" Since I bad the honour to pop yhur Excellency I have been
informed, on unquestionable autheilty, that some Turks taken
pdioners by the Greek troops, and brought a few days ago, to the

a red hot iron, by °edit of the Commander who had taken them.
My presence here, and the public character which T still hold as
Ambassador to the Porte, make it my duty frankly to state to
your Excellency the piinful feeling* excited in me by an action so
contrary to the established sedges of war, and to the laws of
heornity. Jabal! be tnuelrebliged to your Excellency to Inform
me of the measures whkb you undoubtedly intend to take to show
your displeasure at such an act of barbarism, and to prevent its
repetitiOn.

Count Capo d'lstrla, in his reply, expresses hisvorrow at the
above deplorable actions—says that be has already taken urea.
sum to prevent a repetition of such cruelties. and subjoins two
official reports. The first is a rer.rt to the President for the Com-
mission of the department of the Western Spored's, dated lilies,
Nov. 20, stating the arrival of SS Turkish prisoners, some ot whom
were branded: they had been sent from Kits° Tamen& The
Commissioner says that the Greeks and Turks, like the heroes of
the Iliad, before they begin the attack, provoked each other by re•
proaches and threats. This took plate between the Rey of Pretties
and Mavens. The first signified to the Greek Chief that if he ven-
tured to come near him, and fell alive into his hands, be would
cause him to be . Teavelb replied that be would do well to
run away, for if be took him, or his soldiers, be would have them
branded on the forehead. The chance of war favoured our troops.
I add, that no 011icer was branded, and the mark on the forehead
of the soldiers is so slight that In • kw days no trace of It Will
remain.

The other report is from D. Ypsilanti, stating his occupation of
Ursdia.—Drosseis Popov. Jemmy 14.
