[OFFICIAL. INTELLIGENCE.]
(EXTRACT FROM TOE GREEK CHRONICLE or MIM-
I.°Nom, OF AEFTEMBER 23.)
" For the last few days eve have been con-
stantly receiving Intelligence from all quarters respecting a most
important victory obtained by our fleet over the two united
fleets of the enemy. The only, official news, however, which
we have is the following extract from a letter of the Government
to the Governor of Western Greece, A. Alavrocortlato. We
hope, however, to receive, without delay, other official intelli-
gence of importance, " since our fleet is every where to be seen
near the enemy, and following all his movements.

EXTRACT FROM A I.I:TTEit OF THE VENERABLE EXDCII.
TIVE BODY, TO A. STAVROCOILDATO, GOVERNOR-GENE-
RAL OF WESTERN GREECE, DATED SEPT. 6.
" Fresh and illustrious exploits gladden our people. On the
29th of last month an ably-contested naval engagement took
place near Cos and Sandia, and after severe losses on the partof
men, belonging to the fire.ships, destroyed one frigate of Tri-
poli, with nine hundred enemies on board, sad one brig, with
three hundred.
The Captain of the frigate, who was the corn.
mender of the naval division of Tripoli, desiring to save him.
self by flight, fell into the hands of the Greeks, together with
a !Millbrae (Captain of one thousand men) of Alahomet Ali,
and they are still in their power. The circumstances, of this
naval engagement are worthy of observation ; the more so, as
the enemy had the advantak,e In many respects, namely, from
the superior number and force of his vessels, and from the
preparations which he had been making, and even the wind
itself favoured him, and yet, notwithstanding all these advan.
tages, he not only could not injure us, but even could not
escape from the fury of our seamen. It is now apparent, from
the fear that has seized on the Turks, they are aware that it
avails them nothing, if even they are in full sail, when they are
seen by the Greek vessels. If our vessels only obtain the am.
munition required, they will effect wonders."
Extract or a letter front Malta, dated Oct. 9 i--" The Greek
Government issued a proclamation on the 28th of August,
commanding all Greek corsairs to apply for letters of marque,
and to he particularly careful not to molest vessels bearing
European flags, without a just motive, under pain of the moat
rigorous punishment that the laws could inflict.
A letter from Zante. of the 29th September, (N.S.), says as
follows The old Varvaki, an Ipsariot, 81 years of age, left
Zante in a vessel of his own, for Napoli di Romania. He Is
gone to request the Government of Greece to cede to him the
fortresa of Navaiino, in order to receive there all the unfortu.
Point, and to permit him to build there new
ceonuauxiation. He was going first to Napoli
dhnioatiesfarvoforiisliiaesth, toof
t
r 'I./isk the different Ipsariot families, who have
taken refuge there. He has with him a considerable sum of

money subscribed by the Greeks who are in Russia, to otter it
to the Greek Government, together with all his own property.
—At Napoli di Romania, a private Society has established an
hospital for 3 years. Many Gentlemen have subscribed volun-
tary annual contributions of 50, 100, and 200 Spanish dollars.
Varvaki has inscribed his name for 1,000 dollars annually ; this
is to last till the Greek Government shall no longer need their
assistance."

The same letter Confirms-the visit of Sir F. Adam to Napoli
di Romania, and states that he himself brought the news of the
defeat of the two Turkish fleets, which took place at Cos, on
the 10th of September, when the Africaine, the finest Egyptian
vessel, was destroyed, with a brig of Tunis and many other
vessels sunk, and many transports of different nations taken.—
The Greeks took four persons of high rank prisoners, Oaong
whom was the son of the Viceroy of Egypt, and the famous
Gibraltar. On the 11th and 10th of September, two other naval
engagements took place, anti the result of both was highly
favourable to the Greeks.

On the 28th of September, arrived at Zante an Austrian
vessel, Captain Stavo, from Constantinople, Odessa, and
Syra, which latter place it had left four days before. At Syra
he saw a Greek vessel which brought dispatches, stating that
the remainder of the Turkish fleet sailed towards Samos, but
in their way they were met and again beaten by the Greek
fleet, which burnt three other frigates or corvettes, and took se-
veral other vessels. The confirmation of this news was expected
from Napoli di Romania.
On the 19th of September a courier arrived at Zante, from
Napoli di Romania, who had been sent to the Government by
the venerable anti worthy Varvaki, who brought the confirma-
tion of part of the above news.
ZsNTE, OCT. I.—The Stratarch Gouras, who commanded
at Athens, haring passed from thence into the Isle of Negro-
pont or Eubrea„ has defeated the Turks there, and taken many
prisoners of both sexes, among whom are two Paellas.
In Thessaly also the Greeks have defeated the army of Der-
visch Pacha, and taken two Pachas prisoner, besides a great
number of soldiers.

In Epirus the Greek army is encamped at Bonila, about a
league and a halt' distant from Janina. The inhabitants of
Mount Pindus and the neighbouring cantons, who hitherto re-
mained quiet, have rose up in arms to support the cause of
their country. It is very probable that the :Sabots have en-
tered among the mountains. Arta, after being half burnt, has
fallen into the power of the Christians. Never has Turkey
met with similar disasters. In a few days surprising things
will come to light.
