p.2 The beautiful steamboat Wm. IV is to be launched at Gananoque this forenoon. The John By steamer, built at this place by Mr. Drummond, is now finished, and will be launched early next week.
Mr. Murray, Master in the Royal Navy, has recently arrived at this Dock Yard, from England, in the room of Mr. Taylor, who has gone out upon half pay. We hail this appointment as indicative of the continuance of this important naval establishment, of which so many apprehensions have been lately entertained.
