The City Of Athens Heleasured by
BriK0n6S.

letter from Athens in the MagdeburC Ga.
zette says that the Greek capital is now almost
blOCkaded by brigands '.NO one dares to 90 a
thousand PAGES out of town without an escort,
and even then the undertaking is very danger
Gus one, for The brigaEds are concealed behind
rocks and in bushes, so that the whole of the es-
cOrt might be shot down before their hiding
places could be discovered. The chief of these
brigands is man named SpanOs, who has been
notorious for his daring deeds during the last
thirty years; and il may be said that he holds
the destiEies Of Greece in his hands, for no pro-
gress is possible so long as the present state OF
things exists. The insecurity of property pre-
vents the development OF agriculture. No one
dares to invest capital i'm land whose pro-
duce is sure to be annexed by the brigands.
Nearly every day bands OF peasants are brought
into Athens who have been compelled by the
brigands to furnish them with provisions, &c;
and az the lives OF these unfortunate people are
threatened when they do not comply with such
requisitions, the government only Furnishes them
If they neglect to give information to the au-
thorities. Half of the Greek army has been i'm
pursuit of SpanOs for months; but he and his
band, which consists OF only seven men, are still
close to Athens, and ii is even rumored that he
has on several occasions entered the city with
the object of capturing some high parsonage
whom he would afterward liberate only on the
condition of his being given a large ransom and
a free pardon"
