Augsburg,
7 July. The newspaper Allgemeine Zeitung published an item dated
Constantinople dated 10 June according to which the Captain Pasha left with his
fleet the Dardanelles and joined the Algerian squadron. He was lately cruising
between Scio, Mytelene and Tenedos. The Greeks were bravely for him waiting at
Samos, Hydra, Spezzia and Ipsara. The Captain pasha negotiated with these islands
after as a result of conversations with Captain Hamilton of the British warship
Cambrian.(1) The negotiations are presumably being very difficult considered
the Greek thoughts.
According
to a second item dated Trieste dated 27 June reported a vessel arriving after a
voyage of 19 days from Smirna that the Turkish fleet was sighted off Capo d'Oro
treating all ships which approached her hostile as being afraid for Greek fire
ships.
