From the Daily Telegraph, 1tA July.)

Apparently the next few years VIII be
q good time tor the builders Of railway
bridges. Inr & ,lIlp,e 81 tle PorfIand-r0ad
structure, near Norwood junction, aroused
anxiety as To The possible deficiency of
strength Ia other bridges to bear he weight
and stress Of present day traffic. The tear
has been too tul.y justified. Sir John
Fuwter has found thaJ on Jhe Brighton line
there are III east mon ViaddctS Of varied
size and character, aad that eighty Of these
should be reconstructed by the subSti ution
at wrought ron, or preferably steel. Tween
ty OF them should be rebuilt within The
ensuing twelve months, AMI the rest
within he next two or three Years. Lon
dOnerS are assured that the Victoria
Bridge over the Thames is good and sound,
and Will be so for very many years. The
largest of the works proposed is that OF the
Shoreham Viaduct, winch consists OF thir-
ty-six spans, and Sir Johu recommends that
this should N4 renewed while it is still in II
perfectly safe state 10y constructing a new
viaduct alongside the old one. The emf
nrnt engineer is careful to add that his
report does not indicate any special weak
ness in the bridges of the Brighton Com
pany, bur that the same considerations
affect the vast majority of railways, owing
t. the increase in the weight of modern
locomotives and the superior endurance
of wrought iron and steel, when high speed,
heavier engines, and greater vibration
have to be provided against. Look to your
bridges we'll will, therefore, be good policy for
railway directors. Renewals will be cheap
er than compenSationS after this warning.
Extraordinary preparations have been made
at St. PauFs Cathedral for the jubilee service
of the Tonic Sofia Choirs. 1t is expected that
about 10000 persons will attend, and as all
will sing in Stainer's anthem, 30 clap your
hands! the effect must be awaited to be des-
cribed. Another anthem, 40 where shall wis
dom bo found ?" (Boyce), is to be sung by
the surpliced choir alone. The service will
be fully choral, DR.. Martin conducting, and
Mr.. Hodge taking the organ. Bishop Mitchin-
son will preach the sermon.
