We have this instant received new de'ails of the victory gained by the Greeks en the 14th July, which are of the greatest interest As already stated, the Hellenians were forced on ihe 1 3th, atter fighting valiantly, to retreat, and thry took up anew position in the Straits of Thermopylae. Encouraged by their success the evening before, the Turks attempted, on the 14th, to force all the pas sivres: but seven hundred brave sol

diers, under the command of another Leonidas. young Bzzaris, stopped their progress till nifiht, repeating thousand time the cry of Lleutheria (Liberty.) They defended with the greatest heroism the principal defile Lirissa. During the ba'tlc, Grecian women, leading with them boys of ten years of age, who followe'd the example of their mothers, hurled down stones on the Turks from the tops of the mountains. In general, the Hellenians fought with an enthusiasm, great almost heyond example. Their cry was, "Death to the barbarians, Vengeance Our Liroihers were massacred at Scio.'

Fni The legislature a.s-einlilcd on ilonday lail, and w ere oriranized as von see in the pul.Jic prin's. From frecpi'cnt and free t iiivciaticns with nicmheri from the diilerent arts of the Mate, I am fninly persuaded there will he hut little dillerencc of opinion among us as to tlie measures ncccj -ary for the public welfare. Ihe following measures will principally occupy die attention of the Legislature: la The currency and measures intended to improve its value. Fortius purpose the astern of calls is now established, will he ui.dcv ialinglv adhered to; no person here dreams "of further is.-ues of paper, Imt all are engaged in devi-ii g measures to withdraw it Irom eiu illation, and of course raise its value. The rrpular rail-, lc.w-vfrt will not he increased nor, in my opinion, will discriminating calls be permitted as recommended by the Governor, f have no doubt the flank of Kentucky will be permitted to pay over the larger part of tho block owned by the state in that institution to the Bank of Ihe Commonwealth, but not tlie whole as recommend..! hi the Message, Lea v.: is given to introduce a Bill, which 1 l,fj no doubt w ill nase to mm-

pcl the payment in specie of all contracts hereaUcr made, where the same shall bo plainly so expressed upon its face, without allow '-..z a longer replevin than three months. The oiher subjects noticed in the Message will, no doubt, receive a share of attention -uch as Public Education, the Penitentiary, Lunatic Hospital, cc. 1 am favorably impressed with the mild and moderate views of the members of the House, and think the prospect fair for a short and pleasant se-Mou; and from the measures proposed, which will in my opinion, no doubt carry, our currency will in a month or six weeks improve from 20 to 40 per cent such as steady calls, prohibition against further loans, paying over stock, sale next spring of public lands, &e.
