LORD BYRON To PRINCE MAYROCORDATO.
CEPUALONIA, Dye. 2. IBM

Prtiecr,—The present will be put into ymil bands by Colonel
Strihope, son of 3lajor.tioneral the Ertl of Harrington, Ate. Ike.
Ile has a-rived fnwn ter Of y days, after having visited all
the Committees of ilentiany. lie is charged by our Committer in
act in concert with me for the liheration of Greece. I conceive that
his came and his mission will ir• a sufficient recommendation, with-
out the necessity of any other from a foreigner, nithough one, who,
in common with all Eumpe, respects and admires the courage, the
talenrs„ and above all, the probity of Prince Mavrocortlato.
I am very uneasy at heanng tiiat the dimensions of Greece still
continue, and at a moment when she might triumph veer every.
thing in g:neral, as she has already triumphed In part. Greece Is,
at present, placed between three measures; either to re-conquer
her liberty, oe to become a dependence of the soveerigns of Europe.
or to return to a Turkish province; the h 3; the choice only of
these three alternatives. Civil use is but a road which leads to the
two latter. If she is desirous of the Cite of Walachia and the
Crimea, she may obtain It tnnmnrenc if of that of Italy, the day
after: but if she wishes to became fridg Greece, fret and ink-
pendent. she must revolve to-dry, or &ha will never again have
the opportunity.
I am, with due respect,
Your Ilighness'a obedient servant.
N. n.
PA. lingo Highboys will already have known, that I have sou .;ht
to Mill the wishes of the Greek Grvernment, as much as It laid
in my power to do ; but I shaulii wish that the A:et, so long
and SO vainly expected. were arrived, or at least, that it were
on the way, and especially that your Highness sionild approach
these pans either oo board the Aart, with a public mission, or in
some other manner.

111031 LORD BYRON TO COI.ONF:l. STANHOPE.
Seraer, or smne such nanil, on board a
Cephaloniote listirz. 31st.
MY PFAU ST AWIIOTE.—We Ste just arrived here, that it, part
of my iseople and I, with some things, fcc., and which it may be
as welt not to specify in a letter ( which has a risk of beine inter-
cepted, perhaps), but tiamba and my horses, negro, steward, and
the press, and all the Committee things, also souse eight thousand
dollars of mine, (but never mind, we have more left :—do you un-
derstand %) are taken by the 'Turkish frigates, and my party anti
myself, its another beat. have had a narrow escape last night. (be-
ing elm under their stern, and hailed, but we would not answer,
and bore away.) as well na •nis Morning. Hero we are, with sun
and clearing weather, within a pretty little pn-t enough ; but whe-
ther our 'Turkish friends may not send id their boats and take it.
out. (Mr we have na arms, except two carbine's anti some pistols.
and. I suspect, not more than for fighting people on board.) is
another question. especially if we remain {unit here, since we are
blocked trot of 3limolonwhi by the direct entrance. You had better
send my friend, George Drake. nod a body of Submit, to escort us
by land, or by the canala, with all convenient speed. (samba and
out Iknribard are taken into Patna, I suppose, and we must take
a turn at the Turks to get them out but where the devil is the
ticzt gone ? the Greek I mean. leaving us to get in without the
least intimation to take heed that the 3loaleitis were out again.
Make my reap:chi tollavrocorilato, and my, that I ant here at his
disposal. lam uneasy at being here ; not minuet) on our own ac.
count as on that of a /heck boy with me. for vent know what his
fate woold be ; and I would sooner cut list, in piece. and myaell
too, than have I taken out by thole barbarians. We are all very
well.
