London, Saturday, October...
The French papers Qf Wednesday, which arrived last tight, give us no further information respecting the affairs of the Easr, and contain no confirmation of the reported victory of the Greeks at Samos. WYe are therefore still uanable to express more than a wish that the news may be tme. The following are extracts from the Moniteur and Etoile:- IFrom the Maniteur.-Official Part.] " PARIS, OCT. 5.

The confu.ion wilich prevails in a day of baule is beyond description. These stupid lilussdlmen, to whom some jootnals of Germn'iy,'and. even of France, generously attribute chivalrous qualities, derive all their courage in the sight of the etlemy from an imnmoderate rise of opiuu. '.'' From the C'aptain to the meanret iailor, or artilleryman, they are afl drunk; or rather infhriat&ei. Provided they hear the cannon make a great nioise, and see a thick s-noke, they are persuaded-that all goes on -well. It is pretty much the same by land. In trttli,'we may obs?rve thatt out of 20 actions in a campaign, the Greeks will be conquerors in 19, though with inferior forces. It is only neceavry to fight in very close order, and fire as near sliasSibie. The barba- rians2 will never make any inpreexion on a well-exercised.b oflot; thiey will come to be slaughtered like brute beasts ; that is their whole merit. Their cavalry, ivhicl il so iighily spoken of, has never ventured to make a single serious charge. "'It is beyond all doubt that nego titions have been several times entered into to obtain a squadron from the United States in exchange for some island in the Archipelago that might suit them. The inexplicable manner in which the European Powers abran. l don these untornunatc Christians may lead to the conclusion of a treaty witit an amnbitions republic in the new world, and thie Catbi- nets will laiment their fault wherr it is too late; yet history holds out to them great and salutary lessons.'
