Plan. for the Big nridge.

A special committee of the Board OF
Port Wardens of Philadelphia, on Friday,
met with William Ii. Brown, chief en-
gineer of the Pennsylvania aud New Jer-
sey Railroad, to consider the application
| for permission to place in the Delaware
! the six piers which are to support the
great new bridge, below Bridesburg.
The committee asked Mr.. Brown to go
over the sketches IN general way, the
members putting questions on various de-
| tails as he progressed.
1.-The point where the bridge leaves the
Pennsylvania bank to cross the river"
said he, sis Just where Roxborough street
will end when il shall have been opened.
The New Jersey end of the bridge is
about 400 feet above the north end of
the long stone dyke which runs from
Pettys Island to the Jersey shore. The
draw, according to the plans, is at the
middle of the river, having two spans,
$40 feet long each, to the Pennsylvania
shore, and one span, of like length, to the
New jersey shore. The deepest water Is
one side of the draw, and it has been sug-
gested that new plan be prepared, NOV
ing the draw over the deepest water.
But the long spans stand 90 feet in the
clear above high water"
GLOW much clear water is there in the
draw ?" Engineer Brown was asked.
There is 800 feet of clear water, $50
feet Oh either side of the draws support"
"What are the height and grading of
the bridge approaches on the land sides ?"
at is above grade, and does not touch
any thing from frankfort Junction, till
it reaches Fish House Station"
The question of the heights of steamers
which must pass under the bridge came
up. 1t was announced that the highest
smok estacks are those of the steamers
Columbia and Twilight, which are fifty
i've feet above the water. These heights
are exactly adapted to the proper pro-
duction of steam from the boats engines.
"They can be made to drop a section
of the upper stack" suggested Mr.. Fer
guson. 81 have seen steamboats, on the
Thames, in England, approach bridge
at full speed. Just before passing under
the span, boy, working lever, an
hinged the upper section of a stack,
which fell below the lower level of the
span, and the boat swept through with
out halt. As soon as the stack was in
the clear again the boy turned his lever
once more. and the stack was at its origi
nal height The operation, perfectly sim
pie and easy, was repeated at every
bridge"
