10 the Egyptian system of administra lion.
We are enabled to la before our readers the fol-
lowing Intelligence FROM Greece, received by ex-
press from Ancoaa. 1t is addressed to The Greek
Deputies
" The Government hastens 20 communicate to
you the cheering intelligence OF the successes OF
Greek arms both at Nissoongh and il Gambia.
" Missolonghi was pressed b. land by perse
vering and enterprisng enemy, aud By sea 10y the
ICOnsianunopoan feet, which had succeeded in
sending nto the port than 80 boats, which
played of their artillery the to,Sn. The Greek
fleet, although IT had set OFT in time TO assist that
fortress, was detained by contrary wirds and Gains
and with difficulty tveAiy-four vessels arrived there
on the 22nd nit. (3d August.) These attacked
twice the whole Of he enemy's fleet, and forced il
to fly in a shameful manner, with the loss of two
| briggs, which our seamen took and burned, and
leaving IN the port the whole of their boats, of
which the Greeks took the four largest without in
juring them, with all the ammunition aud pros isions
which were IN them: they destroyed two other boats
and all the rest retreated towards the shore under
the batteries, and became partly prey TO the
flames, and partly taken by the Greeks. The
| flight OF the enemv's fleet was the more shameful
as they were only opposed by een of our vessels
This victory obtained between the 2SI and
9th ult. GAN and 9th August) Two days pre-
viously, the enemy, being excited by the besieged
at Nissolonsh, who necessarily deiied them - the
combat, and being informed that the Greek Aee
was coming TO their assistance, and that the place
was at that moment in great want OF every thing,
attacked it severely four points at the same iime
having filled up the trenches there, but they Were
courageousiy met, and los more than thousand
men. When the enemy's blockade had been rails
ed, and the place had received the necessary sup
plies OF ammunition aud provisions, there came to
the rear of the enemy the troops OF Zavelss and
Caralsca<is, and other chiefs, the number of tive
thousand, which had arrived from the camp at Sa-
ona, and which were proceeding TO ApocUron and
C7rPensi; they conquered aud drove away the
envy who were there, and relieved Mlssolonghi,
and having come 10 understanding with those
| IN the town on the 25th ult 18th Ausust,) they
| ieli from behind on the enemy, and at the same
time the besieged made vehement sally from dill
terent points; but this stratagem did not succeed so
well as 1t was anticipated, as our troops who were
outside the place were forced TO retreat, and the
besieged re-entered, after having killed 200 of the
enemy's troops and taken several pieces OF cannon
Oar troops show the greatest perseverance; they
have regretted the batteries which were demolish-
ell and cleared the trenches, where the enemy had
filed them up. The Albanians desert from the
camp OF Redschid Pacha, and only 400 are with
h" now The same thing happened at salona,
where almost all the Alb inans returned To Zei;on-
| ny; so that almost all the troops which are now in
ITeece are Turks, and do not exceed IL, 900 in
number.
several Greek vessels remain blockadng Patras,
and two have just been sent to assist in the siege
clarlng those places in a state of blockade. Ano-
ther part OF the fleet is gone to intercept the enc
| my division, which we heard yesterday pro-
ceedins towards Suda or Halicanassus. Two
sells were sent, some days since, and three fire
shlps, under our best brtlOtieTs, to burn the fleet
In the port OF Alexandria.
=" Yesterday, we received intelligence that on the
"a inst. l4th August the Greeks in Gambia had
gained possession of the forresses OF Greenhouses
aud hissamos, and that several of the provinces
had taken up arms.
g Seven hundred Candiotes, who after the catas-
trophe OF their country, h'd come to the Alorea.
and were in the armies OF the Peloponnesus, and in
Western Greece, thinking it good opportunity,
returned home with every thing necessary, and sue
ceeded in their hopes OF landing the fortress OF
! Greenhouses
! s. The Government is nov seriously occupied in
! preparing shipment of troops, ammunition, &c
| TO help our countrymen in Gambia. We hope much
from this expedition, all the Albanians who were
IN that island followed lbrahim Pacha into the |
! Morea; and no troops remain there of any conse-
quence except the native Turks, many OF whom
also accompanied the Pacha
In the fortress OF Greenhouses, they found TWEEN
ty-seven pieces OF cannon, and twenty mortars,
and great quantity of powder, which, sJthouah
old, can be made use Of. In The fortress OF Kissa-
mos there was also quantity of ammunition, o.
| which We have as set no detailed account
. isr"iilm Pachd has returned TO Tripozza. The
| Albanans who came to his assistance from Gambia
have repeatedly been beaten by the Greeks, and in
one combat they lost their commander Hassan Pa
| cha Several bodies OF PelopOnnesians are formed
In order about Tripozza, the confines ofCalavrita
Caritena, Argos and ASioperon. The largesi
! force - that 0t Vervena, under the command of
| Theodore Colocotroni, which amounts 10 from
| 5000 to 1000 men. Every day different combats
! take place, in which, well as he slirnishes and
ainbuscades, the enemy is considerably weakened
Our troops have begun 10 follow syslcma icallv
| this sort OF warfare which we think will succeed
81 The Nimble arrived here some DAYS ago. with
the lns'alment OF the Loan, and by the Decree of
which we send you herewith copy, you will per
ceive 10 what good uses the Government mas an
proprated the money
! - We have just been Informed that Ibrahim Pa
! cha, being IN want of provisions and ammunition
las begun, with the greater part of his troops to
move towards the Gulf of Messina; but he has not
proceeded by the way Of Deryenia nor Poliani but
a new way, almost impracticable where there were
moi 50 many Of our troops. An obstinate engage
ment took place, which lasted two days, in which
he received great injury. When lie will have learn
ed the Instruction in Gambia, we doubt not but he
will be greatly dishearened.
