The Greeks sir that they have t7.ken z emvele and too brigs
belonging to the Turkish rim • burnt a fripue, sad sulk 40 or 60
boats, with troops on board. Th, fallowing is a copy of what our
friends in tinayma write us:—" We have no Tosintre news about
Samos. It is bch.•ved that the Capitan Pachausfeasthe landing on.
that Isle of the 80.000 men, who are ready for that purpose, is
order to divert the attention: of the Grecian shirt, to the number of
70. and to give, besides. time to the division. slfich, they say,
sailed on the 12th from Muni, is order to attack Hydra and Spat-
:la, to arrive." _

SEPT! 19!

We received yesterday a letter front Smyrna.
August. written at the moment M the departure of the vessel which
brought the same. Samos had cot thoi keen a:tucked by the
Tut Its, but was expected to be so every motncut sad it was raid as
certain that it must inevitably fall. The Capitan Paella detached
from his fleet a frigate, a corvette, and two Tunisian brigs, to de-
mire the Grecian squadron (amounting to 70 mil), and impede
their molesting the squadron from Alexandria. rspxting which
nothing positive was known in Smyrna on the 23.1 of August. nor
is there any thing known of the: rquadron up to this moment here.
It is quite certain that the tireeks have ruined the division detached
by the Capitan Pacha. They blew up the fright:, took the CM.
veto, and ran on shore the Tunisians, which they say consaued
Arse brigs, and not two. as before stated. This fact the Greeks
concerted into a general action, in which thlv sal I the Capin's'
Pasha had been blown up into the sir, and the Turkish Sea burnt,
taken, or diacastul but this is the real state of the business. The
Greek squadron, after this achievement, anchors] of Scala ;ewes,
which put in a ferment about 0,0e3 or 70,00) Turks. collected
there for the attack on Samos. but nothing had happened. It ap-
pears that s'.l opinions concur in timyr.na, that the attack on Samos
not take place until the Egyptian squadron has arrived In a
ctrain latitude. .
A letter has been received from Smyrna, dated the 23,1 August
(via Trieste). in which it is stated Samos had rot been then at.
tacked by the Turks, and would not be until the revs teethed the
Pacha ofthe Egyptian squadron's having strived at a certain plate.
Al Turkish Inge:. and sloop of war, together with two Tunisian
brigs. had been sent by that barbarian in order to keep in check
die Greek squadron. his, however. had attacked the Turkish di.
vision, blown up the friga:e, taken tits sloop, and suck thebrip.
After this rictery the Greeks had entered the port of Scala Noma.
avid put the 60.000 Turks, there collected for the expedition against
Santos, in total confusion.—Another letter from Smyrna, dated
September 22. states that the Greeks attacked a detached portion
of the Turkish fleet. couellthig of 71.1. transports, a frigme, a brig,
and a corv,tte, and succeeded in destroying the frigate and CO trans.
ports, and in capturing the brig and corvette. This of dir Is said
to have occulted about three leagues Rom Samos.
