It is confidently assert-w—e=he City, and generally
believed, that certain leading members of the Greek
Committee, not acting as such, but individually, have
made arrangements with Lord COCHRAN" and Sir
RoaaaT WlLsoar, for securing their invaluable co-
operation in aid of the patriotic cause for which the
gallant people of that most interesting portion of
Europe have so long struggled, and sustained under the
most hopeless appearances.
It. is said that the plan and means of the intended
operations were first developed at a recent meeting in
the house of Sir FRANCIS BURDRTT ;—that a sum of
mot less_than 300,0004 is to be placed instantly at the
disposal of Lord COCHRAN', with which his Lordship
is, forthwith, to provide two steam-vessels, and, even-
tually, if possible, two ships of the line, which, it is sup-
posed, can be purchased of a Northern Power (Sweden
we presume); and last, though not least, that a military
force of 3,500 men is to be placed under command of
Sir ROaltltT WiLsou, expressly in co-operation with his
Lordship. The holders of Greek Scrip are, in conse•
qtieuce, as may well be believed, raised to the very
pinnacle of hope. Prices have risen nearly 10 per
Cent. and it is stated that an eminent banking-bouse in
the Strand, purchased yesterday no less than to the ex-
tent of 59.0004

Never was there a moment,-during the eventful and
dubiout contest so magnanimously maintained by the
ill-fated Greeks, at which such efficient co-operation is
so likely to be crowned-with success, whether we look
to the present aspect of the war, or to the gallant spirits
about to embark their hopes, their fortunes, and cha-
racters on the issue. In regard to the former, it seems
unquestionable, from a Proclamation of COLOCOTRONI,
that lERAHIM PACHA, if not actually a prisoner, it, with
his whole force, reduced to such straits, and so hemmed
in among the mountainous passes of that strong coun-
try, that he has no alternative but to surrender at
discretion ; and this Pacha is no mean prise. With
respect to the latter, we must say that we have
always considered the downfal of Lord COCHRAN* a
public misfortune. Utterly disclaiming any participa•
tion in his almost insane political opinions and conduct,
and most sincerely desiring to forget that part of his
private conduct which has estranged him from his
country, of which he was once the pride and ornament,'
we would wish to remember only his heroic achieve-
ments, his surpassing courage, and military talents
above all, that first attribute of a leader, which con-1
sists in knitting the hearts and affections of his followers
so closely with himself, that he and they seem to be
but one body, animated by one heart and soul, and
directed by one will, cur intelligence, and that of the
most exalted genius. Such a man, with reasonable,
support, cannot fail to conquer.

tegard to Sir ROBERT WILSON, it has long been!
