AUGSBURG, SEPT. 15.—The Gazette Universelle
has received the two following letters on the

affairs of Greece. 'Their authenticity is guaran-
teed, but .as to the news they contain, it is ne-
cessary to wait for further information :
" TgIESTE, SEPT. 6.—We have news from the Morea up
to August 29, which are a little more favourable to the cause
of the Greeks.. They abandoned Corinth from their own
choice,* and devastated the country as far as Argos. The
Turks, commanded by Mahmud Ali Pacha, advanced as far as
Argolita, but were repulsbd by Colocotroni and Nicetas, on the
13th, 14th, and 17th of August, with the loss of 8000 man,
2000 horses, and 260 camels. They retreated towards Coriirth,
and were pursued by the Greeks. •
" SEPT. 7.—The following letter from a Greek senator,
written from Argos,. on the 20th 'of August, is in circulation
here:--" We succeeded on.the 15th, 10th, and 17th, in entire-
ly defeating the Turks near Argolita. At this moment 'the
heads of the Seraskier and Pacha Mabraud Ali Pacha; of Sa-
lonica, are presenting to the Senators charged with.,the interior
administration.-1- Three thousand prisoners are captured ; the.
remainder of the Turks are retiring towards Corinth to join
Chourschid Pacha. On the 18th, the Turks. began- a negocia-
tion for the surrender of Corinth, and evacuated the citadel to,
prove the sincerity of their pacific sentiments. -We are
.in-
debted to Colocotroni and Nicetas for the victory; .Who had de-
vastated the country as far as Argos. The Senate has given•
up all influence over military affairs,'and has acknowledged a
military dictatorship ; but several traitors have been beheaded.
Our fleet consisting of 60 vessels, with 30 fire ships, is onlhe
way to Patras ; 30 more vessels are expected from pezzia-.” §

Si'.NirsEaia~:tic ,` EP 13.—Gree* kionurussion,
ers, men of good education, who have studied-in
German Universities, have lately
,passed through
Frankfort with the intention of visiting the
various societies established for the assistance of
the Greeks, and suggesting to. them the most
,suitable measures to be taken. One of these
men was present at the taking of Tripolizza, re.
specting which some journals have represented
the conduct of the Greeks in stick odious colours.
lie affirmed, upon his bonour,.that it was not the
Greeks who broke the capitulation, but the per-
fidious Turks themselves, who, some time after
the Greeks entered, suddenly commenced a ter-
rible fire upon them from the houses, so:that 500
or 600 were killed in the streets, which naturally
excited the fury of the Greek soldiers to the
highest degree, so that they took sanguinary but
just vengeance. Besides the large .contributions
in money (in which latterly some persons have
joined) and in arms, many high-minded men have
lately come forward to dedicate their services to
the Greeks ; not actuated by an ignoble desire
of gain, but by the wish to assist in delivering
their Christian brethren from .the yoke of bar-
barians.

SEPT. 14.—Letters from ,the borders of the
Danube speak in the following manner of the
approaching Congress. It is generally agreed
that the meeting of the Sovereigns of Austria
and Prussia, which is to take place in the course
of September, of this year, to take such mea-
sures as the situation of affairs in Europe may de-
mand, was resolved on last year by the Sovereigns,
who met at the Congress of Laybach. Then the
affairs of Italy, and the definitive pacification of
the transalpine Peninsula, were the principal
matters discussed. They did not appear to re-
gard the insurrection, which has since broken
out in Turkey, as very important. The Porte,
it was thought, would easily succeed in reducing
to obedience his Christian subjects. All the
efforts of the Cabinets were directed to prevent
the Greek insurrection from disturbing the har-
mony which hitherto had subsisted among the
great Allied Powers ; and as Russia was parti-
cularly interested, the assurances which Alexan-
der had given at Laybach were sufficient to re-
assure all minds. It was therefore nearly resolv-
ed on that the affairs of Turkey should not be
interfered with, as long as this power respected
existing treaties.
As for the Iberian Peninsula, the moment ap-
peared very unfavourable to interfere with it.—
The approaching Congress was consequently
fixed at Florence. Its intention was particularly
to regulate the affairs of the interior of Italy.—
The Emperor Alexander consented the more
willingly to this arrangement, because he
had long had a desire to travel through the
garden of Europe, which he had never visited.
But, in the course of a year, things have
so changed, that the affairs of Italy are only
of secondary importance, and in place of
Florence, Verona has been chosen, that the
Congress may be nearer the centre of Europe.—
The deliberations of the future Congress may be
probably directed to general affairs and special
affairs. In the general deliberations, in which
only the five Great Powers of Europe will take
part, the state of Europe as a whole will be con-
sidered. The other deliberations will relate
particularly to Italy, and the Princes of the
Peninsula have been invited to take part in these
discussions, either personally or by their Pleni-
potentiaries.
As to general affairs, the 'impulsion appears
now to proceed from Vienna, or rather from
Prince Metternich, -whose political system is well
known. Its tendency is to maintain., invariably,
a state of peace among the five great Powers, and
consequently through the whole of Europe.
The Cabinet of St. James's has the same in-
terest in this respect, and forms the same wishes
as the Cabinet of Vienna; thus the most cordial
harmony reigns between them, which will cer-
tainly not be diminished by the sudden death of
the Marquis of Londonderry. The Cabinet of
Berlin has adopted the same system, and the pa-
cific sentiments of Alexander are manifest. Be-
sides, the state of the finances in all Europe makes
peace more desirable and more indispensable
than ever. It may, therefore, be foreseen,
that the result of the approaching Congress

• To abandon by their own choice a citadel which the Turks
maintained eight months, very much resembles treason.—(Note
of the Editor of the Journal des Dibats. )
j The presence of the Greek Senators at Argos, in the midst
of the armies of the Dictator, Colocotroni, appears rather an
improbable circumstance.
+ This is another voluntary evacuation which does notappear
very probable.
§, We believe from this letter, that some battles have been
fought since the Turks entered the Mores ; but in reading
these letters attentively, particularly that of the Senator, we
are persuaded that the situation of ,the Greeks is very distress-
ing, and principally on.account of their intestine dissensions.—.
