THE VALETTA STEAM-SHIP.—SOUTHAMPTON,. TOTS, of;
DAY.—TheP first trial trip, in which the prinuiPw: gtieit
neesular and Oriental Company have taken part tuce
w ship Valetta, has just taken place. In this ins
boµ;
pleasure was evidently considered as not injurious
ness, and instead of selecting the measured mile in St°
Bay, as is usual on similar occasions, a trip to
was decided upon, as being a means by which all neueset,l
ends might be gained. The party comprised the pririeri
portion of the directors of the company, CaPtain
due, the superintendent ; A. Lamb, Esq., chief engineer;
and other gentlemen, whose business on the oclop
guaranteed their presence. All the gentlemen Were
d
board the night previous to the vessel's departure, 0%1
at 3.40 a.m. yesterday the Valetta got under weigh,eo
Cherbourt
reached Cherbourg about 10.30 the same morning, wi,f for
she remained until this day. At 3.45 a.m. she A

Southampton, and got abreast of the Needles
for
deducting about a quarter of an hour for stli
pages, gave her a run of about 60 miles in 4 hours ant
15 minutes. About eleven o'clock the Valetta was
*,
her moorings in the docks. When she started t."
Valetta was drawing 1 lft. 10in. forward and 12ft. 4in.
aft ; and fromthe consumption of coals during the volee
she had upon her return lightened about 14 ill. ,
mean average time of her speed was 4 min. 2 sec.,
being r
at the rate of 14.958 knots, or 17 1-5 statute miles P
hour. During the stay of the gentlemen at Cherbourg
they inspected the new ship Austerlitz, of 100 guns, seha
other of the lions in connection with the place.
Valetta is one of the chef d'ceuvres of Mr. Maresh esli;
blishment, at Bla,ckwall. Her machinery, whicvi
previously stated to be 400-horse power, was manufac:
tured by Messrs. Penn and Sons, with Lamb's patent flu'
boiler. ta.t•necl
