BRIDGE OVER The Roches- ter American gives ihe results of an examina ion ale by Mir lCharles Elle, a Philadelphia Engineer, of the localities near the Niagara Falls where il s proposed to erect suspension bridge over the river. Mir. Eet has constructed several bridges upon this plan m Europe and one at Fairmont and his esti- mates thought there fore be entitled to credit. The American says ys,-"There is point about mile and half below the cataract, and the whirlpool, where the distance from high bank to the other does not exceed 700 feet. The ofa hanging bridge at that point, of sufficient strength to sustain the weight of rallrod train or any other burthen which may be placed upon it, and made in the best and curest manner, is estimated by Mir Elet at s200 0O0. He offers to construct such bridge for that sum, and to subscribe S$2O 900 to it's stock" This, if il ever be constructed will be magnificent work IL is thought to be peculiarly important m connection with the proposed railroad from Rochester via Lock- port To the Falls the distance being 80 miles and the estimated expense ssl 900 900.
