NAVARIN.—The harboui of Navarin lies at
the south-west corner of the Morea. It is of a roundish
form, with an island lying across the mouth of it. The
entrance is by the south end of the island, where the pas-
sage is 600 yards wide ; the north entrance is too shallow
for large vessels. The island is two miles long, and a
quarter of a mile broad. The basin is six miles in circum-
ference. The port of Navarin is the ancient harbour of
Pylus. In the seventh year of the Peloponnesian war,
Demosthenes, time Athenian general, seized and fortified
Pylus. A Spartan army immediately besieged him there,
and part of them passed over, to the island, then called
Sphacteria, for the purpose of completely blockading him,
while the fleet watched the entrances of the harbour. An
Athenian fleet, at last, entering the harbour, by both
mouths, attacked the Spartan fleet lying within, and de-
stroyed the whole of it. The Spartans on the island, being
cut off from all assistance, surrendered prisoners at discre-
tion to the Athenians. The late battle was fought on the
Greeks defeated the Persian fleet, on the 20th of October,
anniversary of the great battle of Salamis,. wherein the
460, B.C. 2306 years ago. May we indulge the hope
that this battle is an omen of an equally happy and glorious
deliverance for Greece?..-Scotsman.
