'This place had for Itsdefence only a ditch, which Ma-
rocordatos had recently dug across the Inn causeway
which leads to the town. Pi fteen hundred Greeks, corn-
; manned by the same Manrocordatos, and the intrepid
' Bowls, constantly repulsed from this intrenchment all
the attacks of the Turks with considerable loss. The
'enemy then wiled his attention on Anatolicon, a little
;island placed in the midst oldie Lagunes and the arm
' of the sea of Alissolonglii, hut ()alarm, at the head of
five hundred men, stationed on this island, defeated all
.these attempts.
; • After these 111 fated operations, Omer Pacba marched
on the pass of Maki-Scala to open a passage, and eats-
communications with Lepanto. I'he two Stratarchs
Mims an 4 Zongoa, who defended the defile, attacked
'hint with vigonr, made 700 Albanians bite the dust, and
threw the rest into a complete rout.
'Things were In this state when the Oreeke received
'reinforerisentv from the canton of Agrapha 'and the en-
',lrons of Thermonyhe. They then attacked the enemy
'on November 17, not far from Stennis'. At first the
'forks tinstained the attack with great vigourrbut at
length Bonarts and Zongos, who commanded the wings
of the Greek army, brought forward their corps, and by
most nnhoateti attack on the flanks of the enemy, de-
cided the fortune of the day. The greatest disorder
immediately prevailed in the Turkish artily, which from
hthat moment sought its safety in flight. Pursued as
far as the Acheions, they lost a great number of men
In that river, who were drowned in attempting to
cross it.
The Turks were then harrassed in their way to /Val-
nania, where they met with more losses. Pinafly,they ar-
rived in the very worst condition at Vlichs, near Awry-
noros, from where they re-entered Epirus.
• P. S. (Dec. 4.)—Wire have received to-day from Pre-
fees and Janina the news of a Capidi-bachl having ar-
rived at Larissa, and caused the head of Cliourselild
Pacha to be cnt off, Another Capidi-bachh; arrived at
Janina, has declared Omer Pacha to be dismissed from
his parhalic of Lower Albania, to which the Divan has
appointed an Asiatic, Pacha, called Abed-Paclia. It is
added, that Oiner's head is to be cut orlon his arrival at
Janina. The same Capilli-bachi is appointed to conduct
the Albanian Chiefs to Constantinople, and particularly
Talaic-Albas, Ilago-Aloshoutlar, Selielitaret Bekir-Zoda-
doro. The latter, a ho commands at Peeves., has already
replied to the Capidi-bachi who came to arrest him, by,
several shot, and has declared against the Porte.
The same Turkish officer has brought three firmans;
the first exacts from all the inhabitants the silver vessels
at very low prices; the second imposes a contribution of
the Canton of Janina; • contribution of 400 purses,
200,000 piastres for the repairs of some strong place
which is not named; the third obliges the former inha-
bitants of Janina to leave all their places of refuge, to
return into the town.

[ILITRACT OF A rA/VATt LITTIM]
K Choarschid Packs, suspected of having plundered
the treasures of the famous Ali Paella, of Janina, has
just forfeited his bead, in consequence of this accusation,
whether just or not. A Capidgi.bachi, who *rested at
Larissa oa the 16tIrot November with a Firmer 'from
his Highness, was present at the execution of thitiVisier,
who was long the pride of his master. He was worthy of
a better fate.
" By another Finnan. Omer His, Pads& ofJanina'
formerly tiktenant Mi nebelin, is dismissed, and r
summoned to Constantinople, to give an account of the
treasures of Ali, and to receive, (it is said,) a command
in the army destined to set against the Persians. It is
already known as Certain, that be will not obey this
order ; hot no one knows where he can find an asylum,
except in the 'onion Isles, for the Albanians are touch
exasperated against him.
" Another Firman enjoins TabinAbas, Pheinof Parr
mythi, and Hagalloultartfa, (the 'l' f Alt) to
appear at Constantinople ; instead of complying with
this mandate, these Chief. declared themselves in open
insurreetioa. A C'apidgi-hash', who was seat to Peeves*,
to bring away the head of Bekir Gioeador, commandant
of that place, was tired at and compelled to retreat.
Epirus may thus be considered as aprey to anarchy, for
the Acroeerstinians, who hitherto were tranquil, have
just proclaimed their independence."

the 28th January.
We have received by an estraordinavy conveyance,
the Spanish Journals of the 23d, arrived on the 24th.
In the first there is nothing of importance; in the second
as well as in the private letters,we do not 'find any thing,
to justify the report which one of the Evening Paper*
reported yesterday, and which several' of oar Journiis•
copied this morning. At the departure of thee'iltritle

Letters from Madrid state, that the communications
between the Foreign Powers mild our Government are
very 'Wive, nothing of which has as yet transpired.
Penniman., Dec. 21.—The snow has not ceased fall-

passable.
NYCIIRDA, Dec, f2.—We are now certain that Fleyres
and Valere, after having been driven from Campredon
and all its environs, have taken refuge in France.

[FROM THE GAZETTE DE TR %NCB, DEC. 3i.1
Amongst the persons spoken•of to be Ambassador to
England, is the Duke de Felix James.
BAYONNE., DEC. It.—General Torrigo;, with 3,000'
men, coming from Paropaluna, has struck terror into the
army of Faith, which has retreated on our frontiers, but
on their arriving at Aotnbiers, they received orders to
march for Arragon, to join the remains of the army of
Baron d'Erotes.

O'Donsel, abandoned by most of his is esk who have
returned home again, has himself quitted all the posi-
tions he occupied in Navarre, divktiag his fair ruralis-
ing troops into small parties.
I LLTIIIA, Dec. 11.—Lord Stranglhrd, Ambassador to
the Porte, arrived here from the Congress. A report
prevails that the Turkish General is authorised to offer
an armistice tithe Greeks.

Before we received the above intelligence, the follow-
ing artkk wet, as an American elitor would say,

type :
We have received Paris papers to the 31st instant,
from which we have, in the preceding part of our paper.
inserted copious extracts. They contain, besides, a va-
riety of speculations on the tendency of the official note
of the French► Cabinet, and on the stability of the pre-
sent Ministry. Private letters confidently state that,
midi the exception of the appointment of Viscount Cita-
Tiaubriand to once vacated by the Date of Mont-
morency, the Ministry will remain as it was. They add,
with respect to the great question which has already
nosed so much agitation in the public mind, that the
decision in favour of war or peace now depended entirely
upon Spain, rind that the return of the messenger who
had carried the French note to Madrid was expected
with the greatest anxiety. Conceiving that the grand
result will turn on the events which may occur
at Madrid. some journalists give out that that
capital has been in a state of great agitation. The
(Notidienne, as will be wen in another column, ascribes
the disorder to the King's refusing to sanction the De-
cree of the Cortes respecting the a tof the conspi-
rators. The story, however. is treated by other jour -
naiists as a fabrication ; and it is not very likely that
the King's refusal, which was known on the 17th tilt
did not produce, till the 22d, any of the effects now im-
puted to it. Between the dates above mentioned various
couriers had left Madrid for Paris, who stated on their
srri►al that that city when they set off was perfectly
tranquil.—Public attention is again called by fresh cir-
cumstancei to the state of affairs in the East. On these
we have extracted in another column various articles
which will be read with interest.A growing jealousy of
the aims and powers of Russia appears to be taken place
among the partisans of the British Ministers, and with
whatever indifference the cause of Greece had been
hitherto regarded by them, something now, they
say, ought to) be done in its behalf. This is the
language of the day, even in that staunch supporter of
' legitimacy,the New Times.

The domestli'diews In the Debits papers received this
morning, relates chiefly to the Addresses preparing to be
presented to the Lord Lieutenant. Resides those previously
mentioned, we find the parishes of St. NichoissWithont, St.
Mark. St.Catbarine, St. Andrew, St. John, and St. Anne,
have held meetings for this purpose, which have been very
ntmeroesly attended. A meeting has also been held with
the same stew, of the members of the Chamber of Com-
merce. The country appears to be remarkably tranquil. In-
deed, says the Potilin Evening Post of Saturday ; there Is
not a paragraph to the Provincial Papers that we think It
peceseary'to extract.

.DISTRESStS OF THE COUNTRY.
Coming to-day •( Lei?! January)from London to Scole,
we perceive that the);44ese• has reached even the fea-
thered creation, who appear at this time, to be much
better representatives of the nation than others who
we have sometimes heard (in jest, we soppose) called its
representatives. The larks are assembled in great flocks i
upon the snow (which covers the ground in Suffolk) and
holding their meetings, apparently to bethink them how
they shall obtain a relief from their distresses. This
'race, all in one dress, and without a 'Arum of other
birds, seem to be petting out their feeble pipings in
I imitation of the farmers. The irsrrows, chaffinches,

coveys of partridges, from eight to a dozen in the covey,
bitting out in the middle of the field, upon the bare snow,
seeming to bra cabinet commit, not knowing very well
what to do with the concern. There was little movement
amongst them. They must have found themselves as if
in a new world; the greater part of them have serer
known the Nee before : no more do they know what to
do in the fields of snow than another council that we
could name if we chose, know whet to do with landlord*
wittiest gents and tenants withost capital.
