BRUSSELS, SEPTE/tIBER 7.

The King of England is expected in this Capital
on the 18th 44 this month. His Majesty will occupy
the Hotel of the British Ambassador, Lord Clancarty.
His Lordship will remove for the time to the Duke
of Wellington Hotel. The presence of his Britannic
Majesty will give occasion to numerous fetes, and
certainly to a great concourse of strangers.

VIENNA, AUGUST 27.
It is affirmed that the Archduke Ferdinand, Go-
vernor-General of Hungary, will have the chief com-
mand of all the troops forming our Army of Obser-
vation on the eastern frontier. The strength of this
army has been exaggerated : it will not exceed
60,000 men at present; the case would be different
if war should break out ; for then, even if Austria
took no part in it, the army would be probably aug-
mented to double its actual force. Opinions here are
more than ever divided on the subject of peace and
war. The arrival of every new Courier causes a
change of opinion. It is certain that our Govern-
ment does its utmost to prevent war. The people of
Vienna, as well at the Austrians in general, take
a lively interest in the fate of the Greeks If the Go-
vernment allowed it, there would be already nu-
merous associations in their favour. The Greek mer-
chants at Vienna eagerly refute the reports contained
in some Paners, of the cruelties exercised by the
Greeks against the Tut These accounts are, if we
believe them, mere fictions.

A Declaration of the Cabinet of the Thuilleries is
spoken of; but which, far from being alarming, fur-
nishes a new proof of the prudence and perspicuity
of the present Government of France. On the other
hand, an extraordinary activity prevails in our Cabi-
net. Our resolution is taken with regard to Turkey.
Our relations with Russia are most amicable; and
we shall at all events make common cause with
that Power. However, we must think of maintain-
ing peace with the rest of Europe. To this effect,
fresh instructions have been sent to Prince Esteihazy,
at London, who, under the present circumstances,
will double his zeal ; and it is not considered likely
that England will fail to be convinced of the sin-
cerity of our friendship. The Declaration of France,
as we have said, is not at all alarming. Besides, as
the assistance of our Cabinet may be depended upon
to maintain the balance of Europe, we are less em-
barrassed about the fate of Turkey than about the
form of Government to be given to the Greek Pro-
vinces which may be delivered from the Turkish
power. Conjectures are endless, and, among other
projects spoken of, some politicians are for forming
'.7rreece into a confederation of small States like that
of Germany. The re-establishment of the Order of
Malta is vial talked of.

general permission, as the Government cannot take
then). The Turkish squadron, which sailed a few
weeks ago from the Dardanelles, has not, as far as I
can le.n•n, yet done anything very decisive. One of
their first movements was for Samos, to inflict some
punishment on the rebelli, us inhahitatas that
►shrnd. It was supposed that it would have been
necessary for th:►t purpose to bring away the Asiatic
troops (12,000 or 13,000 men) from Scala Nuova;
but as soon as the fleet was discerned from Samos,
the people became so much alarmed, that they seat
out offers of submission, which ss ere received, on
condition of their deliver ing lip to the Turks the
ringleaders in the revolt. This was done, and the
affair ended in that way, the fleet remaining but a
very few days before Samos; from whence they
sailed for the island of Rhodes, with the view of ef-
fecting a junction with a small fleet sent up to that
quarter by the Pacha of Egypt.
It consisted of fifteen or sixteen armed ships, though
not of large burden, and the Rhodians themselves
are asserted very confidently to have contributed four
armed vessels as auxiliaries to the Turkish squadron.
With this accession of strength, which will be fully
adequate, with tolerable discretion and common naval
tactics, to meet any force the Greeks can bring against
them, they next sailed, according to the advices last
received, for Prevesa, where they gained a further
addition to their fors., by falling in with the squadron
under the command of the Capitana Bey, which
consists of sixteen sail, from frigates downwards; and
it is supposed that the whole have before this time
*returned to the Archipelago.
I mentioned above, that the submission of the in-
habitants of Samos had rendered the removal of the
Asiatic troops from Scala Nuova unnecessary. This
led to a scene of a most terrible description. Dis-
appointed in the hope they had entertained of being
permitted to share in the plunder of Samos, they
commenced a series of the greatest excesses upon
the Christians at Scala Nuova, in the course of which
600 or 700 of them are said to have fallen victims.
The only shelter that presented itself to those who
were exposed to the first fury of the soldiery was the
castle, to which all that could fled. Others were re-
ceived in the house of the Turkish Cadi, and among
the latter fugitives was the English Vice-Consul hint-
self, who, being a Greek by birth, durst not trust for
protection to his official character.
I should have tr•ld you, that when the Turkish Ad-
miral sailed from the island of Samos, he thought it
prudent to leave behind him at Scala •Nuova a num-
ber of transports, about eight or ten. These had not
been long stationed there, when the Greek fleet, nearly
an hundred vessels strong, of which ten were fire-
ships, came down to the relief of Samos, which it
was concluded would at least have been able to main-
tain a short contest with the Turks. As they found
the business there wholly terminated, they proceeded
to Scala Nuova. When the Turkish crews of the
transports perceived them approaching, they set them
on fire to prevent their falling into their hinds, and
went on shore.
The state of Smyrna, respecting which all here
have latterly felt great anxiety, is known here up to
the 3d of this month, when everything was tranquil
and in quiet order. None of the Greeks had been
killed, or in any way molested, for several days past;
in consequence of which, they had felt their confi-
dence revive, so far as to open their shops, and they
were seen parading the streets with as much gaiety
as if nothing had happened. Except the French,
they have muse levity of character, and suffer sooner
the traces of great calamities to disappear from their
minds, than any nation in the civilized world.
The merchants at Smyrna are a good deal puzzled
to ascertain what effect a war with Russia will have
upon their commerce. My own opinion is, that it
will go on in nearly the same way as usual, and not
be much affected either one way m the other. The
great point on which reliance is at present placed for
the preservation of tranquillity at Smyrna is the vi-
gour of the Executive Authority, which punishes with
the utmost severity and promptitude those Turks de-
tected in the commission of any disorders or outrage.
Some merchants of eminence have been apprehended
at Smyrna, in consequence of' a suspicion of partici-
pating in the insurrection. Among them are Stephano
Ralli, Omero Popoli, and Omero Danagidi. They
were sent off in custody for Constantinople.
I perceive some additional facts in my letters from
Smyrna relating to the naval operations of the Turks
and the Greeks. When the Turkish fleet got under
sail from Samos, it steered for the southward in se-
parate divisions, one of which falling in with the
Greek fleet, and considering themselves overmatched,
went into Stanchio about the 2f3th of last month,
where the Greeks, being unable to get at them, or
fearing to come within cannon-shot, sent in hrur of
their fire-ships to set one of the Tut kish line of battle
ships on fire. On this occasion a very bold exploit
was performed by the Turkiii Cummauder, Cara
Ali, who sent out his launches for the purpose of
towing the burning ships to a ►iisiance. Ile succeeded
with three of them by the courage of his crews,
though in danger every moment of being blown into
the air. The fourth they even ventured to board, and
extinguished the match that was to coin inlaticate with
a train of gunpowder for the explosion of the vessel.
The Admiral, in his dispatches, is said to speak of
