1 THE NAVY. Trowsinss—Eighteen guns, new iron-clad steamer— ‘This splendid craft was launcyed fromthe yard of Wm- romp, Philadelphia, om the 9th istant. She is the first iron-clad vessel ever butit at Philadelphia, and never was there anything occurred at Philadelphia in ship- Jaunching, since the launeh of the Pennsylvania, to ex- cite so much public interest as that which ‘atrended the gliding of tho Irousides into her native ment. She is the first iren-plated seagoing war steamer of large size built by the United States government, and is constructed from plans and Specifications presented to the Navy Department, last September by Morrick & Sons, of Philadelphia, who are the sole contractors with the government. They in turn eontracted with Crump & Sons; also with the Bristol’ Forge and Bronen & Co,, of Pitisburg, for the four anda ‘half inch plating, reserving to themselves the construc- tion of the machinery and the general arrangement of the several parts. Tho coutract is dated October 15, and ‘the vessel is to be ready forsteam July 15. Chief Fn. gineer W. W. Wood, of the navy, superintended the ma- ehinery and platiog, and Nawal Constructor Heary Hoo- ver, the hull. She is twothundred and forty feet long, firy-cight feet six inches wide and twenty-tive feet deep, being3,250 tons, and having a berth, gun and spar deck— the Jatter being shotproof, Her frames are of white oak, filled in solid and caulked, and the avorage thickness of ber sides is twenty inches The iron ‘plating commences at a point four feet below her water line and extends to her spar deck. The machinery .consists of two horizontal direct ‘ection steam engines, with cylinders of afty inches di- ameter and thirty inches stroke, intended to make eighty-five ‘revolutions per minute, and drive a brass fowr-bladed propeller of thirteen fect diumeter and @hteen fect pitch. The boilers are four in number (Qberizontal tubular), each seventeen’ fect front, eleven feet deep and eleven feet high, of a collective force of 1,600. horses. The armament will consist of sixteen eleven-inch Dahlgren guns on the gun deck and two two Aundred-pounder Parroit guns on the spar deck. The port- {holes will be closed by iron shutters five inches thick, ‘worked from the inside. As this is a seageing steamer, intended to sail as well as steam, she will Bave three masts and be bark rigged, her topmasts and yards Deing so arranged that in action they are lowered, and eave simply the three lower masts in view. When in action all the men on board are protected from shot or ghel!, and are below the spar deck; the commander only dmabove that deck, and he occupies a shuiproof iron Jookout, which rises above the spar deck, and frem which he can seo all surrounding objects and by signals communicate with the officers Below. Unlike the Monitor and Galena, this vessel ean carry a large crew, sufitiently so to bourd and cap tare any vessol. Impenetrable to shot and shell, she will sock close action, and by.means of her iron prow givk or by her heavy guns capture her opponent. Her Light draft of water, sixteen feet, will enabie her to enter aloar Southern harbors. Even Moultrie aud Sumer can be-vimted by her, and she may beable to make an im- paeesion on those forts before they are repossessed by the United States. The country is mainly indebted to Commodore Jose;h Smith, of the Bureau of Yards and Docks at Washington, fer the construction of this vessel, ae well as the two which have preceded her. It was by Dis exertions that the money was appropriated by Con- grees, and, as President of the Board of Naval Officers on . fwon-clad stoamers, he has devoted much time to their construction. ‘Massacuuserrs—Eight guns.—The United States des- patch steamer Massachusetts will be ready to sail from ‘the Navy Yard, Brooklyn, about the 29th instant, tocom- manicate with the North and Sovth Atlantic blockading squadrons, taking the mails, stores, &c.—not going be. yond Cape Canaveral. Norm Canouna, thirty-four guns—Receiving ship.— ‘This vessel! has iately undergone a thorough renovation, and is now as trim and healthy a craft as any receiving ship in the service. Commander Meade is an energetic ‘odieer, and the greatest praise ia due him for the master- Jy. manner in which he has conductod the business of the ship, as well as the great facility he has afforded for the instruction of the sailors, marines and officers whe come ‘wnder his supervision. The gunners’ class at present mumborg fifty-three, of: whom thirty-three are acting masters, and twenty master’s mates, and are under the Mnstructions of Lieutenants Barrett and Boweu. Acting Master Christopher George Taaffe is the instructor of the broad and small sword exercise, and Patrick Doyle, marine, the drill master of the seamen. ‘Tho band of the North Carolina at present is tho best we have ever heard on that vessel. There are some thirty pieces, under the direction of Mr. Male. Rocruiting has been somewhat brisker for the past ‘woek—the number of recruits on the North Carolina at present being one hundred and forty. There are also on Doard this ship sixty men from prize crows, thirty-six Delonging to the Congress and twelve to the Roanoke, +mnaking a total of two hundred and forty-eight men. The ship’s crew numbers cighty-flve, independent of the ofligers, comprising fifteen petty officers, ten seamen, ‘twenty ordinary seamen and forty landsmen. The oii cers of the ship are as follows:— Commander—K. W. Mead». Lieutenant ant! Executive Oficer—H. C, Flagg. as. Saidars. ‘Assi tant Surgeon—W ¥. Plant, Paymasier—W. T. Marcy icting Master-—Wm.

McAlpine. ’ ‘The North Carolina also has fifty-seven marines, com. prising three sergeants, four corporals, two acting ¢or- porals, three musiciaua and forty-five privates. Roawoxk—Ordered to ve iron-clad.—The work on this ‘veesel is progressing as rapidly as ever. The holes fo, the spikes to fasten the armor are drilled, and the Plating was commenced on Thursday. Her upper deck ealso being calked. Qnly three plates have deen put on gofar. She is to be provided with three turrets, ‘similar to that of the Monitor. As there is great difticul” ty im procuring iron to manufacture the pilates, in all probability she will not be soady for some four or five months. From the immense .sreight of her armor it is impossible now to come to any estimate of what hor draught will be; but one thingie certain, she will be the ‘most formidable iron-clad vessel ever floated. Sanmwe—forty eight gune—Sleop-of-war.—The frigate . Babine returned to the Navy Yend last wook from her anchorago off the Battery. @nithe 30th ult. she left her Moorings at the yard, under orders to proceed to Hamp- ‘ton Roads, to take part in the combined attack on the webeis at Yorktown, and anchored in the North river, to proceed to sea at six o’clock next morning at the turn _ Of the tide; but ber orders were connterman:lod by the department an receipt of the intelligence of the evacua- tion of thoir stronghold by the rebels. By direction from the Ordnance Department, her heawy:batlery is to be further improwed preparatory so ber departure, and, for convenience, itevas deemed necessary for her to yo to ‘the yard. Her armament at present consists of one one- hundred-ponnder rifled Parrot pivot gun on her fortcas- Ble, one o ght-ine& solid shot pivet gun on quarter deck, @ightoen short thie.y-twos on the apar deck, ten Dahigren pipe-inch shell ga and eighteen long wiirty-twos on her gun deck.

Brooklyn Navy 4@RAND FETE ON BOARD THe UNT SABINE. ‘The Navy Yard, Braoklyn, presented quite a lively ap. _prarapoe yesterday afternoon, ovcasioned by a grand rd. STATES FRIGATE \ iy NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, MAY 24, 1862—TRIPLE SHEET. fete given by Commander Ringgold on board the United States frigate Sabino, which is amchored off the buey. Although ihe ship did not display the amount of bunting usual! on such occasions, yet the general appearance was entirely in conflict with what would be expected when grim war stares us in the face. The spar deck was cov" ered with a large awning ;the guns all removed, the deck as clean and bright as a new pin, and the blue jackets and officers dressed in their best. About twelve o'clock several carriages arrived in the yard, freighted with the gentler sex, and driven by coachinen decked in liveries of tho most aristocratic style. Theag guests, as they arrived, wore taken on Doard the Sabine in boats manned by tho best sailors> dregsed in their summer uniforms, steered by “ middies”” in full regalia, at about two o’clock Commodore Pauld- ing went on board, and.was received with a salute of thirteen guns from the Sabine, North Carolina and the Cop dock, the bands on the ships playing ‘Hail to the Chief,” and tho marines presenting arms. The Freuch Admiral arrived in his own boat short!y afterwards, and was received with tho appropriate salutes, the French flag flying fromthe fore, Commodore Meade, of the North Carolina, and Captain Almy, Executive Officer of the Yard, were also among the guests. Altogether, the scene was very en- livening, and reflects the greatest credit upon Commander Ringgold and all concerned. The dancing, diuner and music, were superb, and all retired well pleased, Commodore Paulding issued the following order on Friday:— Writers and other persons on per diem pay, who are excused from muster, wiil report to the Clerk of the Yard wheu they come mand when they go out of the Yard. Acting Master J. W. Stapleford has deen ordered to the steam gunboat Adirondack, and Acting Master's Muto Joseph Butler to the despatch steam guuboat Massache- setts, ‘ Gunner George Tivians has been transferred from the Navy Yard to the frigate Sabine, and Gunoor Moses A. Lane appointed to this port. Gunner Thomas P. Venable has gone in the steamship Coatzacoalcos, m charge of ammunition for the Gulf squadron. ‘Throe iron-clad yesseis are being built for the govern- mont at St. Louis, at a cost of $450,000. Two of the hulls are nearly completed at Cairo. MAKINE BARRACKS. Recruiting at this station has been very slow forthe past month.

Fasmion PLEASURE GROUND AS90CLATION—TROTTING, Friday, May 23.—Purso $100, two mile heats, in baraess. H. Woodruff entered s, m. Lady Emma. ae PD. Tallman entered 8. m. Jilt. D. Piifer entered b. g. Sam. ‘The above was.a capital trot between Emma and Jilt, and afforded unusual excitement among their respective backers. Pool selling was in vogue previous to the start, tn which both mares were tayorites in turn. Ina one hundred dollar pool Jilt sold for sixty dollars, Emma for thirty-five dollars, while in a two hundred dollar pool Emma brought ove hundred and fifty-five dollars and Jilt one hundred and ten dollars, ‘At the start, however, Emma had the call at odds, although in scoring Jilt exhibited a turn of speed that astonished tho backers of Emma. The scoring was long and te- dious. When the word was given, Jilt went off with Jead, Emma trailing, which she continued to do for a mile and ahalf. She then went up and challenged Jilt for the heat, when the latter was taken off her feet. Emma then begam to act queer for a short time, giving the lead to Jilt, but, getting on tothe homestretch, she set- tied down and made a gallant burst, landing at the score a wiuner by a veck in 5:18. The first mile was trotted in 2:35, and the ‘ast in 2:43. In the second heat Jilt started with the lead; but, breaking up soon afterwards, Emma wout in front, where she lay but a short time, and it seemed that Hiram’s policy was to trail, as in the previn heat, fora mieund abalf. The contest did not tariy act in until the nags were appreaching the half mile jole on the last nile. Here Emma closed, and ihe pair trot. ted to the three-quarter poie as if yoked together. ing on the homestretch, Emma cut ese from itt, and came hore a wituer by balf a dozen leugths, making the j heat in 5:2134.

Parson Brownlow in Boston. Bostox, May 23, 1862. “The reception of Parson Brownlow this evening wasof a most enthusiastic character. The Music Hall was crowde!. He was introduced by Governor Andrew, who remarked that never since the beginning of our national existence and of democratic and constitutienal liberty had the people of Massachusetts been without a full par- ticipation im the sacrifices occasioned by the war. Yet it had fallen to the lotof the Union men and women at the South to bear in their persons and in their fortunes the greatest sufferings in tho present traitorous and rebellious warfare against the government. ‘These sufferers in the cause of liberty had the most earnest sympathy of the people of Boston, and mone more so than the prophet and apostle of liberty, who had been rescued out 02 the very den of lions. Men and brethren, said he, hear ye him, and swear anew your devotion to your country’s enuse. The address of Parson Brownlow was substantially that delivered in other citics, and many of 1s most striking pagsages wore received with pro- longed applause. His frankness in saying that be was the advocate of securing by the government all the propert ot loyal men, of every description, was received wit great approbation, but mach more’ so that which fot- lowed it: that it was the solomn and religious duty of the government to confiscate ail the property of rebeis, and that the rebellion should be put down by coercion, subja- gation and extermination, if need be. His exnression of detestation for Northern secessionists was received with equal approbation. ‘whe address was listened to with intense interest. and in altuding to the speech which he said he prepared ia anticination of his being hung, he remarked that it had | neve: been published, but he had presented it to the editor of one of the paners in this city. ‘The address occt,ied nearly two hours in its defivery.

Indeed itis petty strongly hinted that the affair is nothing more nor less than a second edition of the Sickles tragedy. The particulars attending the alleged intimacy of Mrs. Corson and Major Watrous have not transpired, but it is pre- sumed the whole thing will be developed in a day or Cerson, who, it will be recollected, made his escape at the time of the shooting, has not been arrested, but his friends imagine that he will deliver himself up, and save the police any further trouble. They all unite in saying that Watro.s was served right; and should the matter ever come up for investigation they look forward to Mr. Corson’s acqiittal, The condition of the wounded man was unchanged yes- terday. He was reported to be very low last evening, and the physicians are said to entertain but little hope of his recovery. No persons are allowed to converse with him save the doctor and the attending nurses, and then as few words as possible are spoken for fear of bringing on any excitement, Up to last evening there was no indication of any wandering. Un the contrary, the patient ap- peared quite rational and talked of his approaching end ‘with unusual calinness, Another Serious Shooting Case.

Before be had a chance to shoot the cats, however, two customers dropped in and called for segars. Laying the weapon on the counter, Quiggs turned aside for the purpose of helping the men, when one of them grasped the gun and discharged the contents into the head and face of the proprietor, wounding him severely. ‘The would be assassins then fled, and succeeded in making good their escape before Quiggs could raise an alarm, ‘The red man was taken to the New York Hospital, where he row lies in a precarious condition. No reason whatoyer can be assigned for the perpetration of the dastardly act, ‘The assailants were unknown to Quiggs, but he thinks he will be able to identify them in the event of their arrest City Intelligence. -REUEP FOR IRELAND—DiKETING OF InIsH RESIDENTS.—AD adjourned meeting of irish residents of this city was held at the Astor House at five o'clock yesterdag after- noon, for the purpose of inaugurating @ movement to provide relief for the people of Ireland, who are suffering from the famine at present existing in that couatry.

The following is a comparative statement of the im- ports of foreign dry goods at New York for the week ending May 22 and since January 1:— For the Week. 1860, 1861. 1362, - Entered at the port.$1,702,345 568,983 470,142 ‘Thrown on market.. 1,639,665 270,897 «761,112 Rutered'ct the port48,317415 28,215,905 20,128,807 red al @ port.. c 6 4 ‘Thrown on market.43,776,036 27,194,807 23,226,017 By the above statement it will be seon that the good® entered at this port the past week were some less than they were for the same time last year, and much less than for the same period in 1860. The amount thrown upon the market exceeded that for the same time last year, but it was less than for tho same time in 1860. The aggregates since the Ist of January last, although under those for the same time in the two previous years, were nevertheless quite large. Of the goods entered for consumption, manufactures of wool amounted to$150,176; do, of eotton, $65,535; do. of silks, $118,381; do, of flax, $43,062; and miscellaneous articles, $43,662. Total, $416,275. ‘Ihe export trade, as will be seen from the following table, during the past week, has beon extremely limited:. $5408 Since January 1... seeseeessescocecses +0207 ‘The trade among the distributing houses continued to be frregalar. For sume descriptions the demand was. steady and prices sustained, while for others more or less sluggishness continued to prevail, with heaviness and Meltons in prices. Fancy cassimeres have been nite active, with iucreased activity in mills to supply tho demand, Piain domestic cottom goods were firmly heid, while sales were light. Under the pressure high prices for raw cotton, manufacturers were indispoved, as a general thing, to make any concession in prices. Were such goods offer- ed at lower rates, increased sales would be the result, Heavy brown sheetings and shirtings were held at 14¢., while they could be freey sold at 18c. a 183gc. Bleached goods, drills and other plain cot- ton fabrics were dull and sales light. Light colored and fancy cassimeres and Me!tons were scarce and in good request. A fair-business in the trade gene- ruly was doing for Caitiornia, Clothing houses were also manufacturing to some extent for the California market. ‘This is a wrong season of tho year w send goods in large quantities to the South, even if'no obstruc- tions were in the way. Hence, the business in that direction wus limited. In foreign gouds prices were with- out material change. The class most in requestand rather scarce were ribbons, poult de soies, grap de Naples, light colored faucy cassiineres anc seasouable and fash- jouab.e styles of ladies’ dress goods. Black eilks were inactive and prices duil, Good styles of fancy woollens were scarce. Cotton and German light woollen hosiery was im fair demand. Several auctiva sales have been held during the week, some of which were of conside- Tavie maguitude. On the 6th Messrs. Van Wyck, Town- send & Co, sold 250 lots of plain, black and cvlored Paris shawis of the mpertation of Messrs. Hennequin & Co. ; the plain goous sold wt an advance over previous prices, aud some of the sielkis sold higher, Vest goods dragged, were dull,and in many cases were passed. The de- sirabie dress goods were all sold, and # gvod many lots were duplicated. ‘ine sales of Messrs. Hennequin & Co.’ bareges, gren- adinesand Donna Marias, were much below the first public sales of the season, but realized afuir profit. Sales of Real Estate. by Adrian H. Muller.
