ATHENS, Dec. 30, 1840.

A considerable number of visitors are sojourning here at
present. and among them there are no less than nine clergy-
men of the Church of England. The Crown Prince of Be-
varia, Maximilian, arrived here yesterday in an Austrian
steamer from Corfu. The Marquis and Marchioness of
Londonderry are expected here this afternoon from Patras,
Delphi, Corinth, &c.
In consequence of much publicity having been given by
the English and Continental Newspapers to the recent
horrible acts of torture and cruelty practised by the police
of Athens, sanctioned, as it would appear, by the King,
some attempt at explanation has been put toi th by an
Athenian Journal in the interest of the Court, but not one
of the chareei Iras been refuted. It is to be hoped that
these disgraceful outrages will be discontinued, or, if not,
that the European Powers, who placed a Bavarian dynasty
on the Throne of Greece, will insist on such truly mon.
strous outrages being abolished.
The City of Dublin steam-boat has been placed upon
the station between 'Mita, the lonien Islands, and Greece,
and has proved totally unfit, in every respect, for the work,
so much so that she will now have to lay up at Malta a
second time, to make good defects, and it is notorious that
not only is there a want of power in the engines, but that
the accommodation for passengers is excessively bad; in
short, just what might be expected from a coasting steamer
destined to carry pigs and their attendants. It is incom-
prehensible how those who act on behalf of the London
Post-office authorities can permit the contractors to em-
ploy such incompetent vessels. The sum paid by the
Post-office to the steam company is very large, and should
at least entitle the plebe, whose money it is, to have the
service properly and punctu oily performed.
