THE MEMORY OF ST. DAVID.

Welsh Presbyterian Church-A Pleas-
ant Tea Party.
A very peculiar celebration OF st. David's Day
took place last evening IN the Welsh Presbyterian
church in Thirteenth street. The Rev. DR.. Powell
presided. About eight hundred persons were pres
emit and sat down to q tea table with all the old
fashioned homey forms OF etiquette and convivial-
ity. The Rev. ID. s. Davis made an entertaining
address, and songs and Rotations were rendered
by others OF the party. The leek was one OF the
prominent features and ornaments OF the occasion.

A LARGE STEAM YACHT.

Launching Of Mr.. Henry N. Smiths
Pleasure Graft America-Hcr Dimen-
siOns, Machinery and Intended Accom-
mOdations.
The large steam yacht America, built by Mr..
Henry Steers foot Of India street, Greenpoint, for
Mr.. Henry N. Smith, banker and broker, was sue
cessfully launched yesterday morning. At ten
minutes after eleven O'Clock the employees Of the
yard commenced to knock away the shores, and
at twenty minutes past the elegant vessel began
to move, but SO slowly that it could hardly be per-
ceived by the hundreds Of spectators, among whom
were many ladies' Gently and pleasantly as ever
vessel entered the water she left the ways, and,
were it NOT for bad accident to one OF the ship
carpenters the launch might be recorded as one Of
the most pleasing Of the kind on record. The incl
dent which marred the occasion was the serious
injury to Nicholas Schuman, who was struck in
the face with one OF the few remaining shores lett
to steady the yacht as she glided into the water.
He was promptly cared for by friends.
The dimensions or the new steam yacht are as

Five boys thinking to have little sport
on the ice last Saturday, went for skate
on the Lake. After enjoying themselves
awhile it occurred to them that they were
getting too far from shore, and one can i'm
agine their CONSERVATION on finding them
selves moving rapidly out into the lake,
with large gap of water betwixt the
the beach and the sheet Of ice they were
skating upon. There was no help for it,
and after few plunges in the water, quick
sand and sawdust, they reached the shore
thoroughly disguised with skating out of
season.

that will follow him will be, that he may
soon tire of Kansas and returnto Waba-
