ofthe captain Vachi on the 1 UK inst ' The l) istlc having held uui against the Greek assailants, was speedily relieved by the Turks landing in great force, w ho immediately rushed towards the city. It appears the armed Greeks made but a feeble resistance to the first shock and led, abandoning the town to the fury of the Purks. The inhabitants with their families having remained in their houses, an universal scene of carnage commenced, and all the Gtetks were put, to the ewoid, exiept such of the women and childicuas the Turks chose to spare, and thousands of these wetc driven into the Castle. It is computed that not less than 15,000 souls petished ; and I think it probable, that, knowing the crowded Stae of the town, many of the principal merchants must be among the number, and must of the families of these have been destioyed, or their .vives and children dragged imo brutal slavery.

might possibly go to war. Wc find, as

indications of it, heavy subscriptions in.behalf of the Greeks throughout the Russian Empire ; a fall in the funds at Vienna and at Paris, a rise of 6 in London, and 4 fr. in Marseilles, in the price ol Saltpeter ; a coalition between Austria, Prussia and Russia ; a decline in the price of Exchange on London ; and a number of other facts of an equally decisive nature. Will not the news at the close of May undoubtedly bi ing tidings of war I France has been long enough compelled to submit to the ignominious yoke imposed upon her by a million of Foreign Bayonets. Will she not shake it oflf as soon as she finds the other powers by the cars ? And will not these events lead to a general war in Europe ?
