GREECE.

RXTRACT Or • LtiTTER FROM GREECE, or JIL:111C 15.

A great sensation has been created ie Greece by
the arrival of orders from the. French Government
to give i..ilitary support to Count Capo d'lstrias,
the chief of the Provisional Government. A part
of the troops in, the Nleesenian fortresses haa al-
ready been placed at his disposal,. and a report is
current that mute French troops are expected in
Greece. The abettors of Count Capo d'lstrias
give it out that elders. situiim to those arrived from
Fiance ate expeeted f: om England ; but this, how-
ever, is not believed. It seems spread with a view.
to render the present Ministry of England unpopu-
lar in Gteece, to whom Capo d'lstrias is known to
Le hostile, particularly so since they have brought
forward the great question of reform in Parliament,
which the Greek Gevernineut paper has more than
once announced as lost both in, Parliameut and by.
the new elections. We may ask, upon what prin-
ciple the French GoverunieLt founds its rights to
'offer French bayonets to Count Capo d'lstrias, to
support him" in his despotic government, and to ,
prep him up at a moment olien he has brought
himself into. trouble with dirt nation for having'
violated his faith towards her, peroecuted her
best patriots, despised the representatiuus of i
the most enlightened men in the country, and per- I
severed in a system of oppression resembling that
of Don Miguel. 'lle agents of Cape d'lstriam say
that Greece is infested by Jobbers, and that the
President's ainiin•tration is impeded by factious
and intriguing individuals, both_ national and fo-
reign. Such stuff cannot be believed either in
England or France, a here the with must be known,
Sr at least ought to be known. If it be uut known,
what is the use of having resident* in Greece ?
Are they to be merely the humble . servants of
Count Capiruletrias, to repeat his wishes to their
Governments, and to provide him with the means
'of establishing his family and making their fortunes'
in this country, end. of driving. into exile those
'Greeks who venture to say that.their cuuutry it
