Files of the («i!)raltar C lironiclc have
reached us, to the 2-lth July, in vvdiich we
find an extract of a letter copied from the
Aui sSiir;; (Ja/ette, dated Alc\an(!ria,

Pone had, al the retjuest of the }
roy of Ki;ypl, confided the j)acifu ation ol

by ceni'erriiii^ unlimited powers on Ibra-
ham Facba, who was to open the cam-

to the inhabitants, if they returned to
tlii'ir foriuer vassalage ; but it they ob-
slin ilely “ reject ecpiitable proposilioni,’
the\ will be extirminatcd. Ten i’riy;ales
had been sent by the Poric to assist hi this
humane business, to which the \ iijerov
had added 35 other vessels, vv hich were
to convey 3.j,00() troops lo the ^lorea,
tvvt-thirds of which had been trained al

said to be o(/icial, and to have been sent to ^
the A'ui^sburij Ciazette bv the ayent of
Mthemel Ali, residiuLj at J rieste.
'vVhelher this staiemewl be true or false,
it appears by letters from Smyrna, that
the Turks under the Captain Pacha, true
to their svstem of exteriiiinalion, drench
