A Stupendous Work-TbefclreatSus-penslon Bridge Over East River, New York. From the New York Tribune.]

The suspension bridge over the East river will rank among the grandes wor of tho aee No bridge in the world, now fr heretofore in existence, will compare with it It will probably cost about six million dollars, and the company who will erect it, to build the bridge and for other purposes, must have a capital of not less than eight millions of dollars. Between five anlsix years' time will be required to do the work. To lay the foundations, alone, will take about one year. In point of span and general magnitude, the Cincinnati suspension bridge will rank next to the East river one. The total cost of the Cincinnati bridge was one million seven hundred thousand dollars. All the preliminary arrangements for erecting the East river bridge are progressing rapidly and favorably. The three routes which have been surveyed by Mr. John A. Eoebling, the chief engineer, diverge from a single point to the northward of the Pulton ferry slip, on the Brooklyn «ide. The main Brooklyn entrance to the bridge will be at the intersection of Sands and Fulton streets. The first and north ermost route terminates at tho intersex tion of the Bowery and Canal street the second aDd middle route at Chatham square, and the third or southernmost route, known especially as tho Park line, at tho City Hall park, opposite tho Register's office.

The last named route is considered the best of all, and will probably be the one adopted. It will involve the longest central span in the three lines named, but it will be by far the most profitable one, on account of its location. If tho Park line is adopted, tflen the whole length of the bridge, from end to end, will be 5,862 feet. It will run a little obliquely. The grade will be 3j feet in 100. from the entrance on either side, for a length of 500 feet, the width will be the width of the bridge proper. The additional width of 20 feet in the 500 referred lo, will be appropriated for walks to regulate the movements of passengers moving in opposite directions. The bridge will be divided into two roadways of fifteen feet each in the clear, one for the "going" and the other for the "coming" movements of the passengers. These, it must be borne in mind, are only two special divisions of the bridge. There will be other divisions, of 30 feet each in th9 clear, that will comprise raiiroad tracks for the running of passenger cars by wire rope, propelled by stationary engines located at one end of the bridge. Two trains of passenger cars, capablo of transporting 1,000 passenger* each way, simultaneously will make trips every five minutes.

There is still another division of the bridge, which is expected to be the most fashionable and attractive of all. The filth division will form a promenade of 17 feet in width, elevated so that the jaromenaders can overlook the four divisions of the structure beneath, as well as the river and the adjacent territory. The most conspicuous parts of tho bridge will be the two towers, located at a distance of 1,600 feet from center to center. The hight of these towers will be 150 feet above the roadway, and 117 feet abovo high tide, clear elevation in the center of tho space 130 feet. Already preparatory work has been commenccd upon the bridge. A few days ago three workmen made thoir ^appearance adjacent to the Pulton Ferry slips on tho Brooklyn side, and under the immediate direction of Mr. F. Spangler, commenccd operations preparatory to boring to determine the character ol' tho substratum. On Friday last the boring was commenced. By noon on Saturday a depth of 22 feet had been reached. In going through this, seventeen feet of cinders wero marked. Then something like a hard pan was reached. Aftor this cemented bowlders wore struck. Tho boring will now go on steadily. A record will, of course, be kept of eaeli day's work. It is assumed that not less than fifty feet will bo the depth of tho borings and it is further assumed that they will not bo made to a greator depth, under any circumstances than 220 feot. If a heavy stratum of strongly cemented bowlders should be struck, and tho boring indicate that only clay or hard pan earth is underneath, then it is probable that the foundation of the bridge will rest upon the bowlders. If the bowlders do not prove thick, and are not strongly cemented together,Jand for two hundred leet below them at least only hard pan or clay is found, then piling will have to be done, on which, with the addition of careful and heavy plunking, the foundation will have to be laid. Every reasonable effort will bo made to reach the solid rock.

Tbe Soldiers' Cemetery.

TOUR

THOUSAND ARE TO BE BURIED AT NEW ALBANY- THE DEAD TO BE TRANSFERRED FROM JEFFKRSONVILLS. [From tho New Albany Commercial.

Capt. Finney and Capt. Van Dusen returned yesterday evening from a visit to the office of the Superintendent of tho Soldiers' Cemeteries in the Department of the Cumberland. They state that Maj. "Whitman assured them that this cemetery would undoubtedly become one of the most important in this part of tho country. Tnej' were shown tho. correspondence of the authorities at Washington with him, in reforenco to this cemetery, in which assurance was given that it would speedily bo transferred to tho Department of the Cumberland from the Department of the Lakes. Tho authorities at Detroit had also recommended the transfer. As the title to the ground had been found to be good, the soldiers buried at JeQersonville are to be removed to this point, the Government having no title to the ground on which the cemetery there is located. A large number are to be transferred from various points southward, even as farjdown as Mississippi and Louisiana.

The whole of tbe ground will be retained, and will boat once convorted into a National Cemetery. It will be laid out upon some eligible plan, probably upon that reported to Dr. Fry when it was first established, which was shown to them by Major "Whitman. This gives a main entrance, with a largo oval space in the center for a monument, around which is wide carriago way. "Winding drives and walks diverge from this carriage way, and penetrate every part of tho cemetery grounds. Trees and shrubbery are to be planted along tho drives and walks, and in the intervening spaces. Thus, in many respecte, this national cemetery, when finished, will bo the best arranged and handsomest "city of the dead" in this vicinity.

It was stated that the Legislature of Pennsylvania had appropriated for monumental purposes the sum of five dollars, for each of the soldiers of the State buried in these national cemeteries. Doubtless, other States will make a like_ appropriation, and the amount realized in this way will add very materially to the funds raised by tho citizens for a monument.— When alltbese arrangements are consummated our soldiers' cemetery will be, for all time to come, one of the most important placcs in the West. Just think of it! Four thousand of the nation's loyal dead! Four full regiments of gallant men are to sleep in those silent shades! There is hardly a valley throughout the Korth, which will not be represented in this vast concourse of dead heroes. These men have nobly laid down their lives, a sacrifice upcu their country's alUr, and we would prove recreant to the high duties of the hour, if we should forget to do honor to their memory. We hope that our Monumental Association will push on the the work, and that they may fully succeed in their undertaking.

Louisiana. „Wi«h «™e' -V I Marched through the serried HUM ,7. UnwsTering and cot them down: A correspondent of the IVcbetttr Express gives a lively sketch of Ui« pine woods region of Louisiana, una of the poor whites" who inhabit, them. He gays:

THE PLK* WOODS.

Away up in the piney woods, almost out of civilization, and almost among full blooded barbarians—in tbe iand where, school houses and churches are unknown, but where poor whisky, besotted ignorance, treasonable lawlessness and malignant hatred of everything that savors of '•the Yankee" abounds—your correspondent finds himself this bright, beautiful morning, acting in the double capacity ot a government official and an orgaLizer of tbe ereat Republican party. This is the great pine region of the State, and is prolific in that production alone.. For miles and miles, naught can be observed but these tall trees, stretching their limbs to heaven, and singing a mournful requiurn as the wind plays through their evergreen branches.

THE INHABITANTS.

The inhabitants aro but few, and they are clustered together in little gatherings that can hardly be dignified with tbe name of villages—while their occupation is milking and attending to their hsrds of goats and cows, hunting the deer and hog, and haunting the village grocer*, where mostly they do congregate, and where generally they will be found guzzling "redeye," abusing tbe Tanks, and talking over "the crops" and prospects.— They are a class familiarly known as the "piney woods poor whites," and are ab^ut as low in the scale of humanity as it dm be for mankind to reach. The feuiaiedip snuff", chew and smoke tobacco and eat dirt—a compound of vile habits that induces a physique suggestive of mummies rather than human beings. Tne inttur vice—that of eating dirt—is common to all classes and begets emaciation, idiocy, and a complexion of the food. Ignorance predominates in every direction.— They raise a little corn, just .enough for "dodgers," which, with milk and baeoii, constitute their Jfood—no fruit, no vegei-afc't-Ts, nothing in this land, that, with a little labor, might be ir.ade to teem with plenty—but "hog arid hominy."

It has been my lot to travel pretty thoroughly over the southern country, but never before have I seen such a lamentable state of ignorance and demoralization as I find in this pine wood region, and yet they are all secessionists, detest labor and laboriug men, and uphold slavery. All that is human ot' humanity has been oducated out of them, until they have become the iowtst possible type of their race. Talk to them cf the possibilities of labor in the fruitful country, and~they hiss out, ''Oh, you'una are Yanks, yer sieh as aro u=ed to work we're southerners our niggers do our work," and in truth they do. The freedmen are tho only inhabitants ol this-'eec-tion who are at all above boardj aS the only plantation that I seen over a:i extent of fifty miles of country wero enrri^ ed on by colored men.

Unfortunately for the country the

Thus far, every man, black or white, who could register has done so, und u.t rules adopted have been very strict unC severe. All parties seem to prize registration as they would their birthright, and consider no distance too far to travel, or fatigue and expense too great to encounter, to enjoy such a privilege.

IGNORANCE AND VIOLENCE. Some very amusing as well as exeitii incidents connected with registration have occurred—illustrating most forcibly the ignorance and malice of the inhabitants. One old woman entered the office one morning, and stated "that sho hud come-to be registered that sho was a midwife, and wanted a license to practice, and that tho Board of Registry must giVo her the paper." It was some time before she could be made to understand that the was not a proper subject for registration. At another time, three brothers, outlaws ir. the community, Mashean by name, swore they would drive the d——d R-g-istrar out of the parish, and accordingly cams into town to carry out tho threat.— At this time there were no troops wuhin thirty miles the inhabitants—ever in secret sympathy with the ruffians—were ail armed with rifles and revolvers, nn whisky and intemperate lauguage war .• usod freely to incite a difficulty.

The Registrars prepared themselves accordingly, and went on with their v. ort The outlaws surrounded the office, u.ihg the most violent language, but did not attempt an entrance. Had they done Su, they would have received the contents of four revolvers from tho bands ot' four as determined men as tbe country cart j.reduce. The knowledge of this preparati on and determination prevented "i,ho lutlo difficulty"' that had been contemplated and sent the malignants back to their lairs. Had a '-fuss" occurred, it would have resulted not in the "skfedaHSIing" of the Board of Registrars but in the prob able extermination of thrse or more as in fernal specimens of the native sece«h us the pine woods region can germinate.— You will soe by this that reconstruct!-.'!, is not an easy job among the "un wash and unterritied," and that Mr. Johmon's representations of the loyalty and devotion of his Southern lriona3 is decidedly

THE Middlesex (Mass) Journal contains the following account of a reaping mat:h which recently took place in Wburn. Is there another instance on record where a centenarian undertook a field match with a person twenty-three years his junior "On Tuesday last, the venerable Joshua Converse, aged one hundred years and six months, nnd Mr. Jeiemiah Gilson, aged 77 years, eutered a field of rye belonging to "William H.v ris, Esq., as contestants. They worked with much spirit for the space of twenty or thirty minuUs, and it is needless to say that their work was well and thoroughly done. Mr. Converse did not fall behind his younger rival, and when he Ixid down the sickle he made a band ini bound up a sheaf of rye in an aay and offhanded manner, amid the congratulations and compliments of his friends Mr. Converse is in the enjoyment of e*cellent health at the present time, and bids fair to live to a "good old age," to say the least."

[From Baria Letter.)

Brunett's Preserved Human FJeshj! Every one has heard of the wonderfal discovery of an Italian .surgeon, forfy years ago, by which be petrified human flesh, and was able to cut,the body into transverse sections for the ma/mfiicture of tables'and the like tbe various colors being perfectly preservedand h'oty this sargeon, after completing ht^WVohtioi), died suddenly without having*disclosed the secret. Ever since then other Italiah surgeons, with his specimens before them, have been seeking the lost secret, and in their searches have f«undsomething else. Here is Dr. Brunett, of Padua, who exhibits a large collection of preserved human flesh, healthy and diseased, for which the jury of the exposition on that class^ have granted him, a graatj medaL ./

Great advances havq been'made In pre-! serving anatomieal -epeoHaens by means of chWrate of potash,j afifetiio ^and other preservatives there .are* ,aoni»excellent1, specimens of this kilMH* tkv exposition but if damp, they' 5y'ehtfiHlH^cfe*ay, ajfld. if dry, thev warji, Stft'of place. By M. Brunett's discovery we have none of this. The first glanC^'atrVis preparations gives one the idea of lignousj fibre boiled anjl dried but the colors' are tolerably well pfes4We3. His specimens do not -purified, and are not they look^ on the contrary, dry poitms tmd 'ligiii yndi as if they would last for ages. Here are specimens of healthy and diseased _liver, of healthy and diseased lung, of-healthy and diseased kidney—in fact, of bflrtthy, and diseased tissue fro^i .all^psct^.vf the body. In the ltnig we' see specimShs' of interstitial granulations, of tubercles and of cavities after abscesses. All*this is so plain that a child might learn boW the: lung looks in thevarious diseased states to which it is subject. So too,1 there slices of liver and kidney, showing fatty degeneration and cyrrbosis of .the. tLrst, and liright's dissease of the'latter.

The discovery of Mi-there-fore, though not so wonderful nor so perfect as its lost predecessor, if still an imiuiportant discovery, and when its author sees fit to make it public will render to schools an immense service,

Strength of thc B.ectle..

This insect has just astonished mo by its vast strength"of its body. Every one w'ho has taken the commoti,jbeetle iB his hands knows that his limbs, ff not remarkable for agility, are very powerful but I was not prepared for so S&msohian a feat as that

have just witnessed. When

the insect was brought to ifie/liaying ho box immediately at hand, I was at a loss where to put it until I could kill itj but a quart bottlo ot' milk~being on l,he table, I placed the beetle for the present under tnat, the hollow at the bottom allowing him to stand upright. Presently the beetle began to move dowly aivl glide along the smooth table, propelled by the muscular power of the imprisoned insect, and continued for some timo to perambulate the surface, to the astonishment of all who witnessed it. The weight of the" bottle and contents could n§t have been less than three pounds acd a half, white that of the bottle was about half an ounce, so that it really moved a weight of one hundred and twelve times its own. A better notion than figures can convey will be obtained ol this fact by supposing a lad of fifteen to be imprisoned under the jrrcat bell of St. Paul's, which weighs 12,000 pounds, and to mpye it to "and fro upon a smooth parement, ly pushing within.—
