The Railboad Suspension Bridge over the Niagaka . —The " bridge will fona a single span of 800 feet in length . It is to serve as a connecting line between the railroads of Canada and the State of New York , and to acconiodate the common travel of the two countries . It is established , by ample experience , that good iron wire , if properly united into cables or ropes , is the best material for the support of loads and concussions , in virtue of its great absolute cohesion , -which amounts to from 90 , 000 to 130 , 000 lbs . per square inch , according to quality . The bridge will form a straight hollow beam of 20 feet wide , and 17 deep , composed of top , bottom , and sides . The upper iloor , which supports the railroad , is 24 feet wide between the railings , and suspended to two wire cables , assisted by stays . The lower floor is 19 feet wide and 15 feet high in the clear , connected with the upper one by vertical trusses , forming its sides , and suspended on two other cables , which have
10 feet more deflection than the upper ones . The anchorage will be formed by sinking 8 shafts into the rock , 25 feet deep . The bottom of each shaft will he enlarged for the reception of cast-iron anchor plates , of G feet square . These chambers will have a prismatical section , which , when filled with solid masonry , cannot be drawn np without lifting the whole rock to a considerable extent . Saddles of cast-iron will support the cables on the top of the towers . They will consist of two parts—the lower one stationary , and the upper one moveable , resting upon wrought-iron rollers . The saddles will have to support a pressure of 600 tons , whenever the bridge is loaded with a train of maximum weight . The towers are to be 60 feet high , 15 feet square at the base , and 8 at the top . The compact hard limestone nsed in the masonry of the towers will bear a pressure of 500 tons upon every foot square . *
