TEAM SHIP LAuNcu.—Yesterday morning the
Directors of the General Steam Navigation Company, at-
tended by a highly respectable party of gentlemen connected
with the commercial marine of this port, met at the Dock-yard
"of Messrs. Wigram, Green, and Wigram, to witness the
launch of the new steam ship " Caledonia." The weather,
although rather inclement, did not appear to damp the interest
of the party who assembled to witness that which must be ac-
knowledged a truly national spectacle— the first embrace of a
British ship with her destined element. A few minutes pre-
vious to the knocking away of the dog shores, she was chris-
tened by Wolverley Attwood, Esq., the Chairman of the Com-
pany, and on the signal being given she gallantly rode down
the slip, and bounded on to the waters without the slightest
accident. As the science of steam ship building is rapidly
progressing, it may not be uninteresting to our to our maritime
readers to, give the dimensions of this splendid vessel. Her
length of keel is 171 feet, and her length aloft 191 feet ; the
breadth of her beam is 29 feet, and over the paddles bl feet;
depth of bold is 17 feet 6 inches; burden 750 tons; and her
engines 220 horse power. The Caledonia has an appropriate
figure head, and bears on her stern the arms of England united
with the Thistle, and the motto "wha daur meddle wi' me?"
She has been built in the short space of three months by
Messrs. Wigram, and will immediately take in her engines,
and is expected to be ready for sea in a month. Another ves-
sel for the same Company is already far advanced on the next
o
slip, and next week one of 600 tons will be laid down in the
Brunswick
