TO be extending. The insurgents, Arnauts and
Greeks, are estimated as 1000 strong, and they
appear, in the few triHing conflicts which have
taken place with the Turkish troops, to have been
successful. Great numbers Of young mon and
many officers were leaving Athens to join tho in.
surgents, and the government Of Greece is dc
scribed as powerless In the emergency. Wetake
the following from the London Morning Ch,onieis:
"ATHEss, Fs5rnary I'll have ofen repeated to
yon that the Christian population OF Turkey We're
exasperated at the treatment they arc subjected TO
under the Turks, and that they were only waiting
tor favorable moment TO throw OH the yoke.
Facts are now gathering rapidly 10 prove the sor-
rectness of my information. Four provinces in
Lower Epirus haze already risen; they are the
districts of Sconlicaria, Radovtza, Zoumerka and
Agrapha. More than two thousand men are
already under arms; their flag is the Greek cross
on blue ground, with the motto of the .Laba-
rum the ancient standard of ByzantiuM. Con
luer by this They have issued proclapation,
in which they said that, being no longer able 10
ton Of all law, the pllage Of their property, the
dishonor of their daughters, they have taken arms
TO reconquer their liberty, and to continue tho
work of 1921, winch for them has only been inter-
rupted.' And they then take an oath TO die 10 the
last man rather than ever again submit themselves
TO the Turks.
The governor of Arta sent against them de.
iachment commanded by Zeinebey. whose fero-
cious soldiers, in passing through the village OF
Peta, paged and desecrated the church, but they
soon met by the insurgents, who beat them
completely, killing considerable number Of them
and their chief himself A second engagement
has taken place since since, in which the Turks
again beaten, and the news arrived yester.
day that the town Of Arta was on the point Of
being taken, and that Prevesa was in capitulation.
The insurrection was rapidly gaining ground, and
had extended far as Souli, that formidable nest
of warriors whom even the terrible Ali Pasha
never could subdue.
"a great number of the inhabitants ofthe Ionian
islands had also crossed over 10 Eprus, 10 help
their countrymsn. The people Of free Greece are
full of enthusiasm, which the government ro-
strains with the greatest difficulty. and at the ex
pense of its own popularity. The son of the cele.
brated chief Caraskaki who fell in the first revo-
luton at the siege Of Athens, left his regiment and
proceeded TO the frontier join the insurgents, to
whom his name would have given great weight;
but the government has succeeded in bringing
him back TO his du y"
The Greek rising appears TO have extended to
the lonian Islands, and even to Asia Minor.

do, upon nearly every subject of civil polity and
