AT WOOLWICH. It having heen known that the launch of the Clyde frigate, of 46 guns, would take place at Woolwich on Thursday, about the time of high water, at an early hour many hundreds of vehicles of different descriptions were seen on the road to Woolwich. In the course of the morning a detachment belonging r.o the Roy al Ma rines marched into the Dock-yard, where an immense number of elegaraly dressed females, as well as Naval and Military Officers, had assembled, for the purpose of witnessing the intereqing sight. The day was un commonly fine, and the hilarity of the scene was much heightened by the excellent band belonging to the Ms. tines occasionally performing some delightful mar,ial airs. The frigate was temporarily roofed over with light wooden planks, and was decorated with the flag of the Lord High Admiral, the English standard, Union Jack, and an Ensign, and made a most splendid appearance; between 200 and 300 persons were admit ted on board, the greatest portion of which were fe males. The necessary preparations being in readiness, and the water having reached the required height, Mr. Laing. the master carpenter, handed a bottle of wine to Mrs. Furbar, the Lady of Captain Furbar, R.N. who broke it on the bow of the frigate, and the signal being given, at half past one o'clock the dog shores were knocked away, and the Clyde glided from off the slips in a most majestic style, amidst the acclamations of some thousands of persons both on the river and shore, and the band playing the national air of Goa save the Xing. Tile river nas literally covered with boats, and amidst the loude , t cheering the gallant Clyde was wel comed into her native element. In about an hour's time she was warped near to the Dock-head, and the company from en. board landed. She is to be imme diately coppered, and got ready for sea.-1 he Clyde is built upon a plan furnished by Sir Robert Seppings, is cf a light, elegant, and peculiar construction, being round at the stern, the work of which is low, so as to allow the stern chasers to be fired over them.

We regret to state that an accident occurred in the dock-yard which is likely to [move fatal to a fine youth named Thomas Lloyd, between 13 and 14 years of age, the son of a sawyer employad in the dock-yard. The youth and his co.upanions were playing on some planks on the stern cf the Thunderer, 81. guns, when a board shifting its position, the lad fell from a height of nearly 30 feet on the stones below. He was taken up in a lifeless state, and carried home without hopes of recovery. Considerable activity is going on in the va rious departments of the dock-yard, which have, until lately, been constantly inspected by his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence, whose resignation is generally la mented at Woolwich. The Boscawen, 84 guns, is in frame; the Thunderer, 84 guns, on the stocks; the Chichester frigate, of .50 guns, in a forward state. The Blenheim, 74 guns, and the Tartar and Curacoa frigates, are undergoing repairs. A large steam vessel, to be called :he Columbus, is laid down, and the slips lately occupied by the Clyde will be taken op by a frigate, to be called the Medusa. The great mart for sheep at Weyhill, near Andoier, commenced yesterday ; and the hop and pleasure fair today. Frass.—Thursday night a fire broke out on the pre mises of Mr. Cranfield, a wafer-maker, near Bromley, in Kent, which did considerable damage, and destroyed s)me thousand pounds worth of his property. About nine o'clock on the night in question, smoke was ob served issuing from a barn, in which was deposited a thrashing machine, together with several other imple ments cf husband* y, and a quantity of corn. On opening the door of this place, the flames burst torth with great fury, and communicated with several corn and hay stacks which stood near the barn, and which, together with some outbuildings, were destroyed.—Yesterday morning a fire broke out in the premises of Mr. Din more, flax and hemp-dresser, of Waterloo -street, Wel woith Common, and which was not extinguished until considerable damage had beets done to the property.

At seven o'clock, about ninety Gentlemen sat down to a sumptuous entertainment, among whom we re cognized-- _ _ Lord Shelmersdale, J. Blackbutne ' Esq. 1%1. P. J. F. Cawtborne, Esq M.P. Thomas Greene, Esq. M.P. Thomas Leigh, Esq. M.P. the lion. Colonel Cost, Colonel Waller. and other Military Officers, the Mayor of Lancaster, Yates, Esq. the Recorder, the Mem bers of the Council, and several Gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood. tir. Peel sat on the right, and Lord Skelmersdale on the left of his Worship, aho presided with his accus tomed blandness and ability. After the removal of the cloth, the following toasts were given : " His Majesty the King, Duke of Lancaster," four times four, drank with thunders of applause. " Lord Hill, and the Army." The MAYOR rose and called upon the company to 611 their glasses, for he was about to propose the health of a Gentleman whose name was a passport to esteem, and would, he was assured, in that room meet with that at tention to. which it was so justly entitled. It was with pride and pleasure he stood forward to propose the health of the illustrious statesman who had that day honoured Liverpool with his presence, and was now his di,tinguished guest. In the hour of peril, his counsel, his energy, his zeal, and his brilliant talents, were de. voted to the service of his country, and that country now justly regarded him as one of its most fearless champions and brightest ornaments. He would not further delay the exprcssion of their feelings. Hecould not adequately do justice to the subject, and would t'trvt , tre, without further preface, propose the health of " The Right Honourable Robert Peel." Nothing could exceed the enthusiasm which followed the announcement of this toast; the entire company scatted simultaneously from their seats, and it was drunk with three times three, amidst the most deafening ap plause. " One cheer more" was loudly called for, which continued for several minutes. Mr. Pen rose, evidently overpowered by the inten sity of his feelings, and spoke as follows :—Mr. Mayor and Gei.tiemen—There is nothing moie painful and em barrassing than to attempt to give es; ression to feelings which at once overpower by their tome, and deprivetheir posses , or of the capability of doing them adequate jus tice. Such feelings, permit me to state, have been ex died by my visit to Liverpool—(Cheers). If language Ado, ded a sentiment sufficiently trite and familiar, wil lingly would I embrace it to declare all! feel—all I have admired. It does nht do so, and lam in consequence compelled to labour under a fear that I cannot at all convey to you an adequate idea of the impressions ex cited by my visit to your great and floutishing town. I have passed the day in witnessing the wondrous scenes which Liverpool' presents ; and I have been gratified, astonished, and a.low me to add, surprised, at what every where met my eyes. I have frequently heard of the rising greatness of Liverpool, but I never conceived it had vaulted to such an eminence as it now proudly and magnificently holds. Belonging, as I do, to a fa mily intimately connected with the manufactures and commerce of the county, 1 was anzion4 to visit it, and I now fed that, as a public man, I should have been guilty of a dereliction of duty, if I had not inspected a place which is so intimately connected with the interests and prosperity of my country. I was desirous to see a town where the intererti of the commercial world concentrate, arid where the intelligence, the spirit, the enterprise, and the worth of its inhabitants have ennobled the character of the British merchant, and shed such a lustre upon the country—(Great cheers). Gentlemen, I have been gratified; I have viewed your town; its noble institus tions and splendid monuments devoted to charity have been inspected, and I shall leave Liverpool under im• pressions which cannot be easily erased—(Applause) My Honourahle Friend has spoken of my public con duct—(Cheer.); his kindness has magnified my sex• vices as a Minister of the Crown. lam truly grateful for his very flittering observations ; but I hope I may be excused if, at the present moment, I abstain from dwelling upon the subject. My heart is too much over powered with your kindness, and I cannot even at tempt to do justice to my feelings. 1 have been this day identified with the town of Liverpool; my name has been enrolled as one of its freemen, and I therefore must, for the luture, feel a personal interest in its welfare and prosperity—(Cheers). I, however, know the zeal and talents of the Gentleman whom you have chrisen to watch over and guard your interests; therefore it might be deemed o s tent a ti o u s on m y p art if I were to , tender you all the services I could command—(great cheering); but I still must be permitted to declare that I shall esteem it a most fortunate circumstance in my life if I can, by any act of mine, discharge a portioa of the debt of gratitude which your kindness has laid me under—(Cheers). I sow beg leave, Gentlemen, to pro pose a toast interesting to you,—l will say to us All (for I will now take the liberty of calling myself one of yourselves), and every man who feels an interest in the welfare and happiness of the empire—the benefit and advantage of the civilized world. Gentlemen, I 'shall give you, Prosperity to the Town and Trade of LiverpooL" " Gentlemen," said Mr. Pam. in conclusion, when the cheering had somewhat subsided, .r I thank you sincerely for the manner in which you have drank the first toast I have had the honour of proposing in Liverpool, and beg to request you will drink it with three times three;" which was accordingly done amidst the most animating cheers. Its Grace the Duke of Wellington," three times three— (Thunders of applause). " Hi. Majesty's Minister.," three times three—(Applause), Mr. Patty,—l shall faithfully report to my colleagues the honour you have this evening conferred on them in drinking their health: with such demonstrations of re spect and esteem. I feel confident that no Ministers would be worthy to preside over the affairs of this great country, who were indifferent to the opinions of so high and influential a body of Gentlemen as now honour his Majesty's Ministers with their approval. I have before lamented that the duty of returning thanks in their be half had not devolved upon the illu•,trimss individual at their head, but when I shall see my n'.ble colleague and illustrious friend, I shall, when conveying to him the particulars of the gratif y ing scenes I have vi itnessed, not fail to state that he will not adequately receive the meed of applause due to his services as Prime Minister, until he has paid a visit—(charco—to Liverpool and Manche.t r, and witnessed those bursts of approval— those proud tokens of terpect and admiration, which have always followed the announcement a f his name. Mr. PEEL sat down amidst much cheering ; and shortly alter lose and begged permission to orepo4e a toast, which he felt assured would not be deemed in trusive. He was under most particular obln.:ations to the Gentleman whine name he was about to iotroduce; to hint he was indebted far the pleasure which he had derived from this visit; from him he received a hospita• ble and flattering invitation to Liverpool, and as he had had many conversations with him on public questions, he could form some estimate of the zeal and abilities with which he discharges his high and important func tions—(Cheers). His private worth had justly endeared him to his fellow townsmen, and lie e teemed it a most gratifying duty in having an opportority t f proposing the health of a man whose private and pubic character rendered him worthy to be Mayor of Liverpool. " Thomas Colley Porter, Rag. Mayor of Liverpool." (Drank with three times three, amidst great cheering). His Woitstitr, in returning thanks, said, that if on ordinary occasions he left a difficulty in expressing his feelings, he must, in the present instance, be 'opposed to labour under peculiar sensations( lie really fait him self overpowered b . , the kindness and the high terms with which his Right Honourable Guest had introduced his name. Such compliments coming from so distin guished a Gentleman, were to him ito!eed most flatter ing, and called forth his most lively gratitude. He trusted he had done his duty, and the approval of the Honourable Society which surrounded him was the highest mark of respect which he could possibly re ceive—(Cheers). " The .Members for the County." J. BLACKBUHNE, Esq. returned thanks. and said, be had always endeavoured to regulate his Parliamentary conduct according to what he considered the 4 aelfareuf the country, and the upholding of the constitution of the empire. " The Members for the Borough." " Lord Skelmersdale—a name associated by many recollect ons with the welfare and interests of the county." Lord SKELSISRSDALE returned thank., and took that opportunity of stating, that he should ever feel most proud in rendering any services in his power, bath as a landowner and a neighbour, to the town of Liverpool. The MAYOR, in rising to announce the next toast, 'said he was proud to propose the health cf a Gentle man, a native of the county of Lancaster, who in the worst of times stood by his country when that country wanted the presence and assistance of such worthy sons. He had now retired into the calm bosom of domestic life, but had carried with him the respect and esteem of his admiring countrymen. Ile would now give " The venerable Sire of his Right lion. Guest."—(Cheers). Mr. l'xitn—Mr. Mayor and Gentlemen, you have really exhausted all my feelings; but as a son, I feel most thankful for the honour cowerred upon my father; of him, I hope I may say without an imputation cf presumption, that he possesses the true feelings of an Englishman—(Cheers). He never desponded. but resting upon his native energies, looked forward with manly confidence, and was not disappointed. Here, I am sure I need not say that a man may by a career of honourable industry arrive at a high anion in the e s ti• motion of his country. My father's course is known to you all, and proud is his son to‘find that it merits your approbation. " The Members for the borough of Lancaster." Messrs. CAWTHOIaNit and' GRUM' severally returned thanks. Lord SICELMUSDALF, as a freemen of Liverpool, proposed " The health of the Corporation of Liverpool." Mr. Alderman &SPINAL returned thanks. " The Members for the borate, of Newton." Mr. THOMAS LEIGH returned thanks in brief and ape propriate terms. Alderman WRIGHT having claimed permission to give a toast, said, lie was sure he need only mention the name of the illustrious individual to ensure a bumper s he would give " The health of the venerable Earl of Eldon," which he proposed should be drunk with three times tine•—(Great cheering). The MAYOR wished he could adequately do justice to the next toast; he feared, however, such would be im possible, and I:e would therefore, a itinnix preface, give " The health of Mrs. Peel. time distinguished ornament of her sex.' Mr. Pau. returned thanks, and said tnat Mrs. Peel was highly gratified at the cot dill reception that she had met with in Liverpool. She was not very strong, but she would not rest satisfied, notw thstanding the nide. f the weather, until site had viewed all the wonders (If the toss n.

I am about to propose the health of a distinguished townsman Gentleman whose eminence in his profession you all know, and whose talents and varied acquirements are no doubt fully appreciated by the Right Honourable Secretary—(Cheers). Gentlemen, I give you— " The health of Wm. Gregsen, Esq."—Three times three. Mr. GREGSON.—I am sure, Mr. Mayor and Gene& men, I shall be ccnsidered not to deviate from c.end. ur, when I declare that I consider myself quite unde,er viog of this high mark of your respect ar.d esteem. With regard to those measures with which my name has been coupled, I am quite sure that my services in lot. warding their completion have been considerably over rated. There are numbers in the profession to which I have the honour to belong who would execute my duties with greater ability and effect. I only lay claim to zeal, perseverance, and industry, in forwarding the views of the Right Honourable Secretary—(Cheers)...... Of his claims upon the national gratitude, in come queuce of the reforms which he contemplates, I will nut at present dwell; but I cannot avoid observing, that if the study of the law is dry and difficult, the country is more indebted to him, who, though not schooled in its discipline, and who filling a high station in the councils of his Sovereign. still can exhibit a high order of legal talent, and can find time to devise Close' great arrangements which must have such an impertant influence on society. This was the proudest boast in'- the labours of the Right Hon. Gentleman.
