réf. 5427LETTER: Avebury Buckinghamshire 3 November 1835; PAMPHLET: London: Longman Rees Orme Brown Green & Longman Paternoster-row. 1835. Printed by Manning and Smithson Ivy Lane Paternoster Row. Full subtitle: 'With a comparative review of the systems proposed by H. Cranmer Phillipps R.N. and by Captain Levin Joergen Rohde of the Royal Danish Navy Knight of the Dannebrog &c. &c.' The letter was previously attached by four small pieces of red sealing wax on the verso of its blank second leaf to the title-page of the pamphlet. Letter and pamphlet are now detached with traces of wax adhering to both but not affecting the text of either. LETTER: 12mo one page. Good on aged paper. Addressed to Sir William Symonds 1782-1856 Surveyor of the Navy naval architect and rear admiral. He troubled Symonds the previous summer with 'a book upon naval signals'. 'The appearance of another work upon the same subject has induced me to write the accompanying little tract which perhaps you may find time to glance over. I am only anxious for a fair trial of my system.' PAMPHLET: octavo thirty pages. Several illustrations of flags. Disbound. Aged and creased. Cropped ownership inscription of 'W. Symonds R.N.' at head of title. The pamphlet performs 'the disagreeable and perhaps somewhat invidious task of pointing out the more prominent defects in Captain Rohdes' system' and contrasts it with 'his own plan' ending with four pages of 'NUMERAL SIGNALS. . The Numbers to be shewn over A WHEFT.' LETTER: [Avebury, B[uckinghamshire]?], 3 November 1835; PAMPHLET: London: Longman, Rees, Orme, Brown, Green & Longman, Paternost unknown

Wikipedia: "The Paris Commune was a radical socialist and revolutionary government that ruled Paris from 18 March to 28 May 1871. Following the defeat of Emperor Napoleon III in September 1870 the French Second Empire swiftly collapsed. In its stead rose a Third Republic at war with Prussia which laid siege to Paris for four months. A hotbed of working-class radicalism France's capital was primarily defended during this time by the often politicized and radical troops of the National Guard rather than regular Army troops. In February 1871 Adolphe Thiers the new chief executive of the French national government signed an armistice with Prussia that disarmed the Army but not the National Guard. Soldiers of the Commune's National Guard killed two French army generals and the Commune refused to accept the authority of the French government. The regular French Army suppressed the Commune during "La semaine sanglante" "The Bloody Week" beginning on 21 May 1871. Debates over the policies and outcome of the Commune had significant influence on the ideas of Karl Marx who described it as an example of the "dictatorship of the proletariat Swan Sonnenschein unknown
