Greek in that Island, under the name of .sThe
| Friend Of Law" They contain a considerable
number of the acts of the central government
BY one of these acts, the city ofNapoli de Bona
MIA is established as the scat ofgovcrnmcut. By
another, Panos Colocotrini, eldest son of the
| General of that name is declared q rebel. Ano-
Their number announces that Gemineos Coloco-
ritni, youngest son ofthe said General, had lust

According to letter from Augsburgh, of MAY
2l.t, at themoment of the departure OF the Otto

Pacha, some light Greek vessels were described,
which Immediately set sail to carry the ntelIi-
