CITY AND SUBURBAN.
NEW BRIDGE OVER THE OHIO.
Fine Structure Crossing the stream nc Point
Pleasant. W. Va.

'hhcture Crossing the stream at Point
Pleasant. W. Va.
Colonel II. d. Whitcomb, who has
recently returned from the West, re-
ports that the new iron bridge over the
Ohlo river on the line Of the River
division Of the Ohio Central railroad at
Point Pleasant, W. Va, was tested on
Tuesday, 24lh instant. and opened for
traffic on the 25th. This bridge,
with Its iron-trestle approaches, is
about 5000 feet long. The river is
crossed with five spans resting on
masonry piers.
The channel span is i20 feet. Three
other spans are $50 feet each, and one
is 200 feet. The iron trestles have
spans of 80 feet. except in crossing
streets of Point Pleasant, where they
are 60 feet. All compression members
OF the bridge are steel; the tension
members are Of wire. The river spans
are all through" OF Oyer-grade, the
chords being 90 feet above low water
in the river.
The shorter spans were tested with a
locomotive weighing, with tender,
10000 pounds and seven cars loaded
with twenty tons Of coal. The de-
Election under the load was nearly one
inch. The channel span was tested
with five locomotives weighing 10000
pounds each and coal cars loaded as be-
fore, total as nearly as could be as
certained Of $4,000 pounds. The de-
Election Of this long span under this
load was two and five eighths inches.
After the load was removed the span
rose to within one fourth of an inch of
its original Gambler.
The test was considered entirely sat
isfactory, although not so heavy as the
contract called for.
The steel and iron superstructure
was built by the Keystone Bridge Com
pany Of Pittsburgh. The chief en-
ginoer is Mr.. j. NJ. Seymour, of New
York. His assistant was Colonel w.
NJ. Patton, recently professor of en-
gineering at Virginia Military Institute.
The bridge is much admired for its
massive masonry and the strength and
proportions Of the superstructure. 1t
is designed for the heaviest locomotives
now used, and is undoubtedly one of
the finest bridges yet constructed over
the Ohio.
The parts Of the River division east
and west of Ohio are now permanently
connected, and the kanawha Valley has
rail connection by very direct route
with the Northwest.

Madame Camilla Ur-o's Concert.

Last night a thin house came out to
the Theatre to be present at the Camilla
Urso concert. The galleries were almost
empty, but those present in the main
auditorium numbered many of the most
eminent critics Of music in the city as
well as some first-class musicians.
The concert opened with a piano
solo by Mr.. Auguste Sauret. 1t fell
upon cold ears-failing to draw any
genuine applause. lie was followed by
5. Trebutt, advertised on the pro-
gramme as a tenor from London" -"
but unless he was out Of voice tenn
porarily the company went long way
from Richmond to discover what could
easily have been found here in the
shape of tenor voice. Mr.. Trebutt
was followed by Miss jamie &. Savage,
who favored the audience with reci-
tation, the rendering Of which did not
in the slightest tend to dispel the cold
ness of the house.
Then came Madame Camilla Urso,
and it was a relief to hear her finished
violin performance. All of the almost
numberless musical sounds for which
the violin is so Justly celebrated are at
her complete control. Without effort,
seemingly, the softest and sweetest
sounds are made to come forth.
1t is hard to believe at
times that you are listening
to a violin. She made it growl like a
bear, squeal like pig, sound like the
sweetest-singing birds, initiate flutes
and other instruments without seeming
to know it. The only trouble is that
while playing she stands motionless,
leaning forward with eyes closed and
a face in which not a muscle moves.
This gives her playing an autOmatical
appearance and detracts from its in-
terest.
The next number was an aria from
Joshus-" Oh, Had Jubars Lyre -
and this was rendered with so much
accuracy and sweetness of expression
by Miss Alice May Esty that the audi
ence broke into genuine applause and
recalled Miss Esty. This was the only
instance during the evening that any
such evidence of appreciation was
shown, except when Madame Urso was
on the stage.

Resignation Of a Cashier-Proposed National
Bank Chrrgos Of Arson AGAINST firemen.
Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch. J
NOVEMBER 81, 1885.
Captain Samuel Stevens, for many
years the cashier Of the Bank Of Peters
burg, has resigned that position to en-
gage in other business. The Board Of
Directors have elected Mr.. Carter K.
Bishop cashier to fill the vacancy.
Mr.. Stevens was a very popular and
efficient officer. Mr.. Bishop was for
merly connected with the Commercial
National Bank OF this city, and will
bring full experience to the discharge
of the duties of the Office to which he
has been elected. The directors Of the
Bank Of Petersburg have under con-
sideration, as authorized by the stock
holders in their recent meeting, the pro-
priety of increasing the capital stock Of
the bank and converting it into a ma
tional bank. There is great demand
for increased banking facilities in our
community, and a national bank has for
some time been talked of.
1t is said that charges have been
preferred against two members Of
our fire department, based on circum-
stantial evidence, for setting fire to and
burning the grocery-store Of Chiel-En-
gineer p. IL. Curtis, on Franklin
street. last week. The matter has
caused much comment, and the two
fremen declare their intention, if they
are acquitted, Of bringing suit for dam
ages for defamation Of character. The
matter is to be thoroughly investigated
by the Board of Fire Commissioners.
The shipments Of manufactured to-
bacco in export from this city during
the week ending to-day amount to no.
500 pounds.
Contrary to expectation, the negro
George Clarke, charged with the mur-
der of his wife, was not brought be-
fore the Mayor this morning for exami-
nation. A large crowd was present to
see him. 1t is said he will waive pre-
limina7y examination and ask to be
sent on to the grand jury.

NORFOLK, Nov. 81, 1885.
The truckers Of this section are now
engaged in following, planting marrow
fat peas, and setting out cabbage-plants.
Large quantities Of kale have been put
in on the strength Of the high prices of
last season, and it is now apprehended
that the market will be over-stocked
and prices correspondingly low. A
truckers life is only occasionally "a
happy one" Very little money was
made by them the past season, but as
work again commences they are hopeful
and anxious.
The work Of draping the public
buildings Of Portsmouth, a. tribute OF
respect to the dead yice-President, was
performed to-day. The flags through
out the two cities and on all American
shipping in the harbor continue to fly
at half mast, and will remain so until
after the funeral.
William Bishop, the sexton Of Queen
Street Methodist Episcopal church, fell
dead on the street this morning.
The large throng of naval officers here
just now are having a gay time. Hops
and receptions take place nearly every
afternoon at the navy-yard or on the
ships, usually from . to 8 o'clock, and
our society circles return the cOmpli-
ment with q german two or three times
q week in either Norfolk or Portsmouth.
The naval colony will be largely re-
duced next week, as all three of the
training-ships sail Wednesday on their
winter trip. Still there will be four
ships left here.
The old crop Of peanuts has about
ceased coming to this market, and the
factories here have ceased to. quote
them.
Our harbor has not been so bare OF
large shipping at this season Of the year
for years as now. Coasting vessels,
however, are more numerous.
One of the largest bumpers engaged
in deepening the harbor at Cape Charles
was run into and sunk by the steamer
Norfolk yesterday morning. The Nor
folk had her propeller broken and was
otherwise damaged.
The United Charities have COM
menced their winters work delivering
coal and wood to the poor Of the city.
A party of railroad men in charge
Of Colonel John NJ. Robinson arrived
here on the Bay Line this morning, and
passed up the Seaboa?d road.
This afternoon the wrecking-tug u.

river to raise the lumber-laden schooner
Marion, sunk near the mouth Of
Chipoax creek. The schooner is to
be taken to Richmond, for which port
she was bound,
This afternoon the city hall and the
fire department buildings were draped
in black in respect to the memory Of

REV. DIR. 4. b. BROWN.
Death Of this DISTINGUISHED Divine aud
Educator.

Educator.
At 900 last night there passed away.
at his residence on west Main street,
Rev. a. b. Brown, d. D., LII. D., pro-
feSsor of English in Richmond College.
His health had been poor for some
time, and for several days he had been
confined to his bed, but his friends had
no idea that the end was so near. when
congestion of the liver ensued, and he
calmly breathed his last.
Thus has closed his earthly career
(n his sixty-fourth year and in the full
vigor OF bis powers one Of the noblest
intellects, one Of the ripest scholars,
one of the most accomplished teachers,
one Of the noblest men among our Vir-
ginia educators. A native Of Amherst
county, he was educated at the Unyer.
sity Of Virginia had been pastor at
Hampton, Charlottesville, and in
Pittsylyania county, and professor at
uollins Institute, and entered his pro-
fessorship in Richmond College in Sep
tember, 1881.
lie had won the highest admiration
of his colleagues and the enthusiastic
regard Of his students, and had given
his School of English a wide repu-
tation. Modest as he was able. gentle,
loving, and genial, he was the charm of
the social circle. while his humble trust
in Christ made his Christian character
beautiful, gave him the consultations OF
the Christians hope, and enabled him
to die in the triumphs Of the Christian
faith.
lie leaves a widow, three married
sons, two in Danyille and one in Pitt
sylyania,) one unmarried son, and three
daughters to mourn their unspeakable
loss.
The announcement for the funeral
will be made hereafter.
