LAUNCH OF THE PBNELOPE.- On Tuesday evening week this splendid specimen of iron ship-building was launched from the Pembroke Dockyard. There was present a far larger concourse of spectators than is usual on such oc- casions. She is, we believe, the first man-of-war ship entirely constructed of iron that has been at this yard. Her length is 320 feet, and she is intended to carry eight guns. The launch was most successfully accomplished, the noble structure passing from the stocks to her des' tined element without the slightest obstruction of anY kind, amid the most enthusiastic cheers of the spectators.
