The Bombay Gazette, of June LIZ, had
been received inLondon, ard contains
some further details Of the operations
of the British troops against the Bur
mesc. One division Of the army had
been compelled to retreat on Ramao,
from Rateapullung, after a skirmish
which took place on the 9th of June
The FIRST affair was an attack upon
detachment of several thousand of
the Bermese, in the mouth Of Jungle,
by which they were covered. The
elephants of the Burmese on which
their cannon are mounted, became
larmed atthe firing, and dismOunted
their burdens, and the detachment was
defeated. The Burmese, however,
rallied, and to the number Of 10000
besieged the English in Ramoo so
closely as TO compel them to retreat
after an Intellectual resistance OF Sc.
veral days. The fighting men of the
Burmese were computed at $1,000

whom carries his provisions, and the

From L,vrpeol Paper Of 15th Oct.

From a Liverpool Paper o. loh Oct.
Latest Nctos from Turkey We
have been kindly iavoured by com
mercial gentleman of the town with
the following important extract OF u
letter, dated at Smyrna, Cd OF Sept.
being duplicate despatched by The
way of roulon by French ship of
war transmitted from Marseilles, and
received here yesterday, prior to the
arrival of the Turkey mail of the same
date, now due. The intelligence which
IT conveys relative TO the detection OF
the Turkish troops on learning the fate
of their coun,rymen at Samos is curl
Gus; and no doubt can be entertained
of the extent of the panic stated to be
excited among them--the writer ofthe
letter being himself, we are assured,
hostile to the Greek CAUSE.-THE
Turks have been panic struck 10y the
Greeks having burnt a frigate, brig,
and corvette, by their fire shlps.-Tne
greater part OF the army Immediately
disbanded, and the feet is said to have
left the vicinity Of Samos. Such pro
:. cecdings are quite wonderful There
is yet no improvement in business; in-
deed cause exists for it to be even
more dull than hitherto, in consequence
of great portion OF the hundred
5housandmen assembled at Scalanova,
having disbanded TO return home.
tThe roads are covered with them in
every direction, and they plunder ev-
nv thing they meet. Even the Turk
ish ambassador from the Porte to the
Viceroy of Egypt has not been res
pected, having been robbed OF every
-ahng he possesscd--even his clothes"
THE GREEKS.-Extract OF a
letter OF a recent date from Augsburg:
"a few days previous to the departure
ofthe Emperor Alexander for the IN
terror part OF his states, dispatches were
sent off from St. Petersburg to Vienna
and London. 1t is believed that they
relate to the affairs of Greece--that
they contain a proposition for negocl
atoms to be set on foot between the
principal Courts of Europe for the
purpose of putting an end to the bloc
dy struggle which has SO long existed
between the Greeks aud Turks, and
at length to recognize Greece as an
independent nation, under the protec
torate of a Great Northern Power.
