Ihc bridge at Washington. It is built upon 98 sectton^, 

 each consisting of five piles, is 2187 feet long, and 33 feet 

 wide. The piles are defended Irom the worm, most of 

 them by lead, and some by copper. There are two side 

 walks, which are to be lighted by forty lamps. The 

 causeway at the extremity of the bridge in St. Phiiip^s 

 Parish is 1300 feet long, at the extremity in St. Andiews,

 the kind ever attempted in the Southern States, and has 

 been perfomed with unprecedented zeal and rapidity,

AMERICAN MILLSTONE MANUFACTORY. 



An extensive bed of Stone has lately been discovered 

 hy Mr. Joseph Sigfried, in Allen Township, of a quality 

 superior to the French bur stone. 



Two enterprising millstone Manufacturers, Messrs. 

 Spong and Christian of Reading, Berks county, came to 

 view the stone in March last, and prepared and trans- 

 ported to Reading, as many as completed two pair of 

 Mill stones which on trial surpasses even their most san- 

 guine expectation — They have since, at a moderate rate 

 secured for a term of years the valuable part of the bed, 

 and are now working it to great advantage — ipwards 

 of sixty pair of these millstones have already been spo- 

 ken for. Northampton Farmer.
