Launch of tab Adriatic. New York
April! . The launching of the steamship
Adriatic, for the Collins lino, came off this
morning, and presented one of the finest
sights I ever witnessed. Estimates of the
.number of persons assembled to witness
the launch run as high as seventy thousand,
jnd considering that every available spot,
im to thu roofs of houses and the topmasts
Jcl'n.near hr. had its occunanl, there
canuot be much exaggeration in this figure.
The Adriatic i not quite so long aa the
new steamship Persia, of the Cunard line,
but in oilier respect and in capacity abe
bai the advantage, and she may therefore
be designated the largest steamship yet
afloat. Her extreme leogth is 355 feet,
breadth of beam 50 feet, and depth of hold
88 feet 2 iochet. Her capacity, according
in nnstom-houte measurement, is about
3,700 tons, but by Carpenters' measure
