LONDON. WEDNESDAY. OCTOEEN 20. 1824.
Ens; night we received the J.:toile of Monday, and the
other Paris Papers of Sunday. The Etnile gives a further
renfirmation of the Greek naval victory over the Turks
•arol Egyptians. The Carrrtl.l PACII A is said to have
roiled his disasters by dying of grief, and IBRAHIM PAC!! A
ac on his return to Egypt, where he will doubtless consider
IVmself fortunate to arrive safely. On a smaller scale, the
destruction of this expedition reminds us of the defeat of the
invincible Spanish Armada in the days of our Elizabeth.
'Elie Paris Papers contain nothing else of the slightest in-
'west. The royalist journals are filled with the details of
Ee anniversary ceremony of the death of the unfortunate
Pol AR :F. ANTOLNETEE. The Constitutionnet, in its private
correspondence from Perpignan, gives another proelama-
fon from the Spanish police, quite equal in atrocity to that
of Cox Za trz, which we published a few days ago. This
is from MANUEL therm, the Intendant of Police in Ca-
talonia. It breathes destruction against the Constitu-
tionalists. It terminates in these words—" Let the perfi-
dious enemies of legitimacy tremble, and give positive
proofs of their repentance, if they would not be annihi-
lated !"

Lepanto., Napoli, and Rhodes. I)ritvisit PACIIA undo himself

bring /lady assailer! by the Greeks, who have made some prisoners, '
ant carried off a quantity of baggage.
A 11.1,10, which has arrived from Rhodes in nine days, declares
that the Egyptian fleet was blockaded at ISodrouni, and that of
the Caere AN PAcsa at Cos; that discord reigns between the Son
Of MeIIEMET Al.h and the CAPITAX l'Arll.ll, the former being
enwilling to obey the orders of the Turkish Admiral. Conster-
nation and a fatal epidemic were raging in both annia, anti men
and limes died in great nunthas. The European transports were
particularly alarmed.
The news from Napoli gives the official news of a fresh at.
tazk of the Greeks on the Turkish fleet, in which they succeeded
ir burning two frigates, two corvettes, and two brigs, and captor-
i•ig fcur ships of war, besides a number of transports. This news
Win proclaimed at Napoli on the 10th a( September.
Ge-eral Sir Faximatcx ADAM, anxious to expiain the mis-
take relative to the measures which he had taken against the Greek
Navy, in ordering reprisals to be made in cor.sequenee of some cr-
aves issued by the Greek Government, is about to reysir in person
to Napoli. Ile is well disposed to respect the noble character of
the liellenista ; ant we are confident that he will meet with an
tonourable reception. We trust that this dl. lmed ditra..sict: will

The reports which have reached this country through 1
France and Germany, relative to a signal victory gained by
the Greeks over the combined fleets of Turkey and Egypt, '
were confirmed yesterday by the receipt of official des-
patches from Greece. We are not able this morning to
lay before our readers more than the substance of these
despatchts. We understand that the Greek fleet fell in
with the Maboinetan armament near liodrouni, and that a
desperate engagement ensued, which terminated in the de-
struction of so vessels, and 7 large ships of war, belonging
to the combined fleet, and in the capture of upwards of 30
more. Thelatter were mostly neutrals, and we arc told, that
after the Turkish stores, contraband of war, had been taken
out of them, the vessels were allowed to depart freely.
IVe are also much gratified to learn, that the misunder-
standing between the Anglo-lonian Government and the
Greeks has been removed. Sir FREDERICK ADAM, it was
said, had proceeded to Messoloitglii in person, and had
there obtained a satisfactory explanation of the intentions
of the Creek Goverinnent, from whom an immediate revo-
cation of the offensive proclamation was expected. We
cannot well express how much satisfaction we feel at this
happy arrangement, which, by the way, is a complete
answer to all the scandalous imputations cast upon the
KING'S Ministers, with reference to the just and sa-
lutary promptitude of the retaliatory measure. We have
seen letters from Trieste, dated the 20th of September,
which agree with these accounts in every particular.
We congratulate every friend to the struggling Greeks
on the whole of this intelligence, which is as favourable as
their warmest wishes could desire. From an article copied
in another column from the Allgemeine Zeihing, it appears
that the insincerity of the Viceroy of Fever bad roused
the indignation of the Pour s, who, it was expected, would
denounce him as an enemy. There wants but this pre-
tence to induce Mt:HEMET Au to follow the example of
the Greeks, and declare himself independent. We may
look forward to every arrival from the Levant for this final
aggravation of the SULTAN'S difficulties. The revolt of
Egypt would be the signal for the defection of almost every
Paeha far enough removed from Constantinople to give
him a reasonable chance) of success in his rebellion.

Greek l'apers to the 16th of August have been received.
They do not contain much news of importance. iVe take
the following abstract of them from an Evening Paper:—
It appears that after the victory obtained by SNALTIA near Sa-
lons. several other actions took plate between the Greek and
Tutkish threes in that quarter, in all of which the former have been
successful. It does not appear that the Albanese Pachas of Janina
and icudra (Omen VRIONES and AIOCSTAI DACHA) have yet
made any movement against the Greeks ; at least, up to a late
period, the Paella of Sconaa was entirely inactive, and Ossea
TACNA was lying near Arta, with only 1,000 soldiers, very tempi-
cioas of tae intentions of the SC LT•N towards him. In Arta itself
the plague prevailed.
In addition to the list of vessels under the neutral flag in the err-
vice of the Puha of EGYPT, the Friend ofthe Low of the 4th Mich
of August), says, that there are seventeen Spanish, four Russian,
one Tuscan, and one American, roads, of which the names are
nut loosen, at lilra.
The Friend Mr Lase of the Ist (13th) of August, contains
an address front the President of the Provisional Government,
CONIN;ItIOTTIS, to all the Greeks. After stating the force of
the Egyptian fleet, and the IVlCUsuref taken by the Government to
meet them at sea, the President proceeds, on account of the un-
certainty of the issue of the naval combats, to give directions as
to the measures to be taken if the enemy should effect a landing.
After a general exhortation to vigilance, he directs all the inhabit-
ants of the coasts to remove their families and provisions into the
fortresses and the interior, and to lay waste the country wherever
the enemy sacald appear. lie then calls upon all the inhabitants
of every degree to arm themselves. lle states that the present
attempt is formidable, because the Turks In despair had collected
the whole of their disposable three. The Egyptian expedition he
reckons at 20.010 men, fifty-six vessels of war, and one hundred
transports. lie concludes by exhorting his cvuutrynien to prefer
glorious death to shameful servitude.

Last night we received New York and other American
papers to the 18th ult., brought by the Baltic, which has
arrived at Liverpool from New York, which place she left
on the Roth. These journals contain no intelligence of in-
terest. General LA I'AYLTTk continued to be an object of
enthusiastic attention with the American people. One
paper, speaking of the arrival of a quantity of tine peaches
at New York, says, "they will make a dish to set before
a king ;'—nay, more, before LA FAYETTE."

The latest accounts train Alatanzas state that the most active
pursuit was continued after Rodriguez, who had issued there tot in-
siirreetionary proclamation, and had but tin followers in his flight
thence. The United States schooner Wild Cat was cruising on the
thl inst. between Havana and Matanzas.
The Savanualt papers of the 7th speak of the continued good
health of that city. The Natchez lliesissipion of the dlat ult.
mentions that Natchez was then "free from every appearance of
malignant disease," and that there were " no local causes to engen-
der it."
A Carraccas paper of the 25th ult. which we received by the
Velocipede, contains no news. The post due on the llith hail not
arrived from Bogota. Heavy rains in the interior caused the delay.
