Smyrna Papers
SMYRNA, Feb. 8.-Wc have accounts
from the Morca to the 2Gth Janrary.-
They announce an important success Of the
Greeks. On the evening of Christmas,
Omer Pacha, with several thousand men
in the dead Of the night, made All attack
on Mi5solonghl, IN the hope Of taking it by
surprise as he expected the Greeks would
be engaged in their. religious services in
their churches; and an Albanian Aga sue
ceeded IN planting the standard If the
trescent on the ramparts 5; but he was
soon killed. The Greeks having expected
the attack, were fully prepared to meet il,
and It was repulsed with great vigor. The
Turks retired from the attack and the
Greeks, on the next day, surprised the
Turkish camp, Il took it. Twelve pieces of
cannon, all the munitions ofwar, &c fell into
the hands OF the conqucrors, who, without
experiencing much loss, killed 500 or 500
OF their enemy. After the victory, Prince
Mayrocordate (the Great commander) left
a small force to guard MisseIosghi, and
marched with or 900 men against Pa
iras. The defeated Turks rctreated to-
wards Aria, but Petro Bey, chief of the
Magniotes, expected TO dispute with them
the passage Of the Apro Potamos, situated
between Missolonghi aud Arta.
This news is Observation-Disclosures,
the indications that the storm which now
hovrrs'over the Morea will not be discipa-
ted until the surrender of the Peninsula
to the Turks, grow stronger daily. The
Vizier of Bosnia has replaced Chourchid
Pacha, aud has been named Seraskicr
Commander in Chief of Romelia and the
Morea, and has arrived at Larissa with
5000 men.
According to advices from Scio, the
Greek clnigrants continued tn return to their
homes; ADD the Pacha, with great wisdom,
has given directions thatth annual tax shall
not be exactrd ofthem untlithey have had
time to gain enough to support their fa-
miles, aud to pay it, without distressing
them.
