LON1)ON, FRII)AY, JULY 1, 1825.

The only intelligt nee in the French papers which arrived
last night relates to the Greek contest. The Austrian (M-
-otive, reluctantly confirms the intelligence of the victory
Of MIAULIS, and the other successes of the Pa'riots. Old
Navarino, of which las/tutu PACHA had obtained pos-
session, is only a sort of letc-de-post, by which the Isle of
Sphagia is covered on the north side. This Isle closes the
Bay of Navarino, in the southern part of which the real
fortress, or New Navarino, is situated. There will be an
end, we suppose, now, to the system of fabricating news
unfavourable to the Greeks. We give the article front the
Austrian Older rer at length, as it is of importance, as the
admission of a decided enemy that the Greek cause is
triumphant.
[From the Etoile, dated Wednesday.l
The Austrian Observer was eon/thievishly in sneer with news
from Turkey. In its number of leth June, it at length gives a
letter from Constantinople of 23th May. It is of execeeive length,
and contains, in a great degree, only facts already known ; but it
confirms, at last, the triumph of the Greeks. The following is
$ faithful extract from it :
The Sultan lately lost his two eldest sons ; the smallpox has
sow deprived hint of his daughter Minira. In consequence, all the
public reioieines usual at the commencement of the Heiman have
bees prohibited.
Some important 64540040 taken tisce in the admlnistratiot
of the Imperial treasury. Amore remarkable nomination is that
of Ahmed Chelasse Kffeeth, first Maitre des Bemeetea (this is the
French title that the Artstritss Observer gifts him) to the dignity of
'fbehausch Becht, or Grand Marshal of Me Empire. Baron de
Mattita, hitherto only Minister resident of Prussia to the Porte,
has been mired by his Sovereign to the rank of Ambassador Extra.
ordinary • and M. de Costello, Consul General of Spain at Odessa,
has arrived at Constantinople, with the title of Charge d'Affaires.
The accounts from Western Greece speak favourably of the first
movement at' Rettechot Yacht to advance to Missolemeti, which
it beeer defended by its position between the sea and marshes than
be its fo tificattons. Itedschid cannot attempt more than a mere
bl wkaee on the land side, because the etentounications of the
Greeks by sea are quite free. No action has yet been fought in
that quarter.
Ire have much less precise accounts of what has passed in
Eas.em Greece. A Proclamation of General Goitre denounces to
the Greeks the Englislinian Trelawny as the infamous agent when)
the Turks had employed to corrupt Odysseus. The latter is de-
cidedly in prison, where be awaits has trial.
The siege of Navarino, by Ibrahim Pacha, has given occasion
to several very warm actions. That of the 19th April, in particu-
lar, was attended with great loss on both sides. The Egyptians
I ot in it their Cahnaca a, anti their Kiaja Bey ; that is to soy, their
tee chief commanders next to Ibrahim. tin the I Ith May, the
Egyptians occupied Ohl Navarino, situated in the little island of
Sphaggia. On the 12th, the fortress of Navarino offered to capitu-
late, upon terms which lborfaim thought too advantageous. The
lire was then reitened, as well with the heavy cannon lately
arrived from Egypt, as with that of the twelve ships of war at an-
ther in the port. The Greeks did not return this fire, and re.
utained in their casemate'. Every thing announced the speedy
surrender of the place, and it would have been impossible for it
to have resisted long, but for the efforts of Admiral bliaulie, the
nem daring and most able of the Captains, who had the boldness
several times to traverse the Egyptian fleet, and to penetrate to
' the town of Nayarit" where he landed soldiers and ammunition.
The Weeks are also indebted to the assistance of several Eutopeata
officers, of different nations, among whom the PiedmonteseGeneral,
Santa Rosa, is mentioned.
But after the despatches arrived from Smyrna, and the report of
the Dutch Colonel Bottlers, who quitted the roads of Motion on
the 12th May, at tine o'clock, p. in., and who was sill oft' the
roast, the following night, it is proper to wait to see what in-
fluence the events that took place in the nigh: of the 12th of May
will have on the operations of the Egyptian army in the Mecca.
'e must re-capitulate what preceded these events.
At the beginning of April the Egyptian fleet, composed of 9
nigntee, 10 corvette', and 21 brigs and echeoners, had returned
train Motion to Suds, to embark the reinforcemente expected
from Egypt. Seven clays after, the Egyptian squadron, of II '
sail, which had re-victualled Paints, also returned to Suda. On
the 23ili of April appeared the convoy front Egypt, consisting oil
European vessels, having ow Ward 2,inio troops and anununi-1
tion, artillery, boneseate.
On the 27th the whole nest united, amounting to 91 vessels,
sailed front Soda, and doubled Caps -Mattes. The next day
Admiral bliattlie appeared with 26 vessels; and notwithstanding
the inferiority of number, he was going to attack the Egyptians,
wheel a dead calm set in. All the following days lie continued to
pursue the enemy. lie lost two fire-shiparbut he was on the point
of entirely &merot log an Eapkirag frigate.
The Egyptian fleet succeeded in reaching blodon, but already,
on the 3tl May, 31inulis was fn sight, and a cannonade took place,
which had little effect, because the Egyptian+, notwithstanding
the efforts of Ibrahim Pacha himself, who went on board a faucet
to encourage them, did not dare to approach the Greek vessels.
Things remained in this mete till the 2d May. Ibrahim riche
had returned to the camp before Navarino to press the siege, anal
the Egyptian fleet, which was reinforced on the 10th by the Al.
gerine squadron, was at anchor in the port and in the roads of
Motion. All at once. says the report of Col. Ruttier, the Greek
fleet appeared on the 12th May, at six o'clock in the evening, under
the command of Admiral bliaulis, to the number of ivessels.
Miaulis advanced between the islands of Cabrera and Sapienza,
and detached four fire.shies against the Turkish vessels an-,
citoreil in the position. Several of them immediately stood
out to sea ; but the Asia ftigate. of forty-four sues, bulk 1
in Sweden, at the expense of the Viceroy of Egypt, was over-I,
taken by a fire-ship, and devoured by the tiantes in less than a
quarter of an hour. Two corvettes and three brigs, two of' which
defended themselves for a long time, had the mime fate, as well as
several transports that well near shared the saute fate. (The re-
port estimates the number at '2O or more.)
Col. Bottler declares betides, that when he was already at a dis-
tance from Motion, he heard, at half-past ten st night, and at half-
past twelve, two dreadful explosions, tiom which he infers that time
powder magazines of the fortress must have been blown up.
The Caphan Paella has steered with his fleet towards the Ar-
chipelago : he cannot possibly avoid meeting with Adm. Sseeturis,
win is cruising with the second Greek fleet off el itylene.
