The affairs of Greece-The invasion
Vi uIeeCe " ttrU n5yPtEu,' 49,
lbrahim Pacha, the son of the Viceroy
of Egypt, is much more formidable than
we believe has generally been supposed.
The two first divisions of this army land
ed at Modon, from the island of Gambia,
where a great part of the Egyptian
troops had passed The winter in March.
The Oriental Spectator, in the beginning
of April, speaking of the state of affairs
in the Morea, says, at the present army
of the son of the Viceroy of Egypt,
amounts TO $4,000 men, of whom 10000
are infantry, and 1000 cavalry. The
third division, which he expects from
Crete, consists Of 1000 combatants. Af-
forwards there is the last expedition,
which departed from Alexandria, and
which is now at Rhodes, of 5000 men.
This statement is probably not much ex-
aggerated. The fortress of Navarin,
which had been for some time besleged,
and 5000 Greek troops, who, according
10 the Oriental Spectator, were then as
sembled there, and the reinforcements
they afterwards received, continued to
afford full employment for this army, I'M
til the 18th of May; when we learn from
the Spectator, tina; the fortress surren-
dered, en- condition that the garrison.
amounting TO 100 men, should march
ont with 80 men armed, with all their
baggage, and be transported in Europe
an vessels to Calamata, one of their own
ports.
The third division of Ibrahim's army,
above mentioned, of 1000 men, was join

arrived at Rhodes. The two divisions
united, formed a feet of 40 sail, of
which so were ships Of war, and so
transport vessels. tsailed from Gambia,
April 90, and arrived at Modon, May 9,
thus increasing the army Of Ibrahim, ac-
cording 20 the lowest enumeration of the
Oriental Spectator, to $4,000 men.
While lbrahim was carrying on the
siege of Navarin, and waiting for this re-
enforcement, several affairs took place
between bodies Of his troops and the
Greek forces which were assembling TO
meet hum, which were represented as
important Greek victories. II is impos-
sIbie to estimate the degree of impor-
tance Of these several rencounters. IL
is evident that he sustained considera-
bic loss, and il is probable, also, that
there were losses ou the other side.
The most important of these affairs
which terminated in favor of the Turks
was the capture Of the fort of Old Nava-
rim, and OF the island Of Sphagia situated
10 the bay, on which was battery, and,
according to the Spectator, were 1901
troops. On the arrival of his reinforce.
ments, lbrahim despatched forty trans
ports to take possession of this island.
Seven Greek vessels which were at an.
chof near il made their escape, with the
exception of one which ran ashore. and

THE RATTY.ESN9KE.


Mr.. Edilor.-The following relation
furnishes, believe, a new fact in natur-
al history if you are Of the same opin-
ion, you may publish it.
Travelling through one of the SOUTH
ern States, my attention was attracted
by singular rustling 10 the thickets
which bordered the road. stopped
nv horse to learn its cause and soon
discovered, at few PAGES from the
track, rattlesnake of rather more than
ordinary size, in coil such as these
reptiles always throw themselves into,
on the approach or attack Of an enemy,
exhibiting every symptom of extreme
rage, and displaying all those terrible
beauties for which its species are so re-
markable when under the influence of
passion. No cause for its disorder was
at first visible but in short time a
black snake darted from the surrounding
bushes rapidly across the folds of his
antagonist, and disappeared on the 9TH
er side. The rattlesnake did not fail
TO strike at his darling assailaut, but
with what success the rapidity of their
motions prevented me from determining.
The rattlesnake remained in his coil,
prepared for another assault, which was
accordingly soon offered by his black
foe repairing. and again gliding across
him with almost uncomfortable rapidity
while the same attempt as formerly was
made TO punish the aggression, These
movements were several times repeat
ed with no apparent advantage TO Ell
Their party. The black snake seemed
once or twice struck with the fangs of
his enemy, and yet returned with undi-
minished celebrity TO bis subtle assault.
The density of the underwood would
not permit me 10 follow with my eyes
his retreat; and however great my Gu
riosity TO ascertain how he employed
the time of bis absence, ! could not pre-
vail upon myself to indulge it by enter
ing on SO fatal battle ground. Al
length the rattlesnake, in one of his at
tempts to revenge the insolence of his
assalaDt, struck his fangs deep into his
body; he extricated them, stretched
himself with every appearance of ago
ny on the ground, and turning on bis
back, in short time expired. The
crafty victor once more appeared, and
seizIng the lifeIess body in his mouth,
dragged it from the scene of action.
