We have received the Mowing details respecting the affairs of Greece from a corresp6ndent :•••• 11100, OCT 2.—The affitirs of the Mures are g o ing on very well. 'I he Turks besieged in Co rinth lately made a sortie from the Acropolis, but vigorously repulsed by Culocotrone, they re-entered, after losing 6,000 men. At present they amount only to 4,000, reduced to the last extremity, and in a few days they will be forced to surrender. Napoli di Romani holds out yet, though it has not been supplied by the Turkish fleet, and it is on the point of surrendering, at least if the friends of the Turks, the Austrians, behaving both unjustly and unhu manly, do not succeed supplying it us they have already attempted, when the Turkish fleet left Cape klelee. The Government has been installed at liertnione (Castel), and has recommended its opera tions with much energy. The•affairs of Candia are also going on admirably. Three Paellas lately col lected their troops near Handaka, and with some of them fresh, just arrived from Egypt, they attacked the (reeks and penetrated as far as Spakia, but the brave Spakiots, with the other Candians, fought the enemy vigorously at the village of Ingros, near Hendata, dispersed and killed a great number, and forced the rest to gain, precipitately, the fortresses of Canee and Bithimi, where they are at present besieged. In this battle the Greeks took three pieces of cannon, and SG pieces of ammunition.— From Egypt we learn that the Cessions have cap tured, near Berouti, fourteen Egyptian vessels, .loaded with corn, rice, and coffee, in returning they Met two vessels loaded with Greek prisoners, whom they delivered. The Algetine . and Egyptian squa drons have received orders to return to their respec tive ports, because the Pucha of Acre and the inha bitante of Mount Libanon arc in open revolt against the Porte. Canter, OCT. 24.—Four vessels, which have just arrived here from Calamate, Missolongo, and Drage masto, have breiight the following newsz---The Turk/eat 'present besieged in Corinth only amount to 4,060 men, their numbers having been much • thinned by the different battles, and by disease. Two thousand Albanians, forming pun of the Turkish army, offered to surrender on condition of going out of the isthmus with their arms, but their prtTosals were rejected. As the Acropolis of Curinth is closely besieged, the Turks, nearly destitute of pro visions and amnsunitition, will be obliged to surren der in a few days. Napoli di Romani will only hold out for a few days more, for it received no supplies from the Turkish fleet. Chourschid Pacha has sent another army of 2,000 men against Livadie. This army, commanded by Vrani niche and Curcandoli, advanced to the TherniepyLe, but attacked by Odys- ICUS, it lost nearly two-thirds of its numbers, and the remainder were cut to pieces in their flight by Captain Contojean in the defiles of Gravia. Mier this battle Odysseus advanced to Donlon", u town of Thessiey, tidier leaving a sufficient number of troops to besiege Zeitouni. Choursellid Pacha has retreated to Jamave; his troops amount only to 1,000. An inhabitant of frieali, arrived here two days ago, intorn.s us that the Pacha is making every exertion to alect inure troop:, but it is ha. possible, because the Turks demand an account of the 30,000 men who entered the Peloponnesus, and have nut returned. Ile also infiirms us that Cap.. Taste is master of Olympus, and prevents all :fen muniesttion with. Salouica. Captain Sturnati has roused into rebellion all the villages situated On the descent of I'indus towards Thessaly. The Acarint aliens sent Captains Barnakiote and Ise.° to Ana, heparently to capitulate with Omar Paella, but actu ally to ascertain his three, and the disposition of the Albanians. At their return the Acurnanians mode great preparations, not only to prevent every attatl. on the part of Omar, but even to act on the (Mea -1 sive. They learned that the Albanians of Berate and of Alden° hail taken up arms against Odiar Pacha, had killed his nephew, and captured la. harem. They demand die son of Ilinibrium Paclir fur their Governor, who is at present imprisoned in the fortrvss ofJunnina.

He has sent to the Acarnanians lately to lay down their arms, and to surrender, but they replied, they would never be under his dorni-. nion unless as corpses; that it was usalcu to wend any thing but troops to them, whom they Wac ready to receive. The Acarnanians have taken their measures, have sent their women and children on the other side of Asprepoteme, and those who are capable of bearing arms, to the number of 8,000, are firmly resolved to perish or conquer, but not to abandon their country a prey to the enemy. The neighbouring foreigners have employed all sorts of intrigues to deceive the Acarnanians, to oblige them to lay down their arms and follow the example of the Souliots, who were deceived by the same fo reigners, but they have produced no effect on the mind of the Acarnanians. They have many exam ples bafore them, which they know how to profit by. I add a letter written by Captain !decry to his countrymen on the 23d September, Old Style. He says, "My brothers liiromerires, I inform you by this letter that I have received your letter which you sent me. I have comprehended the contents, and have seen that it was necessary for us to be united to repulse the enemies. You know, my bro thers, that the Greeks of Cravari, of Apocoro, and of Zeggo, assembled at Vrachory, where our Presi dent, hlaurocordato, and the Archontes, are also. • I am at Cartrina with I,3oovnen, and to-morrow we hope to set out from here, and the othersikom Vrachory, to go against our enemies with the firm resolution, under the name of the Almighty, to die with arms in our hands, and not like women. We are to meet.ut Machala. Without taking any other baggage than your muskets end ammunition, set out without loss of tiAao, that we may all togeher prevent the evil." THE CONGRESS'. —was— VERONA, Now. 13.—The Ministers of Austria. Russia, France, and Prussia, in colleen with the Duke of Wellington, continue their conferences. There is reason to believe that the presont situation of the East, and the affairs of Spans, have hitherto been the only two objects on which the discussions of the Plenipotentiaries have turned. The Archduke Ferdinand d'Este, military gover nor of Hungary, has obtained permission front the Supreme Council of War at Vienna to quit Baden, where he had his head-quarters, to attend the Con gress. He is expected to arrive here shortly. It is positively asserted that the Emperor Alex under will leave us on the loth of December next, his Majesty having determined to return to the capital of his Empire in time for the Christmas fes tival. It is said that one of the Emperor's Adjutant Generals, who Set out two days ago with despatches for St. Petersburg!), is directed to communicate his Majesty's determination to the Ministry and the Se nate. It is generally believed, that independently of the definitive resointions, which will emanate from the Congress, the Russian cabinet has already adoptcxt a definitive determination with regard to Turkey.— Thus, it has been remarked, that the communica tions between this city and St. Petersburgh are very active. The Russians who are here concern them selves but little about the different subjects which are submitted to the Congress; the afl irs of the Utast alone fix their att;mtion. 1 he Greek Deputies, having undergone at Ancona the quarantine established by the Political Govern ment, have set out, and are already atrived at Ala, a little town situated between Verona and Roveredo. I t is understood that as soon as the Nlnaister of State, Count Cap° d'lstrit, arrives, they twill obtain per minion to come here. The King of Prussia has sent for Count Kleist. This Field Nlorslial, who hos just ken appointed Nltnister of the Council of Skate, enjoys great itiflu mice in the Prussian cabinet.

BATONNP, Nov. 19.—Frequent couriers past through, to and from Madrid. One dispatched by the l~rench Ambassador, and who left Aladrid on the 16th, reports that every thing was trier at the moment of his departure. On the 10th and 11th the Cortes discussed and approved the plan for ft/. reign legions. Travellers daily arriving from the Peninsula corn. plain bitterly of the great number of robbers who infest the high toads; but otherwise tranquillity generally prevails, especially in the great towns The most perfect union continues between the Cortes and the Ministry. The writer of a late article in the Journal dee Dents seems not to be acquainted with Spain, or, at least, he mast have been misinformed ; for to believe that modifications in the Constitutien might by force of arms is an illusion. The new system has struck toe deep root—the revolution must pro ceed in its course: the liberals know that they can not go back, and that they are able to surmount all obstacles to the consolidation of their work. The invasion oftjf a c ic ountry by a great army, supposing it could even 11 Madrid, would increase the dis order and anarchy, but not lead to the triumph which is desired, Spain is not a rich nation, whose people dread a foreign enemy—the great mass has nothing to lose; naturally paw and miserable, they are always ready to take up arms, and there is no doubt that the present government has sufficient means to set them in motion. It is bet too true that the three Biscayan provinces and Navarre would be glad to sec an auxiliary army which would re store them the privileges and commercial immuni ties which they enjoyed before the revolution; but this would have no essential influence in the interior —for these provinces have always been considered as if they were a foreign country ; the rest of the nation was jealous of the immunities they enjoyed, and hail frequently demanded the suppression of them, and the Andalusians, Castilians. and other people of the Peninsula, would desire no better than to make war there, respecting the place; which ma. nifest attachmelit to the Constitution, such as W hoa, Vittoria, Ste. It appears certain that if the late ministry had . proceeded boldly, in a constitu tional manner, there would not now be any insur gents in the three provinces, or in Navarre, notwih. standing the protection they have received abroad ; for, in tact what have Eguia, Qiaesada, &c. hitherto done ? In all this time, though they flatter them. selves with having the inhabitants in their favour, they here not been able to possess themselves of a a single mita 'oppet in the country, except that miserable furtified outise Irati, which they would have lust long ago it Espinosa had chosen to take it; whereas the constitutionalists, though they cannot depend .on the inhabitants, like their adversaries, still maintain' theuiselv:s with a handful of brave men. The Gazette of St. Sebastian contains nothing in teresting, it merely mentions the arrival At Vittoria of two battalions from the interior. The Saragersa Gazelle says that Mina, whose head-quarters were at Agramunt on the Bth, hoped to approach Urgel in a few days. The coutpaiii ot Maplelets under his command has lately lx-en rein timced by SOO deserters front the army of General Endes. The same journal says that lialim.stro is evacuated by the Tril ppiit, and that the troops of Veheco again occupy toe banks of the Cinea trunt Fraga to Anda,guesa. Another battle was slain expected on the ban!:h of the S:gra, iu the territory of °liana. It is supposed to be the plan of Erules to draw Mina into his ahnost inaccess.tble position.
