Before the United Squadrons re
move from this theatre on which they
have gained so completed victory, the
Vice Admiral, Commander in Chief
is DESTROYS of making known TO tht
whole Of the officers, seamen and ma
rines, employed in them, the. high
sense which he has of their gallant
and steady conduct on the 2Oth inst. 49,
tie is persuaded that there is no in
stance of the feet of any one country
showing more complete union OF spirit,
and oil action than was exhibited by
the squadrons of the Allied Powers
together, in this bloody and destruc
live battle. lie attributes TO the bright
example set by his gallant colleagues,
the Rrar Admirals, the able and cor
dial support which the ships OF the
several squadrons gave to each othet
during the beet and confusion of thu
battle Such union of spirit. and OF
purpose; such GOODNESS and bravery
under fire, and such consequent preci
sion in the use of their guns ensured
"a victory over the well prepared ar
engagements of greatly superior mum
bers; and the whole Turkish and e
gytian fleets have paid the penalty OF
their treacherous breach of faith.
The boasted Ibrahim pacha promis
ed not to quit Navarin, or oppose the
Allied feet and basely bl oke his word
The Allied commanders promised to
destroy the Turkish and Egyptian
fleets, if single gun was fired at
either of their flags; and, with the
assistance Of the brave men whom
they have had the satisfaction of com
handing, they have performed thei'
promise to the very letter. Out OF

there remain only one frigate and fit
teen smaller vessels in state never

ry cannot be gained without great
sacrifice of life; and the commander
in chief has to deplore the loss of many
of The best and bravest men which the
feet contained. The consolation is,
that they died in the service 81 their
country, and in the cause of suffering
humanity
The Commander in chief returns
his most cordial thanks to his noble
colleagues. the two rear admirals, for
the able manner in which they direct
ed the movements Of their squadrons,
and to the captains, commanders, off
GERS. seamen and royal marines, who
so faithfully obeyed their orders, and
so bravely completed the destruction
of their opponents
