BATTLE OF NAVARIN. General Oder issued by Vice Admiral Sir EDWARD tODRIRDtON, previously to the departure of the Allied qttadt , ms from Navoin, after the battle: " H. M.S. Asia, In the Port of Waver's, 24th 0ct.1127. ‘" Before the united Squadrons remove from the theatre on which They have pined so complete a victory, the Vice-Admiral, Com mander in-Chief, is desirou, of making lmen. to the wisesle of the Odkers, Same*, and Marines, employed in theta, the high sense *bee he has of their gallant and steady conduct on the 20th inst. He is persuaded that there is no instance of the Fleet of any pee, country sheeting more complete union of spirit and of action than l i was exhibited by the Squadrons of the three Allied Powers toge tber, in this bloody and destructive battle.. He attribetes to the knelt example set by his gallant colleagues,tha Rear-Adndrals,the able and cordial support which the ships of the several Squadrons pee to.esch other, during the heat and confuslost of the battle.— Such anion of spirit and of purpose—such coolness and bravely un der fire—and such comment preeisloo fa eke sic of their guns, ensured a victoty over the well prepared arrangement of greatly superior numbers: and the whole Turkish and Egyptian Flaw have paid the penakr of their treacherous breach of faith. The boasted Ibrahim Pache promised not to quit Navarin, or oppose the Allied Fleet, and basely broke his word. The Allied Cam. slanders promised to destroy the Turkish ea Egyptian Fleets. if a single gun were fired at either of their lags ; and, with the assistance of the brave men whom they bare had the satisfaction of cam. standing, they have performed their promise tease very letter. Out of a fleet composed all men-of.war,tiallet remain only oar frigate and *beep smelter vessels in a state ever to be again put to sea Such a victory cannot be ;mined writhing a -great sacrifice of life; sal the Commander-in-Chief has to deplore the lomat many of the bee and bravest men of whoa the Fleet contained.
