LENGTH AND HEIGHT.—"The steamer Oregon," says the N.Y. Sun, "if placed on end, would be fifty feet higher than the cross on Trinity Church." The Oregon is 330 feet long, and of course the Trinity Church spire is 280 feet high. But few people would judge from the appearance of the two, however, that the length of the steamer was equal to the height of the church spire.
