LORD COCHRANE.

The following letters are extracted from the
Gazette de Lausanne, dated April 20 :

FROM LORD COCHRANE TO THE GREEK GOVERNMENT,

WRITTEN SHORTLY BEFORE HIS DEPARTURE.

" Your Excellencies—l have the honour to inform you,
that I shall set out in a few days. I shall sail on board one
of the vessels which have been given by the European Com-
mittees to the Greeks. I come as an Admiral in the service
of Greece, and I desire immediately to aid your great cause.
For this purpose I wish you would send forthwith to
Kydra, or to the Road, authority for me to hoist the flag
of your country.
_

4‘ I shall only touch at Hydra, without disembarking,
for I. will not set my foot on your shores, or present myself
to the Government at Napoli, until after I have endeavoured
to render the Greek flag triumphant.
_

I beg that you will direct the brave Miaulis to prepare
two of his best sailing vessels, well armed and provisioned
for two months ; and I should wish that they might be
ready to accompany me upon my arrival, in order to enable
me to act immediately, and to prove to Greece my devo-
tion to her cause. " I am, &c."

FROM LORD COCHRANE TO ADMIRAL :MAUL'S.

" Brave Admiral,—l expect shortly to be off Hydra,
and to commence directly my operations for the service of
Greece. I particularly wish to find ready on my arrival
at Hydra two of your best ships of war, provisioned for
two months. This is of so much importance, that I have
just written respecting it to the Government. Be so good,
brave Admiral, to anticipate its orders, if they should not
be quickly forwarded to you, and rely on the high conside-
ration and esteem of him who waits impatiently for the
moment which shall enable him to share your laurels.

" I am, Scc."

FROM ADMIRAL MIAIJLIS TO M. FYNARD.

Sir,-1 received your letter of the 19th of December.
Inasmuch as the presence of Lord Cochrane is necessary
for the military operations of the Greek navy, it is equally
as necessary that the wants of the fleet under the com-
mand of that intrepid officer should be attended to. Your
indefatigable zeal has happily provided for those wants, by
a convoy of provisions, specially destined for that fleet, and
you have thereby given us a new proof of your wise fore-
sight, and your great activity in the service of our unfor-

tunate nation.
" I thank you sincerely for your kind expressions, and
for the confidence which you have shown towards me, in
choosing me one of the commission for the inspection of
provisions. Both Admiral Tombazis and myself take all
pains to prove ourselves worthy of the choice.
" It was with this design that we represented to our
esteemed colleague, M. Geese, the actual state of our affairs.
We told him, that, on account of the disturbances which
had lately happened at Hydra, we did not consider it desir-
able to establish in that island the magazine of provisions ;
that we thought the Isle of Paros, where we are residing,
much more advantageous for that purpose ; that it was de-
sirable that the Noble Lord (Cochrane) should steer his
course direct to that island, as he would find these the ves-
sels and all the necessary supplies, with the preparation of
which I have been occupied according to the order of the
Government; and that we should have, therefore, the pro-
visions under our immediate inspection, whilst, if they are
placed at Hydra, we could neither superintend their distri-
bution nor be responsible for their safety.

" We have considered it necessary to make this expla-
nation to M. Gosse, but he did not think it right to allow
any deviation from your instruction., until the arrival of
Lord Cochrane, who will himself decide on the most ad-
vantageous course. This is the situation in which we now
stand, hoping that it will not be long before the noble Lord
appears.

-"
The certain news of his arrival has reanimated the
hopes of the Greeks. They look for him with open arms.
I am at present occupied at Paros, in preparing two
vessels for •t}ie; secret expedition which Lord Cochrane
meditates. I feel a glorious pride in co-operating with
this illustrious Admiral, for the safety of our country.

" I am, &c."
