CoNsTk.kr WOPLE, Jtkiq 24.—During more than a
'month pait„ our ci'ty'llat betn SNo itihtienceng of blotdp and'
barbarous atrocities, of which no idea can be formed in the
happy coantry you inhabit. The most horrible are, in the
first place, the drownings, which have been daily repeated
during the last fortnight. Men and women are conveyed on
board the vessels before Scutari, where they are tied in half
dozens, hand 'and foot, and thrown into the sea; this being
done when the wind is in a southerly direction, the bodies
of these ill-fated, victims are cast on shore before Constan-
tinople. The Turks then assemble on the beach, anti, with
savage ferocity, fire, with pistols, at the inanimate remains, and
cut them in pieces, which they throw to the dogs. They are par-
ticularly rancourous against the inhabitants of the Mama; the
populace seize every native of this provihce whom they can
discover, and if he has not sufficient money about him to prove
that he is not a Morean, his throat is instantly cut. But the
most horrible scenes were those which took place after the
defeat of the Turkish fleet in the Archipelago. On the wrecks
reaching the coast, a new massacre commenced, and the
drownings were doubled. It is impossible to describe to you
our state. Every day we witness horrors at which human na-
ture shudders. History offers no example of such multiplied
barbarities, perpetrated with so much sang froid upon defence-
less and peaceable beings.—A new fleet is actively preparing
here. The seamen are, in general, composed of the Greek
shoe-makers of the Archipelago, who are forced to go on board;
but if this fleet should sail, it will only serve to increase the na-
val forces of the Greeks. '

" VIENNA, JULY 18.-Great activity reigns
here in-the Government Offices. A Special Com-
mission, composed of Members of the Aulic
Council, is appointed to superintend the move-
ments of troops on the frontiers of Turkey. It is
said that three armies are to be formed, one in
Transylvania, a second in the Bannat and Smyrna,
and the third in Sclavonia and Croatia. The Aulic
Council, it is affirmed, have sent orders to several
regiments in Bohemia to march to the Eastern
Provinces.

Cl The Austrian Observer still maintains the
greatest silence respecting the affairs of Greece.
This silence is very amazing to our politi-
cians, because they feel convinced that it is
only through this demi-official Journal they can
receive certain information, touching the existing
relations between Russia and the Porte.

" Our cordon on the frontiers of Turkey re-
ceives daily reinforcements, but the strictest
neutrality continues to be observed.

" FRANRFORT, JULY 23.—We learn from
Odessa that the Counsellor of State, Mintschaki,
• .
has been sent from Constantinople to Petersburg
with dispatches.

" AUGSBURG, JULY 23.—1 t is reported tha
he Ottoman Porte has sent to the Schah 'of Per.

sia an Agent on a Mission of the highest impor.

tance. On the other hand it is said, that the
Court of Petersburg has also opened a negocia-

tion with this Asiatic monarch.
" We have received letters from the Banks o
the Danube, stating that the Hellenes are corn
plete masters of Salanica, and threaten seri.

ously the town of Seres. A great part of Mace-
donia is also in the power of the insurgents, who

are manoeuvring to cut off the retreat of the Otto
man troops in Albania.

" The news of a Russian corps having entered
Moldavia is.not yet confirmed. All the reports

respecting the movements of the Russians are

very contradictory; but it will not be long before

we shall learn the definitive resolution of the

Cabinet of Petersburgh. As:to Austria, she con-
tinues to take measures of precaution, by sending
large reinforcements to the cordon of troops on
the Turkish frontiers, and especially in the
Banuat and Temeswar."

Jamaica Papers arrived this morning, to the
14th June, by the Packet.
[From the Royal Gazette.]
" Letters from Panama, recently received,
contain several interesting particulars respecting
the of of Peru. By advices from Lima, up
to\thp 10th March, it appears that the Spanish
Commander-in-Chief, General LA SERNA, had
been appointed Viceroy, which had given great
satisfaction to the inhabitants in all the Provinces
south of Lima, and also in Upper Peru. The
most perfect tranquillity reigned, and no appre-

hensions were entertained from the troops of
Chili: the inhabitants of Lima feel themselves
superior to any attack of SAN MARTIN'S army,
the Chilian Commander having been roughly
handled at Guacho, his late head-quarters, in an
action with the Spanish troops, from which he
was obliged to retreat upon Truxillo, having
suffered a considerable loss in cavalry. The ad-
vices from Lima mention the arrival at Callao of
a ship of immense value from Calcutta, belong-
ing to the Philippine Company : she was fired
upon by one of Lord COCHRANE'S cruizers, but
got into port. The troops of Lima are repre-
sented to exceed 10,000 men ; about 8000 of
them are European veterans: add to these 4000
European Spaniards in the city of Lima under
Audi ; and as the whore of the country, except- ,

ing was open) there was no danger rot
want of flour.

4C Accounts from Saint Thomas's state, that
Puerto Cabello had fallen into the hands of the
In kts, and that the Sapphire and another
an-. f-war, had• pr ceeda Misthat port
to bring a% ay any of the inhabitants that may be
desirous to quit it.

" General McGREGOR was forming a colony
on the Mosquito shore, the Indian King having
ceded to him a vast territory.
" The Government of Chili has notified to
General BOLIVAR, that a 64-gun ship and two
brigs of wat had sailed to cruize off Cape San
Buonaventina, to intercept some vessels from
Old Spain.

" We learn from Santa Martha that several
regiments have embarked for Cape San Buona-
.
ventina from Guyaquil to join the forces there,
and attack Quito on different points."

It is with most heartfelt pleasure that we ob-
serve the rapidly increasing interest which has
been excited in favour of the oppressed, sutler-
ing, and nobly struggling Greeks. We were
right in saying that a spirit was awakening which
would rouse all England, if not all Europe, to
active exertion in behalf of outraged Chris-.
tianity, and of human nature, insulted and
trampled upon by the ferocious Government arid
barbarian subjects of the Porte. Having ob-
served that the sympathies of the British public
had at length begun to be powerfully acted upon
by the successive accounts of the wretchedness of
the Greek nation, and of the butcheries and de-
vastations of their atrocious tyrants, we ventured, 1,,
at the favourable crisis, to implore our country-
men for a moment to suspend their own political
animosities, and to combine all their energies for
the production of a generous effort for the salva-
tion of Greece, and for the redeMption of En-
rope and of Christendom from the opprobrjoil;
blot with which the insolerice of an Asiatic horde
of infidels and savages had for centuries been
permitted to cover and obscure one of the
brightest and most interesting sections of the
globe, upon which the sun of civilization had
ever shone. We recommended- that the public;
opinion of England should manifest itself by
means of the press, by public meetings, and by
pecuniary aids to the cause of. Grecian emanci-
pation. This call upon the humanity and gene-
rosity of the Public begins already to be nobly
answered. We rejoice to see that the liberation
of Greece, and the justice, the policy, the neces-
sity, of interference for her rescue, by the great,
European Powers, forms already the principal
daily theme of most of tife Public Journals
that the pre-Ss also begins to pour forth numerous
pamphlets, both original productions and trans-
lations, consisting of political essays on the exist-
ing relations of Turkey with the rest of Europe,
and on the vast advantages, moral, political, and
commercial, to be derived from her regenera-
tion, and of eloquent appeals to the wisdom, the
policy, the justice, the generosity and gratitude:
and even the interest, of the enlightened nations of
Europe, in support of the pressing demand Which
on all these grounds is made upon them by the con-
dition of theill-fated Greeks. One of these produc-
tions, entitled " The Cause of Greece the Cause 01
Ezerope,"a translation from the German, published
yesterday, warmly recommends a course some-
what similar to that which we suggested. 46 The,
10
Greeks cannot expect more, nor need they 'l'
more, than that the European Governments
should permit the assistance of their cause b.:7
money and voluntary participation of enthusiastic
individuals. There is no doubt but many war-
riors of most of the European armies would joY;
fully join in the contest,as soon as they were assure"
of the approbation of their Governments, and of the.
continuance of the enjoyment of their civil awl
military rights. And where could the desire for
action, so much excited during recent events'
find a worthier subject ? • The spirit of chivalry
is not yet extinct ; and the idea of a struggle for
the deliverance of a subjugated nation can
yet inspire noble minds with ardour and
enthusiasm. Many would gladly share in such
e
a combat; and large sums would every where
be collected, did the project but receive public
sanction.—lt is not iron alone, but gold as Weil!
which decides the fate of war. This, then, is
the assistance which the Greeks desire. Slielj
assistance would excite the jealousy of no ftv
ropean power, and consequently would occasiorice
no counter-operation; and finally, such assistliiloc
could be afforded without compulsion or the rby
of involving any nation in a war un require e
its own. interests.—To procure such assists° ,
