At a few minute's pad one o'clock, the fhnnrls _ and ports were cut and the (hip moved (lowly and majestically into her proper element. The re gimental bands of music on board, immediately ftruek up, " God save the King," and " Rule Britannia," in which they were heartily joined by the multitude, who rent the air with theii (houts and acclamations. In the evening, a splendid ball was given in ho nour of the launch, at the Assembly Rooms in 110 cheller. We do not hear that any accident lias happened, which, confideting the number ®f per sons who came to view the grand fpe&acle, is a very fortunate circumstance. —The builders fay they sever had a better launch.

A very embarrafltng oircumllance has, we hear, within these few days occurred at the Cullom hoiife refpe&ing the feizute of one of the American vef fel« lately arrived here with wine, &c. from Bour deaux. As it was generally underrtood that the cargoes of these (hips were not only the property ci hjJVbj_!V'«/wijcAs in this kingdom, but were re mittances in kind, the only one that they had an opportunity of obtaining fqr sums of money due from the hollile nation antecedent to the commence ment of the war, a seizure and a eonfequent sale wcr« £0"e through, pro forma, to enable the own rr , to get their goods ; a fei/ing officer, has, how ever, tiiqtfrht to raise a furn of money for the purpose ofoul bidding the proprietors of the last cargo that has arrived, and by this means fully a vaik'd liiniTclf of his pri*' 1 .

NEW-YORK, Oaober 31. Foreign papers mention that the king of Prufiia infills, in treating with France for the Emperor, on the refipration of the country between the Rhine and the Meufe.

THE BRIDGE. n We feel a pleasure in announcing that the Bridge . at this place over the river Raritan is ft> far eora plete as to render it paflable for carriages ; and we • congratulate our fellow citizens that this nfeful j, and arduous undertaking has been accomplished vvit-h such expedition, and without any diftrefling accident occurring to the workmen. The'railings, ■ foot-walks and gate are however not wholly com plete ; but no impediment or obltacle arises to tra vellers from the want of these. The length of this grand ftru&urc is about 330 j s yards; its width fufficient for carriages to pass t each other wyh ease, exclusive of a convenient foot walk.—Thr wood-work of this magnificent build ing rests upon thirteen large and lofty pillars, in ' eluding the two hutments, which for strength and ' elegance, we are warranted in declaring, far exceed 3 any thing of the kind in America. A draw is placed over the deepefl water, for permitting vefTels to pass and repafs. From each extreme a gentle afceHt is observable until it meets e the centre, which, befidea its ufefulnefs in permit ting the water to drain off, has a pleasing effect upon the observer.—The whole of the ftrufture exhibits a specimen of workmanlhip, combining a (Irength and elegance, which at once refleftt the higlieft hauor upon the ingenuity of the builders .. and the liberality of the proprietors. 0 Tt is to be regre? ted that the burden of this great public convenience'fhould be borne by a few indi viduals, a? tliere is room for believing that a suita ble rate per cent, will not be realized for the great advances, pains and trouble to which the proprie tors have been fubjefted. n BALTIMORE, O&ober 31. y The ship John, Capt.
