Extract from the Agents at Genoa, dated the 23d of July :
" On the 21st inst. the Board of Health resolved to remove
the quarantine that had been imposed on all vessels comin:4
from Great Britain ; and the George and Thomas, Prat, which
arrived that day from London, was immediately admitted t..)
free pratique, as were the other British vessels then performing
quarantine in the harbour. Among them is the Duchess of
Beaufort, from Bristol, which sprung a leak three days after
sailing, and still makes about 12 inches of water per hour. It
is supposed part of her cargo has sustained damage."

LARGE TIMBER SHIP.
QUEBEC, JUNE 28, 1825.—The large ship, the Baron of
Renfrew, was safely launched on Saturday last, the 25th, at
one o'clock in the afternoon. She had, in the attempt, on We
Saturday previous, stopped on her ways, owing to the grease
being consumed by the fire. She went mnjestically into the
water, and afterwards drove up with the flown; tide near the
town. On the tide ebbing, the Hercules tow-boat took her
down the channel of St. Lawrence, North of the Island of Or.
leans, where she was anchored a little to the North West of the
anchorage-ground of the Columbus.—The Baron of Ref/PAZO
looks much better in the water than the Columbus did, her
breadth being ten feet greater. She exactly corresponds, in
shape, with the Columbus: hut is, upon the whole, superior
in im.ny respects to her. It is understood that she will not
sail before the end of July.
