AusTranam, JULY 3.,--Accounts from Batavia np to
'dm 81st of January, Which give further details of the
damage done by the several eruptions of the mountain
Ater Apia. From thee details if appears that three had
been an extraordinary rise in the rivers which bad over-
flowed their banks, and carried away the bridges ; this was
psrtlyowing to long continued verybeavy rains, and partly
to their course being impeded by thastones,ite. proceeding
front the eruptions of the Mountain. On the sth the rivers
Pabelsa and others, swelled in an extraordinary degree,
and brought down with thee vast quantities of stones
and burning hot mud, while Mer Apie again emitted fire
accompanied with a dreadful noise.
On the 3rd and 4th there were violent earthquakes in
the valley of Sello. Several Destas.near Sello, were lee-
essible, because the valley of ()rimming. which was
300 fathom deep, has been changed into a mountain, and

Accounts Teethed at Batavia from Pangerang, Said
Hassan Habeshi, who was sent with some letters and pre-
sents, from, the Dutch Governor General of India
to the Prince:of Siam, announced his arrival there on the

" The Turks of Zectouni foreseeing tbat they should
not be able this year to maintain themselves's their town
have killed all the Christians without distinction of ag;
or sex, and set bre to the town in several places before
they left it. Their savage bands retired towards [Arian
we are at a loss to explain the motives of this proceed-
Lug."
All Greece as far as Pharsalia is evacuated by the
Barbarians; a great part of Macedonia is in insurrec-
tion; at least it seems certain that the proclamation of
the wise Hegomesos Theocticus have in•inced the
peasants of Roast Pelion and Ossa to rise ins body.

On the other side it is said that the defiles of Pindus,
leading to Epirus, are in possession of the Insurgents.
Decisive events are at hand, and to us there seems no
doubt that Greece, properly so called, will be free this
year.

New York Papers to the 10th of Jane have arrived this
morning, by which we learn that official accounts had
reached Caraccas that a division of Morales army,
which had entered Coro, had been entirely defeated. A
Postscript in the Columbian of 21st May, announces the
important intelligence of the capture of the Fortress
of San Carlos, and consequently the Lake and city of Mara-
caibo. A Bogota paper, which contains an serount7of the
opening of the Columbian Congress, repeats the state_
ment that one of the first acts of the Congress was ex
petted to be to recognize the loan contracted in England"

A Flanders Mail arrived this morning with Papers
from Hamburg!) to the 2d, and from Brussels to the
sth instant, extracts from which are given in our sub-
sequent columns. They notice some recent sets of cruelty
committed by the Turks, and annoance that all Greece,

rians.

BRUNSWICK, Jews 26.—According to a Decree dated
Carlton-House„ the 6th of this month, and published here
on the 25th, the Regency of the Duchy of Brunswick is
to cease on the 30th of October, this year, and the Go.
remittent to be given into the hands of his Serest
Highness Prince Charles, our reigning Duke. an erect
sthich will be highly gratifying to the inhabitants of
Brunswick.

FRONTIERS OF MOLDAVIA, Junelo.—The intended re.
d actions in the Russian army are expected shortly to be
rarried into effect. The Omperor, on his tour to view
the 2d army, will pass through Moscow. It is thought
that Count Wittgenstein, the Commander-in-Chief of
that army, will have another more important command.
In this case General Itaguisky will, doubtless, succeed
him.

.....
The Russian Consul General Mineseiki, and the
Russian Post-Office of Moldavia, still remain at Iler-
manstadt. It is not observed that any ➢reparations are

Zea, May I9.—A knee, a kind of decked bark, wbick
left Tateula yesterday evening with a cargo of women
and children who had escaped the sword of the Mussel-
men,lives the following account:—

two singular points of defence of their opposition to the
general feeling.. They say, first that the people of Eng-
land caring little, or n,thing, for the result, will sub-
scribe but little; and that whatever may be subscribed
