Just in a letter coming from Corfu referred to 25 June when Cochrane with 80 ships off Candia fought with the Egyptian squadron of 120 ships and defeated the latter in a battle of 48 hours. The Egyptian squadron had landing troops and a large amount of war stores on board. The Turkish squadron went back to Navarino.
