sent for the siege of -Pampeluna; we expect
every moment the sappers and miners but
before the siege can be- commenced in form,
and with proper effect, there must be some
more troops, the force now before the place
not being sufficiently strong to carry on the
works and prevent the numerous garrison
from making sallies.
MADRID, Aug 1O.--The following is what
probably gave rise to the news circulated yes
terday:
"A letter from Seville stated, that Calatra-
va had had, on the 9Th inst. long conference
with Gen. Bourdesoult, in the Isle of Leon,
at the conclusion of which, the Cortes and the
members of the revolutionary government,
embarked on board English vessels. On the
9Th, at day break, the king and his august ia
mily were, they said, at full liberty, and at the
head quarters of the besieging army, Cadiz
having surrendered amid cries of Vive LIE
Roi the ringing of bells. and discharges of
cannon, which continued friag at the moment
when the courier departed"
LONDON, August l2.-The accounts from
the Archipelago are very gratifying. 1t APP
pears by them that the Greeks have gained
a triple victory, whereby they have wholly
deranged the combinations of the Turks
y
commander ofthe Turkish combined fleet, de-
tached twenty transports, escorted by some
ships of war, for Patras, while he himself with
the main furce made for the Bay of Corystos,
in the Isle of Eubea. Here, under the pro-
lection of the b, tteries of the place, occupied
by the Turks he landed 5000 troops, which
he ordered TO gain Attica, by the Strait of
Negropont, and thence proceeded to Phoris.
IN order To favor the entrance Of the Turks
from Thessaly, by the pass Of Thermopyle. =
The Greeks defending the pass would thus have
been placed between twn fires. The Pacha,
however, had scarcely effected the landing of
the troops at Corystos, when Greek squad
ron, which had watched his movements, at
tackled him. The combat was long, and well
sustained by the Turks; bat at length the
Greeks, by their skill in maueuvring, and their
freships, blew up several Turkish vessels, took
six, and put to flight and chased the rest ofthe
enemy's aeet. The squadron which sailed
for Pa,ras. upon hearing of this disaster, in
staniy quilted the harbor, and bore away for
the Coast of Africa. As to the troops which
were landed al Corystus, they had advanced
only se,en leagues, when they Were attacked
by The Greek troops, which had concentrated
Themselves on the heights between Buphalon
and PeIrias. The Barbarans, accustomed Ia
tn level plains of Asia and III prep I'd for
fighting IN ground ofunequal surface. were put
to rout, and pursued back 10 Corysios The
ground behind them remained strewed with
their dead. The Turkish army of Thessaly
was to attack the pass ofThermopyle, in con-
cert with the expected troops from Eubea on
the other side. Ii therefore marched upon
Thermopyle, and reached the pass of Zetou-
nj. Here il was attacked by Odysseus Tor U
lysses) and driven hack into the plains of
Pharsalla. The details of the last affair have
not yet been received. If this intelligence be
correct, aud there appears no reason To distrust
it, so complete disorganization of the plan
of operations ofthe Turks would disable the
enemy for the present year, il, indeed it did
not render wholly secure the independence Of
Greece.
