tia.an of Russia ; and it is strongly suspected that'
he is acting at this moment under the influence of
that Power. It may, therefore, be very reason.
ably supposed, that he is not only a sturdy advo-
cate for the Russian scheme of pacification, but
that he has actually submitted it to Ibrahim
l'acha, as the basis of a reconciliation between
his countrymen and their former masters. Prince
Ipsilanti also belongs to this party ; and as both
hold principal commands at this time in the Morea,
it is not very unlikely that they use their present
power to further, as circumstapces may allow, the
views of the Russian Government. Besides,both
of them hate the Provisional Government, in con-
sequence of past injuries or neglect ; and more-
over dislike popular. institutions, in imitation of
the high authority under which they are acting.
There are, however,and ever will be, two power-
ful impediments, to the success of this plan.
The first is the decided disinclination of the.
Porte, who, if it had no other abjection,
would regard it with invincible •distrust, as
an emanation of European policy, which, in
the Turkish vocabulary, means the quintessence
of intrigue and perfidy. The next obstacle is
the dislike of the great body of the Greeks,
who would probably endure any privations and
risks attendant on a state of hostilities, rather than
submit again to the hateful yoke of the Turks,
however light it might be rendered in its new con-
struction. Therefore this Russian scheme, how-
ever plausible, or however well meant, will never
have many partizans amongst the two belligerents ;
and it is already proved, almost to demonstration,
that this war presents to the Greeks only the al-
ternative of absolute independence, or uncon-
ditional submission.

Frankfort Papers arrived yesterday to the 24th
inst. Art article dated Constantinople, the 23d
nit., states that no authentic accounts had been
received from the Morea since Ibrahim Pitches
retreat to the coast, at least none had been made
public. Several absurd reports are noticed re-
specting what is called the Moldavian plan, which
the Viceroy of Egypt is said to have recom-
mended the Sultan to adopt, as the only course
to extricate himself from the labyrinth of the
Greek insurrection. It is pretetsded that Colo-
cotroni is no stranger to this measure, and that
he approves of it. The whole story, we have no
doubt, is the fabrication of some German ro-
mance writer. The Oriental Spectator denies
that the insurrection of Candla is either general
or formidable. According to that veracious
Journal, a rabble of 5 or 600 men were landed
from Napoli di Romania at Caraboussa, an islet
about three quarters of a league from the coast
opposite Kissamo, and having surprised a small
fort, garrisoned by a few Turks, they endeavour-
ed to stir up the islanders to revolt, but the at-
tempt, we are told, wholly failed of success. It
is singular, however, that it does not appear that
any steps had been taken by the Turkish autho-
rities to seize this handful of rebels. They rely,'
it seems, upon the return of the Egyptian fleet
for the restoration of order. Why, if they can,
do they not restore it themselves ?

[MORNING POST.]
The French Papers which have arrived since
our last, have brought an article from Smyrna,
dated Sept. ISth, which, if true, would show that
the Austrian Naval Commanders in the Levant
had either not received the new orders said to
have been transmitted to them from Vienna, or
at least had not begun to act upon them. This
article states that Col. Accourti had arrived in
the Bay of
,Smyrna with five Mystics and a.pira-
tical boat which he had taken at Miconi,: after
sinking another, and that he kept the Captains of
those Mystics in irons on board his own ship. The
Journal des Debats justly observes upon this state-
ment—" the Austrian Commander is thus at once
both an absolute judge, and the executioner of his
own judgments" To this it may be added, that the
Greek mystics are national vessels, and not to be
confounded with pirates. Indeed the Austrian ac-
count itself marks the difference, and makes a
distinction between them.. They have been cap-
tured therefore,and their Captains have been load-
ed with irons, merely because they cruized against
those Austrian vessels whose violation of neutra-
lity is admitted even by the Cabinet of Vienna !
Who best deserves punishment in this flagrant case?
The Journal des Dr"bats also contains an extract
from a new letter addressed by General Roche
to the Parisian Committee. It is dated
.Septem-
ber 17th, and describes the reception of Commo-
dore Rogers and the American squadron by the
Greek Government at Napoli di Romania. The
,squadron consisted of the North Carolina, 104,
the Constitution frigate, and of two large cor-
vettes. The President and Vice-President of the
Senate, with several Senators, returned the visit
of the Commodore en board his ship, where he
gave them a splendid fete. On quitting Napoli
-the Americans fired a salute of 17 guns, and
hoisted the Greek flag. The batteries answered
'by an equal number of guns. An American Con-
-6111 was expected to reside at Napoli, and •a cor-
-vette was to remain stationed in the Levant.
