TUE GREEKS.

A STROS, AMU. :factions ar
reconciled, and the Greeks begin to act unani
tnously ; they are engaged in the revisal of the
organic law of Epidaurus, and in the discussion
of other mattersimportant.to the nation. Among
the propositions under cousideration, are two
very important ones, 'viz.-- " Whether those
whose native country is still subject to the
Turkish dominion, and those who are absent in
other parts of. Europe, are to be employed in
official situations, unless they have resided in the
liberated countries, the first for five, and the se-
cond for three years ?" The Turks are at this
moment near Zeituni, but the Greeks are not
at all dismayed. The Greek Government has
-appointed Captain Scourtis, a prudent and gal-
-Mat patriot, to the command of sixty Ilydriot
ships. It has also ordered the -Hydrlot •and
Psariot fleet to act against the Turkish, and the
Spezziot against that of Algiers and Alexandria.
'Lately, the eight Greek vessels, which were
.blockading Pares, being compelled to leave
,their station for a short time, and to sail for
Hydra, in order to obtain their arrears of
pay, the friends of the Turks at Zante availed
,themselves of the circumstance, and sent 15 ves-
sels loaded with provisions to Patras and the
,Gulf of Lepanto, the greatest part of which have,
however, been taken, and carried into Meso-
loughi.-,-Amongst the transactions
,f the Con-
. Avess, the following are 10 he noticed ,
DFcarx :—Whereas the -partial Governments, such as
,Gerteihr, Areopagi, Stc. have beenproved prejudicial to the
„public welfare, the National Congress decrees that all those
• Governments shall be dissolVed, and that all the provinces of
them" shall be dependent on the National Congress.
" ItmsoLtyrtoxs :-1. The Government of Greece is cote.
- posed of two parts, the Deliberative and the Executive, accord.
in to the organic law of Epidaurus. The. National Congress
will appoint a Committee to perfect this law ; but funda-
mental principles will be considered to be unalterabl7, and it
will retain its primitive name of the'Law of Epidaurus. -
" 2. Whereas the command of the land and sea forces be•
longs only to the Government, the title of General in Chief
either of Greece generally, or of the Peleponnesus, of the Dist
or West Greece, of Crete, or other plaCes particularly, ix
,compatible with the nature of the Government, and will never
be allowed except in the case of an expedition.
",3. Whereas the situation of Greece makes military disei-
pline.hidispensable, the Commanders of its land and sea forces
are required to select a military and naval code from those of
civilised ftroPC.
"4. The Niter-office will be composed of three military
Officers, one from the Greek Continent, one from the Pelo-
,ponnesus, and one from New Sparta (Maims). The Navy.
lloard will, likewise, consist of three 'Members, a liydriot, a
Spezziot, and a Psariot." •
The oath of the Members of the National Congress is this
" I swear, in the name of God and of my.. Country, true
patriotism, sincere concord, and perfect disinterestedness."
