TRIESTE, JULY 29.
We send this on purplise to inform you of the news,
which gladdens our soul, that we have learned trom.two
Au
froni
Austrian vessels, which arrived here ye.terday to-
day,Constantinople, in a certain manner, that the
brave Greeks, at last, after a sanguinary engagement,
succeeded in wounding Ibrahim Pacha, and then took
him prisoner. This news is-certain, for the Captains of
those vessels spoke with several Greek Captains, and,
among others, with the Admiral lkliaulis, who informed
them that he bad received official intelligence of that
glorious event& This unexpected communication has,
by its arrival, filled our town with joy and enthusi.:st;c
rapture. We are now impatiently expecting a detailed
account by a further opportunity. Ibrahim Pacha was
on the way to Corinth, stud is seems that the engage-
ment took place there.
JULY 28.—1 announce to you with great sitidaction
that there arrived her feiterday three Atistrian %revels,
twn from anyrnA, and one fioin Constantinople. The
Captain of the latter, named It ingc.eorch, had left
that place 21 days prior, and on his way had received
a visit from Tombisis," who informed him 11 the
Greeks had succeeded in caking Ibrahim Pacha, the
leader of the Egyptian troops, who had been wounded
in the thigh, and who,. on his being taken, was lent to
Napoli. On proceeding further, he met Cai.tain Sto?'-
covich, who was coming from hI lina by the v.. 1,
Zante, and that Captain told him the same news. He
received that intelligence on the 13th inst. The two
vessels from Smyrna had received no visits,' because
they had had a favourable wind, and had therefore pro-
ceeded without stopping. Blessed be Gon, who has
delivered us from our despair, and thus filled our soul.
with joy ! A vessel from Smyrna had met a fisher-
man's bark near Cerigo, and bad learned that Ibrahim
Pacha 'was in treaty with Colocotroni. The TUrkish
troop, which had been landed at:Navarino, were taken
' from that place to Patras ; for, the commander, seeing
that he could not have any communication with Ibra-
him Pacha, was afraid Co remain in the fortress of Na-
varino, is, on account of the want of water, it would
easily. become a prey to an invading force. We give
implicit credit to the above, for we rarely find that the
Greek vessels of war give false intelligence, and we
double not but we shall speedily receive a confirmation,
with the details of the engagement Those brave
Frenchmen' are now become the servants of the Turks.

bottle of brandy for Mrs. Newsome, a Lady who re-
sided in the neighbourhood, and with whom be lived,
and tendered the instrument in question.- Mr. Crafter
said lie would have no objection to change the check
if he got Mrs. Newsome to endorse it. The prisoner'
vent away for about a quarter' of an hour, and 're-
turned with the check endorsed with the name of Mrs.
Newsome, and then he said' he wanted two bottles of
.brandy. Mr. Crafter then gave the prisoner the change
for the check, deducting the price of the two bottles of
brandy. Suspecting that all was not right, he followed
the prisoner, to see if he went to Mrs. Newsome's house,
but finding that he went past it, he stopped him, and
took him into custody. On searching his person, three
,other forged checks, purport:fig to be drawn on the
same batik, by different persons, and the money which
'had been paid him, were Aund in his pocket.

fields, where she cohabited with Edward Turner. She
occupied the first floor, and the prisoner occupied the
ground floor in the same house. On the 33d of July,
Miss Thistlewood missed the articles in question, one et
which was a shirt, which she had m.tde for Turner. Thr

with whom she cohabited. Upon denying all know-
ledge of the stolen articles, the constable asked the ma-
to
point out his boxes? which lie did ; but nothing ev..s
found in them to excite suspicion. The prisoner then
produced the key of her own boxes, in ore of whien
were found the articles in question. She said she bad
had the shirt by her for seven months. The other ami-
des she said she had found.
