Besides, comparing the progress of our arms in Central Asia, the soval extinction of the Polish insurrection aud the complete subjugation of the Caucasus with Napoleon's own position in Mexico and elsewhere, he ought to be the last man to talk of our having had ill-gck.

The large bridge across the Hudson at Albany is now near enough completed to allow the passage of trains ‘er it. It is a structure which for size and leagth is «qualled by few in this country, For several years past the Various railroad companies now interested in this bridge have seen the necessity of constructing it, but they lacked the nerve to undertake the job. Their am- bition, however, soon overcame their nervousnoss; and in June, 1864, the plans, specifications, &c., of the Albany bridge had been drawn, and in that month and year the work of erecting the structure was commenced. Tue immediate supervision of tho work was placed in the hauds of Mr, Bridgeford, formerly of tho Now York Central Railroad; but for some reason or other the affairs connected with his department did not Progress as vapidly as was expected by the dirvetors; and, in con- sequence thereof, Mr. A. F. Smith, then and now Super intendent of the Hudson River Railroad, was appointed his successor, Mr. Smith immodiately solected his own mon for the business, and from that time forth the work progressed rapidly, The Superintondoncy of the wood or trestle work was siven to Mr, Newman, the cslebrated bridge butider, and the mason work and construction of piors and abutments to Messrs, Snyder and Meadden. ‘The labor continued vigorously until February 15, 1866, when the first lo-o motiye, the Augustus Schell, of the Hudson River Rail- road, John Dyckinan, engineer, passed over it {rom ono end to the other, On the 21st of February another en- gine drawing two heavily laden cars also passed over it. THE DIMENSIONS OF THE BRIDGS.
