The Litchfield County post. [volume] (Litchfield, Conn.) 1826-1829, 1826-10-10

A0 tAD-G9D0n time inc most unpleasant &en~
satiOn has been produced BY the reported
discovery Of che ineficiency Of the macllin-
cry, furnished for the equipment Of the
remainder of the steam-vesseis, conStruc-
ted fog the service under his lordship's Or
ders. We participate most fully in the
chagrin and disappointment, which such an
occurrence must havscaused, to every friend
Of freedom, and well-wisher to the cause
Of the Greeks"
A letter from Trieste, Aug. IA, says
We expect, with impotence, farther ac-
counts from the Morea. The captain of
a ship which arrived here yesterday from
July, he heard violent cannonade near
the Island of Samos, and had heard, af-
forwards, that the Captain Pacha had at
tackled that island"
Ibrahim Pacha has been some time en-
gagged in negotiating with the Mainotes, but
has not succeeded in bringing them to any
terms. They have retired to their noun
tains.
They write from Ancona that private
letters from Corfu mention the arrival of
Lord Cochrane at Napoli di Romania,
which took place at the end of July but
there is no direct intelligence.
A Turkish squadron Of % sail has been
detached from the Captain Pacha, who
continues at his station near the Darda-
nelles. 1t proceeds towards the coast of
| Egypt, and it is believed that its destina-
ton is Alexandria, from which it is to es-
cort the reinforcements and warlike stores
which Ibrahim expects from Egypt. Ibra-
him has not made any important move
ment, and Hydra is the only pointin Greece
whore resistance has been prepared.
1urkey.-A variety of extracts from
Constantinople, will be found below. The
plague RACES in several quarters of the CAPT.
tai. and does not even spare the Franks.
1t has shown itself on board several YES
sells in port, and must be on this occasion,
OF very pernicious nature. Three min
listers it is said have been attacked with
this fatal disease at their hotels. The
Courier says the news from this capital, is
of an appalling character. Numerous exc
cutions are continually taking place. The
Sultan appears resolute to exterminate not
only all who have been, but all who might
become, his enemies. The frman dissol-
wing the Janissaries in Turkey has been
published. 1t is curious document, full
Of vigour. 1t discloses some strange facts.
1t seems that the Janissaries, when in a
state OF mntiny, extended their hostility
from the government to the religion Of
their country. The Koran became the
object of attack. The book they are sta
ted to have cut in pieces, wherever they
found it, while their cry was, I'VE will not
have any exercise.
Constantinople letters, of July 18th state,
that the Tartars arrived from the camp of
Redschid Pacha, after few days march,
have brought, the news that that Vizier had
subdued all eastern Greece and that his
army was at the gates of Athens. Many
executions still take place, Galundzi has
been beheaded at Galatea. A former Quo
ia, who had been in the revolt against the
Sultan Ssiim, had suffered the same fate.
. Six Hasseguis Baschis have been banish-
ed. The famous banker, Ecu Schaptchi,
was executed last night; he was accused
Of having employed his influence in favor
of the Bazerghean Baschi, his brother, and
of having dared to protect him from the
first condemnation. The other was accu-
sed of secret understanding with the ia
nissaries and Russians, and of not having
acknowledged that he held in his hands the
fortune Of the abolished Odjak. His prop
erty, valued at so millions Of piastres, has
been con6scated.
The young Duke Of Richelieus has arri-
we'd at Constantinople from Smyrna he
has been received, and still lives at the
Palace Of the French Ambassador. He
proposes to 60 to Odessa. Count Alexan-
der do Laborde, also, whom he left at
Smyrna, intended to come to Constantine
pie in very short time, by the route of
Pergamus, Nice, Brousse and Nicodemia.
Constantinople, Jaly 19.--It is the Ex-
Koul Kyaya, of the abolished militia, Has
san Pacha who commands on the Europe
an bank of the Bosphorus-all his servants
are composed Of ancient Janissaries, of fe-
rocious aspect; he has for porter the on
ly one of the two Oustas, who have been
pardoned.
The third fete of the Courban Beiram
was yesterday held in the Grand. Benisch,
at Dolma Backche. About 5000 troops
(i500 Of whom belonged to the new rails
ed corps) mancavred before his Highness
in their new uniforms.
The Bazerghean Basohl, or Commissary
General, and banker to the Janissaries, was
