ORSAffIUS GOLE.
A SOBER SECOND THOUGHT.
Up to a very short time the South haa
been defiant and refused to accept any
terms under which the law making pow
er of the Government saw fit to receive
them back into the Union. Since the
passage of the Reconstruction Bill over
the veto of the President, things have
somewhat changed and from almost every
one of the ex-rebel States tidings of a
submissive character come to us. The
leading men of the South are beginning
to understand that the terms offered by
Congress are the mildest they will ever
be able to obtain, and hence such men as
ex-Gov. Brown, of Georgia, are urging
the people to “accept the situation.”
This is the natural, beneficient opera
tion of the Reconstruction act of Con
gress, so fiercely denounced by the Presi
dent and Copperhead Congressmen and
journals, as an act “to organize hell” in
the South, to destroy Liberty, and to
whelm the whole land in anarchy and
military despotism. The indications now
are that the majority of the ex-rebel
States will promptly and cordially reor
ganize on the basis proposed by Congress.
What patriotic heart does not swell with
gratitude and joy at the prospect?
RELIEF FOR THE STARTING SOUTH.
Congress has passed the Joint Resolu
tion for the appropriation of one million
dollars for the relief of the destitute in
the South, as amended by Gen. Logan.
His amendment provides that the amount
shall be deducted from the sum assigned
to the Freedmen’s Bureau. This amend
ment has been concurred in by the Sen
ate. Gen. Howard has expressed the
opinion that the appropriations to the
Freedmen’s Bureau would enable him to
meet the demands for necessary aid to
December next. The passage of this re
solution enables t.ie Bureau Commission
ers to issue rations to every’ class of suf
fering poor in the South, whether loyal or
disloyal, white or blaek.
ANOTHER VETO VETOED.
The veto on the Suplementary Recon
struction Bill was given to Congress on
Saturday, and passed by both Hous
es over the veto in less than an hour af
ter its reception. A special dispatch to
the Chicago Tribune , in relation to the
veto says, “it appears from two or three
sentences in the opening paragraph of
the message, that neither the .President
nor Attorney General have read the bill
since the last three amendments of the
House were added thereto, as there is an
entirely incorrect statement made as to
its scope with respect to the punishment
for perjury.”
Restoration of Rebel Property.
The New York Tribune’s special Wash
ington dispatch says that Gen. Saxton, in
liis testimony before the Judiciary Com
mittee concerning the restoration of pro
perty to rebels in South Carolina, said he
acted upon direct orders issued from the
War Department by the President of the
United States. The amount of this pro
perty- was very large, as it consisted of
houses, lands, Ac., which had been aban
doned by the rebels. All the property in
the hands of the Treasury Agents seized
during the rebellion, and which has been
turned over to General Sa ton, was also
surrendered to the rebels by order of the
President.
The committee have gone very’ fully
into this question, and the evidence thus
far elicited shows that hundreds of mil
lions of dollars’ worth of property have
been turned over to leading rebels with
out any warrant of law.
State Aid to Rail Roads.
A short time since, a very ‘ . portant
resolution was introduced fo. an amend
ment to our state constitution so as to al
low the state to lend its aid to railroads
hereafter to be built. On the 20th inst,
Senator Webb, .reported in favor of the
adoption of the resolution, when a vote
was taken with the following it suit;
Ayes—Senators Browne, Rull. Clark,
Earnest, Fulton, (inary. Larkin, Morgan,
Palmer, Proudfit. Rannoy. George Heed,
Orson Reed, Sanders, Sholes, Smith,
Starks, Stevens, Thorn. J. G. Thorp,
Webb, Wheeler, Whitman and Wilson
—24.
Noes—Senators Judd and Rountree —2
The following is the resolution :
Resolred by the Senate, the Assembly
concurring. That section four of article
eight of the Constitution of the State of
Wisconsin is amended to read as follows;
The State shall never contract any pub
lic debt except in cases and manner
herein provided; but the legislature
shall provide by law that for every twen
ty continuous miles of railroad, operated
by other than horse power, hereafter
built and equipped as a first class railroad
within the State, there shall be donated
from tbe State Treasury, to the company
building the same, one hundred thousand
dollars. For that purpose a public debt
may be created, and bonds may be issued
in addition to the debt provided for by
section six and nine of article eight.
—
—Senator Webb of Waushara, has in
troduced a bill into the Legislature for
the purpose of allowing the people to
vote on the question of moving the se at
of Government from Madison to Milwau
kee. The bill provides that the people
of Milwaukee are to build a now capitol,
for the state government, so that the tax
payers of other counties will not lose
anything by the transfer.

The Reconstruction.
The supplementary reconstruction bill
has passed both houses of Congress and
gone to the President. The Chicago Tri
bune gives the following synopsis of the
Reconstruction Law, as it stands, includ
ing the Constitutional Amendment and
the Supplementary Act:
i. It is declared jn the preamble that
no legal government or adequate protec
tion for life and property exist in the ten
rebel States.
2 The rebel States are divided into five
military Districts.and their limits defined.
3 The President is required to assign
to each of these Districts a Commander
not below the rank of a brigadier Gen
eral, and detail a sufficient military force
to enable such officer to enforce his au
thority.
4 The Commanders are required to
protect all persous in their rights.
5 All persons arrested by the military
authority are to have a speedy trial, and
cruel or unusual punishment is prohibit
ed.
6 Before the Ist of September next the
Commanding General is required to cause
to be ma lea registration of all lawful
voters in their respective States. Before
registration every applicant will be requir
ed to take the following oath :
“I do solemnly swear or affirm, in the
presence of Almighty God, that lam a
citizen of the State of ; that I
have resided in said State for months
next preceding this day, and now reside
in the county of , or the parish of
that I am twenty-one years of age ; that
I have not been disfranchised for partici
pating in any rebellion or civil war against
the United States, nor for felony commit
ted against the laws of any State, or the
United States; that I have never taken
an oath as a member of any State Legis
lature of any State to support the Con
stitution of the United States and after
ward engage in insurrection or rebellion
against the United States, or given aid
and comfort to the enemies thereof; that
I will faithfully support the Constitution
and obey the laws of the United States,
and will to the best of my ability, encour
age others so to do ; So help me God.”
7 After the registration is complete
the Commander is to order an election
for delegates to the Constitutional Con
vention, and to appoint the officers of
such election. At the same election in
which those delegates are chosen, the
people shall vote, yes or no, on the ques
tion as to whether a Convention shall be
held or not. If . majority vote to hold
one, the delegates are to assemble at the
time and place to be specified by the
Commander.
_ 8 In the registration and in the elec
tions, all male citizens stand on an equal
footing, irrespective of color, race or
former condition.
9 The Convention, if ordered, by a ma
jority. will proceed to form a Constitution.
10 The Constitution so framed shall be
submitted to the people for approval or
condemnation.
11 If thr Constitution is ratified by a
majority of the votes of the registered
electors, at lea-t one half of the register
ed voters, voting upon the question of
ratification, and it shall appear to Con
gross the election was one at which all
the registered and qualified voters in the
state had an opportunity to vote without
restraint, fear or fraud, and if the Con
stitution meets the approval of Congress,
and if tbe government under it ratifies
the pending Constitutional Amendment,
the State shall lie entitled to a represen
tation in Congress as soon as the pending
amendmen l bee ones a part of the" Con
stitution of the United States.
12 Until the States, so admitted, all
the existing Governments therein, or any
that may he established, are to be pro
visional only, and fully subject to the
paramount power of Congress, which
may alter, modify or abolish in its discre
tion.
13 No one is entitled to hold office who
is prohibited by the third section of the
pending Constitutional Amendment—
that is those who have ever token an
oath in assuming tlie duties of certain
civil officers, to support the Constitution
of the United States, and have supse
quently engaged in the rebellion. The
purport of the section will be readily seen
by reference to the oath prescribed for
voters.
Such are the main features of the Re
construction Law as it now stands at
present; and it is not probable that Con
gress will materially modify any portion
of it.
Man Saved after Floating One Hundred
Miles.
The Nashville Press and Times, of Fri
day, say:
“At the time the great bridge at Bridge
port was carried away, we reported that
one. of the watchmen, a man named
Kirkpatrick was carried down with the
structure, and, it was supposed,drowned.
Htrange as it may seem, the man clung
to the wreck, and after floating down the
river a distance of almost a hundred
miles, was finally picked up tminjured,
!>ut terribly exhausted, by the steamer
Kingston. He was brought back to
Bridgeport, where he arrived yesterday.
The five spans of the bridge up n which
Kirkpatrick took his ride'are now lodged
on Muscle Shoals, but it is thought that
they cannot be recovered. ’ ’
A Strange Phenomenon.—A gentle
man brought into our office yesterday a
boiled egg, from which the shell had
been removed, which exhibited a remark
able phenomenon. The egg was boiled
! hard, and on the surface appeared letters
j like the impression of type. They were
| plain to be seen, and were found there
j when the shell was taken off. Three
| other eggs of the same lot, after being
cooked and opened, exhibited a similar
appearance.
We understand that these eggs had
laid for some time wrapped up in news
paper, and exposed to the sun’s rays.—
The membranous lining of the f shell of
an egg, as every one knows, is composed
largely of gelatine, while the white of
the egg is composed of albumen, both of
which arc used by the photographers in
making their prints. These eggs were
small and had thin shells, and the suppo
sition is that the sunlight produced a
chemical action of the gelatine and albu
men, whereby the print in the paper was
transferred to the white of the egg. It
is a somewhat singular phenomenon, and
if any person can give ns anv further
information on it we shall be happy to re
ceive it. — Oswego { A r . Y.) Times.
—The World takes ground that the
population of New York is greater by
300.000 than the Depew census makes it.
The estimate shows there are a little
more than 700.000 inhabitants, in the
meanwhile the death rate is 25,000 an
nually, which is a normal number of
1,000,000, unless New Y-rk is the most
unhealthy city in the world, which it is
not. Manhattan Island must now have
oqe million of inhabitants.
MANITOWOC. THURSI, MARCH 28, 1867.
A VOYAGE THROUGH THE LAKE
TUNNEL.
A Tour of Inspection—lta Incidents
and Results.
("From the Chicago Tribnno.]
Those who have already made the
journey in comfortable trucks, pioneered
by comfortable mules, and provided with
comfortrble baskets and bot.lcs, will
scarcely appreciate the novelty and ex
citement of a voyage made through the
dismal cavern in a flat-bottomed boat,
and after the introduction of Lake Mich
igan. Let us distinguish, as we say.
The journey was comparatively easy,
smooth and dry; the voyage was rather
perilous, and, if anything, dump; damp,
not in an aldcnnanic sense, but damp
externally and searchingly. Such a voy
age never having been made before, and
never to be made again, the historians
may be permitted, with all modesty, to
characterize the adventure as tin parallel
ed, and the four adventurers are only too
happy to-day to have the privilege of
recording their experience, instead of
furnishing material for small obituaries.
The flood gates at the crib were open
ed a week ago and the water admitted
for the purpose of making a preparatory
experiment to test the thorough efficiency
of the walls. On Friday a portion of the
water was pumped out, leaving the tun
nel oyer half full, when Mr. Chcsbrough.
desiring to make a final examination of
the work, conceived the idea of a boating
excursion a delightful idea. He invi
ted three _ members of the press to join
him in ♦his excursion, and anticipating
perhaps a somewhat arduous trip, he
considerately forewarned them to leave
their new spring hats at home. * * *
at Tire cam
the party were received courteously by
Captain Berg, who wore upon his beam
ing countenance, however, an. ominous
grin, which was anything but encouraging
under the circumstances. It clearly
meant that we wore laud-lubbers, and
the prospect of a pleasant catastrophe to
the adventurers appeared to amuse, not
only him, but all the baud.- on the crib.
They took our dimensions, inquired if
our lives were insured, and kindly volun
teered to convey our last messages to the
girls we left behind—all of which pleas
antries were received in good part, while
it was understood that they were prepar
ing to lower us gently down the shaft in
the old way. Having been in the tunnel
on former occasions, there was nothing
appalling in the prospect of another de- j
scent. We did not calculate ou the fact
that the hoist was no longer in operation. I
This was rather a startling discovery, and :
presented the matter in quite anew
light. Captain Berg with diabolical
composure, conducted us to the mouth of
the yawning abyss, and pointed out the
only method by which the bottom could
be reached—a perpendicular ladder down
che side oi the cylinder. To recoil from
such a step was not unnatural. To re
treat would have been unmanly. To re
gard the proposal as a joke was a poor
subterfuge. There was the ladder—no
joke, but a wet. slimy, horrible reality.
“First.” quoth the Captain, heedless of
the wan looks of the party “you go down
the first ladder so far. Then yon get
over to another ladder, and take care you
don't miss the steps. Then you go straight
down.” An echo from the abyss seem
ed to answer “straight down. ' Another
alternative was offered, to descend one
by one by means of a rope which dangled
over the mouth of the shaft, suggestive
of unpleasant scenes, and this being the
safest mode of conveyance the proposal
was unanimously adopted. At this mo
ment Mr. Chesbrough appeared ready
equipped for the voyage, in the guise of
an ancient mariner, a broad brimed sou’-
wester oa h- head, a rubber coat upon
bis back, and his nether limbs protected
by ft pair of high boots. Tire other mem
bers of the party inwardly commended
themselves to the care oi tue saints, and
prepared to follow their leader.
Each looked to sun an 1 sky and plain
As what lu* ne'er might see again.
Re-assured in some measure by the
calmness of our chief, Mr. Chesbrough,
who very soon disappeared in the depths
by means of the ladder, we resigned our
selves to fate and to the rope.
THE DESCENT
was not exactly what Captain Borg would
have called a “straight down” process,
yet it was preferrable to the ladder. A
noose was formed at. the end of the rope
which afforded a tolerably secure seat,
though to see an. individual who had
committed no crime, hanging in thaf, de
plorable position over such a gloomy
abyss, was rather humilating. The first
sensation was decidedly striking,—a series
of rapid whirlings which produced a
temporary giddiness, followed by an un
expected blow on the head from some
projection. From below came a hostile
growl, a dashing and dripping of water,
while around on every side was a lively
sense of cold wet iron. Once below the
flood gates where the water was hissing
and sputtering as if eager to make a rush
upon the victim, the sense of wetness
gradually increased, and when deposited
at the bottom of the shaft a plunge into
the “sumph” could have added nothing
to our condition. Four times the rope
was lowered, and the party at last found
themselves at the beginning of their voy
age, standing under a pelting shower
hath, which in a few minutes had nearly
half tilled with water the frail bark to
which we confided our fortunes.
A FLAT-BOTTOMED BOAT,
was the very worst boat that could
possibly have been selected for such a
purpose, and the voyagers very soon had
occasion to deplore the necessity of em
ploying it. The slightest movement had
the effect of tipping it over, and the
result was that when we started, each
one having to sit in the bottom, we were
comfoitably immersed half way up in
water. There was an unanimous protest
uttered against the boat, but that proved
of little avail, so, steadying ourselves as
well as possible, and each holding a
miner’s lamp in his hand, we left the
shaft and shot swiftly into
THE TUNNEL.
The only means of propelling the ves
sel way by pushing against the walls, and
this was a very unsteady process, fraught
with danger to the boat and her little
crew. The water at the crib end was
exactly half way up the sides of the bore,
gradually deepening, of course, as we ap
proached the shore. For a time it was
comparatively plain sailing, and by the
aid of the lamps we were enabled to ex
amine minutely the condition of the
cement, which was the principal object
of the voyage. Not a flaw could be dis
covered, with the exception of a space
here and there between the bricks, where
an iron spike had been introduced to hold
the ventilators. The top of the arch
seemed to be perfectly dry, save in the
E laces where the water, not from the
ike, but from springs in the vicinity of
the tunnel, ooies through the walls.
The water was beautifully clear, as dear
as crystal, and sweet to the taste.
We were not long permitted, however,
to enjoy the contemplation of the snr-
rounding scenery, limited as the view
was. The bricks were soon exhausted,
every brick being so much like its neigh
bor as to become somewhat monotonous.
The lamps, too, began to dicker out. —
Like the foolish virgins, we had omitted
to trim them properly, and now we were
left in a state of obscurity which was al
most as bewildering as total darkness.
One could have imagined he was cross
ing the unknown river with “that grim
ferryman whom poets write of,” our
Charon being Mr. Chesbrou .’h,who look
ed like some grim phantom pawing the
air as it seemed, and muttering some
mysterious incantation. The silence be
came oppressive; the distant growling
from the end of the cavern were maguifi
edjnto the noise of a cataract, and our
hearts stood still as we thought how by
some unforseen accident the flood-gates
might be opened. To perish like rats
in a hole, to be distributed in the course
of time through the water pipes of Chi
cago, and be boiled in kettles —we were
not prepared for such a sarifice. Then
again we remembered how Dr. Guilloin
was among the first who perished by the
instrument of death whicii he invented,
how the man who invented the new drop
was the very first who was hanged upon
it, and other similar instances. How if
destiny had also decreed that Mr. Ches
brough was to be drowned in his own tun
nel ? To chase away these fears, we sang
the 6tar Spangled Banner, and listened
to the beautiful echo of our own sweet
voices from the nearest chamber.
In this way we reached the closing
stone, a white marble tablet, placed there
by the Mayor’s own hands. We paused
to scrutinize this closing stone, and here
an unlucky incident occurred, to which
may be attributed the disaster which was
soon to follow. One of the crew, inspir
ed by a frantic wish to “write his name
in water,” leaned over the edge of the
flat bottomed boat, which took in a lit
tle more than it could conveniently carry.
Then in the process of bailing the crew
got unsettled in their positions and never
quite regained an equilibrium. We suc
ceeded, however,in pushing our way at a
considerable risk on to a point beyond the
fifth chamber nearly a mile and a half
from the crib.
WEDGED IS.
Our heads had been gradually ap
proaching the top of the tunnel as we
pursued our darksome journey to the
shore. From sitting postures each mem
ber of the party had slowly subsided into
reclining attitudes, and by and by they
wore changed into horizontal positions.
This-in a fiat-bottomed bout half full of
water was refreshing. Those who were
at each end of the boat were bent ‘ ‘like
corbels of a building” in an attitude of
devotion, while the other two, with faces
turned heavenward, could feel the rub
bing of the bricks against their noses. —
Further progress was deemed a little too
precarious. Still no one was willing to
give out, and our leader manifested a
readiness to go the whole length if desir
able. It was not desirable. In fact it
was not practicable, seeing that the boat
by this time was effectually wedged in
between the bricks and the water.
THE CATASTROPHE.
The return necessitated a change of
propellers, and the new hands not being
well accustomed to the duty,the unsteadi
ness of or devoted Park was increased.
The water name in on all sides, so we got
on swimmingly after a fashion. Only
two lights were left and these but strug
gled drearily with the darkness. They
were entrusted to the man in the centre
of the boat; another propelled, while the
two at each end set to work to halo out
the water. We had not gone far towards
the crib end again, when symptoms of
uneasiness began to manifest themselves.
In spite of all efforts to bale out the wa
ter, the boat seemed to be filling rapidly.
We were yet a mile at least from the
shaft and the water was nearly breast
deep! Suddenly the man at the stern
raised a sharp cry of distress; his end was
settling down, he said, and what was tho
use in bailing out. The man with the
lamp rose to his feet just as he fell the
boat subsiding. The nia vith the (buck
et sprang overboard, and Mr. Chesbrough
floundered. We were shipwrecked.
Then rose from sea to sky the wild fare
well. The last expiring lamplight had
flickered out and ail was confusiou and
darkless deeper than Tophet. Up to
the, waist in cold water, the boat lying at
the bottom of the tunnel, a sensation of
a thousand needles pricking all over our
limbs, the situation was indescribable.
In spite of mir dismay tho sense of our
ridiculous position was so irresistible that
we raised an involuntary shout of laugh
ter loud and prolonged. It came back
to us in the echoes from the chamber
and sounded like the mocking of a spec
ial crew of fiends.
There was no help for us bur to raise
the boat and haul it to the crib end.—
This was a task of considerable difficulty
but after a vigorous effort we succeeded.
Wading through the chilly water with
our iimgs benumbed, and dragging an un
grateful fiat-bottomed boat, which would
not carry us, we toiled painfully, but as
cheerfully as possible for the distance of
a mile, shouting occasionally for help,
which did not come, bewailing our sad
fate, and thinking of the four small obi
tuaries that would appear in the morning
papers.
At last a faint light glimmered upon
us from the far end. “As if it had been
a Christian soul, we hailed it in God’s
name.” We bad been floundering in our
watery dungeon for nearly three hours,
and were pretty well exhausted. The
light proved to be a lamp in the hand of
Captain Berg, who, fearing from our pro
longed absence that some disaster had
overtaken us, had descended to the bot
tom of the shaft. And there ho stood
profoundly amused at our mischance, and
laughing consumedly as the bedraggled
wayfarers came one by one into view.
THE ASCENT.
But our worst danger was not over.
We had to climb the shaft, sixty-eight
feet in height, by means of the ladder.
“Just go straight up” said Captain
Berg, ‘‘you cannot go out of the way.”
There was no possibility of reaching the
upper air that night, except hy climbing
and as there was no comfortable lodging
to be had in the tunnel, we again adven
tured. Mr. Chesbrough ascended first,
and by way of a parting salute, when half
way up he emptied a gallon of water
from each boot upon our heads. The
remainder of the party were already ex
hausted by fatigue and cold. How the
others succeeded is best known to them
selves. The present writer for his part,
was just on the point of giving out as he
reached a platform let down about fifteen
feet from the mouth of the shaft, hands
stiffened with cram[>, a dizzy sensation of
sixty feet beneath him, a creeping of the
flesh, powerless to move another step.
One last shout for help, and ho found
himself seized by a friendly hand and
laid out on the platform, then tied to a
rope and hauled up to the month of the
shaft. Mutual congratulations on our
escape, and an adjournment to the kitch
en, where Mr Dwaney, the worthy etew-
ard of the crib, provided a bowl of hot
coffee for the sufferers.
The flood-gates of the crib were reop
ened immediate!)' after our ascent, and
the waters went down with a roar like
that of an infant Niagara. What be
came of the flat-bottomed boat we did
not know and did not care, It belonged
to Mr. C. L. Wilson, to whom we hereby
tender our profound thanks.
The tug was waiting for us at 10 o’clock,
and in a few minutes the party were fleet
ing merrily home again under the kindly
stars. And so ended the adventurous
voyage —the last that will be made
through the Lake Tunnel.
Beet Sugar—The First Experiment in
its Production.
A repoH recently made to the directors
of the Illinois Central Railroad Company,
by Mr. R. W. Bender, gives an interest
ing account of the first beet-sugar manu
factory in Illinois. A German company
began operations in 1866 by planting
four hundred acres of land in Livingston
county, mostly fresh prairie, from which
they have raised a crop of more than
four thousand tons of fine beets, at a cost
according to their own estimate, of leas
than four dollars per ton. The beets are
of the White Silesian and Imperial var
ieties, and both have done well. At the
time of harvest the roots from all parts
of their farm were tested, and the juice
was found to contain from nine to thir
teen and due-half per cent, of sugar—the
average of all the tests showing twelve
per cent.
The quality of the beets tested would
yield seven and one third per cent, of
raw sugar, in color equal to fair refining
sugar, but intrinsically much superior—
or, it would yield five and one-half per
cent, of sugar equal in all respects to
New York refined “B.” —The beets rais
ed, if successfully and rapidly worked,
would have produced not less than four
hundred and fifty thousand pounds of
refined sugar.
In consequence of accidents to machin
ery, and oilier causes, the work has been
delayed several months,but is has recent
ly been resumed with great success. Mr.
Bender says.
“The capacity of the manufactory is
estimated to be equal to fifty lous of
beets per day. During the few days the
work. has been in operation, they have
turned out about eighteen thousand
pounds of sugar—two thirds of which
was equal to New York refined B—which
was the uroduct of an unknown quantity
of beet roots, as I found they had not
kept any record of the quantity brought
from the pits of the factory. The pulp
was not watered on the centrifugals, so
as to save evaporation. The juice was
boiled blank and placed in large tanks to
c rystalize. Th is course was mainly taken
to economize the use of steam. The
product granulated in twenty-four hours,
and the second in three days, so as to go
in centrifugal machines. I could see
nothing of the. third product. I very
much regret that Messrs. Gennert could
not give me an accurate account of the
cost of cultivating their beets ; the esti
mate, as I have already said, was less
than four dollars per ton. It is also to
be regretted that no account of the weight
of beets taken to the factory was kept,
although any calculation made on this
basis would be unfair, considering the
irregular operations at the factory, and
the deterioration of the saeharine prop
erties of the roots from long delay in
working.
“The result of my investigations add
ed to my previous knowledge of the sub
ject, more than ever confirms my belief
in the speedy and successful development
of this branch of agricultural industry.
And this feeling is already widely enter
tained throughout the West, where suit
able lands and abundance of fuel can be
had.at low prices in the immediate vicin
ity of a ready market.” —Chicago Post.
Proposed Great Bridge at St. loals—
Its Dimensions and Capacity.
The entire length of the bridge will be
2,700 feet. The lowest part of the main
spans, or bottom chord, will be not less
than fifty feet above the city directrix
(indicating the highest water mark) at
the greatest span. There will be two
spans oyer the main steamboat channel
of 350 feet each, in the clear, not includ
ing the abutments. The remainder of
the spans over the main river will not be
less than 200 feet each, and probably will
be 250 feet each. There will be two
spans trom the Missouri shore of the riv
er over the levee ; and it will probably
be found necessary to bridge at least two
streets besides the-above,on the St. Louis
side, before coming to a level grade. A
portion of the slough on the Illinois side
will also be bridged. The total length of
the bridge over the main channel on the
river will be about 2,000 feet. The total
length of the bridging over the streets in
St. Louis and over the slough on the Ill
inois shore will be about TOO feet —thus
making the entire length of the bridge,
as above, about 2,700 feet. The super
structure will be built of iron, and on
Post’s patent plan. The roadway will
consist of two double-track carriage ways
and one single-track railway, with tracks
on the latter to accomodate the different
gauges of the railroads centering at St.
Louis. The railway track will run be
tween the two carriage tracks; the latter
at the ends passing under the railway,
which will run over them on bridges,
thus keeping the carriage and railway
tracks from all inteference with each oth
er. Thus there will, in reality, be three
bridges over the river, abreast of each
other, which is equivalent to a single
track bridge 8,100 feet long. In audi
tion to the carriage and railway tracks
there will be two sidewalks, six feet wide,
each side of the bridge. The masonry
will be of the most substantial and mas
sive character and description. The
main piers will be from 120 to 130 feet
high nom the foundations, and will be
60 feet long on top, and 7 to S feet wide
with a proper batten to their foundations.
The foundations will be very expensive,
and, and it may be found necessary to
use pneumatic piles; but it is hoped that
the ordinary piles will be found sufficient,
if so, they will be firing driven, sawed
off at the bed of the river or ton of
foundation, and the masonry lowered in
iron caissons to its place.
The approximate cost of the entire
structure, it is estimated, will be about
although this cannot be de
termined until a thorough examination
is made of the bed of the river. A corps
of engineers will be on the ground for
that purpose in a few days.
We learn that Messrs. Drexel & Cos.,
of Philadelphia, and Messrs. Jay Cooke
& Cos., are interested financially in this
undertaking ; and that these is no donbt
whatever but that the enterprise is al
ready placed upon such a basis as will in
sure that it will be undertaken immedi
ately, and completed with the least possi
ble delay.
