ALIZANDRIA,Auca. i7.—Letters from Alexandria say,
the satisfactory result of Major Cradock's mission to this
country has been confirmed to us from weber authentic
sources, though it is certainly not the Pacha's intention at
present to declare himself independent of the Porte, as
asserted in the Ft ench Papers, nor to take the initiative
in withdrawing horn the contest with. the Greeks,
before the Grand Seignior has manifested his inten-
tions in this respect. Indeed, it could never have
been expected by the British Government, that the
DACHA could so far compromise his reputation with the
Turkish nation, as openly to set so bad an example, in
what is considered by the bulk of the people in the light
of a religions warfare. The Mary, SNAITH, arrived
safely last night under convoy of the Gannet, which
vessel has been fortunate enough to capture and send
into Malta two ef. the most actiie-Greek pirates, a
schooner and a brig, manned with SO and 90 men. On
board one of them was found the entire cargo of a
Maltese brig, plundered a few days before.

that Ate businesr transacted was sufficiently apparent
to bripire much hope for the better. It may be

seven horses, and, attended by five men and two
women, will prepare as much grain for the market iu
one day, as could be produced by manual labour in
a fortnight or three weeks. Wheat remains still low:
Wheat, in dry condition, from 52 to 56; ditto, raw,

AWFUL FIRE ON BOARD A STEAM-BOATb
LAST NIGHT.

On Monday last a very fine steam boat, the Irresiari,
ble (one of those vessels built by subscription, for the
purpose of aiding the Greeks against the Turks, and
intended to be seat net-immediately to Lord Cochran.),
left Limehouse for the first -time, on an experimental
trip to the Note, and back again. She went on mini.
rably ; but unfortunately, when returning e
theytowahraddr
Limehonse, close alongside a place called the Halfway
House, near Gravesend, at six o'clock last night, she
was discovered to have caught fire. This eilansitous
event was occasioned by the store coals having been
ipglanciteedd,nueoaperr tocethiveefldubesy oafnythpeetbsooinleroso, uhoard,
and
was
not discovered until the fl tales burst fork against the
ides of the vessel. Every effort was made by all parties
on board to prevent the further action of the fire,but on
happily without success, as the flames spread with such
alarming rapidity, fore and aft, that all endeavours to
subdue the violence of the blaze, notwithstanding the
quantity of water expeditiously supplied by men in
boats, that moved off from the shore to the assistance
of the crew proved unsuccessful. The fiery element
continued its devastating course until nine o'clock lie
night, when the steam vessel was nearly buret to the
water's edge. Two of the men on board were sevetely
scalded in their efforts to secure the steam boiler, ka
from explosion, in which endeavour they were providni.
tially successful. The steam boat was valued at between
9,0001. and 10,0001.
