or said by our neighbors, that while they are
ministering to the wants Of the Greek PEG.
ple, we are looking on with Indifference. II
is truly humiliating to reflect, that the princi
pal aid by which two British officers are
keeping the fleets and armies Of Greece to-
gether, should be derived form the Continen-
tai subscriptions, while not an effort has been
made to assist them from this country.
without dwelling on that part of our du-
ties towards Greece, which is dictated by re-
IigiOn and Christian charity, | am more anx-
IOus to convince you, AS a bOndhUlder, that
AS mere question of interest, you are bound
to second the magnanimous intentions of the
High ContractIcg Parties, by enabling the
provisional Government to perfect the system
of naval and military organization common
ced under the aspces of our gallant country
men. Need say, that prompt measure to
this effect, on the part of bondh0iderS gener-
ally, would afford the likliest means Of an
early dividend 1t is evident that the three
Cabinets, cannot, in the actual state of things,
come forward to the relief of nation which
they have virtually recognized; but l am
convinced any measure adopted by the cred
itors and friends of Greece, would be viewed
with indulgence if it did not receive their sup.
port.-At all events, it is for you as consider
able holder of Greek Stock, and one who
has already distinguished himself in Behalf Of
the cause, to confer with your friends similar
~ situated, and decide on the propriety of a
General Meeting. to consider on the best
mode of securing the future interest of all
parties.
"In the event of public Meeting, of the
Greek Bondholders. need scarcely suggest
the Importance of there being deputation
appointed to wait on the Count Capodistria,
who would, am sure, most gladly give eve
ry information on the future prospects of the
creditors. The nomination of his Excellen-
cy as Civil Governor of Greece, presents a.
mother and powerful guarantee for the fulfil
ment of her engagementsin this country.
have thought 1t superfuous to dwell on the
facilities which Greece will have for re-paying
her debts, this will be amply proved the mo-
n1ent the treaty of Intervention is carried into
effect.
My anxiety to perform the promises
have made both to Gen. Church and Lord
Cochrane on leaving Greeca, may probably
induce me to forward copy of my letter to
the Editors of the London papers and thro'
whose medium, hope to make this appeal
known throughout the kingdom. Indeed
should be ungrateful, were to omit this OPP
portunity of declaring, that if my poor la
bours have been any use to Greece, it is alto
sether due to the generous support of the
press.
"Relying on your taking this subject into
| immediate consideration, believe me to be,
yours ever truly.

two miles Oniy. The expedition arrived ut latitude

Capt. Parry and his men would have obtained the pc

to be unattanabe by any physical effort. Nearly in
