The New Stbam Fbisatb "Chatta
nooga." The United States steam frigate Chat
lanooqa is now completed and ready for sea.
Her engines have been subjected to the usual
ninety-six hour trials at the Nary Yard in our
citj, and have fully justified expectation. Htte
will start on her trial trip in a few days, and on
her return will probably make a trip to Europe.
She will be commanded by Capialn J. McKinstry,
a gentleman well known lor his prompt sup
pression of the naval bounty frauds, Bud the
sweeping reform which he instituted when he
took command of the receiving ship North Caro
lina, in 1864. All the officers of the Gliattanooga
belong to the regular naval service, and she U
laid to ba the only vessel in commission
which has no voluuteer officers. The Chat
tanooga havinir been constructed solely
with a view to speed, it 1s confidently
expected that with her great length, sharp
lines, and powerful engine she will make at least
thirteen knots an hour. She was built by
Messrs. Cramp & Sons, ot Kensington, and is a
wooden propeller frigate of the lb lowing dimen
sions: Length, 330 feet; breadth of beam, 41
feet; depth of hold, 21 feet; draught of water
when fully equipped, 17 feet; 3233 tons burden.
She is the sharpest propeller man-of-war ever
built in this country, and if there is anything in
the model she has all the qualities of the fleetest
vessel aflout. Her armament consists ot sixteen
broadside gun', ten and eleven calibre, and one
rifle pivot on the forecastle. The following Is a
complete list of the officers who hare thus far
teen ordered to the Chattanooga:
Captain, James P. McKtnstry : Lien ten ant Com
