London, Feb. l.
Advces OF alrecent date have reached
town from the Morea, which throw some
light on the progress of the warfare be-
tween The Turks and Greeks. Disputes
appear 10 have arisen among the latter,
portion of whom had proposed to declare
Prince Demetrlus Ypsllanti, King OF Pc
loponnesus.
This project, however found many op.
poHents a, the head OF whom was Greek
chleftain, named Roboini, who supported
the establishment of Republic. 1t was
supposed that this difference might lead TO
serious and disastrous consequences, and
that one body Of the Greeks might even
take up arms against the other,
Prince YpsIanti was himself at Argos to-
! wards the close OF Dec where be possessed
! very considerable force; the garrison a.
mounted to from 5000 10 1000 men. A.
mother leader OF distinction, named Colco-
trini, was also there ,,havIng come from Pa
tras which was attacked by the Turkish
| vessels of war. By sea, we do not find
that the Greeks have gained any recent adj
vantage of importance.
The accounts before US do not supply a.
| ny materials, from which an accurate
| judgement can pc formed OF the total MIL
italy | rec of the Greeks in the MoTea,
Their naval strength is also, Tor the same
reason, beyond calculation, but large
number of armed vessels were cruizing in
| the neighbourhood OF Argos. An English
| vessel near Napoii had been fired upon by
them, and would probably have been cap
tured, bu. for the unexpected appearance
of the CambrIan British frigate in the Of
| fng.-The Greeks abandoned the alta OK,
and were endeavoring to make Oft, but they
were detained by the Cambrisn, the cap
tain of which insisted upon being inform,
ed why the attack had been made. The
| Greeks could give no satisfactory &C
count of the transaction. What was the
| result we are not informed.
| At Napoii di Romano the inhabitants
were in total ignorance of the state of the
war between the Greeks and the Turks;
tbty had no communication with Constan-
| :inople tor some months.
One ofthe principal points dwelt upon in
these letters, is the preparations making by
the Turks to reduce Corinth; 40 army for
this purpose had been dispatched from
ConstaDtinople and was expected to arrive
in few days. The garrison was not very
well provided tor defence Courier.
A letter from Lisbon, dated Jan. I2, says,
'Perelra de Carno lately made motion
which is supported by all the Americans in
the Cortes; its object is to declare the port
OF Lisbon free tor Brazil productions, and
to repeal all the custom house regulations
which embarrass the trade between Portu-
gal and Portuguese America. Portugal
would thus become the great entrepot for
our colonies"
