Thompson, ar rived at the 6th-street wharf, In this city, at 5:30 o'clock yesterday evening, after a very | rough trip from Philadelphia. Her powers were continually put to the test, but she be- | haved so well and rode the heavy seas so | easily, that she has already won the reputa- | tion of being a safe, rapid, and first-class | steamer, avd is destined to be well patron- | ized in ber Potomac trips. On aceyunt of the | inereasing storymy weather she was delaye! at Fortress Monroe some hours, which made ber arrival here so much later than antict- | = . The officers are, Captain, John R. Youd: mate. Wm. Marmaduke; purser, H. H. Bacon; pilot, Rovert Walters: engineer, | Washington Moran: and coast pilot, W. W. Ingraham. The length of the Thompson is 176 | reet over al]; beam 49 feet 4 inches over all; | with a depth of hold 8 feet 4 inches; eylinder, | W feet stroke; wheel, 7% feet in diameter and 6 feet 10 inches on the face. The upper saloon has sixteen staterooms, including two | bridal staterooms, handsomely furnished. | The lower saloon (aft) cortains eight extra | berths for the use of ladies. The upholster- ing throughout the boat presents an elegant | appearance, and, in fact, nothing 1s omiited | which in any way would further the comfort and enjoyment of the passengers. Theobject of this steamer is to develop the trade on the Potomac river, for which she is in every way admirably fitted. Her trips will be as far down as Cone river, entering all the creeks | of any importance, and it is expected that the vsual run will be about twelve or thir- teen hours. —e——_ Boatixc Norrs.—lt is hoped that a race between the Nassau Club and our Potomacs Will be arranged sometime during ithe stay of the New York boys.
