This forenoon we received a Flaudets Mad, bring-
ing Brussels Papers to_ the 4th instant, and accounts
from Vienna to the 24th alt. The total silence of the
Austrian Observer as to the affairs of Greece, and its
abandoning the victory it had assigned to the Turks
is'strong evidence that the Greeks have been success-
ful. The accounts, however, are sO contradictory
that it is impossible to reconcile them. An article
from Frankfort of the 26th ult.:says, 46 It is affirmed
that in the famous battle at Thermopyle the Greeks
were aided by the counsels of a foreign General of
distinction, who came from Corinth. This Officer,
who observed the strictest incognito, fought in the
tanks merely as a Greek Captain." The war between
the Turks and Greeks is assuming a still more fero-
cious character, as will be seen by the following ar-
ticle from one of these Papers:
EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM CORFU, DATED JULY 25.
The accounts from the Continent, of the 16th of
this month, inform us that a party of thirty Franks,
encamped at the village of Pera, near Arta, was stir-
prised and surrounded by the Turks. They were
taken to Arta, where the barbarians curt off their ears
and noses, and putout their eyes, and sent them back
in this condition to the camp of the Greeks, who, in-
flamed with anger at this sight, fell upon the Maho-
tnetans, and retaliated, by cutting in pieces 340 pri-
soners who fell into their hands.
. .

While these scenes of horror were passing in the
south of Epirus, Mark Botzaris, issuing from the
mountains of Sulf, penetrated by the plateau of Joan-
nina, and overran part of Calzana-Choria, from
which he drove the Turks, who escaped only by em-
barking on the lake to return to the fort of Joannina.
Letters from Parga say, that the plague has ap-
peared at Paramythia, and in a great many villages
of the Chamouri.

The latest accounts from Zante say, that four Ame-
rican frigates or corvettes are cruising before the
castle at Patras. At the departure of the post, there'
was a report of a sanguinary combat at Thermopyle,
on the 7th and Bth of July, of which various ac-
counts were given, according to the inclinations of
the, narrators.
The death of Odysseus was generally spoken of—
a 105 S which was more than made up for by the sue-
ccss of the brave and prudent Mark Ilietzaris. No
reliance is now placed, in Greece, in the assistance of
Russia, to which, as Chourschi'd Pacha has publicly
announced, " the Porte had deigned to grant peace,
since it has abandoned the cause of its Greek fellow-
Christians, and recognized the preeminence of the
Crescent above the standard of the Cross." Though
this is merely the boasting of a barbarian, it is not
easy to describe the sinister impression which it-has
made on the minds of the Christians.

After the taking of Athens, the Greeks having
learnt the massacres at Scio, retaliated by massacre-
ing all the Turks. Two French vessels succeeded in
saving about 300 Musselman women. It is afflict-
ing that amidst so many instances of invincible va-
lour and perseverance, religion and humanity should
have to deplore excesses of which Christian soldiers
stiould never be guilty.
