We have received accounts from Corfu of the 14th
September, and from Zante of the 17th, respecting'
tl.e state of things in the Morea at the latest period.
Though they do not throw a complete light on the
events, they give, however, much useful information,
considering the insufficiency of the direct accounts
frcim Constantinople. These accounts come from.
persons who, strangers to all party spirit, know no
other duty. or interest than to give a faithful and im-
partial account of facts, as far as they are acquainted
with them. _ _ _

This circumstance is applicable to all reports which
the Austrian Observer is permitted to make use of,
and should in justice be rather oftener recollected
when people judge of our articles, and compare them
with other statements which ate materially partial,
and therefore not wholly to be depended upon.
According to the reports from Onrfu, it appears
certain that Chourschid Pacha did not execute his
march to the Morea with his accustomed prudence,
but with great precipitation ; that he calculated nei-
ther the resources of the country into which he pene-
trated, nor the resistance that he might experience; and
that, after an unexpectedly rapid progress, he found
himself at Argos without sufficient fotces to continue
his operations,and without pt ovisions. The consequence
was, that the Turkish Generals were obliged to re-
tire to Corinth. That on this occasion they were at-
tacked by different Chiefs of the lnsurgenth and suf-
fered considerable loss. The garrison of Napoli di
Romania was again abandoned to its own resources,
and again ready to capitulate.
These events, the dates of which are not precisely
stated in our accounts, seem to have taken place at
the latter end of August. The Turks, however, re-
mained masters of Corinth, and, from this important
point they might, as soon as they felt themselves'
strong enough, resume at pleasure the operations
which had been interrupted.
On the 13th of September news had been received
at Corfu that a division of the great Turkish fleet had
bled the southern point of the Morea, and landed
ROmania; so that not only
again escaped the danger
obliged to capitulate, but

acatitnts 'from Sante taste she events in the
Morea—the retrograde movements of the Turks, their
aisles and consequences;with•as little deakitis those
from Cods, but, on the whole, in perfect agreement
'With them. Nothing had transpired in Zama; of any
decisive defeat of the Turks; on the contrarvit was
positively asserted there, that the actions which bad
taken place between the 6th and the 9th of Septem-
ber, had been greatly to• the disadvantage of the
Greeks, who had boat in them, among others, the
Chiliard Petinessa and his son ; and had, at the end,
retreated into their strong positions.
Jussuf Pacha, who commands the head-quarters, at
Corinth, was incessantly occupied in collecting pro-
visions and reinforcements.
These accounts give a melancholy picture of the
state of the country. The four Military Chiefs, Co-
locotrone, Ypsilanti, Creveto, and the Bey of Maina,
have divided the sovereignty of it. The two first
govern despotically in the districts of Argolis and
Achaia, and the two last in Messenia and Naialli de
Malvasia. The inhabitants feel the burden of thip
Dictatorship, without promising themselves any ad-
vantage from it. If at the beginning the insurrec-
tion had excited some hopes in the body of the people,
the most simple see at length that the only object
now is tht advantage or security of a small number
of military adventurers, from whom nothing is to be
expected but the indefinite prolongation of the general
misery; for nobody believes that, even with the most
obstinate resistance, they can finally hold out against
the Turkish power, but people tremble at the miseries
which they may bring upon the country in the
meantime and before the unequal contest is ended.
At al) events the issue of the war in Albania and
Epirus is an event very decisive of the fate (f the
Peninsula and all Greece. The Porte was early sen-
sible that its first care should be to secure thoie im-
portant Provinces, which are one of the keys to its
European dominions; and whether it were directed
in this point by the advice of enlightened persons, or
guided merely by a right judgment, it did not at-
tempt any great measure against the Morea before it
had conquered Ali Pacha, whom it justly considered
as its most dangerous enemy.

Since his destruction, it has had, in fact, none to
fear from the Suliots—a nation small in numbers, in-
habiting a barren caontry, but the bravest of all these
tribes. Even in the lifetime of Ali, ChOurschid Pacha
had gained over the Suliots to the Porte: the violent
and imprudent measures of the Generals command-
ing under him lost this advantage, and the war broke.
'out anew. The most enlightened among the chiefs
of the insurgents bad founded their greatest hopes on
this diversion. But the Suliots have at length been
forced to yield to the Turks, whom it would not now
be an easy task to drive from Epirus.
The accounts from Zante, as well as all those which
have reached us, assert in the most positive manner
that no European Power bas taken, in the most in-
direct manner, any part in the operations of the
Turkish army. A strict scrupulous neutrality has
been observed on all sides. The Turks have, in truth,
not asked for any aid, and their pride and distrust
would certainly have prevented them from accepting
it: English vessels, on board otte of which was Mr.
,green, the Vite Consul, experienced at the beginning
of this month, some difficulty on entering the Gulf
of Lepanto, because they would not submit to he
visited as requested by the Turkish 'Authorities. The
Austrian flag has been everywhere respected, but there
has also been no ground for complaint against it.
The Constitutiounei, among other ridiculous nen- i
sations, reproaches the Austrian Observer, first, with
having, in accounts from Corfu of the 13th of Au-
gust, stated the reduction of Suli .; secondly, of having
spoken, in the course of last winter, of a convention
between Chourschid and the Suliots-; and thirdly, of
having stated, three months ago, that Chourschid had
made himself master of the fortress of Suli, and there
taken a grandson of Ali prisoner. It adds, that one
of these statement is asill•founded as the other.
