He seems to be more a braggart than a hero. We shall see what he will do in Greece, for this cradle of civilization is as unknown to us as Ethiopia was to the Greeks. If their posterity should succumb in this struggle, the Spirit of the Times will have some more bitter pills to swallow. He will be told that he ought to have waited till the Sultan and his Divan should be led, of their own accord, to treat the Greeks as citizens. It would be observed that the Turkish Government was already in a fair way, for that in the late proceedings against the Armenians, it did not, as formerly, cut off the people's heads first, and seize their property afterwards, but this time had first confiscated their property, and then cut off their heads. At all events, we think that the Greeks will fail, without foreign support." ST.
