The whole com- pany next entered a long train of new care attached to one of the heaviest locomotives, and were brought over the bridge, back and forth, with perfoct success, The engineers and practical bridge builders and railroad officers from other lines, have thor- oughly examined the great structure in all its parte, and were earnest and unanimous in their approval of the strength, beauty and perfect safety of the bridge, which has already been tested by a weight of four times that of & train of loaded cars, in ite entire length of three-fourths of amile, All are loud in their praise of the decided genius shown by its able engineer, George A.

Havre pe Grace, Md, Nov. 26, 1866. ‘The little town has been under a great excitement to- day, over the completion of the bridge connecting the two shores, ‘ At one o’clock a special train arrived from Baltimore, bringing a delegation of railroad men and several of the members of the city council, The Philadelphia dele- gation arrived a few minutes after, at Perryavillet when the Baltimore delegation met them. The cars were run on the steamer Maryland, which steamed mid- way of the channel, and gave the excorsionisis » view of the outside of the work just completed. Relanding the cars were run ashore, and the whole train eonveyed across the bridge. Fight minutes were occupied in crossing. Hundteds were assembled on both shores to witness the novel spectacie, and made the welkin ring with buzzas over the success of a struc. ture that has cost years of labor and been the cause of many misgivings and disappointments. Navigation is in no way obstracted, a draw being pro- vided where the channel is deepest, permitting vessels of any size or depth of water to pass to and fro. The bridge has been four years in building, and an average of a thousand men er day bas been employed in ite.construction. There was not the slightest motion perceptible while the train was passing over, which was the subject of remark and congratulation with the stock- holders, It was built from designs furnished by and under the supervision of Mr, G.
