ed up to God TO bestow his blessing on The IN
reference Of the monarehs."
Count yiero Capo dIstria, written under the
date of 18th August and 9th Sept. that "the
Greeks have chased the Egyptians from Volt
"a, and by that means are masters OF the inn
~portsnt grape harvest Of Corinth, which the
enemy had possessed himself Of. Nicetas has
surprised q convoy Of a thousand horses. Gen.
ChuI ch has taken the direction of Patras.-
The Seraskicr is at Thcbes; all the strong po-
sitions Of Continental Greece are in the power
ofthe Greeks. Concord has been re-establish-
cd at NapOli."
Adviccs from Constantinople are to the 18th
of September, but although they confirm the
fact that the combined powers are blockading,
or at least, watching the feet of the Egyptians,
yet they differ in some unimpor'a ant particulars
from the statements from various other sources.
The Ambassadors, it is said, continued on tie
10th Of September TO treat with the Porte
The Greek Government accepted the media
ton on the Sd Of September. The Egyptian
fleet arrived at Navarro on the 8 h. The En-
gIish squadron was off the port on tho 18th,
which it kept blockaded-whlle the French
squadron in like manner blockaded Modon,
for the purpose Of intercepting any supplies
that might he sent there. An account from
the same place, Of the 18th states that the CA
petition from Egypt, was met by the combined
squadrons near Milo, and obeyed the "mmons
OF Sir Edward C%odrington to withdraw. II
proceeded to Maori. But this does not cores
pond with the best authenticated statements
of the actual arrival Of the Egyptians and the
de barkation of another horde Of Arabs.
But intelligence of a more bclligercnt aspect
rea chcd London by express from Paris, on the
1 tn of October, which, by some, was %constru-
ed into the commencement of hosiilitics in the
east of Europe. 1t is, that one Of the Egypt
ian fleet, in attempting TO put TO sea from Nav
arino, was fired upon by one Of the vessels
composing tho British squadron, under the
command of Sir Edward Codrngton. This
news was for a time treated as a mere rumour,
until IT was ascertained that one of the French
journals (the Gazette dc France) actually con-
tanned an account Of this rencontre. Soon al
terwards the public Securities sunk nearly half
per cent, and closed extremely heavy. The
letters from Paris dated at a late hour, in ad-
dition TO the above, state that the information
was obtairod by way Of Trieste; ano it was
reported that The French Government had rc-
ceiycd some intimatIon Of tho affair, though
not official, which appears TO be made a sub
icct Of greater Importance here than at Paris,
az the French Funds were a shade higher on
Saturday than on the preceding day.
