THE INSURRECTION IN GREECE.

We have at last something like an authentic ac-
count of the revolt at Syra.
A letter from Athens, in the Augsburg Gazette,
dated 15th of March, says :
‘, The steamer which the day before yesterday brought us
our correspondence from Trieste brought also the new. on
an insurrection at Syra. A movement 'rotor nifie seemed
more likely in any other twiirn of Greece than in that en-
trepot z.e-vantine commerce ; it, however, broke out on
the 12th of March, but as the telegraphic wires wore cut
nothing was known of it here.
" On the morning of the 12th a First Lieutenant in the
army, named Leonzakos, a Mainote, commanding the de-
tachment quartered at Syra, consisting of 30 men, and be-
longing to the battalion which raised the standard of revolt
at Nauplia, gave the signal for the insurrection. He was
joined by Lieut. Canaris, son of the ea-Minister; a Second
Lieut. Moraitinis, son of the President of the Areopagus of
Athens. Both had participated in the conspiracy of the
month of May, and were, though acquitted by the tribu-
nals, under the surveillance of the police.

initiated in the conspiracy, for it at once placed two steamers
at the disposal of the insurgents.

" The first attack was directed against the Custom-house,
which contained 500 Minie rifles, ordered firstly by the
Government, but conceded afterwards to the firm of Kloebe
and Co. The rebels seized those arms and the money chests,
and then attacked Austrian Lloyd's, where they pillaged
everything; they then sacked the National Bank, the Go-
vernment Treasury, and embarked on board the Karteria,
belonging to the Greek Navigation Company, and made for
the Isle of Tinos, with a view to gain to their cause the
detachment of 20 men quartered there. The sergeant in
command, however, suspecting treason, prevented the re
bels landing. On being called upon by them to take oath
to the new order of things established at Athens, he replied
that he only took an oath once in his life, and, assisted by
the inhabitants of the island, he compelled the rebels to de-
part. They then proceeded to the Island of Thermic) to
liberate the 25 or 30 individuals banished from Athens and
confined in the island.

" The events at Syra were known at Athens at midnight
on the 13th, and the Governmentga garrison of Athena saotonce sent two compa-
nies of the already weakto the
Piraeus, where they embarked on board the Amalia. At
noon the Amalia came across the Karteria, with the rebels
on board, and, opening fire, compelled her to make for land.
The rebels landed close on the shores of Therniio, and the
troops on board the Amalia followed their example. A
fierce struggle ensued, in which Leonzakes, Moraitinis, and
various soldiers, were killed, The Karteria, with all the
pillaged money and arms, fell into the hands of the troops
of the Amalia. Among other spoil were six small sacks of
gold.
" The Amalia then made for Syra to show to the mer-
chants of that place the trophies made by the Royal troops.
The bodies of the slain, the wounded, and the prisoners,
wore displayed to public view on the desk of the steamer,
and 'the inhabitants of Syria went to gaze at them.
" The telegraph has been restored."
