 meO, Turkish mosque) voting according to his will. Petro Bey having been a be- loved and noble King himself, did not like this unanimous mode of proceeding, and left Nauplia, which no senator had a right to do without presidential permission.- The steamboat found him on part of the coast; and he went on board probably a little against luis own inclination. He was quite anxious to know why he was not 1 permitted to walk before his own house rather than on the fortress of Its Kalee, l with body of soldiers about him. In the mean time, his brother Constantine, (who fell after he had given the blow) was put into prison on some pretext at Tripolitza, near the ancient Mantimea. ] was in the town while he was still in prison. A rev. olution naturally broke out in Maina, the country of the ancient Spartans. We saw in Spetzia brother of Petro, who told us he was king ofthe Spartans, after my friend had unluckily asked him if he were d Pap pas, or priest. Capodistria himself man. aged every public matter, great or small. Hisexpression was, Lassez moi faire je comprends cela." Accordingly he start ed for Maina, I think in a Russian vessel, with $40. 900, which quclled the revolution for six months. We were then travelling in Peloponnesus. As we passed lhe Khan Sakoua, man came out from his hovel and asked US to spend the night there, but our destination was Meligala, short dis tance farther. "Stop at least and take some fresh eggs. What is the President about now at Nauplia 2" he continued.- Communication is very difficult in Greece. What" we replied, "have you not heard that he was gone to Maina, to stop the revolution" "That is beyond his power." But he is to be supported by large body of men, who are now marching in this direction" "No matter those Mainotes lived on the mountains, and they never can be subdued, for they make soup of that," pointing to fine thistle in full bloom. They are indeed worthy descend ants of their ancestors, the Spartans of the black broth age. Besides," continued he, "they met, bishop, priest and all, and swore over their pot of beans, they would have nothing more to do with Babba Ian nes, (Father John) meaning Capodistrias, and that they would consider all his ma gistrates as good as dead"

 When the President returned to Nauplia he found he had carried his resentment a. gainst the family of Mavromichalis, so be- loved in Maina, too far, and sent word to the old soldier in Its-Kalee, if he would recant and confess his error before the Court, he might be set at liberty. Con- fess the error of having left Nauplia The brave old mans answer deserves to be i'm mortal:

 "I'll not come down till see the con- stitution of my country established lmade straight again.) am lame, and without a constitution am afraid they will compel me to walk up again."

 The Greeks are not assassins-they are less SO than almost any other people-but the family of Mavromichalis have been driven to desperation. For ten long years they had struggled, with their fortune and their blood, for the cause of Liberty-and were they, who had been kings, and had sacrificed all to free their country from a Sultan, to be imprisoned on idle pretcnce. and brow-beaten by Russian agent r. Perhaps it would not be difficult to show, that had the Greeks partaken of the nature of some of their southern neighbors. the dark and unjustiiale deed would have been committed more than year ago.
