a movement to succour these vessels, seeing them star-
rounded by the Greeks; but some of the latter making
a sudden evolution, were advancing to surround him in
his turn. The Capitan Pacha immediately tacked, and
retired. ;On seeing the Turkish ships on fire, the Asiatic
trOops at Scala Nueva disbanded themielves, and above
half of them was dispersed in a few days.
On the 30th, the Captain of a merchantman saw Con-
stantine Canaris at Syra; he was an object of public cu-
riosity and encomium : he seemed to care little for
them. He has refused the honours preparing for him
at Napoli'di Romania; and the considerable rewards
offered him by the Government of Greece. He answers
that he desires only a name and the independence of his
country. He is gone to meet the Egyptian fleet.
FROM THE SMYRNEAN.
SCALA. NUOVA, AUGUST 19.
Tor some days the Ottoman squadron was in sight of
the Greek fleet, when, after divers insignificant move.
ments on both sides, the Greeks, to the number of 30
sail, advanced towards the little channel which separates
Samos from the Asiatic Continent about two miles.
Scarcely had the Mussulmans perceived the situation of
the enemy, when they demanded, with three loud
cheers, to be led to battle. Three times the Captain
?ache refused his people the permission to fight, ob-
serving to them that the position of the Greeks was ad-
tantageous, and that they would get themselves into a
situation of embarrassment. This availed nothing ; the
Mussulmen, in their enthusiasm, threatened to mutiny
and go to battle without orders. Yielding to necessity,
the High Admiral then ordered a division to advance
towards the Greeks; this division soon reached in full
sail the little channel. The Greeks utteed loud cries,
and remained motionless at their post. Three fire.ships
Were directed against the Pigate that had the lead. The
cordage took fire. The Turk 'by a heavy cannonade
endeavours to keep off the destructive fire which is ready
to consume him. All his efforts are in vain • courage
must yield to. necessity ;*the.. frigate is all inflames ; it ,
tacks and stands towards :the-Continent. On this the
Turkish squadron disperses ; •all fly without hesitation;
and the Greeks spreadink all 'their sails, pursue them.
In the midst of the-general confusion , the frigate blows
bp, a genei-al panic prevails, and the Mussulman
elites himself alreadi-oveitaken by ' the 'enemy. Some
get into the open sea, others steer towards the coast,
Where they strand and Sinn their vessels. Only one
Algerine bag, surrounded by the' Greeks, was com-
pelled to surrender. In this affair the Turks lost a fri-
gate, a corve,te, and two. brigs. The greater part of
the crews of these vessels perished.
