TRIESTE, April 16--A vessel arrived from
Zants, after l6 days passage, brings inteli-
eence that lbrahim Pacha left feeble garrison
at Missolonghi, aud has set out for the Mores
with the remainder Of his troops. The Turcos
Egyptian feet has set sail for Nspoh III Roma
MIA. Two frigates and two briggs Of this feet
tackled Miauhs squadron on the 18Th. which
they met with in the Archipelago. 1t appears
that the garrison and inhabitants of MisSoongbi
capable OF bearing arms, within the last few
days amounted altogether to $500 men; but be-
SIDES these. there were reckUDed 1000 young
women, 500 young men, between 10 and IS
wears old, and 700 invalids and wounded. Two
Thousand armed men, having in the midst OF
4 them the women and children, made the softIe
OF the sd, they were all slain except about 40
who were taken alive and made slaves. The
4 other 1000 men who remained in the city, as
sembled the 700 iuyalids together, with the
women and chiliren, in the church, which they
| blew up into the the air, and then proceeded to
share the same fate Of their compatriots, who
. fell in combating the enemy.
The principal cause of this event is ascribed
to ruse of the Gallo Egyptians. who, according
60 the account of Greek emissary taken by
them, placed 500 Aisbanisns. bearing the Greek
I colours, on height pointed out for that pur-
4 pose, and who gave the unfortunate Missolon-
ghites the signal for the sortie. They discover
! ed their error too late; but seeing all hopes OF
4 safety lost, they set ere to a mine, which had
been sor q long time prepared, and were blown
up together with the enemy, which pressed
\ them round on every side

give gra;utously to the soldiers who fought un-
der the walls of Missolonghl, the title Of Gal

with the exception of Seyes, who had become a

l.n officers who had previously served with tho
Greeks, and who, from being harshly treated
by them, had lately sought the means of exist
ence under the yiceroy. 1t is, moreover. Ger.

SPAIN.-The timely rains in Spain have pro-
duced fall of wheat which has given great Joy
TO the people of Madrid.
MADRID May l4.---There is reason TO be-
liere, from the dersnged state in which the
finances of Spain are known to be, that the
/ journey made to Madrid by VI. Cock, to demand
40, 00O,000. due to English merchants, is but
pretext employed by tbe Cabinet of Lon
don, Zoe Selling on the Havana. M. Cock has
animated as much, aud other Englshmen have
