THE FINEST YACHT AFLOAT.

Mr. W. K. Vanderbilt, according to the New York
Herald, has a laudable ambition to own the largest
and finest steam yacht afloat. Mr. St. Clare Byrne,
an English naval architect, has made the designs;
and the work of construction will begin soon. The
yacht is to be built in America, and the cost will be
not less than 300,000 dols. Mr. Vanderbilt wants
his vessel to be fast, and the designer has provided
for this want. Tl:e hull is to be of steel, and the
fittings are to excel in magnificence those of any craft
yet launched. When*Mr. Vanderbilt's floating palace
is finished he will be able to combine in her the
luxuries of a first-class hotel and more than the speed
of an ordinary railway trait'.
