THE EMPEROR AND KING,
DON AIIGUEL ANTONIO DR AC
_ _

The affairs of the Greeks, which have always been
bright and gloomy by turns, have 13tely assumed an
aspect which has made some of our cotemporaries
utterly despair of their independence. The principal
cause for despondency (the quarrels of the Greeks
among themselves always excepted), is in the supposed
arrival of the Turco-Egyptian expedition at Na,
which port, a letter from Trieste, in the Quotidierme,
asserts it entered on the 4th of November. Now, as
the last accounts from Constantinople and Alexandria
maintained that the fleet had not left the latter
place at the beginning of November, it
not reach the Morea so early as the 4th ult. With a
favourable wind the fleet might reach the Archipelago
in six days from Alexandra, but as the westerly wines
prevail at this time, it is very improbable that the p 4 .
sage would be made so quick. Besidrs, *e cut
scarcely think that the Grerk Admirals MIAULIS, CA.
NAIRN, and SACHTURIS, would omit the oppottututy of
intercepting the Turkish expedition, and at least re.
clueing its force by one of those skilful and daring
manceirvres which have been often so success:ulll em.
ployed during the war.
The siege of Missolonghi still continues: but the
Frankfort Papers, which we received this morning to
the lit inst. contain some very favourable ihtelbgence
from Missolonghi, in an account of two succes4l at-
tacks on the besiegers, in which five or six hundred of
the Turks were killed and some of their works destroyed.
The following are the details :

VIENN A, Novisma 24, 25.
The Austrian ukserver gives various extracts from
the Greek Chronicle of Missolonghi, horn the 21st of
September to the sth of October. No. 79, of September
24, gives a long account c.f an attack made on the
21st of September, on the Turkish works. They had
prepared a mine to blow up the crown of the ,t,rrace
of the Franklin battery. To deceive the Turks, they
first blew up a small mine and then began the attack,
which continued with great spirit on both sides, bat
to the disadvantage of tt.e Turks, till, at four o'clock in
the afternoon, the Greeks sprung their great mine,the
effects of which are described as having been most
destructive to the Tusks. The works in which
they had employed so • much time and labour were
destroyed in an instant. The Mahormtans, seized With
4 panic terror, retreated in the greatest confusion and
in all directions, exposed to a heavy fire from the
Greeks. Part of the garrison of Missolonghi ma•le a
sally to attack the enemy in his own entrrachments,
but the blowing up of the mine had caused such a cleft
in the ground, that it stopped the pursuit. The Turks
on the other side of the cleft, finding themselves safe,
kissed the ground and waved their bright sabres as ia
defiance of the victors.—" This victory will be inscribed
in golden characters in the annals of Greece. The
loss of the. Turks cannot be less than 400 men, and as
the booty, both in arms and clothes, is tor the most part
rich, it is certain that the enemy lost many Officers.
The Greeks had fifteen killed and•thirtrfive wounded.
—The prisoners say, the 1,500 Turks, cavalry and is-
rantry, encamped about .Anatolico, have set fire to their
barracks, and have gone home. Soliman Pacba, d
Berat, who commanded in the little fort of Anatolia
has also gone home. The Kiaja Bey has come by sea,
Isom Salons, with only sixty men; the others demand
their pay before they join the camp. Nothing of im-
portance is stated as having Occured, though there sat
occasional firing on both sides till the sth est October,
when the Greeks sprung another mine, by
which 150
of the enemy were killed. The Greeks bad two killed

and three wounded.
By the arrival at Liverpool, on Sunday night, of the
Aries, Captain Tomas, from Monte Video, which place
she left on the 22d September, we have some intelligence
respecting the affairs of the Banda Oriental. Hostilities,
it appears, had not ceased between the Patriots and the
Brazilians ; a reinforcement of troops had arrived toll*
assistance of the Imperialists, who made an attack on
the Patriots, and claimed the victory. So elated oeee
they with this slight advantage, that they intended. to
make a second attack in a day or two.
