His representa tions of the pr-ogress of the regular brigade, and cf the spirit with whirl: the iVlorsotes now take up their arms, are very flattering ; and I do not in the least doubt that the Gieeke will he able to recover all they have lost during the ensuing winter months. An arrival from Maina represents that p.rt of the Morea as being free of Turks, and the natives ye quietly gathering their produce. The Turks of Patras made a descent on Monday on Gasmuni, kut they entirely failed in ' their attempts at plunder, through the active resist ance of the population. The Tut kish force consisted. of 500 cavalry, who afterwards retited to Patras. " The Missolonghiots make a most gallant defence, and even act on the offensive. The besieging army must ere long quit the siege, on account of the rainy season, which is now commenced. A sqtradr. , n of Greeks are blockading the Gulf of Arta, and the lonian Government refuse clearances for Pteve,a. The Greek fleet, under Miaulis, passed live from Missolonghi, cowards the Levant, on Monday last, the sth instant They ate gone in warch of the Turks, who, it is now ascertained, have taken up their quarters in Port Boo dron, opposite the Isle of Rhodes. We hear nothing further respecting the Akxandrian fleet." EXTRACT OF A LETTER FR - ht THE HARBOUR OP ZANTE, DATED SEPT. 8, 1815. 14 I can only write to you a few lines horn the har bour, where 1 am confined in a most miserable cattle boat, the best conveyance front the Mo-ea to Zante.— The laws of quarantine are now exceedingly strict here, the plague being at Modon, Coron, and Navarino— one of the blessings brought to us by the Arabs.—h has not, however, penetrated among the Grteks ; on the contrary, Napoli, which is generally a very un healthy place in summer, has been this year quite healthy, although containing at present more than fifty thousand people. " Flout C!areatzA and Gastouni, where I shall go this night. I will write to you long details upon all the affairs of Greece. I intend also to proceed to Misso longhi, to examine closely the state of that place.— ahim Pacha, with 5,000 men, marched from Tripo: lizza to Navarino about 20 days ago, but finding the plague there, he came back. On his return, he was surrounded by the Greeks, now collecting again under Colocottoni. It is expected that he cannot open his way ui !tont great loss. He had left at Tripolizza 'neatly 3,000 men, one part of which was placed at a mull two hours from the town; these were attacked •luring the night, and all killed, except a few who were taken prisoners. Nearly (...),500, including many wounded and sick, are strictly closed in Tripolizza, and if Ibrahim cannot relieve them soon, they must surren !er for want of provisions. The Greeks are now in very goo,' spirits, and Colocotroi,i's army, when I crossed the Nlorea five days ago, was between 12,000 and 14000 strong, and was daily incteasing, by the Moreotes coming down from the mountains to join him.—Their affairs in all quarters have assumed a f vourable aspect.—The Greeks are more united than they have ever been, and this camp sign may be consi dered as approaching to a termination." JiImAICA. KINGSTON, SEPTRNI3ER 3. We are authorised to state, that instructions have bees received at the Custom-house of Kingston, from the Comm ssioners of Customs, London, directing their officers to refuse to clear out a vessel having coffee on board, unless all the certificates required by the Act of the British Parliament, 5 Geo. 11. cap. 24, sec. 3, are traduced; and to refuse to receive certificates which have undergone an alteration ; and to consider the ccffec shipped under such certificates as shipped with out a certificate, unless such alteration is noticed in the jurat.

Toe Loyal Briton (which an ived at Port Royal on Saturday), arrived at Turk's Island on the 18th instant, last from, Nassau, New Providence, with detachments of the 2d West India Regiment. The detachment for that island, under the command of Lieut. Redman, disembarked on the subsequent day, and relieved a party of the 91st Regiment, under the command of Lieutenant Lovett. It is melancholy to state, that the inhabitants of Turk's Island experien:ed, on the 27th of July, a hurricane, which lasted six or seven hours. During its continuance a great number of houses were blown down, and others sustained considerable damage —almost the whole of this year's salt was lost. All the vessels at anchor were destroyed. The American brig Eliza, from St. Thomas's, parted from her mooiings, and foundered at sea; her crew was fortunately saved. Another American vessel, supposed to be the Victory, Captain Llurns, from Philadelphia, laden with flour, capsized in the gale,and every person on board pe► ished. She made every effort that was possible to come to an chor during the storm, but without avail. Monday, a meeting took place at the Court House, Falmouth, pursuant to notice, to take into consideration the most efficient meat, of e-tablishing a fuiid for the erection of a Presbyterian Church, and for provid ng for its Minister. The Honourable James Stewart, Custos, in the Chair. The Custos op: ned the meeting with the following addiess:—.. Gentlemen—Soon alier my return to this pads!), to resume my old situation as your Cirstos, I was given to understand that it had been in contem plation of several of the most iespectable i:ihabitants, natives of Scotland, and others, who had been educ.ited . according to the principles and institutions of their own constitutional Church of Scot! Ind, to contribute to the raising a fund for the purpose of building a suitable place of worship in this town, and (or the suppuit of a Presbyterian Minister. Unfortunate;y, tl.is praiseivotchy disposition has not been cattle i into effect. Not, I believe, from want of tufliciint zeal to proms to the object, but the deplorable want of mean-, occasioned by the unprecedented adversity and distress of the times. Being so ciicumttanced, it is natural to resort to our niot:ier country f it its fotterng aid ; and I am per suaded that Government w ill graciously bestow such pecuniary assistance as will citable you to accomplish your p.ous undertaking. I h tee, therefore, convyned this meeting, in order to recommend that a special Committee may be app. inted from your body, to take. into consideration the means by which a Presbyterian Church may be established in this town, to be .n com munion with the Church of Scotland, and to be served by a regularly ordained Clergy man from that country; and that the Committee may proceed with some con fidence, in an application to the British Government for assistance, I beg leave to state for its information the following facts, namely 4, The British Government have uniformly counte nanced and supported Preshytetians and Members of the Church of Scotland, even in parts of the British empire where Episcopacy is the established religion. " That in the North of Ireland, the British Governmentgrants a considerable sum, annually, for the support of the Presbyterian Clergy. • " That in the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope, it supports a Presbyterian Establishment, consisting of twelve clergymen. " That in the Provinces of British America, where the Roman Catholic religion is established, it assigns salaries for the support of Presbyterian Ministers. " That in each of the Presidencies of British India, it supports a Clergyman of the Church of Scotland." On the motion of William Miller, Esq. It was resolved unanimously, that the measures now recoils.. mended be adopted; and the Chairman do forthwith appoint a committee to carry them into effect, and that a book be opened for subscriptions of voluntary donations, for the purpose intended. The following. Gentlemen were appointed . a Committee—Wig. Ham Miller, and Robert Scott, Esqrs. Dr. Thomas Willis, Dr. John Anderson, and Dr. Robert Neilson. A subscription nearly amounting to 1004. was im mediately made. Several individual sums were to a large amount, two in land for building it on,if approved, each amounting to 3001. 44 We ( West India Gazelle) should be sorry to thrrw anything like a damper on this laujable undertaking ; but we are apprehensive that the situation of the Kirk will give rise to as much discussiiin as the situation of the House of Congic,s in Amei ie....We have given some consideration to the subjt.et in a statistical point of iew, and conceive that 0:c el opoi ton of Presbyterians This day was published, in Bvo .
