Wehaicve We can give a satisfactory an

According 10 the Courier, The Prussian Mil
mister 4, the Porte has been recalled, 10 afford
explanations relative to his embassy
"This step, (says the morning Htrald) has
-occasioned some loose speculation, pectinS
the par, that Russia viii take in the event Of
rupture between the TWO Powers. According
TO this account, which is given under the head
Of Frankfort the Oder, The Court Of Berlin
has all eady come 10 the dr6niIve resolution Of
Meeting its interes;s with those Of the Rus
sian Cabinet. In proof of this assertion, the
appointment Of NV Prussian Ambassador 10
the Porte is adduced; whereas, 20 Us, it appears
capable of very different inierpre alton; and
we look al it as an indication OF desire rather
friendly TO peace than otherwise. If tie King

sia may, on account at The matt imonial alliance
between the two Powers, CHI, OK her jralousy Of
Russian ambition, but il is quite preposterous
TO suppose that she will be instrumental at the
expense OF her own and the general sCcuriy."
This intelligence says the Morning Herald,
which hid transpired before, but had been gene
rally discredited, is now placed beyond any
doubt whilst il win induce some persons, and
those not the worst informed, 10 conclude that
they have still much 10 learn before they can
equal sR"ir enemies either ircoul age or skill.
The Courier says-"We should be glad to re-
ceive more detailed accounts from Greece than
have yet been sent 10 this country, because we
wish TO find the Greeks making every excrton
TO raise a land force capable Of acting against
the Turks, and forcing them to eyacuate their
territory. Much may &c done by the Allied
Powers, but much also must be and can only
be dove by rhemselv,s. lbrahiln Pacha seems
to have remained altogether unmoles:ed. He
proceedsi rom one poin 10 another, and traverS-
ing the Morea from west 10 east, destroys
towns without obstacle or resistance. The Ar
mls,ice has for a time put an end to hostile o.
perations in that quarter"
1t is stated in the Aussbursh Gazette, ,ha,
lbrahim Pacha has been summoned by the Lord
High Commissioner to evacuate the Morea,
but that he has refused every proposal Of this
nature. Count Capo d'Istria, on the contrary,
is said to have declared that he would hinder
Ibrahim from leaving the Morea, ill he had
delivered and given back the Greeks whom he
had reduced 10 slavery.
