On Tuesday the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Council of this city, and a numerobs company of ladies and gentlemen, met at the Assembly Rooms, Leith, and about three o'clock moved in procession to the Ferry-boat-stain, preceded by a band of musk, where two very fine smacks, decorated with the colours of the dill:rent European nations, lay ready to receive them. The Magistrates and company having gone on board, a gun WAS fired as a signal to unmoor, when the vessels proceeded towards the Dock. and at twenty minutes past three, the lift:bier, belonging to the Union Shipping Cismdaey ervered, followed by the Berel,ese, belongs:{ tote Edinburgh and Leith Shipping Company, ariial.t the reiterated acclamations of an immense number of spectators, and repeated discharges of artillety from the fort at Leith, His Majesty', ships of war in Leith Roads, and guns stationed on the grays the dock.— Ile two vessels were attended by the barge of Admiral Vashon, commanding on this station. with that of Mr B. use, of the naval yard, and se veral others, all manned by their respective crews, and finely decorate.] for the occasion, and fol lowed by anotbensmack belonging to the Union Shipping Company, and a tine brig called. the Pea chit, belonging to Mr. John Hay. The two smacks were aftei wards moored en the South side of the Dock, when tne Led Provost and Magisnates were addressed by ihelderer of the Merchant Company as follows : " My Lord Provost—ln the sane of the Company sae Merchants. of Edinburgh, this Chamber of COMIAIPICS of Edvibli g h, and the 1 ratfichere.. , Leith, who lasee the deepest inter .st in the sdeodid work *loth we bare bee. corseinplat ,g, 1 laeg fear., thi• occasion, to offer mu most eiridoil corigratulatim,• to your Lordship.

This dock, the first of the kind in North Britain, has been wholly executed within high water mark, which added greatly to the difficulty and expellee of the undertaking. The space occupied by Lee Jock is above five acres, but, including the ground on its sides and ends, upwards of fifteen acres have hero taken from the sea ; on these parts it is pro posed to construn graving docks, - building slips, sheds, and warehouses. The sea wall of this dock being exposed to the accurnuiated swell from the German Ocean, re quired to be very strong ; it is accordingly one of the strongest pieces of masonry we have even, and is wholly composed of large Ashler stones, from a quarry at Rosptb, belonging to the Earl of Hope tett*, laid in a mortar of pozzolano. The stones en the outside of the wall are bound together by chain-bars of iron, inserted in the different courses horizontally, and conceded by vertical bars of the same metal; thus uniting the whole in one com ernes mass. The binding the work in this manner with iron was a very necessary measure, as during the building of the wall, it frequently happened. thus stones of several tons wet were displaced by the heavy eastern swell. quay wails, and those of the entrance lock, are also fuse Massy pieces of masonry, and the whole are so construaed. that every stone forms part of an arch. This dock is only the first part of a most magni ficent plan, extending to Newhaven. where the principal entrance is intended to be made to the largest dock. which will have depth of water sof fineot to contain frigates of the first size ; and the whole, when completed, will form one of the fines: rules of docks in the world. Ihe present dock. and other works connected with it, hare occupied five years in the seventies, the first stone Laving been laid on the 14th May 1301, under the Magistracy of Sir William Penes, who has also had the singular good fortune to see the work fiuished, and to preside on the present occasion. The plans of this work are the production of Mr. John Rennie, of London, civil engineer, and they have been executed under the superintendence of Mr. John Paterson. A guard of the Argyleshire, Aberdeenshire, and Galloway militia, lined the streets, and kept the quays of the docks ; aad it gives us much pleasure to add, that no accidet.t happened on the occasion. The business commenced yesterday, in the new Wet Dock, at, Leith, which was opened on Tues. day. The Edinburgh and Leith Shipping Com pany's smack Ifee.aret, from London, James Myths Master, arrived in Leith Roads on Tuesday after nano, shortly after the procession at opening the Dock ended.

He, however, i.ad an objeMsos to take, which arose our of the constralion of the AR of Par iiarnest, in the first part of the Third Seetion, which provided against coosbinatioos, the words are, " Every Journeyman. Manotaftuter, Workman, or other peruse, veto shall combine together," Itc.lt.c. The Learned Counsel's argument was, that the Legislature. in framing the Aft, Dever had in am temptation the female sex. He quoted several Mt% to substantiate the objeuion, parucularly that which provides against emiwszlemem, *nem it heed been decided by one of the Judges, that the female sea were not designated.
