[To THE EDITOR OP THE "SPECTATOR.1 SIR, —Exe Bridge, of which

I send a sketch, is to be destroyed and a single-arch iron bridge put in its place in order to get rid of the steep incline on its west side. A temporary bridge will have to be provided for the traffic while the new one. is being built. I do not see why it should not be made per- manent for the heavy traffic and the present one left for foot passengers and light carriages. It seems a pity to destroy the old bridge if it can possibly be saved.—I am, Sir, &c.,
