FLANDERS MAIL.

VIENNA, AUG. is affirmed that the
Archduke Ferdinand, Governor-General of Hun-
gary, will have the chief command of all the
troops forming our army of observation on the
eastern frontiers. The strength of this army has
been exaggerated ; it will not exceed 60,000
men at present ; the cause would be different if
war should break out; for if then,even if Austria
took no part in it, the army would be probably
augmented to double its actual force. Opinions
here are more than ever divided on the subject of
peace and war. The arrival of every new cou-
rier causes a change of opinion. It is certain
that our Government does its utmost to prevent
war. The people of Vienna, as well as the Aus-
trians in general, take a lively interest in the
fate of the Greeks. If the Government allowed
it there would be already numerous associa-
tions in their favour. The Greek merchants
at Vienna eagerly refute the reports contained
in some papers of the cruelties exercised by the
Greeks against the Turks. These accounts are, if
we believe them, mere fictions.

A Declaration of the Cabinet of the Tuileries
is spoken of, but which, far from being alarm-
ing, furnishes a new proof of the prudence and
perspicacity of the present Government of France.
On the other hand, an extraordinary activity pre-
vails in our Cabinet. Our resolution is taken

The German Papers and Dutch Mail, received
this morning, bring the following intelligence.
There has been a severe action between the
Greeks and the Turks, which, according to the
Mahometan account, terminated most disastrously
for the Greeks. We must not, however, rely on
the truth of all that the rvlussulinans say in praise
of their own valour, any more ilium we do on
that which they allege as to their moderation
and clemency :

" VIENNA, SEPT. I.
" OTTOMAN EMPIRE.

" By the latest accounts from Constantinople
of the 10th August, it appears that news had been
received there from, the Morea and Livadia,
which state, that the Imperial troops had suc-
ceeded in driving the Insurgents from some dis-
tricts of those provinces, and in restoring tran-
quillity there. The details are contained in the
following
‘c

EXTRACT FROM A REPORT OF MAIIOMED PACIIA,

GOVERNOR OF. THE MOREA, TO GRAND VISIR,

or• JULY 23 :-

4c I inform your Excellency, that I arrived
before Livadia on the 23d June, and enca►npQd

here with my army. The Rajas had murdered
thQgreater part of the Alussulmen in this pro-
vince, violated their women, and made their fa-
milies slaves. They persisted in their rebellion,
and when they learned- that troops were ad-
vancing against them, the insurgents of the sur-
rounding districts united with those who formed
their advanced posts in the Morea, and entrenched
themselves in Livadia. To prevent the desola-
lion of the country, and to treat them with mo-
deration, I sent several flags of truce to them,
who summoned them to avoid the impending mis-
fortune,and declared to them, that if they would
submit, they might expect security and pardon
of what had passed from the Sublime Porte.
" Without paying the slightest attention to
this generous offer,the insurgents agreed together
that they would not suffer themselves to be con-
sidered as Rajas for the future, and began a fire
of cannon and musketry from the fort and en-
trenchments.

" Early in the morning the Army drew up in
three lines, and began the battle. Victory de-
clared for the Alusselmen, and the greater part
of the Insurgents was cut. to pieces. Of those
who remained about 1,000 escaped into the fort;
and 1500 retreated with their arms into houses.
One or two of these houses were set on fire to
make room for the van of the army, and if neces-
sary to storm the place. A high -wind suddenly
arising spread the flames ; the; Insurgents who
had fled into the houses were the viaims, and al-
most the half of the large and handsome build-
ings was consumed, and it was with difficulty
that those lying on the top of the mountain were
saved. As the fire caught the house in which I
myself was, I was obliged to remove to another_
" On the day of my arrival before Livadia a
certain Captain Dissuvo had left the City and
collected a band of Rebels a mile and a half off.
It was therefore necessary to take measures for
hindering them from coming to the aid of the In-
surgents shut up in the fort. For this purpose
I caused the village to be attacked with
two-thousand men. The enemy was entirely
defeated, 150 dead_ and as many wounded
remained on the field. When the enemy shut
up in the Fort saw that there was no deliverance
for them, they threw themselves in despair from the
ramparts; some were killed, others dreadfully
mutilated. Those that were still in the fortress
begged -for mercy for themselves, their wives,
and children ; and- it mas granted them."
" In this engagement there have perished in
all above 3,000 of the enemy, partly by the
sword and partly by the flames. As the Coran
says, " When thou hast gained a victory over thy
" enemy, thou shalt pardon him in order to
" testify thy gratitude," the remainder of the
Insurgents could :eckon on the magnanimity and
mildness of the Sublime Porte, which was in fact
she wn towards them when they declared their sub-
mission, and begged permission to return to their
houses. A Buluk-Baschi was ordered for. this
_purpose with a detachment of troops to receive
them in the Castle, and to conduct them back
to their dwellings. This was done in solemn
procession, amidst the acclamations of the con-
querors, carrying before them the standards taken
from the rebels."

44 At Smyrna tranquillity is restored, Scala
Nuova and Mytelene, on the contrary, were the
theatre of the most sanguinary scenes.

" Near Salonichi there is likewise a band of
insurgents, which the Pacha of that town is or-
dered to disperse and destroy. The Turkish fleet
lately seen off Samos is said to have gone to
Rhodes, to join the squadron fitted out by Ma-
hornet Ali, Pacha of Egypt. This squadron i 4
stated to consist of 15 Fail, and to be manned
chiefly with European sailors. It is commanded
by Ismael Gibraltar, the same who was for'rnerly
the Pacha's agent in Sweden and Leghorn. He
is said to have able seamen, and even to have
formerly served on board English ships.
" Ibrahim, Pacha of Brussa, is still encamped
near Bujukdere, on the Bosphorus ; he has re-
ceived fresh reinforcements of troops from Asia."

Among the most remarkable works of the late
days is the execution of Yell Pacha and Mondar
Pacha, the two elder sons of Ali Dependeli
Pacha, of Joanniva. The first was in exile at
Kutahie, and the second at Kaissarige. A Greek,
disguised as a Dervise, served them as a spy; he
was arrested at Constantinople, and the corres-
pondence found on him betrayed the secret of
the sons of the Tyrant of Epirus.
The Royal French frigate the Lily has brought
to Smyrna Rear Admiral Ilalgan; he immediately
hoisted his flag on board La Guerriere.
" The events which most European Journals
have announced with so much confidence, such
as the participation of the Jews in the dreadful
excesses committed on the dead body of the
Patriarch, the violation of 150 Greek virgins in
the Bazar, and so many other reports, are wholly
unknown in Constantinople, and absolutely fic-
tions, originating in other countries. The heads
of the Jewish community.at Constantinople have
even taken public steps to refute the reports re-
lative to their nation, and the well-known affair
at Odessa too well justifies their apprehension of
similar re-actions in other places.
" The plague has made no farther progress at
Smyrna. In the capital no symptoms of it had
yet appeared.
C 4 WA LLACHIA AND MOLDAVIA.--Troops of
the dispersed insurgents still harbour in the re-
cesses of the mountains of Moldavia, and are

1

very dangerous to the tranquillity of the
province. One of these troops appeared on the
19th in the evening, quite unexpectedly, before
the town of Nyamz, in which there was a
'Turkish garrison of 25 men, surrounded the
town, and set it on fire in three places. .The
Turkish garrison, and thnt aft the Jewish inha-
bitants, threw themselves into the Church of St.
John, which, however, was soon set on fire by
the insurgents on all sides, and was still burning -
at the,departure of the messenger, who was
witness to this horrible scene. A corps of the
Turkish army was expected from Jassy; which i 5
destined to put an end to the farther incursions
and marauding of these remains of the Hetarists
in that province.—(Austrian Observer, Sept. 1.)

4/ BRODY, AUG. 9.—The German papers greatly
exaggerate the Russian warlike preparations an
marches of troops. The greatest part of the southern
army under Gen. Count Wittgenstein is still in its
old cantonments,-and has merely detached some
light troops to the Pruth. The West Army, a:

a large mass of troops,. which is between 01(
town and Odessa, nothing is observed that indi-

affairs of the Greeks. Political considerations
seem to have induced the Cabinet of St. Peters'
burgh to resolve to take other measures than

SUN OFFICE, HALF-PAST TWO O'CLOCK.

The KING had not returned to Milford Ha-
ven on Wednesday, and as there are no ad-
vices of his having put into any other port,
there is little doubt that his MAJESTY has
weathered the Land's End, and we shall
probably next hear of him at one of the ports in
the English Channel.

HAYERPO RD WEST, SEPT. 10.--In the forenoon
of yesterday the Royal standard was descried,
and speedily afterwards the splendid yacht, with
the King of ENGLAND on board, was seen work-
ing into the harbour. It is impossible to describe
the feeling which seemed to pervade the whole
population of the town and neighbourhood ; one
impulse alone appeared to direct them, and that
was of the most warm and affectionate attach-
ment for their Sovereign. The joyful intelli-
gence quickly spread through the surrounding
country, and in a short time throngs of well-
dressed people began to arrive, and took the
earliest opportunities of procuring boats, plea-
sure vessels, &c. to take them alongside the
superb vessel which his Majesty was on
board of ; their anxious expectations were,
however, disappointed, owing, as it is said, to
the indisposition of his Majesty, who felt tile
effects of the tremendous night of Saturday.
Crowds of boats continued a long time to sur-
round the Royal yacht, and hearty and conti-
nued cheers were heard, but the King did not
appear. The town of Milford was brilliantly
illuminated in the evening.—The Mayor and
Council of this Borough were in waiting to know
his Majesty's pleasure as to their presenting him
an Address of Congratulation, but the answer
was, that his Majesty did not intend to land.
PEMBROKE, SEPT. 1 I.—Sai led from Milford
this morning, at five o'clock, the Royal squadron,
with his MAJESTY on board, it being more mode-
rate, with wind at West. His MAJESTY con-
tinued so indisposed yesterday, as to render him
unable to gratify the curiosity of the 'numerous
spectators. His MAJESTY, however, was pleased
to express his entire satisfaction at the unanimous
loyalty evinced during his stay in the harbour.
In the evening a general illumination again took
place.
