MEDITERRANEAN COAST, MAY 15.

We have received letters of a recent date from Smyrna, which
state that the Viceroy of Egypt is quite unable to send any rein-

foreements to his son Ibrahim, because the formation of an army,
by the express command of the Porte, to re-establish tranquility in
Syria, has forced him to employ all the troops be could spare for
that expedition, so that he has left only a corps by no means consi-
derable, of which he is much in need. to preserve order at home.
There are no Raptians remaining in the Isle of Rhodes. It does
cot seem, therefore, that Ibrahim Pacha, who has with bins all
the troops that were hi Canine, can expect any further rein-
forcements, unless they are sent by the Porte itself, which does
not appear very probable, as he is still looked on with distrust at
Constantinople, and they are unwilling to give him the chief com-
mand of Turkish troops ; they are, besides, dissatisfied with his
mode of proceeding. It was expected that he would advance ra-
pidly into the interior of the Morea, and, by means of the party
which he has there, would subdue that province, as in his early.re-
ports he stated his connections there to be very important. Now,
as he has not advanced, and not been able to make himielf master
of some inconsiderable Greek forts (Navarino and Calamata), no
confidence is placed at Constantinople in the result of his expe-
dition, and it seems that he will be left to his fate. • Theaccounts-
from" the Levant are by no means favourable to him ; he has aireidi
Wit some thousand men, partly by battles, partly by sickness, and
his troops are very discontented.
The Greeks have hitherto confined themselves to repelling 40 his
attacks, and keeping him blocked up In the little district whicli be
occupies. Meantime they daily become stronger, and pie Pare
everything for a great attack, which is not to be attempted till there
is every probability of decisive success. Ibrahim has recalled his
duet, probably to be able to embark when the daffier becomes too
great ; but this fleet endeavours to avoid coming to any engagement ;
and that of the Greeks, under the command of Sachtory, is con-
tinually-becoming stronger. Re may expect to hear of importint.
events in that quarter in a few days.
The abovementioned letters from Smyrna say, that people ire
astonished at the inactivity of the Captain Packs, and beliefe that
the most favourable moment for making an attempt, with some
chance of success, on the Greek Islands, has passed away. Uydra
is in the best state of defence, and seems now to have nothing to
fear from an attack. In Samos everything is duly organised to re-
sist, with success, every attempt. Admiral Miaulis is cruising close
to Tenedos, and the Turkish ships stationed there, do not ven-
ture to approach him. The Asiatic Coast is continually alarmed
by the Greeks. The Asiatic troops that have arrived there, are
not numerous and very ill disciplined, so that the Porte cannot ex-
pect much from them, if it should employ them in an expedition.

Rio de Janeiro Papers, which have been received to
the•l4th of March, state, that considerable apprehen-
sions were entertained for the safety of Monte-Video, after the re-
eeipt of the news of the total defeat of the Spanish army in Peru-
Troops bad been sent to reinforce Monte-Video, and a ship of war
with some troops.

We have received further arrivals from India, in
Calcutta Papers to the 19th of February. The follow-
ing extract from the Calcutta John Bull of the 4th
of February, represents the war against the Burmese
as going on very favourably.:

CHITTAGONG, FEBRUARY 4.

The enemy have evacuated the Mongdoo stockade, and shown
real prudence in so doing, for the approach of our gunboats, and
an intercepting force up the river Mongdoo, left their body, about
a thousand strong, much exposed.

We shall go on smoothly enough ; we have men, ships, guns, and
gun-boats, adequate to the conquest: all is therefore straight forward.
The Barmen have no serious intention of resisting us. We may
now conclude and negotiate a peace on our own terms. We have
plenty of provisions.
The Light infantry arrived•on the Zd, in very strong force and
