Total destruction of the combined Tutkishand Egyptian Fleet. Ey the Schooner -Glide, Captain Bac- tram, frnm New York, tve tuve been po litely favored with New York papers to Tuesday last, which contained highly im portant news, received by ibe William Thomson, from Liverpool, whence she sailed on the 20th uh. A blow has been struck, and Greece will be free. The London Cornier of the 10th Nov. says— We have this day to announce another splendid triumph achieved bv the British Navv, which we trust, will not be the less gratifying fo tpublic, because it has been performed in conjunction with our Allies, and for the protection of the uiiuf- Jending population <d Giper . ' Despatches were tins morning received at the Admiralty, announcin'./ a brilliant victory obtained on the 20tlt October, in the Port of Navarino, by the English French and Russian Squadrons, over the combined Turkish and Egyptian fleets. The battle was fought at anchor and was necessarily bloody and destructive- The numerical superiority of the Ottoman force was immense, but the result has been, we are proud to say. the entire des truction of the whole Turkish force. We have received in a private letter, the following statement of Hue conflicting forces, arid of the result :—• English Force,—Three sail of the line, lour frigates one corvette, and three brigs. French Force,—Three sail of the line, two frigates, and two schooners. - Russian Force,—Four sail of the line, four Frigales. Total of the Allies—2.6 sail. 2'urkish Force— Three sail of th» line, four double frigates, nineteen frigates ; twenty-four corvettes, fourteen brigs, six fire ships. Total 70 sail. There were besides, about forty trans ports, and other vessels formed behind the Turkish fleet. The icsult is: ong Tur kish line of battle ship burned ; two driv en on shore, wrecks ; one double frigate sunk, one on shore a wreck ; one burned ; fifteen frigates burnt and sunk, three on shore wrecks ; one on shore, mast stand ing one on shore, masts standing—six fire- shins destroyed, and three.transports. So that it appears, that the whole seven ty voxels r.f *ar. only eJ-ht of the small er classes were afloat, which is prohablv to be accounted for from their small draft of water, enabling them to haul in close under the batteries ashore, and which ap pear to have heenVerv favorable. We regret fo sav, that the loss of the Allies has been mmsideraltfe, though no thing like what might have been expected from the numetical superiority of the ene my, and the obstmacy of the conflict. We understand that the British loss has been about /0 kdlt/d and 180 wounded.— The only officer of high rank killed, was Gapt. Bathurst, of the Genoa. The French squadron lost about 40 killed and i40 wounded. We have not heard the loss of the Rusianf. It is stated that affairs were brought to this crisis hy the faith and crueltv of Ibra him Pacha, who finding that he would not be allowed to commit naval hostilities, re solved, in defiance of the armistice, and in breach of his solemn promises, to wreak ’•is vengeance on the whole Groek popu lation ; and this savage determination he was carrying into effect, by burning lous es, destroying agriculture and trees, and even ma'ssacreing women and children. The papers are full of news and con jectures on tlrs important event. Ibra him Pacha is carrying fire and sword through Morea. Wc have no doubt from our knowledge of the Turkish character, that the most frightful massacres wil' fol low ; but they will he rpvenged ; and nro- bablv, the whole Turkish force finally destroyed. Nothing hut this step could have ended tlte war. The event has iirea.tiij gre.ia cr>nsatjnn throttpFoui Europe and we wait with anx'etv to bear how it has been received in Constantinople. It is stated, in letters from Y ienna of 5th November, that the Austrian Inter- nuncio at Constantinople, had transmitted to h s government a proposition from the Sultan tfiat Austria should become the mediator in the discussions going on be tween bint aud the three allied powers', and that the assent of Austria to this proposition had b“en formally cnmimiiii- as the Count who has been President elect for some months seizes this favorable moment to embark, and place himself at the head of the nation. The French papers stated that the Am bassadors from the three powers, had ef fected their escape from Constantinople. On the other hand,the latest eccounts from Constantinople, 20ih Oct. represented the negociafions as still proceeding,—and under the saspicies of the Austrain Am bassador. The Kiog of England, as a mark of high approval of the conduct of the officers, seamen and marines at Navarino, has con ferred upon Vice Admiral Codrington a Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath— nominating at the same time all the cap tains and commanders who shared in the honor of the day to he Knights Comman ders ofihat iftost honorable order. The Turkish and Egyptian Fleet de stroyed. London Gazette Extraordinary, of Non. 10.—Admiralty Oijice Nor. 10. 1827. Despatches of which the follow- ingare copies or extracts, have been this day received at this office addressed to John Wilson Croker, Esq. by, Vice Ad miral Sir Edward Codrington K. C. B. Commander in Chief of his Majesty’s »b ip«in ihe Mediterranean. Ihs Majesty's ship Asia, in the Port of Navarino Oct.. 21, 1827.—Sir—I have the honor of informing his Royal High ness the Lord High Admiral, that my colleagues Count Hayden and Chevalier] de Rigny, having agreed with me that we should come into this poit, in order to in duce Ibrahim Pacha to discontinue the brutal war of extermnation, which he has been carrying on since his return here from his failure in the Gulp!) of Patras, the combined squadrons passed the bat teries, in order to take their anchorage, at about two obdock yesterday afternoon. The Turkish ships were moored in the form of a crescent, with springs on their cables, the larger ones presenting their broadsides towards the centre, the stnal! ones in succession within them filling up their intervals. The combined fleet was formed in tire order of sailing in two columns,t^eB ritish and French, forming the weather or star- bord line, and the Russian the lee line. T he Asia led in, follow ed by the Genoa and Albion, and anchored close alongside a ship of the line, bearing the flag of the Capitana Bay, another ship of the line, and a large doubled banked frigate, each thus having their proper opponent in the from line, of the Turkish fleet. The four ships to tviirdward part of the Egyptian squad ron, were allotted to the squadron of Rear Admiral do Rignv, and those to leeward, in the bight of this crescent were to mark the stations of the wholeRussian squadron; ships o| their line closing those of the En- ifsel* at Its termination was such as nas been seldom witnessed. As each ship of our opponents became effectually disabled such of her crew as could escape from her endeavored to set it on fire, and it is won- nerful how we avoided the effects of their successive aud awful explosions. It is impossible for me to say too mueli for the able and zealous assistance which I derived from Captain Curzon through out this long and ardent contest; nor can I say more than it deserves for the con duct of Commander Baynes and the offi cers and crew of the Asia, for the perfec tion with which the fire of their guns was directed ; each vessel in turn, to which her broadside was presented became a com plete wreck.—His Royal Highness will be awaie that so complete a victory by a few however perfect, against an excessive number however individually inferior can not b'e acquired but at a considerable sa crifice of life : accordingly I have to la ment the loss of Capt. Bathrust of the Genoa, whose example on this occasion j is well worthy the imitation of his survi- ! vors. Capt. Bell, commanding the Royal I Marines of the Asia, an sxcellent officer,; was killed early in the action in the stea- 1 dy performance of his dutv and I have to ; mourn the death of Mr William Smith, the j Master, admired for the zeal and ability ft officers wer'e made pr&ouers" but thfi Colonel was absent and escaped. Mr. GILMER presented the petition of Richard Henry Wilde, of Georgia, asking for the cancelling of a bond given by him to export from the United States certain captured Africans. [This memorial is so interesting, and based upon such honorable motives, that we shall endeavor to lay it before our readers entire.] Mr. P. P. BARBOUR, from the Committee on the Judiciary, reported a bill for the relief of Geueral Thomas Flournoy, of Georgia ; which was made ' the order of the day for to-morrow. On motion of Mr. DRAYTON, i: was | Resolved, That the Committee on com- merce be instructed to enquire into the ! expediency of authorizing the Secretary ! of the Treasury to have public ware-hou- ' ses erected in the principal commercial ci'ies of the United States. Resolved, That the same Committee be instructed to inquire into the expediency of permitting drawbacks to be allowed on any parts of such packages as may be de posited in the public ware-houses, which are under the charge of tho Revenue Officers of the United States. Mr. GILMER of Georgia, stated, • , , • , i , i • i . , , that he had been directed, by the Legis- witli which he executed his dutv, and be-1. - . loved bv all for his private qualities as a , glish line, and hein? followed up bv their ' f-een corvettes burned and sunk ; j own frigates. The French frigate Armide was directed to place herself along side the outermost frigate on tho left hand en tering the harbor; and the Carnbrain Glasgow, and Talbot next to her, and a- brest of the Asia, Genoa and Albion ; the Dartmouth and Musquitto, the Rose the Brisk, and the Philomel were to look after the six fire vessels at the entrance of the harbor. I gave orders that no guns should be fired unless guns were first fired by the 1 urks; and those orders were strictly ob served. The three English ships were accord ingly permitted to pass the batteries to moor, as they did with great rapidity, without any act of open'hostility, although there was evident preparation for it on board all the Turkish ships; but upon the Dartmouth sending a boat to one of the fire vessels, Lieut. G. W. M. Fitzroy, and several of her crew were shot with mus ketry. This produced a defensive fire of musketry from the Dartmouth and La Sv- rene, bearing the flag of Rear Admiral de Rigny. That was succeeded bv a can non shot at the Rear Admiral from one of the Turkish ships, which, of course, hro’t on a leturn, and thus very shortly after wards, the battle became general. The Asia, although placed alongside of the ship of the Capitana Bev, was even near* ei to that of Moharew Bev, the comman der ol the Egyptian ships ; and since Iiis ships did not fire at the Asia, although the action was begun to windward, neither did the Asia fire at her. The latter in deed sent a message “that he would not fire at all ’and therefore no hostility took place between our two ships for some time after the Asia had returned the fire of the Capitana Bev. In the mean time, however, our excel lent pilot, Mr. Peter Mitchell, who went to interpret-to Moharem mv desire to »- v»id bloodshed, was killed by his people in our boat alongside. Whether with or without his order I know not; But his ship soon afterwards fired into 'the Asia and was consequently effectually destroy ed by the Ask’s fire, sharing the same fate as his brother Admiral on the starboard side, and fdllng to leeward a mere wreck. These ships being out of the way, the A- sia became exposed to all raking fire from man. Mr. Heniy S. Dyer. my.Secretary having received a severe contusion from a splinter, I" am deprived temporarily of his valuable assistance in collecting and keeping up the general returns and com munications of the squadrons : I shall therefore retain in my office, Mr E. J. T. White his 1st Clerk whom I have nomina ted to succeed the purser of the Brisk. I feel much personal obligation to the Hon. Lieut. Col. Craddock, his readiness during the heat of tke battle in carrying my orders and messages to the different quarters after my Aids de Camp were disabled ; but I will beg permission to re fer his Royal Highness for further parti culars of this sort to the details of the kill ed and wounded, a subject which it is painful for me to dwell upon ; when I con template, as I do with extreme sorrow the extent of our loss, I console myself with the reflection, that the measures which produced the battle were absolutely necessary for obtaining the results contem plated by the Treaty and that it was brought on entirely by our opponents. When I found that the boasted Otto man word of honor was made a sacrifice to wanton savage devastation and that a base advantage was taken of our reliance upon Ibrahim’s good faith, I felt a desire to punish the offenders. But -it was mv duty to refrain, and refrain I did : and I can assure your Royal Highness, that I would have avoided this disasterous ex tremity, if other means had been open to me. The Asia, Genoa and Albion, have each suffered so much, that it is my in tention t'o send them to England as soon as they shall have received the necessary repairs for their voyage. The Talbot, being closely engaged with a double bank ed frigate, has also suffered considerably, as well as others of the smaller vessels ; but I hope their defects are no more than can be made .good at Malta. The loss of men in the Turko-Egyptian ships must have been immense, as his Royal High ness will see by the accompanying list obtained from the Secretary of the Cap- itania Bev, which includes that of two out of the three ships to which the English division was opposed. Capt Cruzon hav ing preferred continuing to assist me in the Asia, I have given the charge of my despatches to Commander, Lord Viscount Tngestrp, who besides having had a bril liant share in the action, is well competent to give his Royal Highness the Lord High Admiral any further particulars he may require. I enclose, for His Royal Highness fur ther information, a letter from Captain Hamilton descriptive of the proceeding of Ibrahim Pacha, and the misery of the country which he has devastated—a proto col of a conference which I had with my colleagues & rhe pla ing the port lature of that State, to move the following resolution ; Resolved, That the Committee of Ways j and Means be instructed to inquire into j the propriety of making an appropriation ■ to defray the expences of copying the; documents and papers in the Plantation j Office, and other Public Offices, in En gland, relating to the early history of of Georgia. At the suggestion of Mr. WIIIPPLE, the resolution was modified by the mover, so as to include “Jthe other States.” Mr. WILLIAMS inquired who were to be employed in making the proposed copies from the British records, and what would be the probable expense of them. Mr. GILMER replied, that, on these subjects he was no farther informed than the gentleman himself: he had been di rected by the Legislature of his State to offer the resolution, and he presumed, out of respect for that State, the inquiry would be permitted. The resolution was then adopted. Mr. MITCHELL, of Tennessee, sub mitted ihe following. Resolved, That the Committee on In dian Aiiairs be instructed to inquire into the expediency and practicability of es tablishing some mode by which all the In dians East of the Mississippi River may be immediately and gradually removed beyond or West of said River, and £a sufficiency ofland attached to each tribe and secured to such tribe or tribes, with the sovereignty or right of soil, in the same manner, and to the same extent, that the right of domain is secured to the respective States of the Union; and there to estab lish a Territorial Government over them, of the same kind, and regulated bv the same rules, that the Territories of the United States are now governed; and that, if the said Committee cannot devise any plan tlrat shall be just and magnani mous, on the part of the United States, to attain that end, that they shall then in quire into the right and expediency of extending the laws, municipal regulations of the United States, and, also of the seve ral States wherein said Indians resibe, o- ver them. On a suggestion of Mr. LUMPKIN that the subject was already before the Committee on Indian Affairs, the resolu tion was, on motion of Mr. MITCH ELL, laid on the table. Amendments to the Constitution. Mr. SMITH submitted the following : Resolved, That the following amend ments to the Constitution of the United States be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States, which when ratified by three-fourths thereof, shall be a part of the said Constitution : 1, After the third day of March, on,e thousand eight hundred and twenty-nine, *3. Alter the third day of March, one thousand eight hundred and twenty nine, no Senator or Representative shall, during the time for which he was elected, be ap pointed to any office or employment under the authority ot the United States. 4. When the House of Representatives shall choose a President, no person, who shall have been a member of that House at the time of making the choice, shall du ring the continuance in office of the Pres ident so chosen, be appointed to anv off ice or employment under the authority of the United States. This proposition was read, and com mitted to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union. Mr. M’DUFFIE Submitted the follow ing ; Resolved, That it is expedient that the Constitution of the U. S. be so a- mended as to prevent the election of President and Vice President from de volving on the respective Houses of Con gress. Resolved, That the People of the res pective States, entitled to vote for the most numerous branch of the Legislature, ought to be invested with the privilege of voting, directly', for the aforesaid officers; each State giving as many electoral votes as will equal the number of Senators and Representatives to which such State may be entitled in Congress. Resolved, That the Constitution ought i to be so amended as to provide some uni- | form mode by which the qualified voters, | aforesaid, shall give the electoral votes in the respective States. Resolved, That it is expedient that the votes should be given, in the respective States, h-y a general ticket. Resolved, That the several states ought to be divided into Electoral Distriots, for the purpose of voting for President and Vice President. Resolved, That a Committee be ap pointed to draw up an amendment of the Constitution, in conformity with the fore going resolutions. This proposition was read, and com mitted to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union. AUGUSTA. THURSDAY, DEC. 27, 1827. tie, czc. quence. I have the honor ( signed) E CODRINGTON.
