LATEST FROM GREECE

We have received from Smyrna, the Specta
teny Oyieatal to Nov. IL. II speaks with con
6dence Of negotiations going on at Constanti-
nople, the object of which was to bring about
termination ofthc Greek war, and which n
was hoped would be successful. There was
no conjecture, however, OF the nature and con-
di,ions Of the paci6cation which it wasexpress'
ed would be brought about.
The Captain Pacha withdrew with his squad
ron from Me,elin, Oct. 2s, and arrived at the
Dardaneles, Nov. s, where it was expected he
would winter. A party Of about so Greeks
from the island oil Samos, landed on The con,i'
nent, and proceeded league from the coast 10
the Seven Mills, without the least opposition
and carried off a quantity Of sheep.
The Pacha Of Gambia had made himself SO
odous by his severe exactions upon the people
Of that island, that the revolts IN the interior
had become much more frequent and alarming
and the descents of the Greeks from abroad
upon the island were more frequent. and OAR
ing. The Pacha could not go more than
league from his residence, without running the
risk Of being taken prisoner.
Accounts from Alexandra in Egypt to Oe'.
%, state that on the arrival Of Tartar from
constan,inople, portion Of the troops which
had been already embarked on board the squad

FROM ANNAPOLIS

Extract of letter to the Editors offhe 9meriean, dated
"ANNaPoLIs, February 10th, 1927.
The bill from the House Of Delegates, incor-
porating the "Maryland Savings Institution"
has been stopped in the senate. 1t is said the
city senator's think, though they doubt not the
rec,itude of the application on the part of those
by whom it is now made and who personally
apply for il, that the provisions OF the bill, as
il has passed the House, may be in violation OF
the stipulation heretofore given the several
banSs, that no other banking body should be
hereafter organized without their consent. A
mother bill is before the senate, which has also
met the sanction OF the House, substituting a
pecuniary penalty and confinement, in the Jail
for the present punishment, in the penitentiary,
for the offence of gambling l, seems on all
hands to be admitted that the existing law on
this subject is too severe to be inflicted It's
said that heretofore it never has been enforced,
and the presumption is that it will never be here
after tsui,s not, or appears to suit not, the
temper Of the times

squadron was to sail withou, them, for the pur.
pose of carrying provisions to lbrahim Pacha.
II was conjectured by the writer Of the letter,
that the cause Of the Decentralization Of the
troops was the prospect Of peace.
Accounts from Athens relate thatthe Greeks
succeeded in throwing reinforcement Of 200
troops into the Acropolis. This was effected
by means Of an attack upon the Turks by Ka-
raiskaki and Colonel Fabvier in one direction,
while Griziotes with 500 men advanced unex-
pec,edly from the opposite direction, & shrew
portion of them into the fortress. Having
effected this object the Greeks Immediately re-
treated. Omer Pacha of Negropont, is dead.
Ibrahim Facha appears to have remained in the
Morea. The squadron from Egypt was impa-
tien,ly expected at Navarin, with the pay and
clothing Of the troops, and provisions. Colo
cotroni was at Napoi, attempting to fit out an
expedition against Tripolitza.

FROM KEY WEST

We learn from Capt. Johnson, Of the sloop

which place he left | days since, that Commo-
dore Porter remained in that port with his FRI
gate, the Libertad and an armed hermo2hro-
dite brig.-The remainder Of bis squadron,
consisting oftwo briggs, bad sailed to scour the
coast OF Cuba. Two frigates and three briggs
of the Spanish blockading squadron remained
off the port. The { commodore was under no
apprehensions from the Spaniards, as, from the
nature Of the port, he can put TO sea without
difficulty. He had dispatched one of his p"iz-
es to Havana with l 50 prisoners, being the
first intmation the Spaniards received Of his
situation. His squadron was we'll manned,
but had few officers. His nephew, Captain
Charles Porter, was second in command
The Colombian schr. Cara6o6o, Captain Hop

during his present cruize he had taken near SO
sail Of vessels, but had sent none Of them in
The Cara6o6o had a narrow escape from the
Spanish brig Hercules, and only got away by
the brig getting into shoa water.
The ship Spermo, MCPHERSON, from New
York, bound to New-Orleans, was totally lost
on Alligator Reef, coast Of Florida, about four
weeks since. A part of the cargo was saved
and carried to Key West. Among the articles
saved was what was said to be an Egyptian
Mummy, out smelling bad it was unrolled, and
after stripping i, Of multitude Of folds OF lin
en-, nothing was discovered bu. skeleton with
the neck disloca,ed. The smell was so often
sive that the collector ordered it TO be burnt.
Capt Johnson spoke the line ship Caesar, on
Caryslord Reef, the Captain of which requested
hin, to state that part of his crew had been in
state of mu,iny, and had broken his lantern, &c
but were then in irons.
