WINCH OF THE PRINCE REGENT AT CHATHAM. An immense multitude pooled into Chatham on Suilidav, to witness the launch' of this first-rate ship. The dimensions of the PaiNcE REGENT are nearly similar to the CALEDONIA, the Howe, and the NEL ION, hut her stern is differently coast. iiLted, being of circuar form, actor ing :to the principle adopted tnder the suggestion of Sit ROBERT SEPPINGS. The galleries winch Ale erected in front of the cabin win dows, afford an idea of greater scope than under the old plan. *flie ale highly ornamented in carved work. The head is decorated by a colossal figure of hit MAJESTY in an Admiral's uniform, with a sword in his t iglu hand. he length of her gun-deck is 205 feet, and her whole le:.gtli 244 feet. Her greatest depth is 64 feet, aito her width fifty-three and a half. Her Tannage '1620 tons, and she will cary 120 guns. She has been ni commission for three months, and viii remain a• the flag-ship of the Port Admiral, fir B. HALLOWELL, by w hom she is commanded. Her ClPtain is W. H. W. PERRY, Esq. Every possible arrangement was u ade, on this occasion, to afford the Public a perfect view of the launch, and every elevated place in the y at d was provided with benches, and all the windows commanding a view of the dock, were Opened for the reception of visitors. These found anions occupants, pi socipally among the female friends of the Commissioners and Officers of the yard. In the river Medway, immediately opposie the launch, was moored the receiving ship of the post, the deck of which was covered with galleries, taste fully decorated, protected bona the weather by flags and sail-cioth. These were destined for the reception oldie Lords of the Admiralty and their friends, as yell a, f it the Commissioners of the Navy and their friends- Every space on board this vessel was tilled; and the effect, when seen from the shore, was ex tremely imposing. On each side of the receiving ship viste innumerable pieasine yachts, including those of the Admit alty and Navy Boards, besides a great va retJ of sailing and other boats of more humble !asses. All displayed flags of various colours; and King's stil l 's in the River were, as usual, distin .• ivished by an exhibition of their gayest 4ressi;ig. The hills on the other side of the River were co veted %Lith spectators; the coup arca altogether was beautifully picturesque. At twelve o'clock vehicles clever ) kind began to pour into the dock-yard, and ton ttter the throng became quite oppressive ; still " tie allowed the utmost latitude of indulgence, rerini-sion was given to view the preparations tt the launch as nearly as was consistent with safety. !he biota of the Royal Marines took their station on !LAW the PRINCE REGENT, and continued to play ',icy airs throughout the morning. It was generally I nderstood, that the launch would take place precisely "tihot pat one, and as that hour approached the feel :rigs tit the multitude became more strongly excited. , tccisely at half-past twelve, the ceremony of proaciiing, and workmen were seen busily engaged in removing the blocks which prevented the motion( of the vast body. At length, precisely at '25 minutes past one, the last stay was removed, and the huge mass moved off the platform in the most majestic manner, and in a few seconds plunged into the stream, amidst the acclaruati:-.ns of the surrounding throng, which were re-echoed from all qmarters, and in which those on board heartily joined. Nothing could exceed the grandeur of the scene. The PRINCE !Isom, which appeared like an immense castle on the bosom of the deep, was soon brought up, by ropes affixed to her for that purpose, and her stately frame remained exposed to the admiration of the .surrounding thou sands, who gazed, with wonder and delight at the beautiful symmetry displayed in so prodigious a work. The River remained corejd with,boats to . a late hour in the evening ; and no sus all flattest Wakpicker.3 up by the watermen in restoritsctutimujirsw. those who had been on board at the time the launch cook place, among whom were an immense number pf ie males.

CRIM. CON. SHERIFFS COURT, EXETER, AIIItTL s. ii.A.Tacsx a STIIIM—This was a writ Of inquiry to asseie da mages in an action brought by Mr. Walter Thomas Ilaydom gentleman lately residing at Topsham, against Mr. David Brines, an officer inahe Navy, for criminal conversation with the plain sirs wife. The defendant had suffered judgment to go by de fault. The plaintiff was married in 1617, to Miss Barham, by whom he had three children, and they lived very happily toge ther until May, 1831, whin Mrs. Haydon eloped with the de fendant. It appeared that the defendant, Mr. Symes, had, from his infancy, formed an attachment for the lady, and that for se veral years he was received and acknOwledged as her lover; that during the time he was at sea Mr. Haydon paid his addresses to her, and, before the marriage, defendant returned, and reason• strafed with the plaintiff, stating his previous engagement ; the marriage, notwithstanding, took place; the defendant married also; he had not seen Mrs. Haydon for two years when he met her by accident, after which they had several i nterviews toge ther, and soon after she eloped with him. They have since been living together in France. The case excited a great deal of in terest. The Jury gave the plaintiff .C.:00 damages. LAstarri-Siater.—Saturday, :Mars Trapp, who had been brought up to this Office on the 2lst of March, for an attempt to murder Mrs. Charlotte Rooks, housekeeper to Mr. .Horne, of Poplar. was this day brought up again, Mrs. Rooks being auffi ciently recovered to attend. The prisoner being placed at the bar, the depositions sworn by Mrs. Rooks on the evening of the dly the at- . tempt was made, when her life was considered in danger, were read over to her as follows, vin.—", I am a -widow, and housekeeper to Mr. Horne, Vestry Clerk of AU Saints, Poplar. and residing in High-street, Poplar: On Friday the 21st March, a little after two &Clock in theatternoon,. I heard a noise at the street door, and on opening it I saw die . prisoner, who asked me whether Mr. Horne was at home? I said no. Ile then asked if Mr. Horses brother was at home? I replied he was not , He then asked for pen and ink, upon which I went into the parlour and he followed me, shutting the street door after him. I turned my backin order to go to a book-case to get pen end ink, and immediately received two blows on the back of qty head which stunned me. I turned round, and the prisonet gave me another blow, and tripping up my heels threw me down, and then beat me with something mulled in a handkerchief. I screamed as violently as I could and called for Philler, a female wins was then in the house. I struggled with the prisoner, and got, hold of his neckcloth. He thrust his hand into my mouth, and IL bit Isis fingers, and still kept hold of him. He then dragged me out of the parlour into he pollage, and there threw me down again, and kept beating me. He then spoke, and said " let go." At that moment I heard a violent knocking at the street-door—still holding hips by his neckcloth, I opened the street-door, and said to the persons assembled outside, " Come in, (or lam being murdered. Seve ral persons then came in, and secured the prisoner. I considered at the sane time, that the prisoner was in fact Mr. Montagu's servant, whom I had seen. When I opened the door to him, I observe.' that be had something wrapped in a handkerchief, which he cut under his arm, while he appeared no be searching for the roe from Mr. Montague."—'l i re hatchet produced was a very small one, and the old silk handkerchief in which it was wrapped at the time the wounds were inflicted was stained with blood. The two cords found on the prisoner bad each a noose on one end. Mrs. Rooks, whose appearance at the Office excited a lively interest in all present, was congratulated by the Magistrates, in 1 the warmest terms, on her fortunate escap e, and hi g hl y corn- plimented on the heroism she bad evinced. She is an extremely well-looking woman, in the prime of life, and of very respect- , able appearance. The-prisoner appeared to be wholly overpowered with the sense of his situation : he leaned his bead on his hand, with which he endeavoured to cover his face, and never once looked up during the examination .

It appeared the soldiers at the , barracks had contriVed to have a. tub of liollands and a tub of Brandy conveyed to them from Newport in a sack, said to be filled with turnip greens, and having that appearance, they succeeded in getting It to the bar rack-room, where several of them drank so exceuively, Keefe died in a few hours after, although every medical assist ance was rendered to him. Many others are in the Hospital its a very deplorable irate. • The recent start in the Corn Markets has been a( but little service to the general run of farmers; and, as usual,' chiefly be nefieial to the capitalist. Some wealthy mealmen and millers, wbu have, had it in their power to avail themselves of the netts sides of the farmer, had laid in large stores of corn at from eight to ten pounds per load, and have, consequent, been realizing , their 50 pc: tent. whilst the farmer, with his empty granariei; has only been a spectator of their good fortune, whilst he la mented his own irretrievable loss.—Hanspatiirearoiside. CORN EXCHANGE, MARK•LANE, APRIL 14. The -airiest, of last week were moderate of mast kinds of Grain, and this morning the additional supply is inconsiderable. Prime parcels of Wheat obtain full as good prices as this day se'unight, but other lt , n4s are slow of sale at last quotations. Barley supports i t s. value, bet there has not been much business done tow dat' Beans appear to be reentering spin, u some parcels have sold at rather better prices. Pees of both descriptions remain the same as bat week. Horse Corn,is much inpdred after, as the present consumption is large, and thereto therefore a' good trade for this article,on rattier higher terms than those of last Mtinday. 4.-In tiour there is no alteration.'
