Sta—His Majesty's ships Cambrian, Serirmapatam, Rose, Medina, and Garnet, are in port. The Cambrian arrived two days ago from the Archipelago, and Napoli di Romania, and has destroyed about twenty boats and small vessels, suspected of piracy, on her last cruise. The Seringapatarn is just returned after giving convoy, cleariof the Arches, to the vessels which sailed on the 10th. His Majesty's ship Brisk gave convoy to the Dardanelles to the Helen and Diadem for Constanti nople. The Volusia, from Glasgow, was plundered on the Sti instant, between Serpho and Sephante, by a large pirate boat, manned with about thirty armed Greeks, of fully forty•five packages of manufaCtures, part of the crew's clothes and all their money. 'CI . Oak) M'Dougal was' slightly stabbed, frequently snuck, and severely threatened, for not giving up at once some gold he bad in his pocketi.

SIR-Truly sensible that, for the protection of Bri tish commerce in these parts, some more effectual mea sures than any hitherto adopted should be taken against the crying evil of Greek piracies, and the goods plun dered being openly brought here for sale, to which you were pleased to call our attention in your circular let ter dated a tew days back, we have given the subject that deep consideration which it merits, but we have hitherto been deterred from addressing you in reply, by the difficulty of suggesting any feasible plans for defeating this nefarious traffic. The additional recent cases of the brigs Helen and Diadem, froth London, and the Volusia from Glasgow, being all of them plundered of goods to a very large amount, which in all probabi lity will come here for sale, again rouse our attention, however much we may be at a loss to point out either remedy or redress. We assume, in the first place, as a notorious fact, that a great part of the goods plundered from British vessels by G:eek pirates in the Archipe lago have been imported here as an extensive and ready market, that they regularly pass at the Turkish custom-house on payment of the usual duties, and that' most of them are sold at such low prices as to flew they could not have been honestly acquired by the ap parent owners. We have; consequently, in addition to the pain,of seeing goods stolen front British vessels, to bine with the farther evil of seeing them sold at prices distrdctive of all fair trade, it being evident tbat the mer ants cannot compete in prices with these free-booters. . We would first take leave to submit whether the dragoman, whose duty is to attend at the custom-house, or some other attentive, vigilant, and faithful person, might not most usefully attend at. the custom-house, to watch closely the unloading 4641 vessels from the islands in the Archipelago, and whether you could not direct him to stop or sequester all British manufactures and other goods suspected of being pirated ; for although it be difficult for the merchant to shew or prove his property in these goods, since the pirates invari ably destroy or leave the original packages on board the plundered vessels, yet it is too evident they are stolen, and may be considered as so much property lost to his Majesty's subjects, either merchants or under writers ; the very fact of the existence of an import trade in British goods from the islands in the Archipelago is a conclusive proof of piratical robbery ; for hitherto there has always been an export trade of this description from Smyrna. It would be a point, we believe, of easy proof, to show that in more than one of the islands of the Archipelago the constituted authorities not only countenance, but participate in the piracies which we are complaining of ; but as, in addition to the much to be-regretted liberty of search allowed to the Greeks, we believe one Court has been considered by his Majesty's Government as warranted to condemn property, the in aueace of the authorities in question must be limited, if it were but a temporary measure only. It strikes us as one much to be desired, that British subjects be appoint ed agents in those islands near which the piracies have been committed, and where the pirated property in part is taken for sale; from such agents much good might result, but our experience allows us to hope much less certainly from the appointment of peoplilfom the country. Apprehending that it will be a work of mach time and difficulty to exterminate pirates in the Levant . , who on the appearance of his Majesty's cruisers, take every precaution t, remove evidences of their guilt by concealing their plunder, and by disarming theniVelves and their craft, to assume t h e appearance of quiet, industrious seafaring men, we most earnestly solicit you to represent strongly to his Mojesty's Ambassador at the Porte, to the Commanders of his Majesty's ships, and to other British auslustities, how necessary their vigilant and powerful interference has become to the protection of British interests; and we venture t i add, that in the absence of direct evidence to warrant the detention of suspected stolen gocdr, a variety of cir cumstantial and collateral proofs could be adduced to satisfy every impartial and well-informed man of the necessity of adopting severer measures than hitherto— such as obliging the ostensible proprietors to prove their title to the goods by the production of invoices, if fairly bought ; or of certificates of condemnation, if legally adjudged by the Greek Admiralty Court; thus throw tag the onus of prcof on the suspected person, instead of requiring the merchant to identify goods he never saw. Without some extraordinary and rigorous measures of this kind, neither piracy nor this traffic can be arrested in their origin and progress; and we may presume that his Majesty's Government would sanction every step taken to protect British interests .comistent with public justice and the honour of the British name; and at a moment . like the present, when on land the Greeks have been driven to their last fortress, and by sea every kind of subordination seems to have ceased, when the Greek vessels appear to have abandoned all hope of success, as well as to have relinquished all efforts against their enemies—we say, at a moment like this, with a unmhtr of armed Greek vessels, without any chance of existence but plunder left them, the prosper: is an awful orrefor British commerce in the passage of her shipping up and down the Archipelago, without the powerful assiatente of every at:n which his 1114jesty's Government ciatyppt forward in her defence. L 4 ' • • -.,. We beg to recommend yoiir aiieving ,the_l:friat agent at Milo, where vessels bound upwards , usually, tall for pilots, to acquaint all Masters of the drinpya to be apprehended from pirates ; -*Ess pretaMitniTitlho first instance, and also to desire all the ConsulsAdris 'in the island., and other place s in the Archipelago r lo exert themselves vigilantly in looking after to d goods, and to repor t to y ou f requent l y t h e b oat i $ E.- Iron they can obtain o f t h e Joanno in which sir& net that acquired, for hat plaies — they maybe destinsl, and severally to take every portblensearstirettrter . ip the same fir the inve st ie at i on o f the Commanaka, I s his Majesty's ships and other public authorities.

Imperial vessel Pellicle, Captain Marie Rigenoovich, and stopped at the Custom-house, in course of landing by your orders, have been seen by us, and are without doubt part of the property lost ; but these goods having been taken out of the original packages, and marks and numbers so altered as to make it extremely difficult to identify them on a first view, we beg to recommend that 'you order a safe warehouse to be rented, to which theie And other similarly detained goods may be removed illi• mediately on landing, there to remain for your decision arid delivery to the bondfade owners, after deliberate in. vestigation.
