July 81, confirms the account of the
captivity Of lbrahim Pacha. "The
Greeks have gained complete victory
oyer Ibrahim at Tripoiitza and have
succeeded in taking him prisoner. This
communication is true and certain, and
you may depend on It, have therefore
sentit to you by express to avoid the
delays OF the post"
Further confirmation is also to be
found in the following:--
Bucharest, August I.
A Russian Courier, who left Constan-
tinople on the 23d OF July, in the eve
Mug, and passed through this city, has
related that the whole Egyptian army
In the interior of Morea is destroyed,
and fbrahim Pacha himself taken pri-
soner BIZ the Greeks, On the same day
that this bad news was received at Con-
xtantinople, an Imperial FIrman, he said
was published in the capital, ordering
all persons 10 refrain from speaking on
political subjects. The merchants let
tiers that have been received by this
opportunity only say, in general terms,
that with the next post great event
will be made known, which will aston
jsh all Europe"
On the other hand, the subsequent ar
ticle from Constantin ople, of the date of
the Goth of July, which is later from that
place than is contained in tho proceed
lug paragraph puts different face on
affairs:
Letters from Constantinople Of July
&c, received at Paris, state that lbra-
him Pacha was still in the Plateau of
Tripolitza The Capt Pacha's troops,
to the number of or 5000, arrived at
Mission on the 9Th, and set out on the 18th
for Tripolitza. The plague was preva
lent at Modon and Navarin.
The Diario Romano OF August 0,
contains aletter from SYRIA, stating a re-
port that Ibrahim Pacha had burnt Cor
inth; and that Colocotroni had after
wards entered into negotiation with
them.
II is stated, by way of Venice, that
General Goura had gained another VIC
tory over the Pacba of Negropont, who
after sustaining great loss, was obliged
to return to EubGa and evacuate the
districts of Eastern Greece
On the ! 18th July, at 10 p. M a fire
broke out in the palace of the Pacha of
;Salonichi, which in short time des-
troyed all the apartments, the harem,
the stables, and the immense buildings
accomplishing the residence of the Ciaja
Bey, and of above 1000 persons belong
ing to the royal household. Above
thirty other houses were also destro yed,
.@ndt the ruins co7er space of more than
a quarter of league ia extent. The
.engine and fremen of the consulate, af-
ter labourlag IN vain to save the palace
'of the Pacha, turned their attention to
that Of the Aga OF the Janisaries,
which they preserved. The Turks &C
cuse the Albanians, and the Albanians
accuse the Janisaries OF setting fire. |
The Pacha was on horseback during
the whole time of the conhagration.
The Constitutional also says: That
the Lord High Commissioner of the !
Ionian Islands has had very smart ex-
PLANTATION with the Austrians, who had |
violated neutrality by preventing the
Greek fleet from attacking the Turkish |
one when it could have done it with |
advantage; and that some common shots
had been exchanged between the En-
gGsh and an Austrian vessel on that oc-
casion." The EtoIs denies that any
interchange of shots had taken place
but admits that his Lordship had been
on board the Austrian vessel 1t adds,
the sailing of an English ship had been |
occasioned by an Algerine frigate, with
out stating what that frigate has done.
If it be true, adds the London Ira
weller, and we ara much inclined to be- |
lieve it from all that has previously oc-
that the Austrians sheltered the |
Turks at that critical moment, the pre-
tended iuacton of the Greek feet, its |
retreat to Hydra, and the impede Ian
ding of the Egyptian reinforcements in
the Morea, are once accounted for.
Against such an unprincipled interfer-
ence, nothing but miracle from the
providence of God could enable the
Greeks to contend: but of such mira
Gle we would not despair. For the sake |
of christianity, we hope that the Aus
TRANS have not carried so far their un.
christian and inexpiicable partiality for
the Turks Though we lament to see
by these papers, that they are not the
only power whose cruisers have violated |
neutrality, and sacriligiously became |
She agents otthe Ottomans. The whole |
