A Pamphlet has jest appeared under the title ofl
" War in Greece," which, independent of the interest
naturally associated with its subject, will be read with
delight by the enthusiast in the Greek cause, and with
information by all. The author reasons with no com-
mon stock of acquaintance with military tactics, and
particularly as applying to a war of defence, upon the
'means to be used by the Greeks in order to bring the
mighty conflict for their liberties to a successful ter-
mioation. He first treats of the Greek character in
I the earlier ages, and gives an energetic description of
the present state of that unhappy people. An inter-
esting comparison is then israwn between the moral
and physical powers possessed by the Greeks and those
of,,their barbarous oppressors.
eithe 41seeks it is said--
• Ist. They are far more numemensikesitheir enemies.
ed. They possess equal courage.
ad. They possess the greatest part of the country, and
Anew large tracts! and some islands where the Turk,
eves in the day of his strength, never could penetrate ;
and these form so many impregnable fortresses from
which to draw supplies.
4th. The Greeks have sailors, the Turks have none.
nth. The machine of Turkish Government has, in all
its subordinate parts, been worked by Greeks, and will
go on badly without them.
6th. The Greeks are better informed on all subjects
than the Turks.
7th. They fight, not for civil and religious freedom
alone, but for existence ; extirpation is certain if they are
defeated • whereas the Turks have Asia Minor to retreat
into, and only fight for a province belonging to their
Sovereign.
Bth. The best troops the Sultan bad in his army,
are amongst those Greeks now in arms against him ;
and-
9th. The Turkish army may 'have courage and arms,
bet nothing else, and is not entitled to the name of
an army; it is a numerous banditti, so had. that the
Int Emperor lost his life by n attempt to restore
discipline; and introduce the Euaropean system among
the Janissaries.
Against these sine advantages, may be placed those on
the side of the Turks.
let. They have an established goiernment.
2d. They hold most of the fortresses.
M. The Sultan may have great command of money if
be acts wisely.
4th. He has greater means of forging arms and mak-
tetg gunpowder. A total ignorance of the art of war,
sad a complete want of discipline, is a disadvantage
ottnniton to both Greeks and Turks; but the former have
the advantage of being aware of thei r i gnorance, and eager
Is remedy the defect. This feeling is a host of str•ng
tlrt
on their side. Thug "nine" points are in favor of the
Greeks, and " four" against them : the matter them re-
selves itself into this. The Greeks mart labour with
energy to gain the ascendency in the four points of their
seas, and to maintain it in the nine of their strength:
bow to do this is not Client, to %hew ; it consists its the
formation of a civil and a military government : tbe first
to draw forth and regulate the resources of the country.
the second to wield them.
The author then proceeds to argue upon the mea-
sures which should be adopted for the organisation
and discipline of the armies, and their subsequent plans
of operation. Admitting at the outset that Greece has
nothing to hope for, either from subscriptions or loans
raised in foreign countries, he considers what they are
best able to effect unassisted, and what cheap modes
of warfare are best suited to them. lie particularly
recommends the use of the pike, which when opposed
to the Turkish musket, which has no bayonet, would
be irresistable. He makes out with apparent perspi-
enity that even in case of reverses in their conflict with
the Turks, the Greeks might fall back upon the
Isthmus of Corinth without the fear of pursuit for dis-
turbance in that strong hold of their country. It is
coulitnted that the numbers of the Greeks, together
with the facilities afforded on the spot for masonry,
would enable them to throw up in less than one week
a bastioned line extending from ,ea to sea, that would
render this frontier so impenetrable, as to defy the
whole strength of the Turkish empire. All this part•
of the pamplet is replete with sound reasoning and
gratifying information; but when the author subse-
quently enters into certain speculations about electing
AR Pacba, or young Napoleon to the Sovereignty of
a new Greek empire, we must think lie is not so for-
tunate. To consolidate the advantages which their
heroism may yet acquire by delivering the glorious
land of their fathers from the most ferocious tyranny
that ever stained the earth, the Greeks mast act with
calmness and caution ; always bearing in mind that
they have a neighbour who will not look with a less
jealous eye towards their country, because it is free
and prosperous, and that they may at some time want
assistance and protection against him.
