CANEA, JUNE 11.-The secret object of the President of Greece, in his measures with regard to this island, is to cause such difficulties and embarrassments that the Allied Powers, being tired out with the eternal confusion, may at length concede what he cannot obtain otherwise. Unhappily he is but too successful in rendering the unhappy situation of the island more complicated. The French brig Alcyone, Lieutenant Dubourdiett, is come to relieve the Yolage. The Commander, like his predecessor, desired to have a conference with Captain Hann, the delegate of the President of Greece to the Council of Crete. This conference took place on the Sth, in the village of Calives. The French Commander announced the speedy arrival of the English Ambassadors at Constantinople, by whom the fate of Crete would he determined, and that a cessation of hostilities was much to be desired. Captain Hann replied that it was not in his power to make any engagements on this subject; that the Greeks were under several chiefs, who carried on war on their own account, and listened to his remonstrances only when they approved of them ; that an armistice was not desirable for the interests of the Greek insurgents, because only the contest preserved in them the love of their country and of liberty. 16.—The remonstrances of the Officers sent successively to this station by Admiral Rosamel appear to have had an effect. The bloodshed has ceased, an armistice de facto exists, and though the two parties retain their positions, some communications take place between them, which manifest less acrimony than usual, and rather a wish on both sides for a reconciliation. Count Capo d'lstria, however, has hitherto replied to positive proposals by vague declarations only. Suleiman Pacha requested the Commander of the Alcyone to invite the Greeks to go to several cities of Crete to trade, and to procure the provisions which they cannot get on their mountains. He pro • lathed them entire security. These beneficent offers were laid before the Council of Crete. A Papa answered— " The Cretans want for nothing; Greece supplies them with all things in abundance. They cannot, and will not, conclude any arrangement with the Turks. They have taken up arms to conquer their freedom, and will never lay them down again. They will sooner die than yield. If they have no bread, they will feed on the roots which grow on their mountains." This is not the first time that the Council of Crete has held this language. The mission of the French Officers is confined to attempts to effect a reconciliation, and has already done much good. Fort Carabousa is commanded by 31. Fouche d'Aubigny, a French Officer in the Greek service.  The snne Paper, of the 27th of June, says the English naval officer (Captain Hinchett), who was going to enter the service of the Sultan, has not been able to agree with the Ministers of the Porte on the terms of his appointment, and is going to return to England, and had arrived at Smyrna. The regular troops in Smyrna, about 1,500 in number, have received orders to go to Constantinople. SYRA, JuNe Kalergi, the Extraordinary Commissioner of the island, resigned his post to the general regret of the inhabitants, as during the short time he has filled it he has given numerous proofs of justice and disinterestedness.  Nnrces, Joty 26.—Lieut.-Gen. Muffling, accompanied by two aide-de-camps, has embarked here on board a Neapolitan man of war for Smyrna, whence it is said lie will go to Constantinople. It is true there is a Mr. Fonton here, but there is another person of the same name at the Russian head-quarters. _ _ .  VIENNA, JutY3l.--Aletalliques, ; Bank Shares, 136.  The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, we perceive, has issued a proclamation, offering a re. ward for the apprehension of some Ribandmen concerned in the late murder of one, and the wounding of six other Brunswickers, three of whom have since died. This proclamation is a very proper and just proceeding on the part of the
