THE GREEKS.
Extract ofa letter, dated Trieste. July q.
The island Of Ipsars, little n. w. Of
Scio, has been attacked and taken by The
Turks, after desperate resistance which
cost them 500 men. The lpsarlots re-
solving not to share the fate OF the Sclotes,
assembled the remaining population in the
fort and blew themselves up, involving
multitudes of their conquerors in their dss-
tructi0n
The Island OF Ipsara, which the Turkish
commander has obtained at such an ex-
pense OF men and money, is not FIVE miles
long, and scarcely any where two miles
broad, being very little, if at all, larger
than the island OF Lundy in the Bristol
Chanuel. The Ia 900 men by whom this
little island was invaded, would, II drawn
up in the usual parade order, exteRd in
double line drawn from one end OF il to
the Other. The ships which conveyed
these men were 80 10 number, and they
were enough to have surrounded the ISL
and With continued chain at an interval
of two hundred yards from each other.
To refer to military superiority, the con-
guest of this little island defended only
by its inhabitants) by naval and military
force SUCH az we have described, were
maaifestly ridiculous Such an island. so
circums,aDced, could make no effectual
defence, and the length to which it pro.
tracted its resistance, ough, 10 be 10 the
highest degree encouraging 10 the friends
of freedom.
