" On the 30th of May a boat arrived at Corfu in

s from Sa]

ith dispatches from
[dent in that island,
to Sir F. Adam, the Lord Nigh Commissioner. The
subject of these dispatches was the arrival at Santa
Maura of a Turkish brig of war, which had taken
refuge in the port of Skropias, to escape the pursuit
of the Perseverance.

" It is said that the Perseverance remained 24
hours off thatyort, and, at the expiration of that
time, Captaitr Hastings,. who commands the steam-
boat, sent to the English resident at Santa Maura,
requiring him to order the Turkish brig to quit the
port in which it had taken refuge, since, according
to the system of neutrality adopted by the Govern-
ment of the lonian Islands, the vessels of the belli-
gerent parties were not allowed to remain above 24
hours in the ports of those islands.

" Major Temple intimated to Captain Hastings
that he must withdraw to the distance of a sea mile
from Santa Maura, in compliance with the same
system of neutrality, and that then he, Major
Temple, would not fail to make the brig depart.--
Captain Hastings immediately replied, that first of all
the brig mug be made to' depart, and that he would
return at the same moment to the distance required;
and that, if it was permitted W. remain there any
longer, lie was resolved to burn it in the port. It
was under these circumstances that the Major has
sent to ask instructions of the Lord High Com-
missioner.

" A letter from Zante says, that on the 28th of
May, the Hellas frigate was seen with a brigantine.
At two o'clock these 'vessels were so near the coast
that the persons on board could be distinguished.
Lord Cochrane was in the. frigate, which, besides
the Greek colours, bore also the Admiral's flag. Two
boats came to the Lazzaretto, one brought some
Turks and a captain of a merchantman from Cepha-
lonia; the other Lord Cochrane's nephew and
Miaulis. The Cephaloniot captain was owner of a
marlignane, taken near the Scrophes, on board of
which were 27 Greek prisoners and 10 Turks, who
were to be conveyed to Patras.
" Admiral Cochrane delivered up the 10 persons
at Zante, and required that the captain should be
punished for having violated the system of neutrality,
by conveying Greek prisoners. The brigantine was
a Turkish vessel, laden with 180 barrels of powder,
butter, and other provisidns, which had left Prevesa
shaeidhop thated
civilized for Patras, with 40 Turks, both men and women.

forrnations acted in this whichhe
manner,and
that the Pacha would, therefore, do the same. The
ships remained till ten o'clock with all their sails
spread. They then sailed for Clarenza, perhaps to
join the Perseverance. We do not know where that
vessel is, but it is said to be blockading two Turkish
vessels in the port of Skropias, in Santa Maura.
" Lord Cochrane litts sent to the resident at
Zante the declaration of the blockade of the Gulf
of Patras : since that time all consignments to that
Place are suspended.
" A captain from Modon says, the Turkish fleet
of 29 sail, from Constantinople, had entered that
port. Some days earlier the Egyptian ships which
vi
the new governor of Candia brought from Alexandria
to Candia, had arrived

sum of money.

The Captain of a vessel, in 17 days from Alexan-
dria, says, that the Egyptian fleet was fitting out
very slowly, and would not be ready to sail in less
than three months. The same Captain met near
Zante the Turkish fleet from Constantinople, amount-
