The Saratoga.

--This nymph of the waters gaily sailed up to her wharf at Rocketts yesterday morning, and attracted the admiration of a large crowd who were expecting her.--She is built after the model of the Niagara, and is about the same size. Both steamers belong to the New York and Virginia Steamship Line, and are admirably adapted to the trade for which they are intended. The officers of the Saratoga are skillful and accommodating, and passengers travelling on her will surely be courteously treated. We learn that on her voyage to this place the Saratoga broke some of her machinery, which will account for her delay in arriving here. She will return to New York this afternoon.
