claim. There seems no reason to comider the dem-

Just'; a guarantee being given for the payment of
the claims on Portugal, should M. Pacifico show in

and that he could have done so, had he had the docu-
mentary evidence lost in his halm M. Pacifico
receives the 5001. for his personal itloolllrfeleCCO, and
for the delay. Mr. Finlay has received 30,000 in-
stead of 45,000, the sum asked. The same for the
boatmen are paid in full, so that the account steads

This then is the sum finally paid, which any honest
shopkeeper would have suggested in as many hours
as our fleet has been detailed months. Toe question
at the court of King Otho has unfortunately been,
not what to pay, but to contrive not to pay, for this
object. Ministers have been sent, intrigues without
end spread far and wide, and falsehoods disseminated
in every language; and when M. Gros's mountain
prodooed at last the moose, even this was thought
too large an animal to be borne with. The ultimatum
on by Mr. Wyse and M. Gray, was rejected.
tie blockade re-imposed, the question asked what was
r.quired—the same terms offered : all accepted next
day and the money paid two days afterwards in dol-
lars. The guarantee was included in this payment ;
the bank notes would have been received for this
purpose as williegly. Xing Otho, or his adviser,,
foreign and domestic, believed or at cted to do so,
that the British admiral had no power to re-impose
the blockade, and therefore it was determined to ran
the risk of greater demands and augmented severities
rather than believe the simple fact. In the mean
time the state of things was brought before both cham-
bers, sad each refused to consider it as not having beet
previously consulted. The greatness of the force and the
shorties, of the time allowed was evidently intended
to enforce the settlement (not payment, for there
had been no investigation) of the claims, without
calling down on the nation all those evils which have ,
followed from the mode of treating it adopted by the
Xing s govercraent and their foreign advisees ; bat
I let not the humane Englishman sigh over the poor
Greek fisherman, whose fate the Times and Lord
Stanley deplore. Neither they nor any Greek boatmen
were pprree►ented from going to sea, and only about 40
(all decked) vessels were detained, selectid from
many in different ports. Had not French good offices
spirited away the large man of war corvette from the
Ortek watery, her detention would Dave sufficed, in-
stead of that of the merchant brigs (two-thirds of
which were light) taken to make up the deficit.
These were to be seen last week towed out of
Salamis by British boats, and a steamer took
two of them thirty and more miles back to Spine ;1
as there has been no oorn trade this winter, the in-
jury has not been anything tits the absurd calcula-
tions given out. The keg to Greek vessels in foreign
poets which have been refund cargoes in cone gasses
of the blockade, cannot be known, and therefore the
aboard attempt of the nines to make the loos equal to,
nine millions of drachmas, which is there stated to be
the revenue of Greece, is sheer+, -and serves only to
show the spirit in which " our correepoodent" wastes.
The declaration of the sum writer that all the crop
were destroyed by the sold, has had the useful effect
here (as may he seen by the London price current) of
ruling the pros of currants ; but, except the orange
and lemon tress, sad the olives, me kijary to the crops
has been received: all kinds of grain crops look re-
markably well, and the vines are in a perfect, though
somewhat retarded, state of leaf. It is not the semen,
but the unequaKed inisirumaent sad universal ab-
sence of hichtal sduanistratioa, produced by the
system since Coletti came into office (five years
mass) which has reduced the reveals* from 16
se 17 (which would be equivalent, considt-ring
the increase of caltivation. Bm., to 18 millions
of drachmas this year) to 9 or 10 millioes, be-
tween 300,0001. and 400,0002. • year. As far as
Orem is coneeseed, the petulanse and obstinacy with

bar Mediterranean fleet tor the winter at Salamis in-
