LIVERPOOL, JULY %.


in an unparalleled degree perVades the
manufacturing districts OF this and the
adloining counties.
Accounts daily reach US Of the increas-
ed misery OF the working classes, occa-
stoned by the manufacturers generally
being compelled 10 abridge their hours
OF labor, and even then only 10 employ
o portion of the manufacturing popula-
ton. The extreme distress which pre-.
walls, fills with apprehension the minds
Of all those interested IN the peace oil
the country. Il is true we are without
&C. cunts of those alarming acts OF vlo-
lence which we some time ago received,
but We feel convinced that the recur-
renee of those lamentabe acts is alone
prevented by the presence OF large
military force.
We cannot disguise from ourselves
the appalling conviction that the great
mass of the industrious population en-
gagged in manufactures, is reduced TO
psuperism and despair; that the en-
ploymep, still given is hourly decreas-
ing; and that food will probably advance
in price. With this view OF our sltna.
tion, we confess we are no, prepared to
meet the approach OF winter, without
feelings oil a nature little allied to those
by which the governmen, at present ap.
pears to be actoated. We believe tina,
the situation Of the people in this coun-
try has been represented to government;
they, therefore, must be aware, that not
only the manufacturing, but the com
mercial interests, are IN situation TO
require immediate and effectual relief.
We venture to assert tina, relief must
will be increas ed in degree calculated
to mako every man IN this country anx-
ious to obtain, by any reasonable sacrl-
flee, return TO a settled state OF things,
in which the enterprise OF the merchant
and the industry Of the artizan will be
encouraged and promoted, and the lor-
tunes OF the whole community will be
protected from those sudden and violent
changes which illustrate the wisest plans,
and render unavailing the most indelati-
gable industry.
ISLES OF THE ARCHIPELAGO.
"syRA, JUNE S.
=" Ibrabim traverses in conquering
march the whole of the Peloponessus,
without finding any where the least re-
sistan =. After having divided his ar
my ino three columns, he directed one
upon Megapelea-a convent fortified by
err AID nature, in which is deposited the
wealth OF he principal families Of the
Morea. The Arsbisns matfe themselves
masters OF it, after having taken great
number OF prisoners. The other col.
umn marched upon Mistra, where it en-
couniered no opposition. The Greeks
fly on all hands. Those OF the province
OF Tacoma could only find safety in es-
Gaping on board the Spezzio, ships.
g The measures taken by the Hydri.
otes and Spezzlotes are contradictory.
The latter, because their ships can re-
ceive their whole population, are ready
to fly. The Hydriots on the contrary,
are obliged to remain on the island, the
inhabitants OF which could not be receiv-
ed On board their ships. BY this defec.
ton of the Spezziotes, the little courage
which remains to the Greeks will be
extDguished.
+" The English Colonel Gordon, it is
said, had arrived a, Napoli di RomanIa,
with money, and two cargoes Of provi-
sions. Forty families flying from Aza.
CARA, and repulsed from Hydra, have
been refused landing at Cerigo, till
they could give, according to the order
OF the English Government, the guaran-
ties required from emigranls. The in
hsbitanls Of Senidhi have experienced
the same lot. Many OF the latter have
persisted in flying to thoir boats. syria
is tranquil, but al the departure OF the
squadron, the armed force will proceed
to Hydra, and Leyrs will thus be aban-
doned to the mercy Of the brigands.
