LAUNCH OF THE STEAMSHIP UNITED STATES
The magnificent steamship United States, whose
dimensions, tonnage, &C., and full description
of which we gave short time since, was
launched yesterday from the yard of Mr.. VIM.
II. Webb.
The launch was announced to take place at
after that time the noble vessel was afoat. She
glided gracefully into the water and hoated like
a swan, her symmetrical model and gigantic
proportions attracting universal observation and
comment
As this vessel is intended for the New Orleans
trade, her builders spared no pains to have her
draught light as possible. In this they succeed
ed perfectly, for when she was towed to Messrs.
Secor 4 Co.'s dock, where she will receive her
engines and machinery, she drew only seven
and half feet on an even keel. When we
consider the immense size of this vessel. the
wonder is that her draught is SO light. With
.er machinery, cargo and coal on board, all ready
tor sea, it is supposed that she will not draw
more than fifteen feet and half-much less
than that of any vessel of her tonnage afioat.
From all appearance, the United States must
be remarkably stiff vessel-for after she reach
ed the middle of tns river and got broadside 10
the wind, she did not list in the least.
Many thousands Of persons witnessed the
launch; and from the time she left the ways UNI
til she was moored at the dock, there were dis
charges from a cannon, placed on the top OF
high derrick on Messrs. Secor's wharf, and
bursts of huzzaing from the multitude assembled
on the piers, rigging, and houses around
