She went, off the stocks in fine style into the basin,
and was christened " the Venus," by the Chief Com-
missioner CUNNINGHAM, in the midst of the shouts
of the people assembled, many of whom got a duck-
ing from the spray of the water as the vessel glided

'from which the vessel was discharged. A number
of town fashionables, in-splendid equipages, graced
this ceremony. The whale went off, owing to the
