Accounts Irom Corfu of the 23d ult. state, that the

affairs of Greece wore a promising aspect. There were
some jealousies anJ dissentions, but it was expected that
the presence of the Turks would unite all parties, from
the sense of common interest and common danger. The
Turks have wholly failed in raising an Albanian force.
The whole Turkish force in that quarter does not ex-
ceed 1,500 men, occupying Arta and Prevesa. Ac-
counts from Cimstantinople, by the way of Odessa,
come down to the beginning of April. Great prepara-
tions were in process of being made against the Greeks,
so great that they are regarded as the last stake of the
Porte. The approaching will be the fourth campaign,
and it is calculated more severe and sanguinary than

any preceding one. Turkey, it is said, has not resources
for a fifth.
