The packet ship Phanthea arrived last night
at very late hour, bringing us our files of on
don papers to the 9TH of Oct. from which we
make few extracts.--There are no new ac-
counts from Greece, other than the confrma-
ton of the affair of Samos, which occurred on the
10th and goth of August, when ten thousand
Turks disembarked at the above place, and were
completely destroyed by the Greeks. The cap
tain pacha could render them no relief, as he
found himself at the moment attacked by tue
Greek squadron, vino employed every desperate
means of destruction in their power. The bat
tie terminated with theloss of the fire ships of the
Greeks, but not till after they had accomplished
every thing they had expected or intended.
They also lost three armed briggs, and, what was
for them more Iamentable, the immortal Cano-
ris, who had already achieved the glory of des-
troying two captain pachas, orgrand admirals.
The loss of toeTurks has been an sdmis. ship
