The BROOKLYN Bridge.

After about fourteen, years hard
labor the great suspension bridge be-
tween New York and Brooklyn has
been completed, and thus two large
cities connected in manner which
was never dreamedlof in Revolution
ary times. 1t is indeed the browning
work of the century, and can be clas-
sed among the wonders of this coun
try. The suspension bridges at Mag
ara Falls and over the Ohio river at
Cincinnati, are merely foot bridges in
comparison with it. Its dimensions,
history and cost are familiar to all
readers of the daily papers, and dc
not need to be repeated; but we dc
wish to speak of PERUNA, the great

Systematic Roadmaking.

A correspondent on the Country
Gentleman. writing from Duches.
county, New York, says that the
town of Armenia, in that county, has
tried with marked success the plan OF
keeping force of four or five men at
work on the highways through most
of the year under the supervision oil
an experienced and skilled builder OF
roads, who gives his attention coz.
stantly to the work. Every part OF
the seventy-five miles of highway in
the town is in good condition, and
the expense of keeping it so has been
much less than it could have been by
the old method. The new plan has
greatly relieved the farmers, who
have not been called to work on the
roads at time when other duties de
manded their attention. New York
has law which directs that the vO-
tiers of any town may elect to adopt
this plan of hiring a force of men and
competent commissioner to make
and keep in repair the roads of their
town, but the plan once adoDted must
be followed for not less than three
years. 1t has been found that by the
method described the roads have
been kept in better condition than
ever before. and that the cost of the
work has actually been less than that
of roadmaking by the old way.

The MORNING HERALD.
FOR 1884.

THE MORNING HERALD for 1854 will be the
of Baltimore. 1t willalS0 be the best. While
it will make a specially of local and State
news, it claims the world for its field, and each
issue of the THE MoRNISG HERALD will be a
complete and compact history of the events
OF the previous day. The story will be told
entertainingly, and while it will not be long
enough to tire you it will not be TOO short to
be interesting. 1t will be spicy but never yul-
gar. 1t will not pander toprurient tastes. but
will be pre-em inenty paper for the business
man and his family. No man will be COM
PEELED to read THE MORNING HERALD before
taking IL home, in order to make sure that 1T
contains no matt err unfit forithe eye ofwomen'
and children. It's editors will save him that
trouble by Keeping these objectionable fea-
lures out of the paper altogether. THE NORM
ING HERALD will be, as in the past, Republic
can in politics; it believes i'll the protection
OF American labor and will earnestly oppose
any effort to abolish the tariff, which has done
so much to build up the industries OF our coun-
try; it is under no obligations to any corpor-
alton; its editorial columns are under no con-
troll save that of its editor, and when The
MORNING HERALD has any opinion to express,
ii expresses il fearlessly and in language suffi-
GENTLY plain to be understood by everybody.
THE MORNING HERALD will be honest In
opinion as in everything else and partytealty
Will not prevent it from exposing any rascal
ity or condemning any unwise and imoroper
acts. THE MORNING HERALD will appear
about January fst in complete new dress of
type, which we believe will make il by long
odds the handsomest newspaper in Baltimore
and as handsome as any paper in the country.
