relieved the
Society from all legal claim. But the widow, re-
duced by the caamities Of war from comfort to
want, struggling to support by her laborsi small
children paid two quarterly premiums on her hus-
bands policy, believing that he was protected by
its provisions. The Society though relieved of all
legal claim recognized II as an equitable one, and
have generously paid the widow the policy. See

GREAT BRIDGE OVER TIE OHIO RIVER
The iron railway bridge now in course OF
construction between Louisville, KY, and
Jeffcrsonyille, Ind, will be just one mile
in length. 1t will have twenty-four spans.
Two of these will be $40 feet each, and six
245.5 feet each. Excepting on the longest
spans, the rails will be placed on the tops
of the girders, these being Of the class
known as the Fink truss. A description of
the truss is here quoted from paper on
american Iron Bridges" read by Mr..
Colburn before the London Institution OF
Civil Engineers " In this bridge pair OF
diagonal tension bars connect the foot of
the principal strut or king post in each
truss with the ends. of the top chord. This
pair of diagonal bars supports one OF the
whole weight Of the truss and its load.
Each half span is sub-diyided by strut,
and two diagonal tension bars extend, one to
the nearest end of the top chord, and the
other to the top of the centre post. Each
quarter span is again sbb-diVided into
eighths, and these again, for spans greater
than 100 feet, into siXteenths. In truss
of this kind, having sixteen panels, the
weight of the bottom of the strut nearest to
either of the piers is distributed ss follows :
Calling the weight one, one-half is trans
terred directly through tension rod to the
nearest end of the top chord; and thus upon
the pier. The other half is carried to the
top of the second strut from the pier, and Is
received at the bottom of that strut by q
pair of tension rods, which sub-divide this
half between them, one-fourth being taken
- tAo pia q no
fourth is transferred to the top OF the strut
at the quarter span. This fourth is again
sub-divided at the foot Of this strut, one
eighth being transmitted through tension
rod to the nearest pier, while the other
eighth passes to the top of the middle strut
of the whole span, and is received at the
foot of this strut by the main ten
sion rods, which thus transmit one
sixteenth of the original load to each
pier. Thus the weight at the foot OF
the first strut from the end OF the
truss is distributed as follows One-halt,
one-fourth, one-eighth, one-sixteenth, or IN
all ffteen-sixteenths Of that weight reach
the top of the nearest pier through four
converging sets Of tension rods, while the
remaining sixteenth reaches the opposite
pier, after having been first brought to the
foot of the centre strut through the inter
vention of three separate systems of tension
bars. With the exception Of the load at
the foot of the centre strut, which load IS
transmitted directly to the piers, the loads
at the bottom of the vertical struts are
more or less sub-divided in the manner just
described before reaching the ends OF the
truss.n The estimated cost of this bridge,
which is to be completed by September l,
1869, is 81 100000.
