A letter from Saint Thomas's, dated 'the 29th

'-blockade, and had stationed a force off the port
to cause the blockade to be respected.

Russia would not leave St. Petersburgh till the
21st instant ; and that this journey, in which
the Empresses andthe Grand Du chessof Weimar
were to acCompany.ltis Imperial Majesty, has no
military. object.
The Austrian Observer says not a syllable on
the great question of peace or war, and the
articles on that subjeCt (See VIENNA under the
head of FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE) have been fur-
nished by Bankers who have lent enormous sums
to the different Governments, and who have the
greatest interest in the preservation of Peace.—

" ROME, MA-y 11.—The Neapolitan squadron
and the Austrian flotilla are at this moment
-cruising along the coasts of Calabria and Sicily.
VIENNA, MAY 14.—The following are ex-
tracts of letters from Constantinople, dated
April 25 :
" It is stated that within the last two days, the,indefatigable
zeal of M. de Lut2owhas been crowned with success—that the
Porte has promised promptly to evacuate Moldavia and Wa-
lachia, which are to have for the present a Provisional Govern-
ment, and to observe strictly the Treaties concluded with Ens-
- sia. It is added, that the necessary orders for the evacuation
have been sent off, and that the Representatives of those Pro-
vinces, who have arrived here, are to have an audience imme-
Ziately of Halib Effendi. 'lf these two principal points are
really arranged; it may be hoped that a Russian Ambassador
will soon arrive, and that the other difficulties will be soon got
over.
" Our hopes of peace have augmented within the last ten
days; the Porte has changed its tone, and begun to flinch. It
is said that the Principalities will be evacuated.
" It is again-believed that the peace with Russia will not be
broken. It is said at Pera, but this news wants confirmation,
that the Reis Effendi has declared verbally to the Austrian and
English Ministers, that the Grand Seignior was 'not so much
discontented but lie would resume the consideration of the.
propositions of those Courts, and that an answer might be
promptly expected, satisfying them of the mildness, wisdom,
and favour of the Grand Seignior. -What appears to give some
probability to this news is, that the Boyards who have arrived
here from Walachia and Moldavia have been well- received ;
they are under surveillance, but they are well ,treated. It
should be recollected, however, that the Turks began by treat-
ing Ali Pacha well after his capitulation. There have been
sanguinary scenes at Smyrna in consequence of the conquest of,
Scio.
" Thee Capitan Pacha collected. at Tsehesme the Asiatics
assembled there, and disembarked at Scio the 14th April. The'
Greeks assaulted the citadel, and then 'opposed a great re-
sistance, but they were compelled to yield to numbers, and
about 30,000 Turks seized,the whole Island, and put all to fire
and sword. The accounts from thence are terrible, and the
dreadful scenes of Yvali bear, it is said, but a faint resem-
blance to the fate which this island, so rich and so flourishing,
has experienced. On the 20th April the massacre still con-
, tinned, women a.id children even were not spared; scarcely
could the Capitan Paella save in the castle a few hundreds of
the unfortunate inhabitants. The Reis Effendi has published
a statement of this victory, in which the loss of the Turks is
estimated at 4,000. It is impossible to describe the consterna-
tion of ,the Greek merchants at Constantinople, there being
- scarcely a family who had not relations at. Scio."
( Extract of h private Letter.)—" A letter from Constanti-
nople of the 26th of April states, that the Reis. Effendi had at
length transmitted a written answer to the Austrian and Eng.
11th Ministers but that the answer was in substance nothing
but a copy of the note of the 28th of February, with-Some mo-
difications. It is added, that the Porte had refused to evacuate
Wallachia and Moldavia before the Greek insurrection should
be put down. Salonica was still menaced by the Greeks. A.
courier, who left Aleppo the 14th of April, had brought intel-
ligence that the Schell of Persia and his sons were marching
~upon Bagdad with a numerous army."
NUREMBERG, MAY 17.—The last accounts
from Russia speak of a grand Military Council
which was to be held at Mohilow.—Letters from

Trieste state, that the citadel of Xthens had
-•surrendered to the Greeks by capitulation; the

.garrison were allowed to embark. The same
.-sadvices speak of the approaching siege of Salo-
nica, to the environs of which four Greek Chiefs
had penetrated.
ODESSA, MAY 2.—According to letters from
Petersburgb.of the • 26th April, M. de Katos
chin, tire Precursor•' of M. de Tatischeff, had
brought intelligence from Vienna that the Al-
lied ,Powers had.given the Porte, with the con
sent.of Russia, to the end of this month, to eva-
cuate Moldavia and Wallachia, declaring at the
- same time that &the Principalities were not eva-
cuated before that period', the Russian armies
-would. enter in great force. •
TRIETE, MAY 16.—A letter from „ItAliens,

',dated in the middle of April, states, that it is the
determination of all the Greek Chiefs to gain
time, and to make a mountain warfare,,lin imita-
tion of that cif ,Spain, which will be much favour-
ed by the nature of the localities. .
It has also been determined to send ififthe dif-
.

CONSTANTI.NOPLE,APRiL 2.5.-'---The enterprise•
of the Greeks againSt the island of Scio has come
to a melancholy conclusion sooner than was ex-
pected. The authors of, it have received their
merited recompense ; the misfortune is, that a
population of above 100,000 souls, who would
never have revolted of their own accord against
a government .by.which they. were treated with
especial favour, has been led by them to ruin ;
and an island, distinguished beyond all those in
the ./Egean sea by cultivation, industry, and
riches, 'is given up to misery and desolation.—.-
Though we have no details, and the Government
has published nothing respecting the expedition,
there seems no doubt of the.fact that the Capitan
Pacha has in a few days- totally defeated the
Greeks (chiefly Samians) who had landed on Scio,
and reduced the iithabitants to submission. Ac-
cording to the accounts we have received, he con-
veyed to Scio the troops assembled at Tschesme,
just at the time that the insurgents were on the
point of storming the citadel. As soon as the
Captains of the ships of Ipsaraand Hydra, which
had 'conveyed the troops to the insurgents, .per-
ceived the Turkish fleet, they cut their cables,
left their Anchors behind, and fled precipitately.
It that seven of these ships fell into the
hands of -the Turks. After the Capitan Pacha
had landed his 'troops, he first tried means of con-
ciliation; he sent several flags of truce, partly.
to the officers of the Greeks 4 partly to the Ma-
gistrates of the districts'; cries of rebellion, ac-
companied by cannon-shots, were the only answer
he received. A murderous _conflict began ; the
insurgents were driven from one strong position,
from one battery to another,-,and were pursued
with unabated fury into the streets of the town.
The massacre is not to be described ; the loss of
the Turks in killed and severely wounded is
stated at 5,000 men : hence we may infer how
great the loss of the-vanquished- must have been.
The Catholic inhabitants of the island., who here,
• as well as in the other revolted islands, had taken
no part in the insurrection, were protected,
partly: by the Governor; Vehid Pacha, partly by
the Foreign Consuls, who did not experience any
insult whateVer.

We look forward with real apprehension to
the further accounts of these events. It may be
easily calculated what bad consequences will
have for Smyrna, Scala Nuova, Samos, &c. But
even in itself the catastrophe of Scio is one of the
most lamentable and fatal, and will, besides, be
followed by the ruin of a great, number of French,
Italian, German, and English merchants, at Con.
stantinople and Smyrna, who had very extensive
mercantile connections with the Sciotes.

Private accounts say that the High Admiral
has ;One to, Samos, and has sent a division of his
fleet against Ispara.
Great
,alarm presided at Salonichi at the be=
ginning of this month, because a Captain Dia-
mandi, -who had assembled several thousand men
in Thessaly, was advancing from Tirhala against
the city, and with the help of some vessels of
the insurgents stationed in the Gulf of Salonichi,
hoped to strike a decisive blow. Yesterday,
however, we learnt that Irulobut Mehemed
Pacha has attacked him with considerable force,
has driven him back and dispersed his troops,
and taken part of his cannon and ammunition.
Many standards and other trophies
.have been
brought to Constantinople, -and seven of the re-
bels publicly beheaded. On the .17th of this
month, Stawraki Aristarchi, the temporary Dra-
goMan of the Porte, was dismissed, and exiled to
8011. His place was. given • tO: Mussulman,
which might
,be considered as .something extra-
ordinary, were it not•explained- by the fact, that

Greek, of a .well-known family in Corfu, who
apostatised to MahometaniSm
.in his early-youth,

FRANKFORT, MAY o.—The Frankfort Ger-
man`Paper of this day has a private letter from
Constantinople, dated 25th April„ which says,—
" We continue to enjoy here perfect. tranquillity.
For these ten days past our hopes of peace have
increased. 'The Porte has changed its tone and
mode of proceeding towards Russia , it begins to
be mote compliant. It is affirmed that the Prin-
cipalities will be evacuated. Heaven grant it !"
