t`.7en, built for the scivice of the Honourable Last India Com-

many miles surround the banks of the riVer Medway, on
which this doek-yard is situated, afforded a gratifyiognppor-
t . mmy thousands to view a spectacle so vcrt interest-
ing tat the c. mineree of the country. ceremony of chris-
t 'mug the slip was performed in the nigst spiritt.yl and grace-
fil manner by the Lardy of, Dr. Macqueen, of Kidgemount-

given, she glided most majestically into her native element,

exclusively of the growth of Kent and Sussex, and
such e/nzel'ent materials, as well as s tperior workmar ship, she it
scarcely to be equalled, and certainly not to be stirpasse,,„ y any

W. H. BROWN.

FATA L ACCIDENT AT K vsT sINGTo The
young Gentleman who was killed at Kensmg ton on Sunday even-
ing last, by being thrown from his horse (as is supposed), was ou
Tuesday owned. The advertising that his linen was marked
with the initials " A. D." led his friends to a discovery of his
lamentable fat:,. His name is Archibald Douglas, the son of
Douglas, Esq. of Dorset-street, May-fair. It was supposed
that he had been robbed and inhumanly beaten from the cir-
cumstance of his seals and keys being missing, but his wat. it
being left in the fob, and his purse, containing six sovereigns,
remaining in his pocket. it was concluded that the former were
lost at the time he fell front his horse. It appears that he dined
on Sunday at a gentleman's house near Richmond, and left
for town in the evening. A Jury sat on the body on Tuesday
night at Knightsbridge,before Thom/km HIGGS, f: sq. Coron.tT ;
arid there being no witness to prove how the accident occurred,
they returned a verdict—" That the deceased's death was caused
by a fracture on his skull ; but how the injury was produced.
they had no evidence upon which they could determine."
