$0 THE TURKS AND GREEKS. TRIESTE, OCT. 2.—Since the dreadful massacres winch took place in the Island of Cyprus, the sum mer before last, the want of news from that island made us imagine that tranquillity had Succeeded their first stitt.,..sms. We inthilged in this pleasing idea with the more confidence, us there has never been the smallest symptom or iodieation of insur rection is the island of Cyprus. A letter written by the English Consul to one of his relations who Las resided in our city since the troubles of the East, has dispelled the illusion. This letter, which cer tainly canuut be suspected, is to the following ettect " Cvrnus, Ara. I.s.—Sixty-two towns and vil lagesof this unhappy island have totally disappeared --only their ruins remain to attest the barbarity of their destroyers; and yet the rage of these blood raained raonsters is not yet appeased. A baud of wretches very lately repaired to Morphon, where they destroyed every thing with fire and sword— the women and children were for the most part taken and confined for several days in private houses, without food ; those who were not destroyed by hunger were 'mina together with the houses. Every hour is marked by murdets in all parts of the island. The christians are hunted like wild beasts. " It is Ali* upon churches, and the ministers of the Christian Religion, that these stupid Turks con tinue to exercise their fury. At St. Niopa, after killing or taking prisoners the inhabitants in the raidst of peace, they burnt the images of the church, and transformed the edifice into a stable. At Chry so-Ritjatissa, the church of Aspro Panugia was changed into a masque. Very lately the Zabit, (sub-governor) of Uyrinia, at the head of a bandit) furious wretches, entered the convent of Pantelei- moo, and after having saddled and bridled the monks like beasts of burden, they mounted on their backs, and so rode about the country. The gover nor of the island, a man equally ferocious and stu pid, lately sent his Covas (the performers of his orders) to the monastery of Kicou, where some Ca loyers (ur Anchorets) still remained. This officer no less cruel than his master, made several of these poor solitaires expire in tortures, among oths:rs, Father Sylvester, who was known throughout the island. The rest dispersed, leaving the monastery deserted. " The Turks then set fire to the environs. The conflagration continued 25 days, gradually extend ing to the neighbouring districts. Several fine ibrests of fruit trees, vineyards, &c. have fallen a prey to the flames. The damage done by this fire .is incalculable. A tract of country, 35 leagues in extent, formerly so remarkable for its high cultiva. lion and fertility, is now nothing more than a heap of ashes. "-That part of the island which is occupied by troops of Mahemed Pacha of Egypt, alone enjoys tranquillity. Selih Bay, who commands fur the Paella, makes his troops observe the strictest disci pline. If Mahemed Ali should withdraw his troops, as there is reason to fear, there would no longer be any security fin the Fr nks."—(lt is the English Consul who speaks.) (EXTRACT OF A LITTCR FROM SMYRNA, SEPT. 4.) " The desolation of Scio, which owes part of its misfortanes to the imprudent zeal of Mr. D. who drew the Greeks into the snares of the Turks, by publishing a deceitful amnesty, in which, we sup pose he believed, cannot be oonvared with the ra vages exercised in Cypru , : by the Mabometans We long refused to credit the new crimes which have deluged with blood the territory of Paphos, Arnatebuut and Famagousta; but the veil is torn; and the enemy of the christian world no longer con ceals his monstrous deeds. Since the mouth of July, 25,000 christians of all ages and both sexes, have flilien under the hands of the executioners, that is, the Turkish soldiery, for the stake and the gibbet would not suffice fur the impatient cruelty of the cirettalcised tigers. Seventy-four villages, con taining upwards of eighteen thousand christians are nu mule. The old men and the married women have perished—the rest have been sold, to be con veyed into the interior of Asia Minor, except the children under four years of age, who have been killed or thrown into the sea. The churches, the moinasteries. in a district of 43 square leagues, have disappeared ; the priests and monks, without excep tion, have received the crown of martyrdom, and perished in dreadful torments. Yet there has been no insurrection in Cyprus But, the will of the Sultan, has sworn to exterminate christianity ; he strikes, and the Egean Sea and the islands are dyed with blood. " Be not surprised if the miserable Journal here dues not disclose such crimes; they would hinder the cause it has embraced, and the wish of the Franks, of whom he is the echo, it is to see the Greeks annihilated. I will pint out another time the men who arc base enough, to have speculated on the ,misfortunes of the claristians, the fortunes ssquired by the sale of an asylum and protection to THI the wretched, and the monopoly of blood exercised in these days of c.irna4e and mourning. It is not yet time to speak. Above all, I must not omit to mentain, that the part of Cyprus occupied by one uf the Commanders ()I' Mehemet Ali, Paella of Egypt, is trumptil—the christiaus are protected there ; accordingly, it is publickly said at Constan tinople and bore, that the Viceroy of Egypt is a re:lipid°, a traitor, and that as soon us it can be done, he will Lye the merited fate of Ali, Paella of Joannina." LEIPiIC, OCT. 11.—The fair does not turn out so well as was expected. Even silk goods do not meet with great demand ; nor is the business done in leathers and woollens satisfactory. Articles of luxury have had a pretty good sale. Cottons are in general cheap, and the English are said to throw tilerla away as Ils REG ISTEII LISTON MAIL. CORTES.-SITTTING OF OCIODER 16. Accounts were communicated, brought by the Fnmeh galley Etta, in 35 days from Pernambuco, and by the Portuguese brig Gloria, in 10 days from Fayal. Among the passengers on board the awl was the Brigadier Jose Correa de Mello, Military Governor of the pnwince of Pernambuco, who stated that on the 3d of August there had been a general rising of the troops of Pernambuco, in which they proclaimed urestricted obedience to his Highness, as Prince. &gent, and perpetual defender of Brazil, and to the general constitutional and legis ative as sembly of that kingdom : that 41 Europeans sus pected of adhering to Portugal were immediately arrested and put into the prisons of the fortress, in order, it was said, to save them from the popular fury. The Governor, thereilire, thought proper to give up his command, which he resigned to the officer of highest rank in theprovince, Colonel Jose Carnello Pescara, who was afterwards suspended by the Provisional Junta. On the 29th of the same month, when he was already embarked, the expedi tion arrived, which were deipatched from Rio de Janeiro, against Bahia, composed of the frigate Llaicorm, and the corvette Maria da Gloria Caroliaa, and Literal, commanded by the Chief of Division Lamare. This officer, having learnt at sea the expe dition of tha Calypso corvette, feared to enter Bahia in a hostile manner; and pi °ceding immediately to Alagoas, there landed with ammunition, the coin. manner of the troops of the expedition Labatour, and the next in command ; and this was all he knew on the subject, having sailed on the 30th.— lie delivered two bags u! despatches. The Captain of the Gloria said that there had hen a tumult at the beginning oflast month in the island of Terceira, about 2,000 persons having assembled to oppose the exportation of corn from the island, but the tumult was soon appeased by the Governor and the Corregidor. MR. DOWRING'S CASE. I MULOGISE SCR MER, Wednesday, 0ct.23, twit o'clock.- 1 have been admitted to Mr. Bow ring, being the first English man to whom he has spoken fur the last 12 days, Mr. Hutchin son having seen him only fur a few minutes when first arrested. ! At a late hour last night a new interrogatory of four pages ar rived at Ildulogoe, with orders front the French Government that the Secret should be taken 01l when Mr. Bowring had answered the questions. He was examined tide morning; one of the (mations, Mr. Bearing tells me, ran nearly thus :—Did I not Fab% kr apply to you fur funds to procure the release of the conspirators recently executed, and did you not come to France for that purpose!—Another, Were you nut connected this way with the families of Lady Hutchinson and Lady Oxford, long known for their political intrigues against the reigning family (enamors &pais longterm pour lour iniriyaes polifiyiter mitre le fitmills leynamte ! ) and was not the lioit,e iu the Hue de Clielly, in I'aris the rower:sous Mr this intrigue t Mr. Bowring is quite well : durinr , the day he is allowed the use of the gaoler's room, but at night lie is lucked up with the common prisouei ain a most hilly hole. lie has written to his wife by this conveyance ; but there is uo order fur bis release ; nor will there be until the return of the messenger from Paris with the answers to the interrogations. lie will then be either released or an act of accusation made out for his trial. Mr. Hutchinson is now with him. There was an order for his transfer to Faris several days ago, but he took advantage of an article in the code which declares that no man shall be forged from the spot where arrested until an act of accusation is prepared against him. The order of the arrest was in these words-.... For the facts with whie.h lie is charged.' Sir C. Stuart lets declared that there was no charge against Sir H. Wilboo, and that be bus written to that elfect to the liritish Gus ernment.—Sir Robert was only too popular. Mr. 111.11c6inson ass going to Paris, but lie is advised not to go. Mr. llutchinsoo is of c.strso very indignant at the mention of his name; but be assured that all will cod in smoke. There is no charge against my i.pdin idual which can seriously affect him. Mr. Missing says that his a originated in an intrigue. of which one of the first subjects of France was the head, and that he can prove this by iiiivument. The despatch of the l'ortuguese Ambassador, which was sereed on Mr. Hoisting, was received by him on Thursday.-- The seal had evidently been broken, and part of the contents Lad been stolen by the French Government.

On the receipt of the order I applied through the proper official channel, for communication of the motives, which had determined the Freneti Government to adopt the measure. No written answer could be obtained, hat I received a verbal surance, "That the measure was not accusatory, but one which was rendered necessary in my own interest, as well as that of the French Government, by my political position, which made me in spite of myself (nealyre moi) a foyer or rallying point for the opponents of the Frenoh Government to gather round, and under the shelter of it to circulate their opinions." I shall, Gentlemen, only remark upon this declaration, whidi I have given as accurately as memory could serve, that if the temporary residence of an individual is Franco, violutios no law, hut possessing the most honourable friendships, and a dis tinguished portion of public favonr, fur his proved abliorrenee of vindic.ive sptent of Government, and undisguised attachment to the rights and liberties of independent nations, he incompatible with the safety or repose of the exisling French Government, it is not, and I trust I may say it without presumption, for you to feel humillitton, on finding that your Representative is the individual so proscribed.
