Vowell, alias Hooker, of the City of Exeter, aria ee,_
fished in the 28th volume of the Arclkeologia,. 1. i , a
MS. in the possession of Sir Thomas Phtilipp, a_ rt.
After the account of-the engagement between the a.- kz..
lish and French fleet, he proceeds thus :
" Not long after, the seas being waxed calm, and• i ye
weather fair, the French galleys, having wino . ,d
weather at will, they would a!so needs range ate! e sr
the seas ; and finding them clear, and th, Eaglisi, ~ 1
to be laid up in harbour, they came along all the - . h
coast of England, even unto the Is'e of V. .t,
where some of them landed, and did much .1. ;
and some of them came unto the haven of P. a a- _
mouth and then rode up and down ; thera being r.. i a
ship at that instant in that react:ness, nor en: 4 1
wind to serve, if they had been in re sdinesseind I 0 ale. -.. is
Them. the King, who upon the news hereof was cc ; e to
Portesmouth, fretted, and his teeth stood on an edger ;be
the bravery of his enemies, to come so near his te. ee
and he not able to encounter with them ; when, •. a
immediately the beacons were set on fire throcek. it
the whole coast, and forthwith such was the resort c Ino
people as were sufficient to guard the laud Iron: ,:e
entering of the Frenchmen ; likewise command., A
were sent out for all the King's ships, and all other .: 'a
of war, which were at London and Queenber.- a it
elsewhere, that they should with all speed pea. le
make haste and come to Portesmouth ; which a 4•13
were accordingly performed. The Frenchmen
ceiving that they could, do no good by tarrying I • e,
departed again to the seas. The King, as soon as is.
whole fleet was come together, willcth them to s • a
things in order, and to go to the seas ; which t' -:
being done, and every ship cross-sailed, and every e
taiu knowing his charge, it was the King's pleast: a
appoint Sir George Carewe, to be Vice-Admiral of .t
journey ; and had appointed unto him a ship named o
Marye Rose, which was as fine a ship, as strong, at:
well appointed, as none better in the realm. As :
their departure the King dined aboard with the 1 1
Admiral Viscount Lisle, is his ship, named the G - . v
Henry, and was there served by the Lord Admiral; ' •
George Carewe, this gentleman, Peter Crewe, d
their uncle, Sir Gawen Carewe ; and wit h such or 3
only as were appointed to that voyage and service. . e
King, being at dinner, willed some one to go up to th o
and see whether he could sec anything at the seas. e
word:was no sooner spoken, but that Peter Carewe e 3
forward, and forthwith climbeth up to the top of a
ship, and there sitting, the King asked of him, e. t
news?—who told him that he had sight of thre e••
four ships, but, as he thought, they were merch e' .
but it was not long but he had ascryed a great nu:e • ..,
and then ho cried out to the Kiag that there was, a • a
thought, a fleet of men-of-war. The King, supra- I
them to be Frenchmen of war, as they were it' 4.
willed the board to be taken up, and every man to
his ship, as also a long-boat to come and carry ha u
land : and, first, he bath secret talks with the Lord A ,
rel, and then he bath the like with Sir G. Carewe, or t
his departure from him, took his chain from his nee!, a 2
peat Wistle of gold pendent to the same, and de- -,f
it about the neck of the said Sir George C-:- I,
giving him also therewith many good and condole
words. The King then took his boat and rows- s
the laud ; and every other captain went to his shit -
pointed unto him. Sir George Carewe being ent. I
into his ship, commanded every man to take his pie- 's
and the sails to be hoysted ; but the same war .1
sooner done, but that the Miry° Rose begae i-1
heel, that is, to lean on the one side. Sir Gaw - i
Carewe being then in his own ship, and seeing e- 1
same, called for the master of his ship, and told him th ~
of, and asked him what it meant ? who answered - t
if she did heel, she was like to be cast away. The,. c
said Sir Gawen, passing by the Marye Rose, ( t
out to Sir George Carewe, asking him how he
who answered, that be had as in of knaves, who •- i
could not rule. And it was not long after, but a ;
the said Marye Rose, thus heeling more and more, s s
drowned, with 700 nvm which were in her ; whereo! .. T
few escaped. It chanced unto this gentleman, at s
common proverb is, " the more cooks, the worst poi:. .'
He had in this ship 100 mariners, the worst of t.. a
being able to bee master in the best ship within the re., a
and they so malign d and disdained one the other, ' t
refusing to deethat which they should do, were care a ;
to do that they ought to do; and so contend; ••: a
envy, perished in forwardness. The King this rs• -
while stood on the land, and saw this tragedy, as Ot
the lady, the wife to Sir George Carewe, whs. • 1
that sight fell into.a &mooring. Tae King beiug a•-•
pressed with sorrow on every side; comforted her, ~ i
thanked Gad for the other, hoping that of a hard , -
ginning there would follow a better ending. And ;.
withstanding this loss the service appointed went 1 - •
' ward as soon as wind and weather would serve ; • I
the residue of the fleet, being about the number of i
sails, took the seas. The Frenchmen perceiving
same, like a sort of sheep running into the fold, •• T
shifted away, and got them into their harbours ; tl. -
ing it better to lie there in a safe skin than to erica' •
tur with them of whom they should little win.•'

WHI'I'TEN CARICITURES.

(From the Ch arivari.)

Dancing is not a taste ; it is never pursued for its
stlt-, but as a means, the end of which is love ant!
pleksures. Thus, waenever we see gentlemen in
autumn of life agitating their aged limbs to the sounc..
music, and wives or spinsters of doubtful charms juinir
the amorous cxerel.-.: of waltzes, gallopacks, cc::
dancis, we are convinced that they labour nude,'
soul-stirring influence of some passion, secret or (..vo,
When a pretty woman continues as fond of dancing
• marriage as before, we may conehle with her hus.bAnd.
Walking is not a taste, either. To old men it be,
a necessary exercise ; it is a pretext to lovers, a par,
the coxcomb, and to the idler a certain method et

ing time.
Good cheer is the amusement of the blasts;
the passion of blockheads come to maturity. It acts
stimulant to the wit of the first, while it throws the
still lower in the scale of brutality. The man of s
nitl never deszend to gluttony ; he is at the utir,
gourmand. The fool, to say the least, is a gourmand
never becomes an epicure.

Sporting may sometimes become the diversion of ti
torious persons, but is only a passion with men of unc
voted minds and low inelmations. The true thorough
sportsman is a species of brute who associates with b•
ill-treats his children, neglects his wife, arid shows re:7
Only to his dogs, beating them beyond measure. He
liar, a braggart, and an absolute nonentity in every quest.
not involving hounds, game, gnus, and horses.
Fishing, like every other passion, has icy devotees.
confessors, and its martyrs. Would you believe that o!
devotees the moat zealous is the fixed and motion!
angler, that species of human post, stuck in the Ea--;
slime, whose entire intellect is devoted to bafffing the
flee of a gudgeon or the intelligence of a carp ? Its :
fesiors are the confirmed anglers who, confined to tr.
arm chairs, and crippled with rheumatism, persist in
for gold fish in au enormous tub. fAs or the mart,
their name is legion ; they are the unhappy indivi,J,,
who, by a luckless slip, arc harried off to supper with
water nymphs, and those who arc macl-v to take a sonic:
into the middle of a canal by the tow-ropa of some bi-.'
add to these the victims of rheumatics, inflammation 0;

Riding is a fashionable amusement, and in good t

only on high days and holydays, and his horses are LI
you may either set him down for a milliner, a dane
tailor, or in one word, a snob of the first water.

Dressing is not merely a pleasure, but an °coupe.
with some, and an art with others. It is an occupa•
with men of 40 or more, who seek to make an impri-,
with pretty women of al who wish to preserve a it,
with those of 35 ambitious for another conquest; it
occupation with ugly or ill-made women of every agc
the studious man whose inclination keeps him aloof
society, but who is driven by circumstance to make his .
pearance in full dress, it is hard labour.
It is a science which the actor studies throughout
life ; an art which the woman of easy virtue has recet
from Heaven or Hell, for to her we must ever refer w
we wish to find taste, elegance, and fascination united.
The man who always appears dressed may he held a
more than third-rate genius ; he who knows not bow
dress when it becomes necessary has a mind of trifling
pacity.

gait women the toilet is an infallible index to tl
without grace, the
savage dresses badly ; the prude dre
the slattern dresses tawdrily and with
taste, and the virtuous bourgeoise dresses out of all c(
mon sense ; the coquette, the coquette only, posscsse•
the secrets of the art, knows how to choose and dispoe
the several colours which compose her costume, boy

of the earth for the tactics and the genius of dress, I
military art of love.
