As collections are still making for the Greeks, and it is expected another vessel will be despatched from this port in the course of 9 or 3 months with provisions and clothing. We take the liberty to suggest to those who are disposed to contribute to this object, that provisions are at least as much needed by that depressed people as clothes. In conversa- tiOn with our very respectable cOuntryman, Mir. Miller,w has so long resided in Greece and who was the agent in distributing the cargoes of the two vessels sent the last year. we learnt of him that the sufferings though out Greece for the want of food were of the most severe and threatening description. They have been unable for several years to culti- vate the ground, and of course have derived no supplies from their own resources during that long period. In the mean time, their fruit trees have been in great measure de- stroyed, which necessarily adds much to their privations. The Morea presents general scene of desoation--almOst every town, vil- lage and habitation, having been burned or destroyed. 1t is Mir. Miller's belief, that not one family in twenty, in the PelopOnnessus. enjoys the shelter of ahouse. They almost all live in caves. or under trees. They are, indeed. extremely destitute of clothes, and the supplies sent from this country will be of very great importance to their comfort, and a great releftO their necessities. But people can endure n scarcity of this kind better than scarcity of food. Mir. Miller is apprehensive that many persons must perish in the course of this year by starvation. In contributing provisions, it may be well to state, that, in his opinion, kiln dried corn meal IS the most safe, and the most uselIl--riee, and other grain, is liable to suffer on the voyage hy vermin, Be, Indian meal beArs transportation well, and is very valuable ,o the inhabitants.
