OVER AND UNDER THE RIVERS

Mew \oik HcraM.
As the proposal to demolish ( ho
mil records . was not proMutl before
ho Icdslrttttro and the act , that was
visscil authorized niololy iho JjoOO-
100 that the truslecs of the Hrooklyn
jridgo wanted for the Brooklyn np *
iro.icli , it is doomed probable that tlio
cork on tlio Now Yotk si'lo will
> o linishud on tlib lines that arc imit
ated by thopar.iputs where they touch
3hillmtu street. The onginei-rs and
rphitccts had hoped that the trustees
night bo empowered to ncquiro such
iroperly on both sidui of the Now
'ork approach ass'onld allbrd space
or widening Iho structure nnd carry-
tig the purnpot up to Chatham street
vith an imposing curve , in keeping
vith the monumental architecture of
ho approach between William nnd
'carl streets. But the legislature haslet
lot agreed with those who desired ( o
nako tlio1 Now York approach to the
> ridge highly ornamental , and the
ngincors will complete this part of
lie great work within its existing
KHiiiclarios.
Thcuo ivro in plain View to every
icrson who chooses to stop and look
lirough tlio fence at the Chatlmm
troet sidowalki Seen from that poi | t
lie bridge seems to approach the street
t Jin elevation of about three feet
bovo the street grade. But tlio pr.rt
f the structure that is thun elevated
s only the promenade. It is a series
f brick arches tlint will support the
iljht masonry of a foot-walk seven-
eon feet in width. This promenade is
o bo reached by means of stone attips
rom the street rade , On one side
vill bo the carriage-way , eighteen feet
nd nine inches in width , and on the
ithor aide of the promenade will belie
lie railway , twelve feet and ton inch-
s in width. Both the carriage-Way
nd the railway will bo on the street
rade. The arches that will suppoit
, ho promenade their ends are now
pen to the street will afford roomer
or carrying water and gas-pipes and
> orhaps electric and other wires , but
ho conjecture that has been made bye
o many persons who have guessed as
o their purpose namely , that the
tulloss cables that will propel the cars
vill run in tlio darkness of there vaults
rom Chatham street to the Pearl
treot anchorage is very wide of tha
lark. The vaults cannot bo made
vailablo for that purpose.
I'ASSENQEU STATIONS.
The width of the promenade is pro-
isely the exterior width of the pas-
cngor stations on both sides ot the
river. Both are to bo of iron On
ho Now York side the passenger sta-
ion will rise from the point at which
; ho end of the arched vaults under
; ho promenade are seen , a few feet
Listant from the Chatham street side
walk. It is to bo an ornamented but
of course not an imposing structure ,
oventcon feet in widthexteriorly , ,
and from three hundred to four hiyi-
drod feet in length , or as much
ongor as may bo nccessarj to ac
commodate all the passengers who
may at any one time desire to enter
ho cars. It will probably bo.two
stories in height , as one story above
ho public part of the atructuro will
always bo sulKcient for the
mrposcs of the o dicers of
ho bridge and their employes.
The lower story will bo , of course ,
only a promenade opening to a broad ,
airy foot-walk for those who may
choose to ride shanks' mare over the
1,987 foot from Chatham street to
Bands. There is to bo an iron sub
station at Franklin square , with stair
cases connecting with the "L" road.
Tlio station on the Brooklyn side will
open at Sands stre&t to a spacious
> loza that is to bo formed by tearing
Iowa a block of ouildings from
Sands street up the hill to High
troot. This plaza is to bo paved for
arriago and other traffic , and much
> f the space overhead will , it is bo-
ioved , bo occupied as the western terminus -
minus of the Brooklyn "L" roads.
? ho trustees of the great bridge have
already invited plans for the depots
of the bridgo.
TIME OK COMI'LBTON.
Aa yon descend the hillside from
Columbia heights and roach the level
of the roofs of the fivo-Btory struo-
, ures in Fulton street , Brooklyn , and
ook thence up to the roadway of the
rcat bridge suspended far above those
oofs , the stupendousness of the work
Hirsts upon you. The cables , high
above the roadway , did not give yoil
, hin sense of loftiness ; but the road-
vay , now overhanging Water street ,
does. Of the floor beams of this high-
vay in the clouds , of which there are
o be about five hundred , 280 wore in
ilaco yesterday seventy on each side
if both towers. Engineers Martin
nnd Poino confess their annoyance at
ho tardiness of the contractor in
delivering the steel for the suspended
uperstructuro ; but they confidently
oxpet the contractors to deliver . ' 500
cms a month henceforward , nnd
at this rate of delivery and
hero is no reason to doubt that the
steel \\ill bo delivered to this amount
the engineers will guarantee thu
completion of the promenade by mid-
October , and of the cariiago way a
month later. It is understood that
, hat the jn-pmonado will bo opened to
lie public immediately upon its com-
ilotion , and that prommmdors will
jnjoy the privilege of BCOWK the pro-
, 'rcss of the workmen completing the
jarriago way and the railway thicc
feet nine incites below the promenade ,
[ t is conjectured that until the novel
ty wears off , that promenade , higl
above the masts of the shipping , wil
servo instead of many a trip to Concj
Island and Hockaway.
ThoEdgemoor company are deliver
ing about three hundred tons of uteo
a month. About a thousand more
tons are required to make up the 10 ,
DOO tons of stool of which the BUS
ponded superstructure will bo com
posed. No time is lost in putting tin
material in place after its arrival. I
is therefore easy to believe that yet
may walk from the city hall in Nev
York to the city hall in Brooklyn b ;
tho'middlo of October next.
Tlio iion bridge over Fiospcc
street , Brooklyn , is almost completed
and the builders are about to begii
on the Main street bridge. Nex
they will throw an iron bndgo eye
York street , and by that time the material
torial for the handsome structure Mm
is to span Franklin square , Nev
York , will bo ready for its place.
The trustee * have reached no de
cision as to motive power.
Tltf. TUNNKI , ANI > THIS OTHEU imHKJB ,
Under the now organization of the
Hudson River Tunnel compony tin

The Wadding Ring.
'rom the Now York Timed.
There is manifested in some parts of
west a desire tu abolish the wedding
ring. This is not strange. The wed
ding-ring has been a fruitful source of
woes unnumbornd , which any heaven-
y goddess might shifj with great ap-
ilauso should oho feel so disposed.
Talcs of the utmost horror have been
-old of bridegrooms who , at the nio-
nont when the clergyman pauses for
.he ring , cannot find it. Nothing has
ever shown half so much skill in self-
conccalmcnt as the wedding-ring. It
will hide in the corner of , a waistcoat
socket in such a way as to defy dis-
: every , and it will transport itself
'rom ono pocket to another , thus cum-
lolling the bridegroom to ransack
avcry ono of thirteen distinct pockets.
Nervous men and who is not nervous
when personally undergoing the mar
riage ceromonyV frequently drop the
wedding ring on the church lloor ,
whore it will roll the entire length of
the building to conceal itsolt in an inac
cessible crack. Sometime ! ) it finds or
makes a hole in thopockctby means of
which it penetrates into the interior
of the bridegroom's clothing , and
even into his boots ; so that it is quite
a common occuronco for a wedding
to bo intorruotod while the bride
groom retires behind the pulpit and
lovotcs half an hour to searching for
the ring and to getting his boots on
again. As men are notoriously mar
ried in now boots , and as a now boot
when once removed cannot always be
dragged on again without boat-hooks ,
; ho wedding guests nro sometimes
treated to the spectacle of a bride-
jroom going through the last half of
, ho ceremony with one boot in its
proper place and the other hold in his
.oft hand. There was a time when
: ho careful western man always kept
; hu wedding-ring in his mouth until
the clergyman called for it , but this
custom has now fallen into disuse.
Fastidious clergymen and brides , who
lad contracted the conventional ideas
of the east , objected to the use of n
warm , moist ring , Moreover , in his
embarrassment the bridegroom often
'ailed to distinguish between the riny
and his tobacco , and fonijd. when it
was too late , that ho had that is to
lay , that the ring was missing.
Thoii , too , there wore several Unfor
tunate bridegrooms who unintention
ally swallowed wedding-rings , and
; hus laid themselves open to miscon
struction. There was ono man , re
ported to bo of miserly habits , who ,
doubtless inadvertently swallowed n
wedding-ring known to bo of consider
able value , and choked to death in the
process. This would naturally have
seriously inconvenienced the bride had
not her brothers two practical men
been present. With great presence ol
mind the brothers removed the clicked
bridegroom to the rear of the church ,
where they recovered the ring with tlieii
liunting'knives , and , pressing an eligi
bio young man into the service , oil'
ablod their sorrowing sister to bo hap-
pyily married after a delay of only ton
minutes. Still , one instance lilu tint
docs not compensate for tlio man )
cases in which swallowed rings havi
produced sulluting and inconvenience ,
and it is no wonder that the euston
of holdnmtho ring in the mouth hu :
become obsolete.
The freedom of divorce which pro1
vails in many of our states must in
evitably render the wedding-ring un <
popular. Every time a wife is divorcee
she naturally wishes to take oil' hei
ring. If it is made small enough tc
remain safely on the finger , i ( is verj
apt io become BO tight at the end o
two or three months of matrimonia
telicity that it cannot be removed
Hence , witlf a view to contigoricies
the Illinois wife always has her rinj
made several sizes too largo for her
and keeps it in place with a smallei
ring , technically known us the guard
ring , It is evident , however , that tin
guard-ring is liable to become permanently
manontly fixed on the finger , so tha
this device , specious us it may appear
is really useless. _ The only rouicdy i
to abolish wedding-rings altogether
and to omit from the marriage cere
mony all illusion to the ring.

furious Method * of KoopiiiK Cool.
t. Louis Kcpukllc.vi ,
It is really lamentable that many
looplo who say their prayers \\ith
motion , who iwy the butcher and the
; rocer regularly , and who are rational
n all other respects , should cheritih a
luhihHin rogaulini ; the summer sol-
tioo. They ncquiro a ciuiims infalu-
ition for meteorological repot ts ,
vhicli aro. known to bo uniformly
also , for most of them are tnaniifac-
ured at Chicago , chiolly with refer-
nee to the interests of board of trade
peculators. They study the ther-
nometer incessantly , and fancy that
icoauso the mercury ia high they are
varm. The heat is all in their im-
gination. This averment is strict ! } '
ciiintilic. The wet Id is profoundly
ndebtud to medical science for a
real deal that it docs not know ,
kledical science has ustortcd time and
g.xiu that there ia not th'o least difli-
ulty in keeping cool if one only makes
ip his mind , and the system to bo fol-
owed in keeping one's mind made up
s distinctly laid down. It includes :
Diet ;
Clothing ;
Environment ;
Cheerful and contented contcmpla-
ion.

The most eminent virtue of medi
cal science is its unity. Some dys-
> optic cynic , who preferred to bo his

o a physician , has written a caustic
remark about doctors disagreeing , the
experience of all who have placed life ,
iborty and the pursuit of happiness
n their hands , bears testimony to
heir consistency und concord. In no
> art of the numerous treaties on
lygiono is the more beautifully illua-
rated thun in the regulations for
cooping cool. Thcao regulations , like
certain studies in the colleges , are
optional , but not at all antithotical.

The simplicity of the regimen pro
posed must greatly advance the medial -
: al profession in popular esteem ; for
.00 many doctois are addicted to
wrapping up their pills and powders
in unknown tongues , nnd advising
icoplo to consume wholesale drug
itores full of mysterious herbs and
decoctions whoso character is
suspicious because of the effort tocon-
ceat it. Anybody can take Iho ad
vice of either of the eminent authori
ties quoted , and the Globe-Democrat
will not send in a bill for the infer
mation.

If wo had not the doctors to guide
us in those vital matters there would
bo some danger of our going astray.
Their keen vigilance and profound
knowledge are of incalculable benefit
to mankind , particularly in view of
their perfect unanimity ,
