POPERY- AND PROTESTANTISM.
(From the Dublin Evening Packet.)
In allusion to the procession of the Mayor pf Wa-
terford, the Dublin Evening Mail characteristically
observes :
" Yesterday was a high day for the city of Water-
ford—the celebration, to wit, of the political triumph
which, thanks to Lord Eliot, Popery has obtained over
Protestantism in our principal institutions."
This sentence could not have been penned by any
man alive, save only the Right Hon. Frederick Shaw,
Recorder of Dublin, of whom it may be fairly
written—

" Essence of one mighty sense—
Concentrated impudence—
From earth's centre to the sea,
Nature stinks of that and thee."

In the history of Parliament there is no parallel for
Shaw's advocacy of the third reading of the Irish Mu-
nicipal Corporation Bill, moved by Lord Morpeth, and
opposed by Sir George Sinclair, backed by James
Emerson Tennent.

That audacious act was not understood until it
became known that Shaw had secured his office of
Recorder for life, per agreement with Mr. Solici-
tor-General Woulfe, afterwards Chief Baron of the
Exchequer." Need we advert to the exposure which
took place during the Shaw and Butt controversy,
by the publication of Lord Lyndhurst's letter ?
Need we point out the manner in which the Noble
Lord threw the traitor overboard, by disclosing his
false representations ?

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 7.—Besides the very detailed
treaty by which all the differences with Belgium are
definitely settled, a convention relative to navigation
for five years was signed at the same time.
