Etakefr from the Cincinnati Gazette

WE take from the Cincinnati Gazette
the following account of the great
railway bridge over the Ohioa at Louis
vile, which is expected to be ready
for trains by the LIST of November:
A bridge was projected over the Ohio at
this place in 1929. In 1896 a new charter
was granted, but it was not until 1862 and
1865 that the charter was obtained under
which the present company acts. In De
cember, 1866, subscriptions were solicited,
and by the following February 1922, SOC
had been obtained. The largest stock
holders are the Louisville and Nashville,
and the Jacksonville and indianapolis
Railways. The total cost of the bridge is
set down at a million and hall, and one
hundred thousand more for right OF way
and depot grounds. The length of the
bridge is 52SO feet, OF nearly a mile. 1t Is
supported by twenty-five massive piers.
The longest spanis over the middle chute,
and is SO feet. At this point the bridge
is qOL feet above low water mark. There
is a drawbridge over the canal of ll4H
feet clear span. The grade from the Ken
lucky side is 81 feet to the mile, the grade
on the Indiana side being nearly 70 feet.
A long and heavy embankment is neces-
sary on the west side of the river, and this
is nearly done. This bridge, in addition
to its railroad uses, Is built for street cars
and wagons, the suppOsition being that at
certain times Of the day-only o~ne-eighth
of the twentY-fHur hours-the railroad
trains will occupy the bridge, leaving it
free the rest of the time for Ordinay travel.
The estimates of this grand structure tell
the story Of what it is. The masonry cost
S476,9 62, the iron superstrueture S7I6,O90
etc, etc, the whole amounting to $780,
600.

THE Press and Times publishes as a
warning to ANDREW JOHNSON the
following dream Of a cOlored person,
which it denOminates reliable and
authentic" As Mr.. JOHNSON believes
in omens and dreams, and used to be
somewhat Of a climber on " Jacobs
Ladder " and is still looking upward
and spreading his wings, this dream
may serve him as well a another, in
the way Of warning, against coming
fiat down on the "yearth." Noallus-

THE German astronomer Mr.. TALB,
predicted some time since thai
the west coast of South Anne rics
would be destroyed about l 500 or 1871
by some frightful CONFUSION, earth.
quake or deluge of waters. The cOnse-
quence is that many of the towns Oh
the coast are being deserted, and the
people retreating inland for safety. A
gentleman who arrived from Valpa-
raise on the 29th ult., on the steamer
Limena, has furnished the following
interesting notes of his voyage, which
we take from the Panama Star and
Herald, of the 18th inst:
The Limena left Valparaiso on the 10th
of August and arrived at Caldera on the
18th, where upon inquiry we learned that
some verv severe shocks of Earthquake had
been felt at COpiapO, within the few days
preceding, causing much alarm. On the
evening of the I4th the steamer arrived at
Tocapilla, here we found the same fear
prevailing, and learned that on the night
of the 18th, at IOk o'clock, a severe shock
was felt; most of the residents had moved
to the interior. On arrival at Iquique, on
the afternoon of Sunday the 18th, the
same distressing story was told OF the an
ticipated destruction of the coast, most of
the people had left, and the city was quite
deserted.
On the 18th at liz. a long rolling sound
was heard, which lasted same seconds,
but there was no apparent motion of the
earth, but at a. m. on the 10Th a severe
shock was felt. We arrived at africa on
the 10Th at 7 o'clock; at 4 am. a seyere
shock was experienced at sea, which was
p~erceptibly felt on board the Limena, and
caused those who were awake to imagine
the vessel had struck. On arriving at Ar
lea we learned that the shock had been
terribly severe at 4 past 4 am; at 5 am.
a SECOND shock occurred; and at 9 am. a
third; but both Of the latter We're much
lighter than the preceding at AZ am.
During the days of the 18th, 18th and 18th
the time at which the first great calam-
ity was to take place-the people being
much frightened at the prophecies of he
wise ones, left the place and went back
upon the hills, but during these days no
troubles were felt. The whole coast is
rapidly losing its inhabitants, and in con-
sequence business of all descriptions is at
a S tand still.

county will determine the question
whether that absolute need will be
supplied, we are glad to say that the
signs indicate an adverse resultin that
county. Mr.. PENDLEToN bids fair to
have the eyes of the tax-ridden people
fully opened in due time to the fact
that negroism is quite too expensive
and an aggravation of their burdens.
1t is neither likely that Ohio will vote

ment will carry if she should.
