OFFICE OF THE BoSToS PATRIOT,
Supday lime noon


BY the Congress, Captain hinsman, from
Cowes, London newspapers to the 9th May,
with corresponding dates from the continent,
have been received at Merchants Hall.
Measures, it will be seen, were taking in Eng
land, by Parliament and individuals, TO relieve
the distresses of the suffering poor who have
been thrown out of employ by the suspension
Of work in the manufacturing districts. Nu-
merous details are given Of riotous proceedings,
but we are glad 10 see that there was probabi-
lily Of a stop being put to the wanton destruc-
ton of property, which had presented such
threatening appearances.
We learn nothing OF the state of the British
markets for cotton or other produce.
GREEcE.-Undcr date Of Corfu, April c, we
find the following intelligence, which our read
ers will unite with us in hopes of its conhvma-
ZION:
eThe most reccn, letters from Zante and
Prevesa confirm the news that lbraham Pacha
was raor,aly wounded in the last attack made
on Mis,olonghi, Esd March, n. S. An English
vessel arrived Yesterday from Malta the cap
tain has stated to the magistrates that he met
near Cerigo the Greek feet, which having learnt
,ha, large convoy Of Turkish vessels was on
its way from Egypt TO the Morca, haid sailed in
cues, of it, and captured almost the whole
This explains the delay Of the Greek feet in
proceeding to Missolorghi butt is hoped that
nothing will now retard 1t.
"a letter Of 9th of April says that Nssolon-
CHI still holds out, and even triumphs."
Upon the subject of the late continental war
rumors, the Public Ledger Of the 9th May says,
"rhe German newspapers, as we'll as the
French, continue to insist on the probability OF

is only strange that there is not demonstra-
ton on the part of single European Cabinet,
TO countenance this opinion. Whilst an APP
preaching wal is the prevailing topic with the
former, the latter are apparently as quiet as in
times of the most settled tranquility and in the
military department Of every state there is the
same repose visible as in the political. If the
public journals, however, are right in their war
like conclusions, we can only say that the dit
fcrent powers betray an unaccustomed degree OF
apathy, for formerly they would have been all
in state OF the greatest hustle upon less I'M
portant occasion The Porte TOO eviEces an
unaccountable inaction, as all its energies, 1t IS
well known, are directed against the Greeks,
whilst ii has not taken single measure as yet
TO defeat the hostile intentions OF Russia. On
the par, of the latter TOO the warlike prepare
tons, surprising them 10 exist, are conducted
with such a wonderful degree of secrecy, as to
have hitherto eluded the lynx-eyed vigilance Of
European diplomacy. We are well aware that
intelligence has reached town, in the course OF
the present week, Of the departure OF the great
er part of the garrison OF ST. Pelersburgh for
the south; bu, it announces that the troops, con-
sisting of several regiments of infantry and Ca
valry Of the Imperial Guards, are to make part
Of gay pageant, and not OF warike exped-
lion. They are TO assist at the coronation at
Moscow, instead Of proceeding to cut the
,hroats ofth Turks; and in the mean time the
rest of the Russian army is as quiet as possible
in its environments; and we would defy pro-
fessed alarmist to draw from the present aspect
of that empire even faint inference OF hostile
character.
|, appears, however, that the Court Of St.
Petersburg has taken decided steps to termi-
nate the uncertainty, which for these i've years
has marked its relation with the Porte. IN this
course it seems to be guided wholly by desire
to consolidate peace, and not from wish 10
violate it. Russia is, probably, anxious TO see
