THE PACKET-SHIP VIRGINIAN.—If the
building of new ships may be taken as a proof of the
prosperity of the shipping interest, the ship-owners of the
United States must he highly prosperous. Almost every
week fresh specimens of the naval architecture of the Ame-
ricans arrive in our harbour, where they excite the admi-
ration and draw forth the encomiums of visitors. The
most recent specimen of the skill of the American ship-
wrights is the paaket-ship Virginian, commanded by
Captain ISAAC HARRIS, late of the Birmingham. This
tine vessel is upwards of 600 tons burthen.—Her
Her model is beautiful, and gives her, though so large a
ship, a light and elegant appearance. She admeasnres
133 i feet from stem to stern, and across the beam 33 ;
her deck, which is flush, is, therefore, roomy, affording
ample space for the hen coops, the cow and the ice-house,
and all the other accommodations usual on board these
floating hotels, which packet-ships may be properly de-
nominated. Strength is not, however, in any instance,
sacrificed to mere beauty of appearance. The beams,
knees, &c. of the Virginian are so strong as, we simple
landsmen should imagine, almost to defy the violence of
the elements to whose fury she will he exposed. The ca-
bins of this fine vessel combine, in a high degree, utility
with elegance. The main cabin is splendid, all the rich
American cabinet woods being finely combined and ve-
neered so as to render the tout ensemble beautiful in the
extreme ; while the exquisite polish on the furniture
makes it as brilliant as the furniture of a cabinet in a gen-
tleman's mansion. The ladies' cabin is remarkably pretty,
and their state-rooms, in consequence of the great breadth
of the vessel, more roomy than in most of the old packet
ships. A bust of the late Mr. JxrfansoN, which is said
to present a striking likeness of the original, ornaments
the stern of the Virginian, with a figure of Fame on the
right and another of Ceres on the left of the deceased
statesman. This tine ship now lies in the St. George's
Duck, at the bottom of Water-street ; after to-morrow,
she will, for a few days, lie in No. 2, Graving Dock,
west side of the Dry Dock. She will sail for New York
on the Bth of next montb.—Liverpool

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The cannonading and bombardment of Antwerp, as we
anticipated yesterday, has this morning ended in smoke.
still, if we look to the preparations on the other side,
flaking both by Holland and Belgium for the commence-
nent of hostilities, one would imagine that event is not
ar distant. Part of the Dutch army is drawing near
llaestrecht to relieve and change that garrison. An im-
portant movement has taken place in the corps of the
Dutch army stationed about Endhoven,which, as well as a
•onsideralde corps d'ormoc, has taken up a position on the
frontiers approaching Belgium.

On the psrt of the Belgians, we find they are also taking
treasures, and concentrating their army. The brigades
ander G neral Magnan are to form a junction with that
.1 General Goethal, and proceed to the extreme fron-
iers, to be in readiness to unite with the other divisions.
‘ battering train has left Brussels for Louva:s, and the
Polish General, Prodzinski, in the Belgian service, has
,Iso left to inspect the frontiers. All these movements
have caused great alarm at Brussels, owing to the Dutch
trmy having extended their line from Endlioven, East
[drab int, to Oostbourg, Zealand. Still it is the opinion of the
vell.intortned, that a war between the two parties will be
irevented from taking place.
The information received from Oporto to the `2lst inst.
of a chequered complexion; both parties fight bravely,
rut the constant attacks of Don Miguel's troops, although
bey are defeated in every one of their attempts, must
c rnsiderably diminish the strength of Don Pedro ; there-
!ore, without he receives reinforcements ere the rainy sea-
son sets in, he will be in a critical situation.
