THE WESTERN SUN. rXCIiWES, SEPTEMBER 17, 1825.

The feelings of the citizens of this place were outraged, and the laws of the state set at defiance, on Saturday evening last, by a Mr. Seebolt, from Shawncetown, III. arresting in a public street, a negro man named Dan, tying and forcing him away. -It is said some of the citizens of the town assisted in the transaction. As the whole business is likely to undergo a civil investigation, I shall make no tomments upon it. Appointment by the governor. Dr. Livincston Dunlap, has been appointed

Adj. Genl.of the Militia of Indiana, vice col. Posey, resigned. Ind. Journal. CHILLICOTHE, Aug. 23. The Ccnal. We learn that this noble work is progressing with great rapidity. About 1200 laborers are employed on the Portage and Licking summits, as well as z considerable number on the Miami route, near Hamilton. Contracts have already been made, to the amount of near one million of dollars, at prices much below the estimates. Hands can be had in abundance, at the rate of S3 per month ; and if the next legislature will so modify the act of the last session, as to authorize the fund commissioners to borrow as much money as they can employ to advantage, the whole of the work will be completed at a much earlier period than was originally contemplated. Supporter. Late Foreign Intelligence. The Editors of the New York Evening Post have received their regular files of London papers to the evening of the 1 5, and of Liverpool, to the 1 6th ot July. Lord Cochrane is said, in several of the papers, to have some intention of going to the assistance of the Greeks. THE GREEKS. On looking over numerous files cf p i

pes, received onFiiday, by the arrivals from Europe, the editors of the Post find a variety of contradictory statements, respecting the progress of the war in Greece. It is again said, that Navarino had fallen into the hands of the Turks, Which seems rather extraordinary, after the signal victories, of which there is no doubt, obtained by the Greeks, bothby acaand land, over the forces of Redschid Pacha. Hut, on the supposition cf the account of the surrender being true, it is regarded on all hands, as a matter of little consequence, as the efforts of the Egyptian chief had been paralyzed, by the total destruction cf his fleet at Moden; and the bare rumor, that Navarino vvas in danger of falling into the hands of their enemies, had infused so determined a spirit cf resistance among the Greeks, that the whole country was in arms. new and more efficient organization had taken place in the government, and a general amnesty having been clTcred to all who had shown a disposition fo rovolt, they had united with their brethren, in opposing the common cnetny. This led, as we noticed yesterday in a postscript, to the achievements of the Hew victories by the patriots, which, at once, remove all apprehensions, as to their final triumph over the invaders This gratifying- intelligence is contained in letters received at Paris from Italv, daed 3d July. It appears that three divisions of the Turkish army had advanced into the Moica. The first division was destroyed near Ambliani, by Gen. Gouras, the commander in chief, who perished in battle. The second division was besieged in the fortress cf Salonc; and the third, after having been beaten, had dispersed and fled towards Nogr;pont. The reports respecting the situation of Ibrahim Pacha, were contradictory some stating that he was surrounded by the Greeks at Messcric others, that lie ha 1 been defeated by Colocotroni, and forced to retrace his steps upon Modon. In addition to the triumphs, the fleet of the Turkish Admiral was attacked near Mitylenc by the Grecian Admiral, Sachtury, and compelled, after considerablc loss, to fly for shelter toCandia, pursued by the Greeks. It is admitted, in accounts from Constantinople, of the lOih June, that on this occasion, the Turkish Admiral lost two vessels, and that a third, which was driven ashore by a storm, was set fire to by the crew, who escaped. By the last accounts, the remains of the Egvptian, as well as the Turkish fleets were blockaded by Sachtury, at Suda, in the isle ofCandia. These repeated triumphs seem, at least, to have convinced the European powers, that it would be good policy to show some countenance to the Greeks; it being stated in the Paris papers, that the French Gen. Guilleminot, Ambassador at Constantinople had sent one of his aids to the More3, to confer with the pa

triots. Russia is also said to have shown a disposition to favor their cause, and to have secretly aflbrded them assistance, in their late contests with the Turks. The advices from Zante, dated 5th of June, give extracts from the Greek journals, respecting the measures adopted for the promotion of education. According to these advices, the Greek government was proceeding with the organization of public schools, throughout the territory of Greece, as steadily and tranquilly, as if no danger menaced the country. A decree had been issued by the Senate, appointing an Inspector General of Education, and fixing the nature of his duties. By another decree, a central school has been established at Argos. At Athens, there were already five schools; two for mutual instruction, consisting of 400 scholars; two for the study of ancient Greek, and the Italian and French lan

guages, and one for history and philosophy. Provisional Government of Greece. The President of the Executive power notifies. What God is greater than the God of our fathers? The enemy's fleet had apperred near Cavodore. and threatened from afar, the islands of Hydra and Spezzia. The government has been forced to call together, all the soldiers scattered in the environs, to defend the centre of the liberty of Greece. The fleet composed of about 100 ships of war and transports, having on board, troops and provisions of all kinds, had been disper sed, after an obstinate combat with our amen on the 1st and 2d of June , between Cavodore 8c Andros. Topal Par; a, with much difficulty, saved himse:!, with 22 of his vessels. The second squadron of our fleet is in pursuit of them In the midst of the action, an enemy's frigate and the Admiral's ship, were burnt by out fire ships Topal Pacha was not, however, on board his ship; he had probably supposed that this time, as before, our lire

ships would be directed against the Ad

miral. Several esseis and another frigate, which were dispersed and pursued, ran aground on the coasts of the isles of Tinoand Syra. The greater number of the transports were taken and carried in

to Ilvd1 a and Spezzia. The remnant of

the enemy's fleet is dispersed about the Egean sea, and according to all appear ances, will fall into our hands. What makes us hope lor the total destruction cf the enemy's fleet is, that the fir:t squadron of our il.-et, yesterday, joined the srco'ifi which fnughr th- hrut'e, ar:c!

both together, will do their utmost, cut off the retreat of the Mahometans.

the Mexican, wholly without stings. The honey which they produce is said to ! be of excellent quality, and is distinguished by a peculiar fragrance ; it is one of : the few products of that singular country j

which serves as food for the natives. By a calculation and estimate, gen. Lafayette, when he returns to France, will have travelled, from the time he left his native soil for this countiy last summer, to the dap of his return, between 16 and 18,000 miles, he has not had a day's sickness in the w hole period.- Bait.
