to drive Redschid Pdcha from before the city of Athens.
P. Mayromichalis is to have the chief command. It

was the Generals themselves destined for the expedition
that demanded it from Government. Mavromichalis
is not an experienced soldier, but his devotedness to his
country since the Greek revolution commenced has
procured him great influence over the hearts of all his
countrymen. These auxiliaries were to leave the plains
of Argos on the 27th of September, and we expect that
they are now in Attica. The army has for its cons-
wanders the bravest Generals--Nicetas, Londos, C.
Mavromichalis, &c. and it is composed of the most ex-
perienced soldiers in all the Peloponnessug. The ex-
pedition, however. would not, for want of provisions,
have taken place, notwithstanding the enthusiasm of all
the men composing it, had not a hippy event supplied
it with what was necessary in time. Six vessels, which
a great wind h separated from the Greek squadron.
and dispersed in the waters of Candia, were, on•tbe 18th
of last month, near Suds, and were preparing to return
to join the Greek fleet, when they suddenly perceived
four vessels in the open sea. they immediately set sail,
and overtook them in the waters between Candia and
Cerigo. One of the latter, which was a brig of war,
opposed the Gie. ks, in order that the other three, which
were only transports laden with provisions, might have
time to escape. The Greeks fell upon it impetuously,
chased att, and took two of the transports. They after-
wards returned to the island of Hydra, where they dig.
charged one ; the other was sent to Nauplia.
The Greek camp in Attica, too, had been in want of
provisions, but Colonel Fabvier, 11l fortified the penin-
sula of Methana, and provisioned it well by means of
the Philhellenists of Europe, being reconciled to General
Karaiskaki, caused a great quantity of provisions to be
transported into Attica.
We are informed, bx letter, that Omer Pacha, of
Negropont, has.left the camp of Redschid Pacha to go
and appease some troubles which have broken out in the
island of Eubsea. It was Cantano that entered this

island, with the intention of making a diversion, and
giving the Greeks time to execute their plans.
The Capitan Pacha was still at Fokies, em the26th of
September, and had brought tO workmen from Smyrna
to repair, the damage done to the Turkish fleet in the
last naval battle. These workmen, the most part of
whom are Europeans. told Topal Pacha that the injury
sustained by the two frigates, which they were employed
to repair principally, was so great, that it wbutd be
neces ary to rebuild them completely if they intended
makMg further use of them.
Thii circumstance lug greatly annoyed the Greek
Admiral, who had resolved to blockade the island of
Hydra, and to force it to surrender before Lord Coch-
rane appeared in the Areiipelago with his steam boats.
Redschid Paella; in order to induce the Albani ,ns to
take up arms against the Greeks, proposed to Hussim
of Avlona, to come wit'i 2000 men and occupy
I'Nfi.solonglai and the fortress of Neupacte (Lepanto) ;
but this Albanian Chief, well knowing the object of
such an offer, excused himself on account of his advanced
age and bad state of his health, which would not allow
him to be-absent so far from his family, who hai need
of his presence and protrction mole than ever. Being
disappointed in this attempt, Redschid Pacha wrote in
the same terms to the nephew of Joussouf, Sam's. of
Ali Tebelen, who had among his countrymen a high
reputation for bravery ; but a month has already passed,
and, according to letters from Janina, it would appear
that this Albanian, though enterprising and courageous,
has not yet succeeded in enrolling under his banners
hundred Albanians. These latter, v. ho it was greatly
feared, after the fall of Missololglii, would fall on At-
tica, prove more and more by their conduct that they
behold the success of the Greeks with pleasure, and are
disposed to make common cause with them if more fa-
vourable circumstances would enable them to mold
their domains to the frontiers of Albania.

The King of Sweden has addressed the following
letter to the Countess 1). Engestrom, who inhabits Jan-
kowitz, near Pozen :
4. Madame Countess of Engestrom—Your letter of
the 29th of August, in which you announce the death
of your husband, gives me very lively pain. You hue
yourselfliad an opportunity of knowing my esteem and
friendship for the deceased, and you can, therefore,
judge of my regret for him. This regret all Sweden
participates in, and honours in him the virtues of a man
and of a citizen. Ties of kindred must render this loss
doubly severe to you and your family, but I am coo.
vineed that you will bear with courage and resignation
the will of the MOST HIGII I Ido sincerely share in
your sorrow, withAut having any pretensions to be able
to mitigate it. Time alone can produce such an effect,
seconded by reflection, which will present to you power-
ful motives of consolation, by retracing the splendid
course which Monsieur. Engestrom has passed through,
the recollection ft by him in the breasts of all those
who knew him, and, in fine, the immutable laws of
Nature, according to which, as he bad attained a happy
old age, he could not hope to live much longer with
you. To my best wishes for your own happiness...to
which I shall always feel a pleasure in contributing, I
join, Madame. Countess of Engestrom, the repeated
assurance of my invariable good will.

PARIS, NOYIDOES 5.
The Journal de Toulouse gives a melancholy account
of the destruction caused in the vicinity of Montrejeu,
by the overflowing of Me rivers Nest and the Garonne,
on the 27th of last month. It seems that, frcm a great
fall of rain, and snow with which the tops of the Py-
renees are covered, these.rivers in a moment became so
swollen as to overflow the 'plains to a great extent on
each side of their course. The mischief occasioned was
frightful—the people took refugenn the house tops from
the fury of the inundation, and ony persons perished,
besides a great deal of cattle. Bridges and houses were
dashed to pieces by the torrent, and dead carcasses of
every species were seen floating on every side with the
torrent. The city'of St. Beat has suffered very much.

Tuesday morning, the gam maul upset near Maiden-
head. The coachman and guard were thrown off their
seats without being hurt, and only one of tour inside
passetagers was bruised.
