I THE GREEKS.
The Greeks have been remarkably sue
cessful, of late, in their contest with the
/ Turks, and instead of being hunted out like
wild beasts upon the mountains, have actu-
ally assumed the offensive. According TO
accounts from different places, they have
since the opening of the present campaign,
taken possession of Salona, Livadia, Won
! it.a, the pass of Thermopyla, Lepanto, the
/ Castle of Roumelia, and far-faned Mlsso-
longhi. The occupation of several fortress
es in the Morea by the French leaves the
Greeks quite at liberty to pursue their op-
erations elsewhere; and the present situa-
ton Of the Sultan in regard 10 Russia, rem
ders him unable to send any considerable
force to oppose their progress. Should
their success in future be equal to that OF
the past, they will soon be in possession OF
all Western Greece.-N Y. Jour. OF Com.

Florence, May II. Col. Heidegger cor
firms, in letter dated Napoli di Romania,
the ID of May, all the advantages gained
by the Greek troops in Livatlia, under the
command of General Church. The Castle
of Rumela surrendered to the brother of
the President on the Doth March. Thus
the passage of the Dardanees of Lepanto,
which is of so much Importance to the
Greeks, is in theil possession. Missolon-
CHI was OH the point of surrendering. The
President states that the Turks have cam
! dldly thanked him for the conduct of the
Greek troops, as well as the punctual ex-
ecutlon of the equalization. Three compa-
MES of infantry, one company of artillery,
! and division of regular cavalry were detach-
ed TO garrison the Castle of Rumelia. Col.
/ Heidegger adds-our regular organization
advances sensibly. This corps consists now
of $3.50 men. All these troops are newly
clothed in the European style, and com
pletely armed and equipped.
