Stevens, of Hoboken, her builder, by Lord De9la.
quiere, who sold her to Lord Tempietown. who in
turn sold her to the Messrs. Pritchard shipbuders
at North Fleet, on the Thames, two miles above
Gravesend. Lord Templetown sunk the Yacht by
accident near the yard of the Messrs Pritchard
and it was only after she had lain in that condition
for sometime that she was bought by these gentle
men, 1t is probable that the sum paid for her was
insignificant, but Lord Templetown has asked for
and obtained the first promise for purchase after
she has again been put in repair. Mr.. Jerome
who is spending the winter in Paris, lately visited
the yard of the Messrs. Prtehard in order to in
sPect the boat and he found her on the stocks in
the workmen's hands, undergoing complete repair
from top to bottom. More than half the timbers of
her Keel were found to be rotten and are being re-
placed, but they are restoring her exactly upon the
original American model--not a line of her keel is
to be changed When finished and rugged she is to
stand precisely as she did the day OF her great race
Ii Lord Tempetown does not insist upon the re-
purchase OF the boat, and it is thought he will not
the Messrs Prtchard will accept the terms offered
by, Mr.; Jerome If bought by Mr.. j. she will be
taken back to the United States
Mr.. Ullman has, we learn, engaged for his coming
season new French prima donna-Mlle ST. Ur-
pam. 1he lady is pleasing, if not great artist;
she mas clear soprano voice, well cultivated, but
not very sympathetic in Tone She has been sing
ing at the Italian opera in Paris with Mario where
we have often heard her in the lighter roles of Sc
rious opera. As Gilda, in yerds Rigoleno, she
was very successful, singing in that opera with
Mario and the splendid baritone Corsi She is both
young and pretty. Mr.. Ullman has also engaged
Suslnl, the magnificent basso, who sang here with
Grisi and Mario. An engagement has also been en-
tered into with Gottschalk the pianist, Viyier the
horn player, and Wieniasky, a violinist, who has
created some excitement at Juen's concerts, will
also most probably visit this country under ul-
mans auspices.-N. Y. Post.
