Extract of a letter from the Isle of Cyprus, dated
August 15 :
"Our Island is the theatre of devastation. It is in a deplorable
syj ion. The Barbarians are burning and slaughtering in an ,
directions. Sixty villages are completely destroyed. The Church
of a village called Aspropagir is transformed into a Mosque. The
• Governor of Cyrinie entered the. Convent of St. Pantrleimon,
seized all the Monks, caused them to be saddled like horses, made
his gement, mount them, and flog them with whips like cattle.
The unhappy men, being unable to support the punishments,
,perished under the blows of their tyrants. A Cavazi (Carom's-
shiner) sent by the Pacha, and accompanied by troops, went into
the Monastery of Elea': he seized all the Monks, put them to
the torture, and particularly a certain Silvester. Several of these
Unfortunate men died in prison. In the village called Monte, the
Turks teak a conslderable number of women and little children,
shut them up In n house to which they set fire, and in which alt '
these unfortunate beings were consumed. The fire was commu-
nicated to the neighbouring houses, and from thence was props- I
gated throughout all the village.—Such is the melancholy Atuation !
of an Island which has remained tranquil and peaceful, and with-
out taking part in the movement of the other Greeks."
. Extract of a letter from Leghorn, dated 28th Sept.
" Towards the end of the month of February the Peloponnesian
!Antilles of Apostolo Teruca and Niccolas Crizso were made pri-
soners by the Algerines before Patters. They were at first taken
to Egypt, and thence to Mitilene, when the Algenlue fleet re
burned to the Archipelago. Two English vessels presented them-
selves before the Algerine fleet, and after many menaces, deli-
vered these unfortunate beings. The following is extracted from
a letter by one of the captives : Cdt quitting Barbary we ar-
lived at Iditikne, when the Algerine Admiral resolved to send
sta to Algiers. But on the 10th of the month of July .two
English vessels came in quest of us, and by dint of threatening..
the Turks delivered us up. We asked Captain Mout:roe to
transport us to Zante, and he did so without hesitation. The
Captain took great care of us. We feel very grateful to him. In
the position in which we now find ourselves we can only offer up
our prayers to the Suesizatx Buse for the happiness of our
benefactor.'"

The Piedniontese Gazette of the 31 inst. received
this morning, contains the following notice of the
preparations for the Congress at Verona:

TURIN, OCTOBER 3.
Accounts from Verona of the 24th ult. state that
the preparations for the reception of the Sovereigns
are proceeding with the utmost diligence. Ilk Im-
perial Highness the Archduke Viceroy was expected,
1)3 view the arrangements. It is generally believed
that the Sovereigns will be assembled in that city
about the middle of the present month.
Nis Majesty the King of Naples, say accounts from
that city of the 21st September, had been confined
some days to his apartments by a pain in the right
leg, which seemed likely to end in erysipelas; but he
left his room that day, being perfectly recovered, and
se:mingly in the hest health.
By a Decree of the 12th, his Majesty has abolished
the Permanent Junta of Public Instruction, and has
placed the University Degli &ail, the Lyceums, the
Colleges, and Schools, under a President, who, with
a Board of Professors, will examine everything rela-
tive to public instruction, the means of improving it,
fa. Monsignor D. Carlo Rosini, Bishop of Poz-
zuoli, has been nominated by his Majesty President
of the University.

By a German Mail which reached us this forenoon,
we have received the Austrian Observer to the Sd,
and the Journal slf Frankart to the 9th instant. The
latter contains an article from Tinos, one of the Cy-
clades in the Archipelago, dated the Sd of August,
which states, that great alarm had been felt at the
entrance of the Turks into the hlorea. That alarm,
we presume, is by this time allayed, since there can
be no doubt that the incursion of the Turks into the
hlorea has been most disastrous to them. The writer
of the article from Tinos, who, after all, is perhaps only
some Austrian mercenary, expresses great anxiety for
the safety of the Islands, and quotes the fate of &io
as a lesson for those who revolt against their Sove-
reign in Turkey ; while " Izra, loaded with favours
by the Porte, and enjoying uninterrupted peace, will
bear testimony of the reward reserved for a [people
which has been able to resist the example of folly the
most seductive, and, at the same time, the must per-
ftdious suggestions, and which has braved every threat,
to remain faithful to its Sovereign."
