"The details Of the sacking OF Missolonghi
are but imperfectly known, as the approach OF
Ionian coasters is forbidden; but we know that
Ibrahim cut off or 5000 heads, some Of which
were sent off daily to Constantinople. The
body of Bishop Joseph was sailed whole, as a
present for the Sultan. Tbs women and youns
girls were distributed to the officers and pri-
Yates, to be disposed Of as each thought pro-
per. The churches were all destroyed, except
one, which was converted into mosque. Pre-
vious to being murdered, the people found at
Missolonghi were put to the torture, for the
purpose Of extracting from them whether there
was not treasure hidden in the fortress Upon
the Christian legations at ConstantinoPle re-
ceiving official intelligence of the fall Of Mis-
soonghi, they sent their dragomans to congra

The Diario di Roma asserts that Ibrahim
Pacha had left Tripolizza, with 10000 men,
and large train of artillery, to march against
Napoli di Romania.
The Morning Post says-"According to late
French papers, the National Assembly Of
Greece has empowered the British Ambassa-
dor at Constan,inople TO treat of peace with the
Porte on certain conditions These conditions,
it will be seen, whilst they goto secure the in
ternal freedom of the whole Greek population,
would still leave the country tributary Sta,e,'
unless the Porte should prefer accepting large
sum, once for all, as France has done from Hay
Ii, instead Of yearly tribute. Should these
terms be accepted, Greece would be placed on
nearly the same footing as Modavia, or per-
haps on little more favorable one, as the in
Auence Of the Divan would be more strictly
excluded from its internal concerns, than it is
ir that Principally. Should they be rejected,
the Assembly has directed the Commission 10
address all the Powers Of Europe, and to en-
deavor TO obtain from all or from one of them
assistance and protection.
The FrankfortJournal Of the 9Th June states

death, and he as well as Conduriotti has taken
refuge at Hydra.
