1t will be seen BY an article under our TO-
reign head. that the account OF the massa-
Gre of the garrison of Missolonghi, as pub
lished in our paper of last week, is entirely
discreditcd. We cannet conceive what mo-

such deliberate and base falsehood. AL
though the late account Of the fall of this
strong hold of liberty, in Greece, is, upon
crcditable authority contradicted, yet we

implicitly relied upon. The next arrival
from Europe will probably furnish informa-
ton more satisfactory and conclusive, upon
this very interesting subject.
