GERMAN PAPERS,

(From the Algemeine Zeitung of Sept. 2.)
TRIESTE, AUG. 24.
Letters from Corfu of the .11th of August, and
from Zante of the 6th, which perfectly agree
with each other, state, that on the 21st July
:fqd of August), the second attempt to carry
Missolonghi by storm was made by Itedschid
.Pacha, on the land side, and by the Captain
Pacha.on the sea side. The Greek reports esti. ,
mate the force of the Turks that made the attack
by land at 30,000 men, and that on the sea side
at 4,000 men, who approached in 104 boats and
rafts. The garrison, however,
_repulsed every
attack, and Miaulis, who had hastened -to the
spot with a Greek squadron, is stated -to have
burnt, during the attack, a 'Turkish frigate andtwo brigs, ,and to have taken a brig and nine
boats, full of troops. The Greeks estimate the
loss of the Turks at 9,000 men.
According to the same accounts, the Captain
Packs, after these events, had retired to Patras,
and seems since to have entirely left the coasts
of Western Greece, since,. according to letters
from Zante of the 6th August, it is asserted that
he bad been seen far from that- island steering
southwards.
Before the Turks attempted the second assault
the agents of an European Power endeavoured to
persuade the inhabitants of Missolonghi to sur-
render,- assuring them that the insurrection was
entirely put down in -the Morea. The Greeks,
however,. gave no credit to this assurrance, but
declared that they were resolved either to con-
quer or die. The schooner on board which these
European agents were then withdrew from the
harbour to the roads, -and was witness to the
defeat of the Turks.

COLOGNE, AUG. 30.
• The Chamber of Commerce of this city pub-
lished, a few days ago, the- prospectus of a
Prussian-Rhenish Steam-pocket Company, which
is remarkable, as it spews that the merchants of
the ancient Colonies, far from remaining behind
in the enterprising spirit of •the age, have it in
view again to place it in the rank of a Hanseatic
city, which it had two centuries .a ago, which
they will be able to do as soon as the Rhenish
West India Company is fully developed, ac-
cording to the plan laid down, and when
the Dutch sea-ports, which are now barred,
as it
.we're, shall be at least free for the ex-
portation and importation of goods, of which
there are now some hopes. The amount of
the capital is at present limited to -10,000
rix-dollars, as this sum appears sufficient for a
beginning. It is divided• into 2.00 shares of 200

dollars each.
On the Ist of September a steam-boat was to
begin to ply between Cologne and Coblentz, for
the conveyance of travellers ; but as it is first of
all to convey His Majesty the King of Prussia
from Coblentz to Antwerp and Brussels, it will
not begin its regular voyage between Coblentz
and Cologne till some time afterwards.
A lt;iter from Mayence of the `_'4th of August
says, " in consequence of the rainy,weather the
price of corn has fallen a little,-both here and in
Holland. But it is to be expected that the corn
of this year's crop, which is remarkably good,
will soon rise again, especially as the crop of all
substitutes for bread has, proved very indifferent.
The corn of last year's harvest weighs 160 pounds
the great measure (malter), while this year's corn
weighs above 190 pounds, and gives one third
less of bran. All the corn of this year seems
also to be very fit for keeping, and.consequent)y
adapted to speculation."

Since this succour had been given, and after the
loss of the besiegers, the Seraskier has raised the
siege. This news, however, needs confirmation.
