The NEW SUsPEssIoS BRIDGE AT NIAeARx.-
The new suspension bridge at Niagara Falls,
which was opened to the public few days ago,
has the longest single span in the world. The
width of the chasm from cliff to cliff over the
Niagara river, is l,26s feet. The length of
the suspended portion of the roadway is l,240
feet. The, hight ef 1hes scSetrs of 'fbA roadway
above the water varies at e5 feet at high water
to 81 or 80 feet at low water The hight of the
water is ;mnch affected by the direction and
force of the wind. The floor is suspended from
two cables, formed of twisted wire ropes, seven
to each cable, one laid in the centre and the
others around it. The, cables are seven inches
in diameter, ceutain 93f single wires In each
ca able, and weigh 63s pounds per llneaa foot.
The cables are anchored in solid limestone, rock
on the Canadian side, and in solid masonry on

when it was first opened, and on Sunday Janu-
ary Sd, 10000 trips were made over it.
