Our the sl'ipa acco npanied by our vessels, sailed against the ships of the enemy and threw them into complete disorder, ob.iged them to retire with disgrace, much farth th in their two former attempts. You nay easily conceive with what ecu-ra-: this nappy result inspired our men, and, on the contrary, how discouraging it was for the enemy, and principally for those troops who had been collected on tiic mountains of Asia Minor, and were no.v witnesses of the defeat of their fleet.

The rest of the Turkish fleet has become a prey to terror, and wc hope that this night will witness its flight. There arrived here yesterday, nine vessels from Spezzia and one from Ipsara, Sc there are just ariivtd three more from Spezz'a and four from Ipsara. We have just been honored with your esteemed despatches of the 30th ult. in which you order us to send 7 vessels to cape Coloni, and to leave here 18 others. We shall execute your commands ; but we take the liberty most respectfully to suggest to you that it seems advisable to assemble here as many vessels as possi sible. and all the fire ships, to attack and entirely destroy the fleet of Constantino pie now that fear has seized it; and afterwards we will proceed with all our vessels to enconnter the Egyptian fleet.

All charitable institutions in the Uni ted States, and the poor, will be sup plied gratis. If the citizens of the principal cities 8c towns will appoint an agent to order and distribute this medicine to the poor, it will be supplied. This medicine is celebrated for the cure of the following diseases: Scrofula or king's evil, ulcerated putrid soar throat, long standing rhcumatick affections, cutaneous diseases, white swelling and diseases of the bones, and all cases generally of an ulcerous character, and chronick diseases, generally arising in debilitated constitutions, but more especially from syphilis, or affections arising therefrom; ulcars in the layrnx, nodes, Sec.

I have, within the last two years, had an opportunity of seeing several cases of very inveterate ulcers, which having resisted previously the regular modes ol treatment, were healed by the use of Mr. Swaim's Panacea, and I do believe, from what I have seen, that it will prove an important remedy in scrofulous, venereal, and mercurial diseases.

We hone, tin ri lore, that the plans of

the enemy agiinst samos have failed,

since, when he had lost neatly 3.000 men

iti the vessels .vhich weie burned, we saw

that the troops which were on the conti

iu-ut had taken flight; and we aie fully

persuaded, that none of those witnesst d t' is engagement would dare to embark. During these two days, which w ill be for

ever m mo able in our naval history, a French schooner was present, which, we trust, will r late all that occurred. We should have wished that other Europeans ha J also been present at that time, but not on boatd of the Tuikish vessels, like those whom we saw fall into the sea from the vessels which we destroyed; a vorthy recompense for their praiseworthy sentiments and their Christian feelings! May all those who seek to injure our unfortunate country experience a similar fate! We hae buned all our fi e ships we.therefoie, request you to send us others without delay! Wre are a so in want of powder, which we beg may be sent immediately. Worthy fellow-citizens! We have several times experienced that our fire ships are our best weapons, and by their means we hope to efiect stitl more signal triumphs during this campaign. Our seamen are inspired with the greatest energy, and possess considerable abilities;
