A TAR'S \EXAMINATION.

a Comment vous appellez us ?" inquired the French
officer, addressing a thorough 0 • .r of the Smollett school ;
" Comment vous appellez-vous !" A.x the marine there,"
replied the veteran :"I no parley e nd, but the Jollies
all speak Dutch." " Non, non, mon i," returned the
Frenchman—" Ino mean ctusch—l no m. de eentree_
your appellez Sacra ! Comment vous n a mez-vous ?"
Nummy woo ! who the —do you call nu , v woo ?"
exclaimed the seaman angrily, and taking a severe rn with
his quid—" I wants no purser's ammunition consams to
pass master. My name's Zachariah Winchbolt." Jacka—
Jack-Quoi ?" inquired the officer—Mon Dieu ! le (liable
catch your nom Jacka-Quoi ! Dites done !" " Jacky
Quaw ? you be d—d," replied the old tar. " I wish my
ould mother could hear you call me so, and me to be named
arter a commander-in-chief at Jerusalem. Jacky Quaw in-
deed ! d—n my eyes but she'd quaw you, old chap—my
name's Zachariah. " Zhack-a-rire—c'est bon," said the
Frenchman, laughing heartily, in which he was joined by his
attendants—" Votre nom me fait rire en verite. Zhackarire—
e'est drole ! mais de oder nom, mon ami ?" " The other
name, mountseer ?" reiterated the tar, " why it's Winch-
bolt at your sarvice." "Eh bien, mon ami," returned the
Frenchman, " Vinachebout." Then addressing his secre-
tary or clerk—" Depechez vous—mettez—mettez—Zhac-
karma Vinachebout." Then turning to the seaman, he
continued—" Quel est le lieu de votre naissance ?" " I'm
blessed if this arnt a cut above my edication," exclaimed
Winchbolt. " I say, Jem, can't you unlay the strands of
it for me, and twist up again into twice laid ?" " Why, in
the regard o' the matter o' that," replied the man addressed
(an old boatswain's mate), " it's a long while since I lamed
the languages, but howsomever, I'll try my hand at it—
Quoi vous havey beswoin mountseer ?" "Le lieu de sa
naissance," answered the Frenchman. "He wants the 100
of your nazeoux Zacb," said the boatswain's mate, " which,
as he seems to be logging down your marks and fashion
pieces, I takes him to mean the length o' your nose."—

We are positively assured that several changes are
designed in the alterations made by the late First Lor of the
Admiralty, and that a Special Board of distinguished Naval
Officers ha actually been appointed, under whose considera-
tion several new, as well as a revision of some old, regulations
will be brought forward forthwith.—Naval and Military Gaz.
FARNHAM Hors.—The hops, says a contempo-
rary, are quite beautiful, and visitors from all quarters have
flocked into this town to see them. The larger growers will
not finish picking for more than a week to come. Much
of the ground will average nearly a ton to an acre, and those
s!sf the best quality.
At the village of Penn, Bucks are two fir-trees,
which are said to be the loftiest in the kingdom ; they may be
seen from St. Paul's, London, and from several places at a
still greater distance ; the village stands on a highly com-
manding eminence. It is stated, in Prior's Life of Burke,
that the cannonading of Valenciennes, in 1793, was distinctly
heard by the inhabitants of Penn and its vicinity. —Bucks Paper.

THE SUN IS NOW THE LARGEST DAILY
PAPER IN LONDON.

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 16, 1134.

We have received by express from Paris the whole
of the Papers dated Sunday. The following impor-
tant communication is from the Temps:—
" A courier arrived in Paris to-day ( Saturday) at two
o'clock, bringing accounts from Madrid of the Bth inst. dated
the evening of that day. It is affirmed they bring intelligence
on that day (Bth), that M. Martinez de la Rosa sent in his re-
signation, and that his example was followed by all the other
Ministers with the exception of M. de Toreno, to whom the
charge of forming the new Ministry is entrusted. It is added
that the latter, without having yet designated any one, had ex-
pressed an intention of applying to men who are more de-
cidedly in favour of movement than were his late colleagues.
This account agrees, in fact, with the opinion of several diplo-
matists, who think that the Spanish Government cannot act
otherwise, if it wish not to expose itself again to defeat. M.
de Toreno had, however, already seen that the feeling of the
Chamber of Procuradores was adverse to the Ministry whom
he directed, and he had gone so far as to declare that he no
longer hoped to bring about the adoption of his financial plan,
unless one of the foremost of its opponents in the Chamber of
Procuradores were called to the Cabinet, a mode by which it
seemed to him alone possible to conciliate the Chamber."
We can only speak from conjecture of the truth of
this intelligence, which if correct, is no more than
might naturally be expected, but, judging from what
we know of the Madrid Cabinet, we are not disposed
to -credit it. The truth is, that the Spanish Ministry
have suffered too much from the operation of power
to be indifferent to its possession, even were the emolu-
ments of place as a grain of dust in the balance. Men
who have been exiled for the liberality of their princi-
ples, and who, on being restored to their country and
the countenance of their sovereign, have not been the
most tenacious of them, can hardly be supposed per-
sons likely to quit office, because those with whom
they had to transact business were more mindful of

their former professions, than suited their present pur-
poses. M. M. DE LA ROSA may have changed the
opinions which he once professed to entertain respect-

• •
• • -not to be sup-
posed that a man capable of so doing, would resign a
seat in the Cabinet, because all were not as great
political weathercocks as he has set them the example
of being. But this is mere conjecture, and until we
have received direct intelligence from Madrid, we can
only speak of it as within the regions of possibility.
Still the Madrid cabinet is anything but popular in
Spain. The noisy patriots of 1812 cut a sorry figure
in issuing proclamations for restraining blind pedlars
from crying out ballads, copies of speeches, and other
fabrications of news, in the streets—a practice com-
mon in London before the press had arrived at
maturity, and was conducted with the expedition,
which distinguishes it at present. DE LA ROSA com-
plains that these public nuisances stir up 'the minds.of
the populace, filling them with false alarms, and sow-
ing the seeds of sedition, revolt, and rebellion ; but
this is manifestly an exaggeration. Besides, a country
in which the cries of a blind newsman are capable of
effecting a revolution, must be indeed ill governed.
Such proclamations are in themselves worse than the
evils they profess to correct ; for the public must know
that the " tyrant plea, necessity," whica forms an
excuse for gagging a blind beggar, may as effectually
be cited to justify the suspension of their most valuable
political rights and privileges. Besides, at present, in
Spain every person is in favour of a charter, the more
so in all probability, because they know not exactly
what it means, and are only impressed with an idea
that it is some barrier beyond which even kings must
not pass, and which is fully enjoyed by the people of
this country : consequently the conduct of the Cabinet
with respect to the bill of rights, has called forth the

most unequivocal marks of public displeasure. This
being the case, the Ministry cannot remain long in
office unless they change their conduct, and adopt
their former principles. The debt, too, has alienated

them 1- nu cof public

'ranee

and England, so that the tenure by which they retain
place, if existing, cannot be rendered much more in-

secure and precarious.

Neither these journals, nor private letters which we
have received from Brussels and Bayonne, furnish any
authenticated account of the war in the Spanish pro-
vinces. All is rumour, and that, as usual, trumpets
the success of RODIL and the QUEEN'S cause. What-
ever be the difficulties which the Ministry may have
to contend with, we cannot hold them guiltless in thus
permitting the continuation of this disgraceful, demo-
ralizing, and unnatural exhibition. Unless the army
under RoDIL be reinforced, the war may continue for
months to come in the same desultory, inconclusive
state,—alike injurious to the morals and the national
character of the Spanish people.
There is no domestic intelligence of any importance
in the Paris papers. With respect to the progress
which the Bill of Rights is making in the Spanish
Chambers, we learn that the third article has been
adopted after a long debate and division, in which
the Ministry were again left in a minority, which de-
feat occasioned the resignation reported in the extract
from the Temps.

We have received advices from the East of the 30th
of July, which state that the Viceroy of EGYPT had
suspended the manufactures of cotton twist and cali-
coes, and that the whole of the operatives so em-
ployed were to be drafted into the army. Our in-

formant adds, that this act of the Government had
greatly increased the value of British cotton goods in
Aleppo, and would create a very considerable demand
for English twist and cotton manufactures.

The Edinburgh Chronicle of Saturday says, " at a
' meeting of the Trades on Thursday night last, it was
resolved to meet Earl GREY at Newington, on his
progress to St. Andrew's-square on Monday. The
Trades are determined to join heartily in welcoming
the illustrious individual, who has done so much for
' the cause of the people at large." Who, after a deci-
sion like this—not come to in a hurry, but after much
careful consideration—not emanating from the opera-
tives of a provincial town, but from the metropolis of
Scotland—will venture to assert that Earl GREY'S Ad-
ministration has ever been unpopular, even among
the working classes ? Yet such was the cry some
time since. We were assured by the Scottish Radicals
that he had forfeited their confidence ; for that he was
at heart no better than a Tory, fighting under a Whig
flag. How gradually and completely has all this
" clishmaclaver" been refuted ! That a small, noisy,
segment of the Scotch Radical party may have per-
suaded themselves that Earl GREY was unworthy of
their confidence we can easily imagine ; but the more
respectable and enlightened, who, we are now willing
to believe, form the majority of the working classes,
have always looked up to him and his Government
with sentiments of fitting respect and confidence.
From the moment when they first passed the border,
down to that when they reached Dalkeith, the progress
of Lords BROUGHAM and GREY has been one continued
triumph. The CHANCELLOR has been welcomed in
the north, with only less enthusiasm than the ex-
Premier in the south, of Scotland. The Liberals have
received them with open arms. The Radicals have
not been a whit behind hand in their display of grate-
ful feeling. In fact, the only party that has stood
aloof has been the high Tory faction ; and this
may be pardoned, if it sulk a little. One does
not expect the conquered to show any very vehe-
ment exultation in the presence of its conquerors.
Still we can see no reason why the Tories should be
so crest-fallen—so wholly given up to despondency, as
now appears to be the case with them in Scotland.
Surely the faction does not sorrow as " one without
hope !" hilts cup overflow with bitterness, one small drop
of sweet lies snug at the bottom. It may be unpopular
in Scotland, but it is in high repute at Oxford.
Hisses and laughter and shouts of execration may dog
its every step in Edinburgh ; but " harp, sackbut,
psaltery, dulcimer, and cymbal" will welcome its ar-
rival on the banks of the Isis. Let the Tories then
be content with the applause of the " big wigs" of
Oxford, and not sulk like so many lubberly school-
boys in corners, because Edinburgh does not know
how to appreciate them. It is a vulgar, unpolished
spot, wholly incapable of such a flight of admiration.
Lord BROUGHAM, when hissed at Oxford, did not
sulk as the Scotch Tories are now doing, through the
entire length and breadth of that exceedingly tasteless
country. No, he consoled himself with the reflection,
that though one city might eschew his pretensions,
three kingdoms were in his favour. Let the Tories
ten exhibit the same Christian resignation, for they
too have something of the same solace. If three
kingdoms are against them, one city at least--and
what a city !—thinks that they are miracles of mora
worth and political sagacity I

We are sorry to observe that the !contests between
the moqtPr-builders and their workmen who are, or
have been members of trades' unions, are still go-
ing on with increased asperity. No good, but on
the contrary a great deal of individual loss and
family buffering, will come of these disputes, in
every other respect injurious to individuals and
disgraceful to the country. During the continu-
ance of the feud between the master and jour-
neymen tailors, we took every opportunity of im-
pressing on all parties the necessity of yielding some-
thing, and of forgetting any trifling causes of irritation

that might arise on the part of either party. We can
only repeat the same wholesome counsel. We call
upon the master builders, in the spirit of charity
and conciliation, to receive back their workmen,
without uselessly irritating them by insisting upon the
signature of any documents whatsoever, and we
entreat the workmen as they value the comfort of their
families, and the preservation of the public peace, to
return forthwith to their employment. Let there be a
general amnesty—a full pardon and forgetfulness of
all bygone wrong, by whomsoever inflicted. The
trades unionists were not entirely to blame for what
has taken place. Besides, they were the dupes of idle
,knaves, who thought talking much easier work than
the following of any legitimate employment, and who
were only intent on living on the fruits of others'indus-
try. But this humbug has been fully exposed.
We believe the workmen are in general well disposed,
and we trust that their masters will not seek a triumph
over them, which would at some time or other operate
to their own disadvantage.

If. you are absurd enough to quarrel or get into an
argument with any person, let it never be upon politics or re-
ligion.—Book of 'Aphorisms.
