Chourschid Pacha has really passed the defiles
of Thermopylae without opposition, because they
were delivered op to him by Odysseus, who retired
to Mount Catavothrs with his troops, • marcistivre
which gives raison to suspect that chief of absolute
treason. to which he hes not fallen • victim, as the
find accounts from the continent stated. to eons,.
gnome of this defection, the Ottoman Sersakier ad-
mitted to Livadia, whence be proceeded without
meeting with any resistance to Salons, where he
lied his head-quarters. When Chourschid Ptech•
arrived at Salons, he found there t transports,
which had already arrived from the Adriatic, sod
put troops na board them. which landed on the
toast of Vasilica (formerly Sycipsi), where having
assembled to the number of 10,000, they left that
place to advance into Argolis by the defile of Trete,
leaving Corinth on the left. So for all went on
successfully for the Infidels; but when they arrived
at Rib they were suddenly attacked by Colocotroni
sod Mauro.Michalis,.who defeated them, and forced
them to retreat by Nerves in the village of St.
George, where it is affirmed they are surrounded.
While these events were passing in the north of
the Mores, the Turkish fleet landed at Perms some
troops, which advanced to Vostiza (Egina), which
they burnt, after which, being harassed and beaten
st the defile of Troopia fis Agiat beau, they were
obliged to retseat to the point from which they eat

out. Such are the reverses and successes ols the
contending parties in the Ilelisponneaus.
In the' midst of this conflict, the Greeks are
matters of Athens, of the defiles of the litmus, of
' the Acre-Corinth, of Nsup and- of all the
fortresses in the peninsula and the mountains. In
this state of things it may be asked, what can the
Turks du? Mischief, without doubt, bat as for
coriteering the country that is another Matter.
Mauro Cordato had arrived at Missolungi du the
iii.6th of Jul!: ; the troops of Odysseus, who had
abandoned hini, were dispersed about Paruassus
and the mountains of Phosia, so that Choursehid
Pachs wits greatly impeded in his communications.
The English at present hold out a helping hind
to the Greeks. and since the departure of Sir T.
Maitland, it has been observed that the rigorous
measures have ceased with his presence. At Zsote
an asylum has been grunted to the family of Papa-
Diamassti-Poulos, member of the Senate of Co-
rinth, and to several other persons who fled from the
Coutinent at the approach of the Infidels. Sir F.
Adam, Governor of Corfu, ad interim, who is
married to a divorced Greek lady, gives assistance
to the unfettunate ; thus there is a change of po-
licy on this tide; but unless God assists the Greeks,
it is to be feared that the approaching Congress

at Marseilles for Greece. Dr. D. has promised
that when he arrives in Greece he will transmit a

Fugitives from Jassy bring the following partici'.
tars of the dreadful scene of the 10th of August :
" Three hundred Janissaries who had secretly re-
ceivr d the cruel order, suddenly returned and set
the city on fire is forty places at once. In a few
hours all was in flames. Nine churches and seven
nmousterits are burnt, sod it is supposed several
thousand hordes. In the midst of the confiner
tion the Janissaries dragged the boyars and magi-
strates out of their houses, the burning of which
they witnessed, and compelled them in the sight of
this misery to sign a paper. declaring their convic•
tion that this hellish fire was caused by accident.
The new Caimacan is said to have been hurried off
in the confusion to Sili.tria. The fugitives say an
evacuation is nut to be thought of now, and if it
takes place, it will be with fire and sword."— (AM-
