Many lighters and craft from heavy lading, or other causes, have instantaneously sunk, with the whole of their cargoes. But of late years we have bridges made of iron, which are durable and lightsome ; and from the size of the different pieces which compose them, render them truly the wonder of art. At the West India and London Docks as well as over many other public naviga- tions, are swing bridges, which admit ships of many tons burthen to pass ; these are an improvement on the ancient draw-b...ridge, which is generally found at the entrance of fortified towns. OR INCIDENTS IN LIFE. 19 About two miles below Chatham there is a floating bridge, formed by a number of shallow barges, boarded over ; each side having posts and iron chains, it forms a secure carriage-way for troops and baggage waggons, to cross the M-ed- way ; those parts that form the centre, are moored to either side the river, until they are again wanted. Formerly, almost all foot passengers, horses and carriages, were ferried over rivers, in large flat boats, or barges, call- ed ferry-boats ; and still in various parts, where the water is too broad, or the traf- fic not sufficient to pay for the building of a bridge ; we may see chaises, carts, horses, droves of sheep, oxen, and pas- sengers embark at the same time, and are safely conveyed from one shore to the other.
