FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Conttitutionuel of Thursday.)
PAstts, Nov. 11.—We have just received, by
.*p-ress, the following news from Madrid, dated
,tbe 3d instant :

The Charge d'Affaires of France, and the General in Chief
Vont Digeon, went off yesterday to the Escurial, to announce
to the King the resolution of his Majesty Charles X. to with-
dtaw his troops from the Peninsula, leaving only garrisons in
• Chills, Pampeluna, &c. The Charge d'Affaires is also to
tell his Majesty that the troops will in no way interfere with
matters beyond the circuit of the fortresses they occupy.
" Although this news is positive and authentic, and though
-the preparations have been already made for entirely evacuating
Spam at the end of the month, I can guarantee to you, that
when the Charge d'Affaires of France gave on the 20th ult. a
note to our Minister of Foreign Affairs, announcing the posi-
tive instructions he had received as to the avacuation of the In-
tel ior of Spain, our (the Spanish) Government was so fright-
ened, that it immediately commenced new negociationm. making
propoeitions which have been sent to Paris, and which, not-
withstanding the note transmitted to M. 'Lea, end the journey
of the General and Charge d'Affaires to the Escurial, will
probably neemien some modification in the first determination
of the Cabinet of the Tuileries.
" The negociation with the bankers of Paris for a loan is
altogether broken off because these houses would not tnke the
smallest part on their own ri'dr. It is affirmed, that instruc-
lama newly given to M. Burgos authorise him to make some
overtures to other houses on the admission of a certain quan-
tity of bonds of the first loans of the Cortes, which would he
reetived in payment of the loan proposed to be contracted ;
but this is a report which I repeat without guaranteeing it.
" It is stated as positive that M. de Talaru returns to Ma-
Ohrsea, OcT. 19.—1 t appears by letter,' from Constanti-
nople of the 12th, that on the 3d lug. the Greeks destroyed by
Ere-ships, three frigates and several brigs of the Ottoman fleet,
and that four days after this fleet lost at Mitvlene five frigates
or corvettes, and a great number of smaller vessels. There,
had been previous disastrous actions between Pattnos and
)Itiaria. The discouragement of the Torte; is extreme.
(From the Eloile doled Friday.)
t!o r Nov. A fter breakfast, which took place
at a quarter tti eleven, the King hunted in the forest.
The table d'hountur' both at dinner and at breakfast, was
act oat with nearly 30 covers. Besides the parties we men-
tioned yesterday, who had the honour to be admitted to it, we
ninet add the Duke d'Estissac, Field-Marshal, commanding
the Department of the Oise ; M. Blin de Bourbon, Prefect of
the Pas de Calais ; the Sub-Prefect of St. Quentin, and that of
&mils ; the Mayor of Beauvais, and the King's Procurateur
of that city.
His Majesty dined at half-pant six. During the dinner, the
hand of the National Guard executed, as yesterday, symphonies
and favourite airs. A great number of persons were permitted
to stand round the table in the banquet-hall.
tfeNeither on his route, nor during. his stay at Compiegne, has
the King received addresses. His Majesty thought it his duty to
relieve the Prefects and other functionaries from that formality;
but this evening, after dinner, his Majesty received a great
number of Mayors of the surrounding communes. The au-
dience occupied more than an hour. The King returned to
Paris at nine o'clock.

SURREY RESURR F.CTIONS.

Mu. EDITOIt—My attention has been lately
called to a very curious discussion, of which your
Paper has been made the vehicle. Some time
flare I read a Ballad in THE SUN, purporting to
he ancient, and only puhlished on account of
some alleged coincidence between certain circum-
stances narrated in it and others which had re-
cently taken place. • I must admit, Sir, that on
the first inspection of that my impression
was that it was a forgery. A correspondent of
yours, " DETVCTOtt," roundly asserted this ; but
he mixed up something about a Drama at the
Coburg TheatrP, which, I conf?fi, I thought had
little enough to do with the subject. I see that
JE,GIDIANUS has replied to this, and defends the
authenticity of his Ballad ; but the defence ob-
viously proves, that whatever may be his allusion,
the whole has been got up for some particular °e-
vasion, about which most of your correspondents
arti in the dark.
:My present business is whit your correspondent
tEntniAmus would lead US 10 Stipp°Sp
that resurrections have taken place in the parish
whenCe he takes his name. I.lw ELL is quite right
in denying this. But then, Sir, he would insi-
nuate that Stockwell or Camberwell may be the
place. This assertion is most. wanton. Stockwell,
where 1 live, is not a parish, but a hamlet be-
loo2ing to falmbetli ; and as to any resurrections
heaving taken place. by authority of •any kind, I.
cun distinctly say that nothing of the sort is true.,
I hope some zealous inhabitant of Camberwell
will not delay to confute, if he can, the uncalled
for insinuation of EWELL. In this case, it SeeMS,
troth lies in a well, and I trust some sagacious
cartespondent will draw her out.
Hoping you will insert this. ill justice to the
'inhabitants of is most respectable

I rtinnin, Sir,
Your very obedient fiervant,
NAUUTUS.

JOrtitNitYMEN IWittosit lY Etittfuttnott,=--On
Monday the greater part of the masons here 'struck work, in
consequence of the Master builders reducing their wages. It
is usual for the latter to make a certain reduction at this sea-
son, on account of the shortness of the day ; and yesterday
being. the commencement of the winter hours, the masters
simultaneously stated that they were resolved to give only
fifteen shillings per week. The operatives conceiving this
reduction out of proportion to the loss of time resulting from
winter hours, refused .to work at the wages offered. In the
course of the forenoon they held a meeting at the Weat-end
of Coat,'.crescent, where a small Committee was named, and
a wend meeting agreed to be held at the head of Blunts.
field Links. At three o'clock about COO appeared at the
'spot appointed—a sort of natural. amphitheatre, near Viewforth
Bettie. Here a set of Resolutions were proposed and agreed
--to.--alte substance of which was, that they (the journeymen)
'would not work for less wages than 17s. per week ; that they
considered the depriving them of the dinner hour in winter as a
great hardship; and, therefore, would not.work to any master
who should not allow the usual period of rest for dinner in winter
as well as In summer. A penny a Man was collected for the
purpose of oiofraying any incidental charges. From the sum
collected, it appeared that about PO were present. It was then
proposed and agreed to, that a Society should be formed, with a
view to give assistance to such of their brethren as might in
future have occasion to strike from a similar cause. Before
Air dispersed, it was intimated, as a general understanding,
;that in every case where masters cornidied with the proposed
fwagis and time, the journeymen should instantly recommence
their usual labours. We understand that many of the master
builders have-resolved to suspend their building operations for
.The present, In consequence of not being able to come to an ar-
Arangement with the operative masons.—(Edinbargh Observer.)
