heavily at last quotations. Beans and Pease have no further

prices remain as last stated.

[BRITISH PRESS.]
The reports which have reached this country
through France and Germany, relative to' a sig-
osil victory gained by the Greeks over the coin.
tined fleets of Turkey and Egypt, were confirm-
ed, yesterday, by the receipt of official dis-
patches from Greece. We are not able this
morning to lay before our readers more than the
substance of these dispatches. We understand
that the Greek fleet fell in with the Alahometen
armament near Bodruni, and that a desperate en-
gagement ensued, which terminated in the de-
struction of 30 vessels, and seven large ships of
war, belonging to the combined fleet, and in the
capture of upwards of 30 more. The latter were
.mostly neutrals, and we are told, that after the
TUrkish stores, contraband ofwar, had been taken
.out of them, the vessels were allowed to depart
freely. We are also mach gratified to learn, that
the misunderstanding between the Anglo-
lonian Government and the Greeks has been
eemuved. Sir Frederick Adam, it was said,
hiid proceeded to Misioloughi in person, and had
there obtained a satisfactory explanation of the
iistentions of the Greek Government, from whom
II a immediate revocation of the offensive procla-
',nation was expected. We cannot well express
how much satisfaction we feel at this happy ar-
rangement, which, by the way, is a complete an-
swer to all the scandalous imputations cast upon
the King's Ministers, with reference to the just
ind salutary promptitude of the ietaliatory mea-
sure. We have seen letters from Trieste, dated
the 20th of September, which agree with these
accounts in every particular. We congratu-
late every friend to the struggling Greeks on the
whole of this intelligence, which is as favourable as
their warmest wishes could desire. From an
article from the A 'lgen:eine Zeilung, it appears
that the insincerity of the Viceroy of Egypt had
roused the indignation of the Porte, who, it was
expected, would denounce him as an enemy.—
Tbere wants but this pretence to induce Mehemet
Ali to follow the example of the Greeks, and
declare himself independent. We may look for-
Ward to every arrival from the Levant for this
final aggievation of the Sultan's difficulties. The
revolt of Egypt would be the signal for the de.
fection of almost every Pacha far enough removed
frein Constantinople to give him a reasonable
chance of success in his rebellion.

[MORNING POST.]
An Express brought us last night French
Papers to the 18th inst. and the Etoile of Mon-
day. The only intelligence which they contain
is from Greece, and its nature is still more grati-
fying than the last : for it announces that the
Egyptain fleet had been so roughly handled as
no longer to be able to keep the sea before the
Greeks. According to some the accounts (and
they all corroborate each other as to the fact of
a great defeat experienced by that Expedition)
it. had lost a cut down (rest)) ship of the line, two
frigmes, three corvettes, and five brigs, which
had been burned during the action, and three
corvettes, six brigs, forty gun-boats, and fifty
transportS, belonging to different nations taken
by the victorious Miaulis and his heroic
companions. The rest had fled in various
directions, some back to Alexandria, and
others for refuge to the harbours still pos-
sessed by the Turks in the island of Carona. It
is even added, that on the 15th of September the
Greeks had brought to Napoli di Romania a
Torhish frigate, on board of which were the
treasures of the army of Mehemet Ali and his son
Ibrahim, who had personally fallen into the
hands of those whom he had come to reduce and
to destroy ! Besides this, the Captain Pacha was
reported to have died of grief at the result of
thircampaign ; though it is more likely that the
boW-string had a greater hand than grief in put-
ting art untimely end to his unfortunate career.—
An article from Zante, dated the 17th ultimo, as-
serts that "Sir Frederick Adam, desirous of ex-
plaining and removing the misunderstandings oc-
casioned by the measure which he had adopted
agairist the Grecian navy, as a reprisal for those
ordered by the Greek Government, had repaired
in ;person to Nauplia." Ile is stated to have
'Well'disposed to do homage to the noble
character of the Ilellenes, and it was expected
11;o:he' would be received with due honours, and
thirthe existing difference would be settled in a
manner eonsistent"with the interests of both coun.
Ides. The Journal des Debott adds its good
wishes to the same effect, and the general impres.
slot,' yesterday seemed to be that an amicable and
satisfactory arrangement had been effected.

• [MORNING CHRONICLE.)
The accounts from all quarters agree in re-
presenting the Greeks to have gained a victory
over the Egyptian fleet. In our extracts from
Ile, Paris. Papers of Sunday will be foetid a re-
riety of details on the subject. The Courier
krkincais' contains an article from Amsterdam,
attributing to Sir F. Adam, subsequently to his
Prochtraation, conduct of a very hostile nature
t 6 the Greeks. We have reason to believe that
au account given in the Journal des Dc%bals, in a
letter from Zatite, is more correct. It agrees
with what' is stated in letters received here.
'Wm are sorry to see an attempt, in a conununi.
sation from the lonian Islands, in the Journal
de; D4bia,v, to detract from the merits of Colonel
Stanhope's exertions. -Why should it lie made
a matter of accusation against him,, that •he was
anxious to direct the Greeks ? Was he not emi-
nentji qualified to direct them in many essential
branches of military service ? Jealousy seems
to be thelin OWL ernst Vasil), besets the Greeks;
and they ought to be an'their guard against it.

Haiti TIMEg.I
Vie preiont tho new project of a loan, which
Ferdinand—tlie worthy Ferdinand—has endea,
vaured.to negotiate in France ; hut the attempt
hortgtiin fttileel. `Phe terms were such as one
tictiotiriglit`tempt cupidity; but one tun,
dition,. says the writer of- the letter, was want-
ing-""`" the honourable fulfilment of former con-

tracts.'► Now this is to a certain degree, or ra.
they in a certain sense, true ; and in a certain
sense false. If the writer supposes thgt the
money lenders of this or any other capital will not
lend their money except to an honourable many
and for honourable purposes, he is grievously mis-
taken. 'Were Ferdinand that dark mysterious
personage himself, whom he so much resembles
in every thing but abilities, and were the
enterprise in which he was engaged such as would
even make the 44 dark mysterious personage"
ashamed of his iniquity, he would still find no
difficulty in raising money for the accomplish-
ment of his object, provided his interest was ex-
orbitant, his funds sure, and his credit good.--
It is the want of these two last ingredients in the
composition of every project for a new loan, that
makes them all fail. Our opinion is, that his
Catholic Majesty will be able to raise no more
money by loan ; but the foundation of that opi-
nion is, that he can give no security, and finds no
funds for the payment of the interest.

A rumour is revived, which we noticed some
time ago, that it is the intention of Government
to withdraw the pittance which it allows to the
Spanish Patriots who escaped to England when
their country was subjugated by the French.
We think such a measure would be cruel, and not
in conformity with the general conduct of the
British nation towards the distressed. If it could
be shown that occasions sprung up in which they
might serve their country, and which they ne-
glected, then we should say, force them into action
by withdrawing their pensions : but if the same
cause which first drove them from Spain still exists
in full vigour, we cannot see why the relief which
was once granted should be now withdrawn. If
their conduct and circumstances remain the same
why should we change ? Do we wish them to
die of want in our streets ? Or would we con-
sign them to the hands of the executioner on their
native shores ? Perhaps the holy Allies are dis-
satisfied that men who have once aspired after
freedom, and attempted to impose a Constitu-
tional Government on the acceptance of a des-
potic Sovereign, should be suffered to live any
where. But if so, they cannot, surely, find
partners in such a feeling in any class of the Bri-
tish people. We must still hope, therefore, that
the rumour is unfounded.—(ibid.)
