TIFE in the COCKPIT 1 .
r . ,l, s „ie national work, under the
l A ". -i’f ie tfightwa'chy or Tales of the
‘'’ i.nsbeen just issued from the press.
** ‘'Captain’’ is the first tale it, the
1 ", nn .i from it we extrac t the following
of cockpit frolics. Morland, the he
d lis only joined, and, ot course, been

islV ‘ e before taking his place among his
rVioW 4 reefers ’ below.]
it was not till the sunset gon was fired,
t ensign wafted past the windows as it
, rented the staff, and the rattle of drums
de ®, resounded from the forecastle,
the party broke up; when the first-,
lieutenant sent for Mr. Peters, .he caterer
r.je starboard birth, and desired him to
° ( )t!r a hammock to be slung and intro
duce the youngster to the mess .
peters made his appearance in a some
, t t \ ire adbare blue coat, edged with a
riding that had ouce been white, but its
b e find now become variegated, from the
vice it had seen in the holds. He was
fellow, whose friends had no in
vest ; but, notwithstanding, he had a slight
potion* o: the 4 sal sapit omnia system
and heard, that when people in office
spoke f. reign,’ or in parables, ‘ Donez
tnoile sel, etje vouspasserailepoivre, was
almost reduced to a prove rb among them ;
yet still hoped promotion might come in
battle, though he had been thirteen years
a midshipman and had passed his qualify
ing examination for lieutenant more than
half that time.
t* jyjorl iDd followed this hero of the or
lop, and dread of the afterguard and miz
entopmen, to the dark but merry regions
of the cockpit.
“ As they descended from deck to deck,
he was no! less astonished at the immense
size of the ship, and the long tiers of can*,
non levelled along each side, than at the
multitude of sailors and marines scattered
among these tremendous batteries
“ On entering the cockpit, their ears
were assailed by the confusipn of noises ;
but descending from the day, they could see
bui little by the dull gleam of the sentinel’s
lamp.
44 before they reached the door of the
mess place, Peters tumbled over a trunk,
which had evidently been placed in his
way for the purpose, as a loud laugh ac
companied his fall. He swore at conside
rable length at certain personages with short
and long names, s*>rre of whom, though
decked with honourable Mtles in the Court
Calendar, received appellations of the most
quesdonahle purport; as he vowed venge
ance on the clews of their hammocks, if
not up by seven bells in the morning.
44 This was succeeded by another laugh,
and 4 Bravo, Peter!’ (f. r they sent the s
to prison) accompanied bv a hat thrown
with malice prepense , which struck him on
the head, as he opened the birth door
over which he presided.
44 Two lights burned dimly in the heated
atmosphete of a close cabin, showing as
motley a scene as could well be imagined
iu so small a space
44 At the sides of the cabin were dirks
and swords ; on the handles of which hung
a few stray cocked hats. The open buf
fets, filled with glasses and broken crocke
ry faced the door the caterer’s seat being
in the centre; over which suspended the
rules of the mess. Quad and Quammino,
two black servants, occupied a narow
pace next the ship’s side, called the wing,
the secret lodgings of disheiouts and dirty
table cloths,where the rustling of the waves
against the ship s side could he distinctly
heard, indicating the head to be on a level
with the surface of he sea
44 The company assembled in this sub
marine abode consisted of twelve 4 young
gentlemen,* as they are denominated, tho
more than one approached the age of thir
ty. They all ranked in the class of petty
officers, and the assistant surgeon among
the rest.
14 One midshipman was playing the vio
lin, or the 4 violent, as his messmates call
ed it; another the flute ; two were occupi
ed at the chess-board ; one working a tide
outof ’ohn Hamilton Moore; and another
drawing a pipe and glass of grog in the
hands of a rudely engraved personage, who
is found on the frontispiece of that old na
vigation book. Three youngsters, weary
with their watch, were endeavouring to
sleep with then head on the table ; w hile
a fourth tickled their ears with a quill, or
burnt them with lighted paper ; and the
twelfth was a midshipman of the watch,
with his hat on, and a cup in Ins hand, ask
mg Quad for wine; but he departed on
the appearance of Peters, who cursed him
f° r a young skulker, and bid him 4 scud on
deck ’
“ ‘Saunders, said Peters as he address

44 4 I am not a Scotchman,’ said Morland.
44 No one, however, paid the least atten
tion to him; and Saunders struck up, in a
broad accent, accompanied by his screech
ing instrument—

And boast of their courage to roast beef they owe;

while both the disconsolate players insist

44 * The tablecloth was quickly throwi
over, and an immediate drumming com
menced on the plates, which put Quammi
no in bodily fear, till he produced the beef
44 Little notice was taken of Moi ianci,
save that lie was informed he was a yount
bear, that all his sorrows were to come ;
and he was helped first, for the first and
last time.
44 The evening passed away amidst noise
and jokes; and aftei supper, when the par
tyjwere tired of singing, 4 Here s a health

pi ovisatories added, choruses, they had re
course to the game of able Whackets.
4 Jt is commenced by playing cards,
which cards are uamed the good books; —
the table, the board of green cloth ; the
hand, the fl.pper ; the light, the glim, &-C.
and 1 whoever misnames any of these is de
tected by the word 4 watch.* The delin
quent’s flipper is then demanded ; his crime
is repealed by each person, who strikes bin)
a tevere blow, with a twisted and knotted
handkerchief, or the hand ; swearing is al
so watched ; and as these blows, are not ea
sily borne without irritation, the good
books are scarcely required more than to
commence the game.
44 When Morland retired to his hammock
he found his sheets reefed, i. e. made up in
a round, and to him inexplicable, ball. In
the middle of the night, however, when
sleep had reconciled him to his blankets and
the strangeness of his hammock, he came
suddenly to the deck, bed and bedding ;
and awakened by the clatter of shot aboui
him, on examination found two twenty
foui pounders in Ids bed, the foot of which
was on the deck, and the clothes scattered
about the cockpit. The sentinel assisted
to hang up his hammock, instructed him to
let the reef out of his sheets, and promising
to protect him from further molestation dur
ing the watch, be slept soundly till the
morning, when Peters was loud in his calls
to"the lady mids 4 to rouse outand the do
zy muzzy, who had the middle watch, ant’
was the perpetrator of tlte nocturnal mis
chief on Morland’s hammock, was actually
cut down in a similar manner by Peters
justified by virtue of his office.
[From the Chibs of London .]
Dundas end the Barber. —Before Ilenrv
Du ml as, afterwards Lord Melville, had ob
tained tiie patronage of Scotland, he
not very popular with the natives of that
country ; indeed the inhabitants of the
good town of Edinboro, at onetime sought
his life, and would have sacrificed him to
their fury, for having boen concerned in
certain measures to which the geueral opi
nion was opposed.
In this state of the public mind, he made
a visit to the Scottish capital, and being oue
day recognized walking on the north bridge
or mound, lie was surrounded by an im
mense mob, who hustled him in a very rude
manner, and made prepartions to throw
hi n over the parapet. Luckily, he hap
pened to have a considerable quantity of
money in his pocket, in the shape of notes
and silver, which he had the presence of
mind tn throw, alternately , among thorn, so
as to divert their attention, whilst he uue’e
all possible way for the mansion of the Lord
Provost ; where, after great difficulty, and
having disposed of his last shilling, he ar
rived and found refuge and protection.
The mob increased, however, and sur
rounded the Chief Magistrates’s house ery
ing vehemently, 44 Put out Dundas! put
out Dundas l * and behaved otherwise in
a very riotous manner. At length the pro
vost, fearing they would proceed to extre
mities, came out and addressed them on
the duties of hospitality, and on the ancient
and uniform character of the Scots for the
exercise of that virtue; and concluded hy
saying, ihalhe 44 himself would prefer fill
ing a victim to their fury rather than eject
any person who had sought the asylum of
his roof.* This was an appeal which no
Scotchman could withstand more particu
larly as it came from a man whose amieuity
of character and mild ciispositi n had ren
dered him generally beloved. Having given
the Provost three cheers, they quietly dis
persed to their houses.
Whilst he remained in Edinbuigh on this
occasion, Mr, Dundas took care not ti
show himself again in the streets, but soon
took his departure for London.
Soon afterwards being obliged to revisii
his native country, and knowing the storm
had blown over, he met with a very odd
adventure, but one which terrified bin
equally, if not more so, than that on tin
North Bridge. Ii seems that he had recent
ly been accessary to some obnoxious mea
sure ; not, however, of such general im
portance as the former ops : it was such a?
to keep alive the public feeling, though
not sufficient to blow it into actual flame.
In this state of things he arrived at an ho
tel in Edinbuigh,and next morning sent for
a barber to shave him.
The Tensor, who happened to be a wag,
on entering the room, saluted Mr Dundas
and welcomed him to Edinburgh, Then
having decorated him with an apron, he
began to lather his face ; during which ope
ration, he cast upon him sundry scowling
and penetrating glances, the meaning of
which the stranger could not comprehend.
At length flourishing his razor, he said in a
sharp and stern voice—
*4 We are much obliged to you, Mr
Dundas, for the port you lately took in
London.*’
| 14 What ! * replied the Secretary, 44 you
are a politician I find ? I sent for a bar
ber.”
44 Oh yes,’* returned the night of the
pewter basin, 44 I’ll shave you directly, ’
which he did, until one half of the beard
was cleanly mowed: when coming to his
throat, he drew the back of the razor across
it, saying, 44 take that ye traitor !”—and off
he ran, down stairs, into the street.
V\ hethei Mr, Dundas had previously felt
any uneasiness at the barber’s manner, we
know not; but the latter expression—the
action being so well suited to the word, in
duced him instantly to apply the apron to
ns throat, and to make a loud guggling
noise, which being heard by some ot the
>eople of the bouso, they immediately ran
> his assistance. They soon discovored,
jy the pantomimic gestures of Mr. Dundas
what had occurred, and it w T as not long be
fore the room vvas full of members ot the :
Facuity, of all degrees ; apothecaries, sur- j
_!eons, and physicians! It was a consider
able time before the patient could be pre
vailed on to remove the apron and expose
his throat ; but at length, when he diJ so, 1
with much caution—it was found to be in a
perfectly whole stale i there not being even
a scar vizible !
Though Mr. Dundas had much reason to
be delighted at having escaped nnhurt v he
was a little mortified at the laugh which
this adventure occasioned ; and his chagrin
was greatly increased when he. found he
had to pay for the attendance of the medi
cal gentlemen; which having done, and
having shaved the other side of his face
himself for he would trust uo more barbers,
he decamped from Edinburgh, and did not
return for many years.
Dreadful Explosion in a Coal Mine. —
On the 27th March, says a tetter from
Liege, at 7 o’clock in the evening an ex
l plosion threw down a whole gallery iu a
coal mine, at *eraing (Belgium) Seventy
[ one miners were at work, thirty-nine of
| them were killed, eight others suffocated,
| and twenty-four escaped, being in a part of
| tho mine to which the explosion did not
I extend. The explosion was heard half a
league from Seraing, and the flame from
(he mine rose through the air-shaft eight
or ten feet. The suffocated people were
found much swollen, but their bodies wre
entire. Notwithstanding the violence the
injury dope to the mine is not so great as
was apprehended. Th,e air-shaft is injured
towards the bottom, and the lower ladders
are in a bad state. The iron carts ustd
for transporting the coals from the distant
parts ot the mine have been flattened and
bent iu all m inner of shapes. Two horses
, were, killed, and so swollen that their coi
ns were burst. The cause of the cxjdo
-ion is not known.

, AN UNCOMMON PARTNER AT CARDS.
In our regiment, whilst in the East Indies, were
i several wild young fellows, none more so than I ;
and as our life there, was very monotonous, the
, officers betook themselves to gaming. One day
after dinner, cards were brought, and several of
us entered with such energy into the fascinating
game, that every thing else was in a manner ne
glected. At length we changed it, and betook
ourselves in couples to separate games. I and en •
; sign A , as gay and rakish a rascal as ever
turned out from England, that we might pursue
our game uninterruptedly, ordered the servant to
carry out into a, kind of a summer house, a de
canter or two of wine, and the cards ; and thither
we. soon followed. We played with intense ea
gerness for several hours, till it grew so dark that
we could hardly see what was before us. I hail
been the gainer all the evening. 4 Come, A
said I, addressing my companion, 4 I’m sure it is
high time we should quit the cards and return for
we’ve a good deal of regimental business to do to
night.’ 4 Stay, and finish the game, you
will not move an inch till then,’ ‘ I tell you A
* , I must and will be gone ; why should we
thus make toil of pleasure, and besides gain anoth
er rebuke from the Colonel ? 11l aw’ay.’ 4 Stay
an/t try emo muro gn-mo,’ A , ---£
hand on my arm, and 1 11 win back what I’ve lost !’
I may perhaps to-morrow, but now, go I will.’—
‘ Then replied my companion, 4 if you do go, I’ll
stop and finish the game, if I have the devil for
my partner!’ ‘A merry game, and a pleasant
companion to you ; farewell!’ said I, and left the
room. I hastened to my own apartment, whore I
had a good deal of regimental business to trans
act. I had not been so engaged long, when the
door was flung hastily open, and in rushed ensign
A , and his eyes staring with horror, and
his cheek as pale as marble, lie sat down on a
chair, looked fixedly on me, but without speaking
a word. I called for wine, and got him to swal
low a little. The oold perspiration burst from his
forehead, and his eyes glared into every corner of
the room, as. though apprehensive thtft some wild
beast was ready to spring upon him. “Why, A
said 1, shaking turn, 4 what is the matter
with you ? Are you mad ?’ He made no answer,
except by a faint murmuring kind of indistinct
whisper. Are 4 you frightened—or—or what ?*
continued I, motioning to the servant to leave the
ro\m. By degrees my companion became com
posed. 4 Oh, T ,’ said he faintly and slow
ly— ‘ lam a lost man—a dead man !’ pshaw, my
good fellow, what is the matter with you ? You’ve
been too free with the wine ; and that, added to
your heated spirits, has nearly overturned your
brain.’ 4 No, T f he replied, lam sober
now, if I never was so before in my life. But my
days on earth are numbered ! —Next Tuesday 1
shall be no longer an inhabitant of this world !’—
There was something so indescribably affecting, 1
iiiay say shocking in the deep deliberate tone of
voice with which he uttered this, as well as the
steady ashy hue of his countenance, that I sat
down by his side without speaking.
At length taking his hand in mine, Tasked him,
in as soothing a manner as I was able, what had
caused his terror. “Do you remember what 1 said',
T ,on your leaving me to-night ?— 44 Faith,
yes ; was it not that you would play if you had
the devii for a partner ?” 44 Yes.” replied A ,
with a sickening sinile—“ I did so—and he took
me at my word r he continued, gasping, ss if for
breath. “ Why ; why” stammered I partaking o*
his fright— 44 Why, A , you dont mean to say
that ” 44 1 mean to say simply this,” replied
my companion, with a dreadful calmness, “that Sa
tan has taken me at ‘my word. A few moments
after you had left me, 1 leaned my head on my
hands, and shut my eyes. Immediately J *rard a
rustling among the cards on the table bo fore me.
I started, and—” a convulsive shuddering shook
his frame, 44 there sat opposite to me, in the chair
which you had just left vacant, a tall, pale man,
dressed in black. Why, how in the s name
did you come here ?” saidl, in amazement. 44 T0
finish the game with you, as you wished,” said
the stranger, deliberately, at the same time ar
ranging the cards. I saw his hands were as white
as alabastar, and he put the cards in order with
amazing care and skill. He offered me a pack.—
4 W hy, why, who are you, and whence did you
come ?” stammered I, at the same time that my
eyes seemed dancing in my head, and my knees
smote together with agitation. 44 1 am come to
finish the game with you, at yoUr ow n request,”
said the stranger, precisely in the same tone and
manner as before. I would have answered, but
my tongue clave to the roof of my mouth. 44 Why
do you not take the cards ?” said the stranger in a
hollow tone— 44 Will you finish the game accord
ing to your promise ?” “No!” I contrived to (
stammer out. His eyes glared on me, as though ;
his head was filled with vivid fire. He rose, and J
bending his fiendish face close to mine, thunder- i
ed in my ear, 4 This night week, then, thou shalt
finish it in hell 1” My eyes closed unconsciously,
as though they would never open again ; when I
looked up however, none but myself was in the
room, and as fast as my trembling limbs would car
ry me, have I come hither. Oh, T————, I am
a dead man !I am doomed !”—Such w r as the fear
ful narrative of ensign A———, W e got him to j
bed. A delirium seized him, the brain ftVCI fol
lowed, and that night week he died. *
Prom the Philadelphia Chronicle.
Our New York brethren have often
boasted of the rapidity with which then
city is overtaking the great commercial
towns of England. It must, be confessed,
that, in some respects their pretensions art
well founded. The Morning Courier, ot
yesterday, relates an incident which might
well be thought to have been transferied
from a London paper. A young woman,
itt male attire, was taken from the Bowery
Theatre, on Sasmday evening by Hays,
the police officer. When brought before
the magistrates, she gave the following ac
count of herself:—
Her father is a boat maker in some
part of Canada ; she was seduced from
her parents by a young man, who subse
quently abandoned her. She was then
reduced to the necessity of resorting to the
means which wretched, unfortunate females
employ for procuring subsistence. Be
coming, in a short time clisgusied with the
life she was obliged to lead, and in order
to avoid the snares of the wicked, she re
solved upon assuming nude attire, in which
she was of opinion she would procure better
wages than as a female servant. It was
about twelve months ago she assumed the
breeche, since which time she has filled
the several situations of horse jockey,waiter
and travelling gentleman, adopting each
profession, when circumstances rendered it
adviseable. The equestrian is her favorite
•node of travelling, and at present she is
possessed of a first rate roadster. She
lamented exceedingly, her being obliged to
resume the petticoats and to leave off her
masculine exercises, which she greatly
: preferred to those of the softer sex
Two Negatives make a Positive. —Mr.
Pitt was remarkable lor giving his opinions
with great positiveness; at a Cabinet din
ner, be was once expatiating on the beauty
of the Latin language ; and as an argument
in favour of the superiority which he af
firmed it had over the English he said,
that two negatives made a tiling more posi
tive, than one affirmative possibly could do.
“Ah! then,* said Lord Thurlow, “ your
father and mother must have been two we
gativesL to have made such a positive fellow
as you are n
The Olive Tree. There are on the
southern borders f the Crimea, two varie
ues of the olive tree, which have become
indigenous there. The one is pyramidical,
and its fruit is perfectly oval; the branch
es of the other are pendant, and its fruit
is large, heart-shaped and abundant. These
valuable trees have resisted the injuries of
centuries, and of successive nations of bar
barians. In 1812, an imperial garden was
formed at Nikita, (Russia,) into which the
cultivation of thost useful trees was intro
duced by means of cuttings or slips which
no extremity of cold has hitherto effected,
although some olive trees brought from
France, perished in the same garden ip
the winter of 1825-6.
Mr. Curran, cross examining a horse
jockey’s servant, asked his master’s age.
1 I never put my hand in his mouth to try,’
answered the witness. The laugh was
against the counsel, until he retorted,
did perfectly right friend, for your master
is said to be a great bite *

THE LAY OF POOR LOUISE.
Ah, poor Louise ! The live-long day
She roams from cot to castle gray ;
And still her voice and viol say,
Ah maids, beware the woodland way,
Think on Louise.
Ah, poor Louise ! The sun was high,
It smirched her cheek, it dimm’d her eye,
The woodland walk was cool and nigh,
Where birds with chiming streamlets vie,
To cheer Louise.
Ah, poor Louise ! The savage bear
Made iie’r that lovely grove his lair ;
The wolves molest not paths so fair—
But better far had such been there
For poor Louise.
Ah, poor Louise ! In woody wold
She rnet a huntsman fair and bold,
His baldrick was of silk and gold,
And many a witching tale he told
To poor Louise.
Ah, poor Louise ! small cause to pine
Hadst thou for treasures of the mine ;
For peace of mind that gift divine,
And spotless innocence, were thine,
Ah poor Louise 1
Ah poor Louise ! Thy treasure’s rest *
| I know force or theft
Or part by violence, or part by gift j
But misery is all that’s left
To poor Louise!
Let poor Louise some succour have !
She will not long your bounty crave,
Or tire the gay with warning stave—
For heaven nas grace, and earth a grave
For poor Louise.
