LONDON, SATURDAY, Octosza ii, 111114.

We publish to-day, in another column, the official des-
patch from the Greek Admiral, who commanded the fleet
by which the Turkish armament was defeated of the island
of Samos. The km of the Turks in the vessels that were
burned is estimated at nearly 3,000 men. The fire-ships
were again the Greek instruments of victory. CANARIS
was the fires who succeeded in grappling a Turkish ship;
it was a frigate of the 'ergot size. Ina few minutes she
was in flames, sad soon blew up, with 600 men, who were
crowded on board of her. The explosion was tremendous;
it destroyed some of the spectator, on the neighbouring
coast, aniLtwenty transports, with troops for the invasion
of Samoa. The other flee ships then advanced and spread
destntetion amongst the Turkish fleet. The intrepidity
displayed by the Greek mariners on this occasion appears
to have been fully equal to the highest degree of gallantry
they have abewn in their boldest exploits; and their 100
is accordingly stated in the official accounts not to
have exceeded throe persons. Cawaits, we are glad
to fad, b not amongst the number. The Immediate
connequenoe of the victory was the diversion and flight
of the troops, who were encamped on the adjoining
continent, and who were eye-witnesses of the confla-
gration of the CanTaw Poona's fleet. The Greek
Admiral, in the conclusion of his despatch, pretties for a
eupply of fire-ships, in order that he might complete the
destruction of the remainder of the Turkish vessels, before
they recovered from the panic ; and be then proposes to
encounter the Egyptian fleet. There seems to be every
probability that the Greeks will very speedily annihilate
the Turkish marine, unless the unhappy conflict which the
Gierk Government has so unwisely and unnecessarily pro-
voked with this country, should retard their success. We
canned doubt, however, that the Greeks would instantly
re. ake their offense proclamation, on finding the ener-
getic measnres to which the Anglo-lonian Government had
indium, in vigorous but impartial defence of our neutral
rights. It would be madness for the Greeks to draw upon
themselves, at this moment, the vengeance of a maritime
power lilt England. We hope, therefore, to bear by the
next arrival, tbmt the misunderstanding has been removed,
by the proper concession on the part of the original
°fenders. -

In the Gorman Papers that reached ns last night we
I arc another, account of the naval victory of the Greeks at
Serat,s, which, in all its material facia, agrees with the of.
finial despatch of the Greek Admiral. The German Papers
add r. report that the Egyptian fleet bad been dispersed,
partly by a storm, and partly by the Greeks, and had re-
tired to Candia. But the moat important intelligence is
th- renewal of hostilities by Persia, with the Pony'. The
Tertian Prince, Al tai en Er Au, threatens Bagdad with a
numerous army, which the Turks are wholly unable at
pevecut to withstand. A sedition also exists in Syria. Dif-
&Lath.% multiply daily round the Ottoman throne, the
lit.ol overthrow of which canuot be far remote.

Sem. 'tVith desperate courage the Greeks attacked the CAPIT•N
Pacwa, destroyed his finest frigate of 48 guns, two corvettes of 30,
and four brigs of 18 guns. A number of transports were taken,
and above 3.000 Turks arc said to have perished. Tile Cap' Taw
PACII A hereupon retired, pursued by the ()reeks into the channel
of Stancltio. It is said, indeed, that he means to resume the at.
tack on Samos; but there is the more reason to doubt this, as,
according to some accounts, the Egyptian fleet has been dispersed,
partly by storms, partly by the Greeks, and has retired to Candia.
When the news of the failure of the expedition against Samos
reached Scala Nuova, those undisciplined hordes encamped there,
who had already twice mutinied, and small bodies of whom had
before returned to the Interior, almost entirely dispersed. A snann
of them entered Smyrna, best the PAPUA, who is a ♦ery good
Governor, preserved tranquillity. Official news has been received
from the frontiers of Penis, that the Persian Prince, MEN CSIET
ALt, had recommenced hostilities, and threatened Bagdad. The
Persian army is said to by more numerous than ever, and this new
storm must increase the embarrassment of the PORTE. The Pacha
Of SILIST NIA was mu to take the command of the Persian frontiers.
The Capital was quiet, end nothing bad occurred since the last
crisis.
CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 10.

Nothing has happened to trouble our tranquillity since the depo.
sltion of the Aga of the Janissaries. On the Turkish New Year's
Day, the SULTAN in the public audience addressed the 111 u rt.
(to whom the revenues of Samos formerly belonged), and spoke of
its present state, of which the Mufti took advantage to beg that the
inhabitants might be mildly treated.
The SULTAN is said to have listened to him graciously, but the
late events seem to render this mildness useless. Serious troubles
have broken out in Syria. At Latakia and Tripolis, the 31utsc-
Ilms of the Pacha of At.Ento have been expelled, and the Emir
of the BMWs united with MUSTATA BERSA is marching against
St. Jean d'Acrc to join the Pacha of that city.
The renewal of hostilities with Persia, is, however, the most
alarming for the PORTE. A Consular report from Aleppo, Aug.
16, mentions the renewal of hostilities by Prince M cttx wET ALI,
with the Pacha of BAGDAD, and of bis having occupied Salemania,
tire capital of Curdistsn.
The Ponvx is said to hare long known this circumstance, but
to have endeavoured to conceal it.

The ship Cortes, about whore safety there has been so
much anxiety, has at last arrived at Liverpool ; and last
night we received from that port, by express, New York
papers to the 9th ult. The Nestor, from New York, with
papers eight days later, was expected to reach Liverpool
every hour, but up to the time when we went to press, no
intelligence of her actual arrival had been received. The
moat important news in the papers by the Cortes is the
defection of the Mexican General SA KT•NA, who having
been sent by the Federal Government to rech.ce the pro-
vince of Yucatan to obedience, has put himself at the head
of the insurgents, and opened communications with the
Spaniards at the Ilavannali. lle has published a vindica-
tion of his conduct, in which he violently denounces the
proceedings of the Mexican Government. These papers
arc filled with accounts of the movements of LA FAY& TTE,
and the caliallings respecting the approaching presidential
election. There are also many notices of the outrages of
pirates in the West Indies. The following arc extracts:—
