the command of Ibrahim Pacha, a wellinformed, active, and bold young man A corps of ten thousand men will be sent by land to the same destination, under the command of Osman Aga one thousand men will march every week, until ihe w hole are on the way. These troops are said to be fine soldiers, under good discipline, and have European engineers and surgeons. Thus the Greeks, single-handed and alone, have to meet this array of strength and intelligence ; poor, distracted, and sunk from what they have Ivicn, the Greeks have carried on a war for several years past unparalleled in ihe history of the world. The great battles of ancient
Greece verc decided in a campaign or , itwo; but in this protracted war of cxlcrf S. Vmination, with all their calamities, they
have still gained ground ; anil the hopes of the world arc stronger now than at any further period of the conflict for their lib eration from the thraldom of Turkish power. Whatever may be the fate of Grcr-r, it Y. ill be some comfort to us that
