PARIS, A ua. 13.—if 13uonapirte's testament is
.real, as stated by the English newspapers, it will
•be sufficient to Tender his memory odious. A low
vindictive spirit prevails in it—a harsh tone, a
•avant of respect for every thing sacred, of all ele-
-vation of character, and even of a moral sense.
We are puzzled to conceive how so sensible a man
ias linonaparte could have drawn up such a docu-
•ment, de4tined naturally to be madepuhlic. If

it ws written by him, it is a proof bow mach'
~-,-ireisfortunes can debase some men, and render
them furious, however great may be their itttel-
lectual superiority. Whet a contrast between
this testament and that of Louis XVI. It is the
calmness of heaven and the madness of hell.

CONSTANTINOPLE, 3ur.Y 12.—intrigues are at
,present very numerous, and torrents of blood will
yet he shed, If the unfortunate Greeks should
tie exterminated, they will owe their fall to the
Christians of Europe. They transported the
troops of the Captain Pacha, and their flags
floated in the midstof his fleet. Christians were
the negociators between him and those Albanians
who sold Ipsara. The Christians are how selling
,themselves and their vessels to the Pacha of
Egypt. The policy of Europe is delivering up
tin Greeks to their Musselmen executioners.

Sig VIINA, Jtrt,Y 7•—(Private Letter.)-1 send you in haste
an ac:•:%tnt, ttlas ! tro true, of the catastrophe of Ipsara.
Publish it-in the Newspapers, that the universe may learn
the misfortunes and the glory of Greece. Ipsara is no more;
all have perished. The following is the account given by an
eyo-witness, as he told me the story, mingling his recital with

salts. On July 6, in the evening, the Captain of an American
verged appeared at the Chanceaerie at Smyrna, who declared the
following was the truth 1---" On July :3, at three o'eloi:k in the
looming, the fleet of the Captain Paella, composed of line or
Lnttle ships and frileatei, appeared off the harbour of Ipssita,
while the transports; among which were several vessel* under
foreign colours, steered for the north`part of the island, to the
anchorage called Amoudia. This post was defended by four
batteries, confided to the care of a battalion of Albanian coerce-
frames, called 'Tabider or coast guards. The Turks immediately
began, to disembark, while the Albanians fired ones so as to do
nu injury, and then ran away. part of them going over to the
Turks, and a few saving themselves by retreating towards
.Ipaars. The Osmanlis then landed without tiny obstacle, and
they disembarked more than twenty thousand Asiatics, who
..took possession of the heights that command the island, and
-hoisted the Turkish flag. The Ipsariota immediately perceived
that they were betrayed. At the same moment the Turks
. contmenced their attack, and the Christians having united, an
obstinate context ensued, which lasted till the next day, Sun-
day, July 4. The ipsuriuts then resolved to bury themselves
under the ruins of their country. They took away the rudders
of their vessels, and took means to prevent any body escaping
by means of them. The Captain Paella, informed of this,
' caused more troops to advance. This was five o'clock in the
afternoon. The Ipsariots, worn out with fatigue, foreseeing
that they must be conquered, resolved to perish in a manner
worthy of their name and character as freemen. Collecting.all
the old men, women, and children, they led them all to Fort
• St. Nicholas there waiting till they were surrounded by the
enemy's army. raising the standard of the Cross in.the air, they
cried with a loud voice, Long live Greece I Death 'to the
Turks !' And set fire to a mine and a large magazine of powder.
!risers is widow( if of her heroic population, and the Cross has
been supplanted by the Crescent.
