We have already mentioned a report 'which
was prevalent in Vienna, that the celebrated
ALI PAULA had fled froM the fortress of Jannina,
and had taken refuge with, a party of his soldiers
in Sclavonia. The following extract of a pri-
vate letter which was received yesterday, re-
ferring to this interesting subject, seems to offer
a decided contradiction to that statement :
" The rebel Ali Paella; holdS out in
his strong fortress, the, citadel of. Jannina,
and as bi has within the * walls abundatfe- of
provision and ammunition; he will probably bailie

for they, are Without cannon; and the snow
had fallen upon the Pindus Mountains before the
last accounts came away; -it will therefore be
im-
possible for them to transport' it by that route
till the month 'of April, and even then it will
be diflicolt.
