The new launch was yesterday afternoon taken a short distance down the harbor by Mr. Lawley on a trial trip. She was not pushed for speed, but ran smoothly and well until the tail-head guide of the low pressure cylinder broke and obliged her to return to the yard. This accident was a trifling one and the repairs to be made will be simple, so that she will be ready today for another trial. She will probably be brought up to the boat-house on Monday.
