severe action at Forgi, on the 19th April, gainer
by the Egyptians, the island Sphaggia taken by
Storm on the Bth,May, and old Navarin on .the
11th (in which three occasions the insurgents
lost at least 2000 men killed, wounded, and
Prisoners)s and Nayarit) being reduced to
extremity by the fire, both of the land
forces and of the ships of war, which
had entered the harbour, the garrison re-
solved, on the 18th May to capitulate. The ca-
pitulation was concluded in the camp before
Modon, in the presence of Major Bandeira and
the Captain of the French schooner D'Ama-
ranthe. The garrison of 1,100 men obtained

Permission to depart, artil-

conveyed on board English and Austrian mer-

with the bayonet, to which the Greeks are unac-

which only decisive advantages on their side can
efface. They have lost before Navarin part of
their best troops, and some of their most distin-
guished officers ; for instance, Hqdschi Christo,
son of Pietro Bey, the Hydriot Vice-Admiral
~11isamados, &c. Santa Rosa, who directed the
efence, was killed in the storming of
,Phaggia. Mavrocordato, who had been sent

Progress of the seige, was in Sphaggia when it
was attacked on the swi 9th May, and escaped by
