ces that have been thus unexpectedly
brought in arms into contact with each
other may have had their fallings out,
and perhaps come 10 blows. But there
is not any trace of any wide spreading
and serious divisions of counsels. We
have read all the intelligence of any
note, that has been published from
Greece, since the war began, and we
can venture to assert, that there has
been no degree OF such an alarming dis
sension or division of opinion, as that
which prevailed between the tories and
patriots throug heut the whole of our
revolutionary war. There have been
no scenes hike The earnings, and the
Earrings and fetherings of Boston; no
Councils like the Vermont Council OF
Safety" with its birch seal; we have
not perceived that any thing at all like
the Newburg letters has made its ap-
pearance from head quarters; not a
Grecian Gen. has aimed, like Arnold, to
Delray to the Turks the most important
fortress in the Morea one of the Islands,
it is said, has refused to confer on the
general government, the power of lay
ing tax, which is no more than Rhode
Island did in 1882; in short, there is no
trace of any division Of parties among
them, and while Neapolitan patriots
take to their heels, at the sound of an
Austrian drum, and Castilian patriots,
bribed by French gold, shout for the
"Absolute King" the Greeks, rising
from state of slavery, without an al
lay, government, an army,a treasury,
or navy, have stood undivided and un-
dismayed, and CALAMITY fought through
three campaigns each campaign bring
ing down the Turks in greater force,
and sending them back more siguaIly
defeated. In 1921, the Turks were, 10
some measure, taken to disadvantage.
They had Ali Pacha on their hands, 10
Albania; and 10000 Russians in Bes-
sarabia, ready to cross the Pruth. II
was not remarkable that, under these
! circumstances, the Turks should be a.
Bile to send no overwhelming force into
the field, against the Greeks. In 1921
Ali Pacha was no more, and the Russian
army was withdrawn. The Turkish
army penetrated with irresistible force
into the Morea; but in SIX weeks was
beaten back. This we were told, how
ever, was because the Persians bad fall
len upon the Eastern frontier, and the
Pacha of Acre had revolted. In 1928,
the Pacha of Acre makes his submission,
the Persians make peace; the Turks
have no enemy to divide with the
Greeks the weight of the blow, and yet
the latter have for the first time, gone
to meet the Ottoman host, and not a
Turkish army has been able to reach
the great theatre of war.
"A PAwNEE's REvENGE.-The following
account of Long-hair, the hereditary
chief of the Grand Pawnte Indians, is
given in the account of Longs Expedi-
ton to the Rocky Mountains-N. Y. Oh.
Dorion, a Mestizo, on trading expe-
dition, had accumulated considerable
quantity of peltry at the Pswnee repub-

transport his merchandise, he requested
the chief of that village 10 assist him III
conveying it to the Grand Pawnees on
the Platte. The chef directly order

packed upon them and they departed
on the journey; but owing to some al
legged misconduct on the part Of Dori-
on, the chief, when half way, ordered
the goods to be taken from the horses
and to be left on the plain. He then,
with his followers, returned to his viii
lage. The trader, after bewailing his
unfortunate condition, at length resolv-
ed to GO to the Grand Pawnee village
and solicit the aid of Long-Hair. Hav-
ing arrived at the residence of the
chief he related to him in what manner
he had been used by the republican
chief, and concluded by requesting as.
