" Ibrahim Pacha, finding it impossible to scale the walls of
Missolonghi, resolved to attack the fort of Vassiladi, which is
placed in the centre of the Lagoons, and commands them.
The project was to deprive the besieged of the abundant fish-
ing which supplied them with subsistence. He therefore made
preparations to cannonade the fort and to carry it by storm as
soon as a breach should be made. After several unsuccessful
attacks, N'assiladi was taken on the 11th of this month, rand the
whole garrison, consisting of 160 men, put to the sword, ex-
cept three men, whose lives were spared., The loss of this fort
will decide the fate of
" Colocotroni, Nikita, Lorick), Zaime, Sissinis, and other
Chiefs, had formed a plan to surprise Tripolizza, but their
measures were so badly taken, that the first men who mounted
the walls were made prisoners by the French renegadoSelve,
called Solomon Bey. lie sent back to the Oreek camp the
principal Chiefs who had commanded the attack, after having
inhumanly had their ears and noses cut off, and desired Coloco-
.troni to concert his measures better another time."

Baron Strogonott who was employed by the Emperor Alex.
antler on several important missions, left Paris three days ago

sums, promising to his dupes immense treasures in his country,
which lie represented as another Eldorado. Ile was brought
to trial yesterday, with six other persons, represented as his
accomplices.

The prisoner, a man of Scotch extraction, is a very handsome
man. lie teas elegantly dressed, a large Scotch plaid thrown
across his shoulders. He answered every question with much
civility, though with a British accent. At his side was an Eng-
lish officer, named Hippisley; whose external appearance made
a striking contrast with that of ll'Gregor. According to the
evidence, all the charges were fixed upon Lehaby, one of the
accused, who was absent, and who was sentenced to two years
imprisonment. APtiregor, and four Englisinen, Messrs. Ir-
ving, Hippisley, Mills, and thinning, and two Frenchmen,
