Xiberpcol tatibarb. CORRESPONDENT Monday Morning. THE event of he week, and an important event it has been, WAS the great Protestant demonstration made on ay at Freemaso Hall, against Popery in every shape n every land, and particularly against its fountain the Maynooth College. It was head in these realms truly a magnificent assemblage of calm, dignified, deter- d men, ba heart and soul in carrying a great principle, and in putting ry, Mr. Colquhotv ~ord M its time- of free ineor an end to a crying inco: garded in a relit DOS or a political The arsuments adduced by Lord Shaftes- rid the other speakers, were unan- They proved that the Maynooth grant was the grot ciple, but that it ori- as even defended on the miserable pre- It was ;ht desirable to propi- rough them to gain the But the priests had not been of principle, nor t 6• people he Protestant Queen.

Lord Ducie, who voted for the grant, had the manliness .re that he has completely 1 his opinion, and at he will never zgain give his er niat was more needed "Men's evil manners live in brass : their virtues We write in water." We are anticipating here rare fun from the disclosures which will be made in the Irish Court when Birch, of the World newspaper, pulls up Lord Clarendon, Sir William Somerville's private secretary, Sir Thomas Redington, and hosts of others conversant with the back-stair doings and under-hand intrigues of Dublin Castle. The revela tions of St. Alban's were rich enough, but they will sink into insignificance before the secrets of that odious sink of venality and corruption—the Castle of Dublin—should they be exposed to publi• gaze. As Birch has retained Messrs. Whiteside and Keogh for his counsel, we may expect an entertaining examination of the Irish State worthies, and a pretty disclosure of their private practices. I believe I may state that is in the contemplation of the protection party to start a new daily newspaper in London, as they are not satisfied with the organs that are in existence. They have a good sound cause to fight, and all they want is first-rate ability both in Parliament and in the press to fight it triumphantly. A general election will give them champions in Parliament, and they have made arrangements, pecuniary and other, to have a duly authorised daily newspaper champion in the metropolis. If what I have heard be true, they have secured most experienced and able editors, and the new journal will be fully able to cope with The Times in capital and in the strength of its political writing. THE NEW CLIPPER SHIP "JOHN STUART.' The Americans have decided that clipper ships can be built to pay as well as dull, slow, weight-carrying craft. Those vessels constructed for the China trade, which, a year ago, created such a furor, have proved more advantageously successful than the most sanguine could have anticipated, and have led the world to think that such tender craft may be profitably employed in other trades ; and with this view they are building clipper ships in every direction. We have already announced the arrival of one—the Racer, and we here notice the second of a purposed sleet between this port and New York : she .sled the John Stuart, and is in point of beauty, of model, workmanship and general equipment, unsurpassed by anything afloat; and it is evident that her builders, Messrs. Perim, Patterson and Stark, of Williamsburgb, have lost none of their well-earned reputation in the con struction of such splendid craft. Numbers of connoisseurs who have visited her since her arrival pronounce her the beau ideal of nautical beauty ; for while fast sailing has been the great aim, she also presents the more important element of a staunch well-built sea-boat. Her appearance on the water is graceful and beautiful, and gives but little idea of her enormous tonnage. Her side is as round as an apple; and her entrance, whieh is said to exactly resemble that of the yacht America, is so fine, and so gradually increased, that it is not easy to tell where "clipping in" commences. Her run is of course equally clean. Her counter stern is neatly rounded, and has a light and easy appearance. In the centre is a bust of John Stuart, en circled by a bold floral carving, which is carried out to the turn of the quarter. The stem, which has a rake of about 5 feet to the load line, is carried out in an elegant sweep for about 16 feet ; and the planking shooting out to the same extent, saves the necessity of trail boards, and gives greater deck space. She has a billet-head neatly fashioned and ornamented with carvings in unison with those on the stern. Her sides, too, are lightened by mouldings run ning fore and aft. On deck the John Stuart has immense space ; her poop is raised about 3 feet, to give height to the cabin. Prong the fore hatch, running aft, is a spacious house, which contains three galleys, carpenter's shop, ice houses, and an infirmary, as also four entrances to the 'tween decks. Having thus far described the exterior appearance of this giant-ship, we may state that so perfect is the symmetry maintained in all her proportions, so beautifully taunt and light, yet strong and powerful is her sparring and rigging, that her whole embodiment presents a sight which, in the enthusiasm of admiration, curtains from the spectator the gigantic work of the architect of this floating castle. It will be astounding to the public when we state that, with all the simple neatness of her exterior portrai ture, her tonnage exceeds that of any vessel that has hitherto graced the noble docks of the Mersey. The John Stuart is, by measurement, 1,700 tons ; and, as a matter of course, will, from her model, be considerably over 2,000 tons burthen. Her keel is 205 feet, and over all she measures 2281 feet. She bas a beam (carried well down to the turn of the bilge) of 43 feet on deck ; and from the coomings to the ceiling she has a depth of 29 feet. With these proportions she carries a few " strong sticks," and the amount of " muslin" generally spread, for she stands, we learn, any quantity of sail, which may be estimated from the dimensions of her masts and spars which are as follows : Mizen ~ Yards Crotche The diameter mizen ' Inches 32 6 4 31 sts is as follow Top. Top Gal. Royal, 11 9 11 9 One great object in the construction of ships, in the Liverpool trade, is that of gaining efficient accommoda tion, securing vcntilation, and otherwise increasing the comforts of emigrants; and in this peculiar point the John Stuart presents the maximum of perfection • nothing that expense could provide or ingenuity sugges t been neglected. The ship is herself ventilated by the patent syphon ventilators, and these are also adapted to secure fresh air in every department. The cabin of the John Stuart is not large, nor is it decorated to the gorgeous gingerbread extent that is generally seen. It is, how ever, panelled in beautiful satin wood, zebra-wood co lumns with gold-mounted caps intervening between each, and has about it an appearance that denotes comfort. The state rooms exceed in size, and surpass in arrangement and light, any we have hitherto seen. In the second cabin, which is forward of the main saloon, and a roomy vestibule devoted to the captain, officers, surgeon, and, . . we may add, doctor, there has been no lack of judgment. The state-rooms are all separate, and arranged for single berths—a desideratum not hitherto adopted, and one that will prove highly beneficial, and no doubt acceptable to the better class of emigrants. In the steerage, too, the berths are all what are termed " permanent iron hanging berths," occupying little room, and highly desirable in many points. Indeed we may say, that in fitting out the John Stuart the excellencies of all her predecessors have been adopted, and many novelties introduced. She has water tanks for a double voyage, double-lift pump all of copper, fire engines, and, in fine, everything that tends to secu rity and safety. The frame of the John Stuart is live oak ; the timbering of that material and white oak, the planking choicest American timbers, and all are com bined in a style that does credit to " the rising country." The John Stuart is, we hear, to form one of the line originated by her commander, Captain Watson Ferris, an individual whose seamanship, during many trying occasions in the past twenty years, has secured to him the honoured title of a thorough sailor, while his urbane manner has gained him the not less enviable title of gentleman. The John Stuart is consigned to Messrs. A. Taylor and Co. amusements. We have the Princess's and Haymarket COMMERCIAL AND MONETARY NEWS. Theatres in full operation, besides the minors and the trans-Thamesians. We have an occa;:onal performance at the beautiful little aristocratic q.ii. s MONDAY NIGHT. -.......,..,,, nnite, me :sr.

The city articles of yesterday's Times contains the following :—" The suspension of Messrs. Quarles Harris and Sons, one of the oldest and most important houses in the wine trade, was announced this morning. Their business was exten sive, and it is feared that their liabilities willl prove large. The principal proportion, however, will probably fall in Oporto, where they had also an establishment. Last year the firm stood second on the list of exporters from Por tugal, the total shipped by them having been 3046 pipes." The operations in our share market have this week again been on the same extensive scale as for some weeks back, and prices generally have continued steadily to advance. Towards the end of last week there was a slight pause, and some tendency to reaction ; but this has vanished, and the week closes to-day at its best—a strong market, a scarcity of stock to supply the demand, (real and speculative,) and every prospect of the adyance pro gressing. The stocks chiefly in favour at present are Dovers, Eastern Counties, Yorkshire, Midlands, and Thirsks. London and North-westerns have advanced two per cent. during the last two days, and both this stock and the quarters are asked for at the advance. Dutch Rhenish have advanced considerably, and are very scarce. It is said that this company have obtained the long expected grant from the government, and some other advantages which they have long been suitors for, which should more than double their present price. Other foreign shares have been less active this week, owing to the unsettled state of the continent. in told shares a large business is being done. Agna Fries and Nouveau Mondes being still the favourites. It is said that these, the former, an English company of the highest respectability, and the latter, a French one of the same rank, have prospects quite unprecedented in the history of joint stock companies' and if a tithe of the promises of their prospectuses, verified as they are by persons of the highest honour, be fulfilled, the fortunate shareholders in these companies may "rest their oars" when their ships arrive. We have had a large business to-day at the quotations following, the market closing very good : London stock, 1181 t 1 ; Do. new quarters, 314 3f p. : ' Do. fifths, 3k p. • She ffi eld stock, 341 k I 1; Do. 4:6 new pref., 9-16 p. • Midland stock, 57 61 1 ; Dover stock, 21/ 2 Ij< 2 ; Birkenhead, Lancashire, & Cheshire, 1011 d. • Do. late Chester and Birkenhe a d, 171 ;.

A better feeling has manifested itself in the markets for Colonial and Foreign Produce, and prices generally have exhibited an upward tendency, This remark applies to Sugar and Coffee, in which the sales have been to a pretty large extent. A fair inquiry has prevailed for Rice, and considerable sales of Dyewoods have been effected. Cotton continues to attract much attention, and as the stock in this port is gradually melting away, holders are enabled to obtain advancing prices. During the week ending Nov. 27, the middling and common qualities of American advanced from id. to Id. per lb, Other de scriptions were also a point against the buyer, so that the value of fair Cotton was declared by the Brokers' Com mittee on Friday to be 51d, for Uplands, sld. for Mobiles, and 51d. for Orleans; Middling Upland, 41d., do. Mobiles, 5d., do. Orleans, 51d. The week's transactions were -59,240 bales, of which the trade took 29,640, leaving to ex porters and speculators, 19,600. The imports during the same period amounted to 55,257, so that the stock in hand amounts to 394.546 bales of all descriptions, against 489,170, at the same period last year. The relative values of the " Middling " and " Fair " qualities are now in strange contrast with the summer quotations, when a dif ference of about 11d. per lb. existed. Messrs. Joseph Robinson and Co., in their monthly circular of yesterday, publish the following remarks with respect to the wool trade:—" Since issue of our previous circular, more inquiry is apparent •, last month's opera tions are marked with a greater degree of activity, and bad the stocks been of an average nature, more business would have transpired. The dulness prevalent in most of the manufacturing districts is changing to confidence, evidences are yet extant of the stillness, but these must soon be removed in the absence of diminished imports. Several dealers and consumers seem to have paid close attention to the limited supply, and have feared not to purchase, every symptom of change leads to the supposi tion that they have acted rightly, for it is evident the raw material will not be lower, but the reverse." The reports respecting the state of trade in the manu facturing districts are more lively. At Manchester the demand for Goods and Yarns is healthy, and, as orders, both from America and the Continent are coming forward pretty freely, manufacturers are enabled to obtain higher prices. The following circular, from a highly respectable house in that city, thus reports the trade in Cotton manu factures : "Considerable activity has prevailed in our Goods market since ourlast, and the weekly transactions have been extensive. The last advices from China being favourable, a large business has been done in 40-inch Shirtings for that quarter, and the market is now cleared of all stocks from 7lbs. upwards, and producers, in many cases, making to order for some weeks. The prices which have been obtained for the above description of goods show an advance upon previous rates of something like 3d. to 4d. per piece. The demand for 9-8 Shirtings and 7.8 and 9-8 Printers of the better qualities, continues good, and rather higher prices are obtainable. There is no change in Long Cloths and T. Cloths since last week, being moderately sought after in the heavier weights especially. In Yarns we have to report a large business, at advanced prices, most spinners having engaged themselves for some time forward. The improvement may be quoted generally at about *d. per lb." The annual meeting of the Royal Flax Society of Ireland was held at Belfast a few days ago, under the most favour able auspices. The report, which is a lengthy document, alludes to the subject of flax cotton, and, in very confident terms, expresses an opinion that it is totally unfit for the purposes intended. It is gratifying to find that the society still continues to prosper, and that flax cultivation is being extended more and more every year. The present is truly an age of competition. Not only have we rival railway lines, but it is now an established fact, that we are about to experience the benefit of rival telegraphs. Already we find that the magnetic electric telegraph, the invention of Mr. Henley, is about to be brought into practical operation between Manchester and Liverpool, via Bolton and Wigan. It is only a few weeks since the managing engineer, Mr. Lay, set to work on the line ; and, from inquiries made, we learn that he has all but completed his task, and that messages will, in the ' course of a week or two, be transmitted through the dis tricts already named. We understand that the tariff of charges is to be very low ; and as the invention is said to be simple in its operation, less liable to derangement, expeditious in the mode of manipulation, and the signals easily deciphered, we are confident that it will prove a use ful boon to the districts through which it passes. Ulti mately, the company purposes to extend the line to Lon don. The British Electric Telegraph (Heighton's patent) is also about to be applied along a portion of the York shire and Lancashire line. When all these are properly at work, we hope to hear no more of the murmurs which have prevailed as to excessive charges, and incorrect and , dilatory transmission of messages. YORKSHIRE.

The rev. gentleman has this year selected for the subject of his discourse the prophecies contained in the Book of Daniel, and on Sunday be minutely described the wonders of the great city of Babylon of old. At the conclusion of his sermon Mr. Arthure eloquently and feelingly alluded to the rcent death of a member of the congregation, whom he deservedly eulogised as a lady possessed of every Christian attribute, who had held the respect of all classes, and in whom " the poor and needy had lost a warm friend." INFANT ORPHAN ASYLUM, WANSTEAD.—An adver tisement relative to this truly charitable and Christian in stitution will be found in another column. This institu tion has especial claims upon the sympathies of the public, the object proposed being to take bereaved infants, if needful, from the very cradle, and to fulfil all the parental responsibilities until fourteen or fifteen years of age, qua lifying the children to pursue for themselves some path of industry in whatever station the providence of God may assign them.
